Projecting Every NFL Team's Starting Lineup 🔮

Rookie WRs Who Will Outplay Their Draft Value 📈
On paper, this game looks like a no-brainer with Ravens QB Joe Flacco being 4-1 against the 1-5 Jaguars.
However, if you dig deeper, you'll see Jacksonville plays much better at home, has played a ridiculously tough schedule, and possesses a solid defense (No. 8 against the pass, No. 19 against the rush).
They also have the No. 10-ranked rushing offense, and despite being one dimensional, RB Maurice Jones-Drew almost hit the 100-yard mark against Pittsburgh.
Sure Baltimore has a great defense, but Jones-Drew will get his and Flacco's opportunities will be limited.
In addition, the Ravens only rank No. 13 in passing offense, so during those chances, Flacco will have trouble against a tough Jaguars pass defense.
3. Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers vs. Washington Redskins
Cam Newton may be playing very well despite the Panthers' record, and they do play better at home than on the road.
This week, though, the hungry Washington Redskins come into town with John Beck under center.
They'll also pit a very tough defense against Newton.
Washington ranked No. 9 and No. 11 against the pass and rush, respectively, so anticipate Cam on the run quite often. The Redskins' defense is much better than Atlanta's, Chicago's, or Arizona's, teams which already defeated Carolina.
Expect Washington to control the clock, since Carolina ranks No. 31 in rush defense. This will keep Newton off the field, which only decreases his odds of playing well, especially with fewer opportunities.
2. Tim Tebow, Denver Broncos at Miami Dolphins
So Denver trades away their best player in All-Pro WR Brandon Lloyd and expects Tim Tebow to carry the offense.
Does that sound right?
Sure it's the 0-5 Miami Dolphins, who couldn't even stop Jets QB Mark Sanchez, but the game is in Miami and the Dolphins are more desperate for a win (not that Denver isn't).
No matter how much pressure Tebow may feel, the Dolphins feel they have a chance in this one as Tim knows he's now the man in Denver.
Also, the Dolphins have nothing to lose so expect their solid No. 12-ranked rush defense to force the Broncos into a long yardage situations.
1. Matt Schaub, Houston Texans at Tennessee Titans
Although Matt Schaub played pretty well against the Ravens on the road, it was clear not having Andre Johnson was devastating.
It doesn't get much easier against Tennessee this week. The Titans are not only coming off a bye, they have a better defense and just as good a rushing attack.
Therefore, expect them to stack the box against Houston's Arian Foster, which will only force Schaub to throw the ball.
In turn, with Johnson out and Kevin Walter and Jacoby Jones as his best receivers, Tennessee will double up on TE Owen Daniels.
Schaub will have another rough day, and the return of Andre Johnson can't come soon enough.
