Minnesota Vikings (2-1) at Pittsburgh Steelers (2-1)

Sunday, 9:30 a.m. ET (in Dublin)

FanDuel odds: Vikings -2.5, Total 40.5

Series Rewind: Sunday is the first leg of an international double-dip for the Vikings. Minnesota plays the Browns in London next week. The Vikings are 4-0 in international games, most wins without a loss among NFL clubs.

Minnesota is making the two-city tour of Europe and the AFC North starting with the first-ever NFL regular-season game in Dublin. Head coach Kevin O'Connell raised a glass to backup Carson Wentz for his play as the fill-in starter for J.J. McCarthy last week and handed Wentz a second start. McCarthy is dealing with a high-ankle sprain, and Wentz -- starting for his sixth team in the past six seasons -- is backed by a strong running game and high-performing defense that produced two touchdowns last week to bury the Bengals. Pittsburgh's vaunted defense did enough to get a win at New England last week but hasn't discovered its usual game-changing footing in the early portion of the schedule. Minnesota continues to shuffle the offensive line with left guard Blake Brandel breaking into the front five, making for a third different alignment in four games. Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers has preferred RB Jaylen Warren in the passing game. He's the leader on the roster with 11 receptions for 142 and has 43 carries for a team-best 132 yards. While Rodgers said this week he's excited to be at the home of beer brand Guinness, he'll get brain tests from Vikings coordinator Brian Flores. Rodgers has had plenty of big games in 29 starts and 30 total appearances against the Vikings in his career. Rodgers has 7,401 passing yards, 63 TDs (59 passes), 11 interceptions and a 105.4 passer rating all-time facing the Vikings.

Cleveland Browns (1-2) at Detroit Lions (2-1)

Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Lions -9.5, Total 44.5

Series Rewind: Lions QB Jared Goff is tied for the NFL lead with a passer rating of 100-plus in 22 games since 2023.

The Lions have ratcheted up the offense with 90 points and 937 yards while winning the past two weeks. They put up 224 rushing yards -- including a career-high 151 from David Montgomery -- in Monday's 38-30 victory over the Baltimore Ravens. The sledding will be tougher against the Browns, who lead the league in rushing defense (57.3 yards per game) and total defense (204.3). Of course, Myles Garrett (four sacks) promises to keep Goff on his toes. Goff has completed a league-best 77.9 percent of his passes and is tied for second with seven passing touchdowns. Lions star wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown is tied for the league lead with four scoring receptions. Cleveland's offense isn't scaring anyone with Joe Flacco being an underwhelming starter. The 40-year-old is undefeated in three career starts against the Lions. But he has thrown four interceptions this season and the Browns rank 30th in scoring offense (15.3). Protecting Flacco will be a big need against a Lions defense that racked up seven sacks against Ravens elusive star Lamar Jackson. Browns rookie running back Quinshon Judkins flashed some skills with 94 yards and a score in last week's 13-10 win over the Green Bay Packers.

Carolina Panthers (1-2) vs. New England Patriots (1-2)

Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Patriots -5.5, Total 43.5

Series Rewind: This will mark the ninth meeting with the all-time series split 4-4. The Patriots won the most important game in the series, defeating Carolina on Adam Vinatieri's last-second field goal for a 32-29 Lombardi-clincher in Super Bowl XXXVIII in 2004.

Carolina enters this road trip to New England with some confidence coming off a 30-0 shutout of Atlanta for its first win of the season and first shutout since 2020. Bryce Young had only a rushing TD last week, but also delivered his first turnover-free game of the season after throwing three picks and fumbling twice in the first two games. WR Tetairoa McMillan is still looking for his first TD, but he does lead all rookies in receiving yards (216). He didn't practice Wednesday with a calf injury and was limited Thursday. Patriots QB Drake Maye, who grew up in the Charlotte area, will face his hometown team for the first time this week. He has five TD passes to two interceptions with a 101.3 passer rating and is also tied for the team lead with 87 rushing yards. New England's defense has held its first three opponents to 181 rushing yards (second fewest in the league) and could get a boost this week with All-Pro cornerback Christian Gonzalez trending toward possibly making his season debut vs. Carolina.

Philadelphia Eagles (3-0) vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-0)

Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Eagles -3.5, Total 44.5

Series Rewind: In their past 25 games, including the playoffs, the Eagles are 0-2 against the Buccaneers and 21-2 against the rest of the league.

The only NFL matchup of unbeaten teams this week is an early battle for NFC supremacy. The cardiac Bucs are the first team in the Super Bowl era to open a season with game-winning scores in three straight games in the final minute of regulation. The swashbuckling Baker Mayfield made the Eagles walk the plank in their last visit to the Pirate Ship in Week 4 last season, throwing for 347 yards and with three TDs (two passing, one rushing) in a 33-16 win. The Eagles were without top receivers DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown in that loss. In this game, Mayfield will be without star wideout Mike Evans (hamstring) on Sunday but slot receiver Chris Godwin, out since last October with a nasty ankle injury, is expected to be available. The Eagles pulled off their own stunner last weekend, rallying from 19 down in the second half to beat the Rams. Off to a slow start, Saquon Barkley needs 173 scrimmage yards to hit 10,000 for his career. Philadelphia's passing game has been lightly used and produced an average of just 146.7 yards through three games.

Washington Commanders (2-1) vs. Atlanta Falcons (1-2)

Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Commanders -1.5, Total 45.5

Series Rewind: After losing six consecutive games to Atlanta from 2006-18, the pigskin pendulum has swung in Washington's favor with four straight wins in the 2020s.

Commanders coach Dan Quinn returns to Atlanta, where he compiled a 43-42 record from 2015-20 as head coach. It's worth noting that the Falcons are 34-48 since firing Quinn after their 0-5 start in 2020. He will face a languid Atlanta offense that was blanked 30-0 by Carolina last weekend and has scored three or fewer points in eight of 12 quarters so far. Only two of seven trips to the red zone have resulted in a touchdown. Michael Penix got benched for Kirk Cousins against the Panthers but Penix has played well at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where he looks for his third straight home game of 295-plus passing yards with at least one passing and one rushing TD. The Commanders are going back to ex-Falcons quarterback Marcus Mariota with Jayden Daniels (knee) ruled out and set to miss a second consecutive game with a knee injury. Mariota (5-8 as the Falcons' starter in 2022) will join Quinn on the Atlanta reunion tour. Wide receiver Terry McLaurin is out with a quad injury.

New Orleans Saints (0-3) at Buffalo Bills (3-0)

Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Bills -15.5, Total 48.5

Series Rewind: Winless in nine career starts, Saints QB Spencer Rattler is the only quarterback with 25-plus completions in every game this season.

Kellen Moore heads to Buffalo still chasing his first win as a head coach but New Orleans is facing a tall order. The biggest underdog on the board this week at more than two touchdowns, the Saints will face a Bills team still without injured DT Ed Oliver and LB Matt Milano. Rattler completed more than 70 percent of his passes in each of the past two games and hasn't hampered the Saints with decision-making. But New Orleans is missing the big-play elements to throw punches with heavy-hitting Buffalo. WR Chris Olave's 10 receptions went for 57 yards last week at Seattle. The Bills lead the NFL in total offense and rushing yards, and reigning NFL MVP Josh Allen is looking to extend Buffalo's home winning streak to 14 games. Allen hasn't thrown an interception in 11 of his past 12 starts and has been content in the pocket with teams altering their approach to slow down RB James Cook. Cook is one of four NFL players with at least 100 yards from scrimmage in every game this season.

Tennessee Titans (0-3) at Houston Texans (0-3)

Sunday, 1 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Texans -7.5, Total 38.5

Series Rewind: Tennessee has won three of its past four games at Houston. Rookie quarterbacks are 2-7 against Houston head coach DeMeco Ryans.

Quarterbacks coach Bo Hardegree takes over play-calling duties for the Titans, who are struggling to sustain drives and protect No. 1 pick Cam Ward. He's ready for Sunday but was limited by a lower-leg injury to begin the week. Houston's defense has teeth and a pass rush capable of collapsing the Titans' offensive line, which will again be without starting OT J.C. Latham (hip). The Titans have averaged just 3.6 yards per play, worst in the NFL, putting Ward in third-and-long situations and in harm's way too often. The Texans changed offensive coordinators and have yet to leave the runway in 2025. C.J. Stroud has two touchdowns and three interceptions, and Houston ranks 28th or lower in the NFL in yards per game, points per game and third-down percentage. Offensive line changes are not working out. LT Laremy Tunsil was traded to the Commanders and Stroud has not had time to plant and throw in critical passing situations, muting the big-play ability of WR Nico Collins. Collins and Titans CB L'Jarius Sneed became a more compelling watch this week when Sneed asked "Who?" in response to a reporter's question about contending with the wideout. Stroud has a 105.6 passer rating on attempts intended for Collins in 2025. His rating is 65.8 when targeting any other player.

Chicago Bears (1-2) at Las Vegas Raiders (1-2)

Sunday, 4:05 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Raiders -1.5, Total 47.5

Series Rewind: The Bears beat the Raiders 30-12 in 2023, their last meeting, and have wins in three of the past four matchups.

A faster start to the game is a vital part of the plan for the Bears, who scored a 31-14 win -- the first of the Ben Johnson era -- last week and play four of their next five games on the road. This week they visit the Raiders, who also are 1-2 under new coach Pete Carroll. In the first three games with Johnson at the helm, Chicago has scored 28 first-quarter points, tied for tops in the league and one more than they managed in 17 games last season. Caleb Williams passed for 298 yards and four touchdowns last week. Williams spread the ball -- and scoring passes -- to receivers Luther Burden III, Rome Odunze, DJ Moore and tight end Cole Kmet while compiling a career-best passer rating of 142.6. Las Vegas rarely blitzes but has a streak of 38 consecutive games with a QB sack. Raiders defensive tackle Jonah Laulu leads the team with three, but Johnson especially is concerned about end Maxx Crosby, a four-time Pro Bowl selection. Las Vegas gained 354 yards while leaning into a special connection between quarterback Geno Smith and receiver Tre Tucker. Smith completed 19 of 29 passes for 289 yards and three scores, all to Tucker, who gained 145 yards on eight receptions. Smith has passed for 831 yards through three games, second in the NFL, while throwing for four touchdowns against four interceptions. Las Vegas is aiming to shore up its running game. Rookie Ashton Jeanty was hit at or behind the line of scrimmage on 11 of 17 carries against Washington. Las Vegas' Brock Bowers is planning to play while nursing an ailing knee.

Indianapolis Colts (3-0) vs. Los Angeles Rams (2-1)

Sunday, 4:05 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Rams -3.5, Total 49.5

Series Rewind: Indianapolis leads the all-time series 23-21-2 but has lost the past four games against the Rams, last beating them when they were still in St. Louis in 2009.

Almost unrecognizable in his ability to function and even flourish in the face of pass-rush pressure, Indianapolis QB Daniel Jones has kept things rolling for the Colts' high-powered offense. He's third in the league in passing yards (816) and the offense ranks second in total offense (418.7 yards/game) and scoring offense (34.3 points/game). Jones is the only QB in the league with 225-plus yards, a touchdown pass and no interceptions in each of the first three games this season. He's supplemented by Jonathan Taylor, who leads the league in rushing yards (338). This game appeared likely to be a battle of 3-0 teams before Los Angeles blew a 19-point lead last week at Philadelphia. The Rams defense, tied for the league lead with 12 sacks and fifth in total defense (268.3) allowed three second-half touchdown passes. WR Puka Nacua leads the league in catches (29) and receiving yards (333) early this season.

Jacksonville Jaguars (2-1) vs. San Francisco 49ers (3-0)

Sunday, 4:05 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: 49ers -3.5, Total 46.5

Series Rewind: San Francisco leads the all-time series 5-2, and has won the past five games and each of its two home games vs. Jacksonville.

San Francisco is just one of six unbeaten teams left, but enters this game battered and bruised. Starting QB Brock Purdy (left shoulder, toe) and his backup, Mac Jones (knee) were limited in practice. Jones said he'll be ready to play while Purdy gave a less definitive answer but his mobility was improved. Whoever starts could have a somewhat limited pool of skill-position players available. Tight end George Kittle (hamstring) and receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) remain out while receivers Jauan Jennings and Jordan Watkins have not practiced this week and Ricky Pearsall has been limited. Jacksonville's defense has held opposing offenses without a touchdown until the fourth quarter in two of its first three games this season. Arik Armstead (1.5 sacks) will be facing his former team for the first time after spending his first nine seasons in San Francisco. Cornerback Jourdan Lewis recorded his second pick of the season last week and leads the league with six pass breakups.

Baltimore Ravens (1-2) at Kansas City Chiefs (1-2)

Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Ravens -2.5, Total 48.5

Series Rewind: The Chiefs have won five of the past six meetings in the series.

The loser of these two AFC powerhouse teams will be saddled with a 1-3 record so playoff-type intensity could be unleashed. The Chiefs have struggled to score -- they are tied for 21st in scoring offense at 20 points per game -- while Baltimore can score but can't seem to stop anyone. The Ravens average a league-high 37 points per game but rank 31st in scoring defense (32.0 points per outing) and last in total defense (415.0 yards). In Monday's 38-30 loss to the Detroit Lions, Baltimore allowed a stunning 224 yards on the ground. Patrick Mahomes leads Kansas City with 125 rushing yards so there shouldn't be a repeat. Mahomes would like to get points earlier against the Ravens as slow starts have been an issue this season. The 22-9 win over the New York Giants last weekend represents Kansas City's best point total of the season. Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson has thrown a league-high nine touchdown passes, is first with a 141.8 passer rating and hasn't been intercepted. Ravens star running back Derrick Henry is fourth in the NFL with 242 rushing yards but his three fumbles (two lost) have tarnished his solid start.

Green Bay Packers (2-1) at Dallas Cowboys (1-2)

Sunday, 8:20 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Packers -6.5, Total 47.5

Series Rewind: Green Bay has never lost at AT&T Stadium. The Packers have won seven of the past eight meetings.

You might have heard the Packers are coming to Dallas and bringing an old friend to visit the Cowboys. Micah Parsons, the NFL leader in pass-rush pressures and the only player in the league with eight-plus pressures in multiple games this season, has a new crew and it includes the league leader in sacks (Rashan Gary, 4.5). Green Bay gives up 16 fewer points per game than the Cowboys (30.7) and arrives angry after laying an egg -- much gentler terms than Parsons used -- at Cleveland in a 13-10 loss last week. Dak Prescott is playing at a high level but Dallas went scoreless in the second half of both losses. CeeDee Lamb (ankle) won't play this week and the Cowboys are down key personnel on the offensive line. The shuffled starting 11 on offense features George Pickens as the No. 1 wide receiver; TE Jake Ferguson (13 catches last week) will have a bigger share of the play-call sheet this week, according to coach Brian Schottenheimer. Dallas' best weapon has been the ground game with a rejuvenated Javonte Williams averaging 4.7 yards per carry. Jordan Love is also behind a modified blocking scheme because of injuries. Against a Dallas front adding Jadeveon Clowney, Love figures to let it fly after the Cowboys' pass defense was roasted by the Giants and Bears.

Cincinnati Bengals (2-1) vs. Denver Broncos (1-2)

Monday, 7:15 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Broncos -7.5, Total 43.5

Series Rewind: It's their fourth meeting on "Monday Night Football," with the Bengals winning in 2004 and 2014 and the Broncos victorious in Week 16 of their Super Bowl season in 2015.

It's a rematch of last season's Week 17 thriller, when Broncos QB Bo Nix tied it with a 25-yard TD to Marvin Mims Jr. with eight seconds left in regulation, only to fall 30-24 on Joe Burrow's short TD pass to Tee Higgins with 1:07 left in overtime. This time, Burrow-less Cincinnati limps into Denver still smarting from the most lopsided loss in franchise history: 48-10 last weekend at Minnesota. Despite their winning record, the Bengals have been outscored 91-58 and have more turnovers (eight) than touchdowns (seven). They'll need a whopper from Ja'Marr Chase, who has 43 catches for 585 yards and five TDs in four appearances on "MNF." Nix is 6-0 with a 102.6 rating in his last six home starts for the Broncos. J.K. Dobbins has rushed 33 times for 294 yards (8.9 average) and four TDs against the Bengals while going 4-0 in his career.

New York Jets (0-3) at Miami Dolphins (0-3)

Monday, 7:15 p.m. ET

FanDuel odds: Dolphins -2.5, Total 44.5

Series Rewind: Miami is 4-1 in the past five games against the Jets, who claimed a 32-20 win in the 2024 regular-season finale.

The loser will be looking at an 0-4 start and the knowledge it is OK to start focusing on 2026 draft preparations. Miami badly needs to win this contest or coach Mike McDaniel will see the heat pick up. The Dolphins have allowed more than 30 points in each of their three games, and the offensive precision has dipped. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has thrown five touchdown passes but has been picked off four times. Tyreek Hill is averaging 13.2 yards per catch but has just 198 receiving yards. Linebacker Bradley Chubb always goes all-out and has three of the team's six sacks. The Jets might be going with Tyrod Taylor for the second straight week after fellow quarterback Justin Fields sustained a concussion in Week 2. Taylor helped New York overcome a 17-point fourth-quarter deficit last week before the Tampa Bay Buccaneers walked it off with a 29-27 victory. Receiver Garrett Wilson (229 on 21 catches) is the only Jet with more than 80 yards or in double digits in receptions. Putting LB Quincy Williams (shoulder) on injured reserve is a blow for the Jets' defense.
