Notable Predictions

Pittsburgh Steelers Expose Tennessee Titans Secondary

The Steelers will play five of their final seven games at home, which bodes well for a team that struggles against lesser competition on the road.

We should consider the Tennessee Titans a serious contender with quarterback Marcus Mariota regaining his mobility in the pocket. However, head coach Mike Mularkey's group draws a bad matchup in Week 11.

The Titans allowed 261 passing yards to Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco, which goes down as a season high for him. In Week 10, Cincinnati Bengals signal-caller Andy Dalton logged his third-highest passing yards total (265) against Tennessee.

If the Titans had issues keeping Flacco and Dalton under wraps, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger should find success racking up yards with Antonio Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Martavis Bryant and Le'Veon Bell catching passes.

Minnesota Vikings Limit Los Angeles Rams' Explosive Offense

Everyone loves a good story. What better narrative than the No. 1 overall pick from the 2016 draft flourishing in an offense led by Sean McVay, the youngest head coach in the league at 31 years old?

In addition, the Rams, once again, have a potent offense. Though, it doesn't compare to the greatest show on turf when quarterback Kurt Warner and wideouts Torry Holt and Isaac Bruce wore the uniform.

When facing tougher defenses, quarterback Jared Goff hasn't looked as sharp. He registered a combined two touchdowns and two interceptions against the Washington Redskins, Seahawks and Jacksonville Jaguars—the Rams went 1-2 in those games.

Until Goff shows his ability to dissect formidable pass defenses, it's hard to trust him against one of the top units in the league. The Vikings surrendered 327 passing yards to quarterback Kirk Cousins in the previous week, but you should consider that a blip, not a trend.

Expect Minnesota to hold Goff to fewer than 250 passing yards and one touchdown. The Vikings also field a top-five run defense to handle running back Todd Gurley on the ground.

Atlanta Falcons Attack Seattle Seahawks Pass Defense in MNF Matchup

There's too much going on with the Seahawks to trust them at home against the Falcons.

First, we have to see how the pass defense fares without cornerback Richard Sherman who tore his Achilles' tendon in a Week 9 matchup with the Arizona Cardinals. Safety Earl Thomas has missed the previous two games with a hamstring injury, but head coach Pete Carroll expects him to play on Monday, John Boyle of Seahawks.com:

Secondly, Seattle's offense continues to go through a transition that heavily relies on the passing attack without much help on the ground. After a spectacular showing against the Houston Texans in Week 8, the Seahawks have averaged 18 points in the last two games.

Now likely without a stingy pass defense, opposing teams can potentially win shootouts against the Seahawks with enough offensive weapons.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen, running back Devonta Freeman seems doubtful to play, but Atlanta has enough firepower to pull out a tight victory against a depleted secondary.
