Indianapolis Colts (-2.5) at Jacksonville Jaguars (Game in London)

We know by now that the London game in the NFL is a mess every single year. Even if it plays out according to the script in terms of result, it’s never pretty. So when you have an underperforming and winless Jaguars team facing the fraudulent Colts, you know that’s again going to be the case.

However, the one thing that we do know is that both of these teams have the capability of putting points on the board. And considering the lack of performance from each team’s defense, that should happen even across the pond. As far as results go, though, I think Gus Bradley is coaching for his job and leads Jacksonville to their first win of the season.

Pick: Jaguars +2.5

Carolina Panthers (-3) at Atlanta Falcons

The Panthers have already lost more games in 2016 than they did all of last season. Of course, facing the defenses of the Broncos and Vikings is no easy task. Spoiler alert: the Falcons are right on-pace with the Saints in regards to not being able to stop anyone this season. Thus, I see Cam Newton and company having a bounce-back performance and winning this one handily on a short road trip to Atlanta.

Pick: Panthers -3
