Welcome to Week 3 of the NFL season, where the action heats up with several intriguing matchups. Here’s a breakdown of the key games and betting insights to consider:

Indianapolis Colts to Cover -3.5 (-105) at Tennessee Titans

Through two games, Daniel Jones' QBR of 80.9 ranks sixth in the NFL. Jones has been efficient with the ball, completing 71.4% of his throws, and the run game with Jonathan Taylor provides both balance and explosive play ability. Give the points here as the Colts aim to go 3-0 with a win over the Titans.

Washington Commanders to Cover -5.5 (-120) vs. Las Vegas Raiders

The Commanders will be back home in D.C. on 10 days rest, a massive advantage over the Raiders, who will be on five days rest after a tough Monday night game. If the Raiders lose to the Chargers, expect this spread to move closer to a full touchdown. Get ahead of that move.

Chicago Bears to Cover -1.5 (-115) vs. Dallas Cowboys

Despite two losses, the Bears' early season struggles may be overstated. Both the Packers and Lions, who beat Chicago, look like top-tier teams. Caleb Williams' accuracy issues have been outside the numbers, but Ben Johnson’s passing game in Detroit focused between the numbers. The Bears could show stronger form against non-NFC North competition.

Houston Texans at Jacksonville Jaguars Total Points UNDER 44.5 (-120)

Houston’s offense struggled in Week 1, and the run game is heavily reliant on Nick Chubb. With injuries at receiver and center, and a new OC still finding rhythm, the Texans may struggle to score. Jacksonville’s ability to grind games down makes the under a solid bet.

Kansas City Chiefs to Cover -5.5 (-120) at New York Giants

Even with their current wide receiver issues, the Chiefs are unlikely to lose to the Giants. While they might not pile on points, a scoreline like 16-10 would still cover the spread.

Atlanta Falcons to Cover -3.5 (-110) at Carolina Panthers

The Falcons’ running game dominated the Vikings, and their defense recorded six sacks. Injuries to the Panthers' offensive line could make matters worse for Carolina. Despite a 2-4 record against the spread in their last six games against the Panthers, the Falcons have the edge in this matchup.
