Columnist Releases 11 NFL Week 3 Bets After 11-5 Start

1 articles · Updated · The Ringer · Sep 24

Summary

  • 11-5 through two weeks, the columnist’s Week 3 card centers on low-scoring calls, led by Falcons-Packers under 43.5 and Bengals-Steelers under 42.5.
  • 43.5 points in Green Bay fell from 44.5 as both offenses search for identity—Atlanta turns to Michael Penix Jr. returning from a torn ACL, while the Packers deal with line injuries and a 30th-ranked offensive success rate.
  • 10.5 points is the biggest side recommendation, with Kansas City favored at Miami after the Dolphins posted one of the worst recent EPA-per-pass defensive showings and Patrick Mahomes looked sharper downfield in Week 2.
  • 27.5 points is the Ravens team-total play against Dallas in Rio, while the card also backs over 43.5 in Raiders-Saints, Seahawks -7 at Washington, Buccaneers moneyline, and Cardinals team total over 18.5.
  • Week 3 analysis stresses how volatile early-season results remain, arguing that two-game samples can mislead even as injuries, quarterback changes and market moves start reshaping betting value.
