NFL Picks Week 3: Predicting Scores for All 16 Games

Buffalo's bandwagon might finally make a stop this afternoon, as the surprisingly impressive 2-0 Bills host the always impressive New England Patriots, led by a freakishly efficient Tom Brady.

The Bills scored 41 and 38 points, respectively, in their first two contest. They also bring in a nice formula, leading the league in rushing yards per game.

But, they needed a comeback-shootout to beat Oakland last weekend and New England is an entirely different animal.

Will the Bills find themselves on the top end of another shootout, or will the Patriots give them the usual treatment? The Patriots have a vulnerable pass defense. That might even be an understatement.

Ryan Fitzpatrick could light it up and give us another high scoring, close game. A combination of an impressive rushing attack and the spread out passing game against a lackluster secondary actually appears to bode well.

Today, we will find out if the Bills are for real. 

Other marquee match ups include the Packers vs. Bears, Texans vs. Saints, and Falcons vs. Buccaneers. 

The Bears have shown us two completely different teams so far, as they demolished Atlanta 30-12 in the season opener, only to lose by almost the identical score in the following week in New Orleans.

Houston's team, which is 2-0, will make a huge statement if they can beat Drew Brees and the Saints. They should be without Arian Foster, but a win with Ben Tate and company would open eyes to just how well rounded this team is.

Many think Tampa Bay should have beaten Atlanta twice last year. Many also think the Buccaneers could emerge to be the top team in the NFC South, which is undoubtedly the toughest division.

Atlanta has given up 30 and 31 points in their first two games. Atlanta needs to prove their defense can be productive on the road.
