Preview: Cowboys at Seahawks
Gracenote
Sep 21, 2018

The Seattle Seahawks look to avoid their first 0-3 start since 2002 when they play their home opener against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Seattle, which opened the campaign with back-to-back losses in Denver and Chicago, hope the home-field advantage will help them top the Cowboys and begin a turnaround.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said his team is feeling the urgency to win this week as he is totally aware how hard it would be to have to dig out of an 0-3 hole. "Every single game is a freaking championship opportunity," Carroll said at a press conference. "We've got to go. There's only a couple of undefeated teams in the NFC right now and let's hang with them. I don't want to get behind that number right now, so we've got to get a win." Dallas, which defeated the New York Giants 20-13 last Sunday for its first win, has been terrific defensively as it has allowed just 29 points. "We want to hold offenses to the minimum, so we go out there with that expectation - and when we fall short, it's upsetting," Cowboys defensive end Tyrone Crawford told reporters. "Obviously, we're going to get in there and look at it and take it hard on ourselves, because that's what we do - and we'll just come out better next time."

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Seahawks -1.5. O/U: 41.5

ABOUT THE COWBOYS (1-1): Quarterback Dak Prescott has thrown for just 330 yards in two games and running back Ezekiel Elliott has rushed for only 147 after efforts of 69 and 78 to open the season. "I think we're really close to where we need to be," Elliott told reporters of the rushing attack. "We're just one block away from hitting some big ones, so we've just got to keep working, keep staying disciplined, stay focused and keep grinding." Linebacker Sean Lee injured a hamstring against the Giants but insists he will play on Sunday, while defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence has registered two sacks as he looks to follow up on last season's career-best 14.5 total.

ABOUT THE SEAHAWKS (0-2): Quarterback Russell Wilson has passed for 524 yards and five touchdowns but also has thrown three interceptions while being sacked 12 times behind shoddy play by the offensive line. The rushing attack is averaging just 69 yards per game and 3.6 per carry as first-round pick Rashaad Penny (17 carries, 38 yards) has been unable to make an impact thus far. The defense has been hit hard by injuries, with outside linebacker K.J. Wright (knee) slated to miss his third straight game, but there is good news as middle linebacker Bobby Wagner (groin) is expected to return after missing Monday's loss to the Bears.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Seahawks have won three of the last four meetings.

2. Seattle WR Doug Baldwin (knee) didn't practice Thursday and likely will miss his second straight game.

3. Only three Dallas players have more than 30 receiving yards, with WR Cole Beasley the leader at 86 on nine receptions.

PREDICTION: Seahawks 19, Cowboys 17

Preview: Bears at Cardinals
Gracenote
Sep 20, 2018

The Arizona Cardinals struggled mightily on offense in their first two games of the season, and things don't figure to get much better when they host the Chicago Bears and their dynamic defense on Sunday. Arizona avoided being shut out by Washington in its opener by scoring a late touchdown but recorded 137 total yards while being blanked by the Los Angeles Rams last week.

Sam Bradford threw for 90 yards and the Cardinals mustered only 54 on the ground as they registered a mere five first downs and didn't get into Rams territory until the final minute in the 34-0 defeat. The club will be hard-pressed to improve those numbers against the Bears, who rank eighth in the NFL in total defense and lead the league with 10 sacks. Khalil Mack has lived up to the hype - and his $141 million new contract - in his first two games with Chicago, recording two sacks, two forced fumbles and an interception return for a touchdown. Danny Trevathan and Prince Amukamara were forces in Monday's 24-17 triumph over Seattle, with the former notching a pair of sacks and the latter returning an interception for a score.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Bears -5.5. O/U: 38

ABOUT THE BEARS (1-1): Trevathan was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Week after recording the two sacks, eight tackles - six solo - and a forced fumble in the win over the Seahawks. He became the first Bears linebacker to receive the honor since Brian Urlacher in Week 9 of the 2012 season. Chicago hopes to get its ground game going this week as Jordan Howard gained just 35 yards on 14 carries against Seattle after recording 82 on 15 rushes in the season opener versus Green Bay.

ABOUT THE CARDINALS (0-2): Larry Fitzgerald suffered a hamstring injury in the fourth quarter last week after making three catches for 28 yards and did not practice on Wednesday but is expected to play against Chicago. The veteran receiver's next touchdown reception will tie him with Tony Gonzalez (111) for seventh place on the all-time list. Arizona received some solid performances on defense last week as cornerback Patrick Peterson recorded a career high-tying eight tackles and an interception while defensive end Benson Mayowa registered seven tackles and a pair of sacks.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Cardinals, whose longest play last week was a 15-yard gain, are 0-2 for the first time since 2005.

2. Chicago QB Mitchell Trubisky, who has rushed 12 times for 56 yards in the first two games, threw two touchdown passes for the first time in his career last week.

3. Arizona released DT Garrison Smith, who recorded one tackle in two games, and signed LB Joe Walker from Philadelphia's practice squad.

PREDICTION: Bears 30, Cardinals 9

Preview: Patriots at Lions
Gracenote
Sep 21, 2018

Matt Patricia had one of the best coaching gigs in the NFL, serving as defensive coordination under Bill Belichick on the staff of the New England Patriots. Patricia parlayed his success in that post into his first head coaching job with the Detroit Lions, but he will have to beat Belichick and the visiting Patriots on Sunday night to earn his first career victory.

Aside from matching wits with his mentor Belichick, Patricia must find a way to slow three-time NFL MVP Tom Brady, who is coming off a rare clunker in a 31-20 loss at Jacksonville. "Patriots are a great team, great ownership, great head coach, great players and we've got a huge challenge in front of us," said Patricia, who spent 14 seasons with New England, six as defensive coordinator. "You know, you just try to keep it to the game." Sunday's game could mark the Patriots debut of wide receiver Josh Gordon, who has been a limited participant in practice since he was acquired from the Cleveland Browns earlier this week. New England is 45-6 after a loss since the 2003 season, last dropping back-to-back regular-season games in 2015.

TV: 8:20 p.m. ET, NBC. LINE: Patriots -6.5. O/U: 53.5

ABOUT THE PATRIOTS (1-1): New England's defense looks like it could use Patricia back in his previous role after it allowed Jacksonville's Blake Bortles to throw for 376 yards and four touchdowns in last week's romp. Trey Flowers, the team's top defensive lineman, was knocked out of last week's game with a concussion and safety Patrick Chung also suffered a concussion -- both have yet to practice this week and their availability looks increasingly in question. Brady did connect with wideout Chris Hogan for a pair of scoring passes but James White was the leading receiver with seven catches for 73 yards. Rookie running back Sony Michel rushed for a team-high 34 yards on 10 carries in his NFL debut.

ABOUT THE LIONS (0-2): Detroit was shredded by the New York Jets 48-17 in the season opener at home and fell behind by 17 points in the fourth quarter before Matthew Stafford threw a pair of touchdown passes in the three-point defeat. Stafford has attempted 99 passes as the revamped running game has sputtered, with rookie Kerryon Johnson managing a team-high 60 yards on 13 carries. While Golden Tate and running back Theo Riddick share the team lead with 14 catches, Kenny Golladay is emerging at a dangerous weapon for Stafford with 13 receptions for a club-high 203 yards and a score. The Lions could be without one of their top defenders with cornerback Darius Slay unable to practice this week due to a concussion.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski has 10 receptions for 143 in the last two matchups versus Detroit.

2. Stafford has thrown for 2,900 yards and 20 touchdowns in his last 10 home games.

3. New England is 52-13 against the NFC since realignment in 2002, the NFL's best inter-conference record in that span.

PREDICTION: Patriots 30, Lions 23

Preview: Bengals at Panthers
Gracenote
Sep 20, 2018

The Cincinnati Bengals will try to weather a storm of injuries and remain among the ranks of the unbeaten when they visit the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Consecutive 34-23 wins over Indianapolis and Baltimore have the Bengals on the verge of their third 3-0 start in the last five years, but health is becoming a concern.

Starting running back Joe Mixon is out up to four weeks following knee surgery, backup Giovani Bernard (knee) was limited in practice Wednesday and rookie center Billy Price is out at least two weeks due to a foot injury. "It's just the next-man-up rule," Bernard told reporters of the running back situation. "When one guy goes down, you just have to pick it up and get ready for it. … It is what it is. When your opportunity comes up, just take advantage of it." The Panthers will be trying to bounce back from a 31-24 loss at Atlanta last week. They lead the NFL in yards per carry (5.4) and running back Christian McCaffrey is making a big contribution in the passing game with 20 receptions, second-most in the league entering Week 3.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Panthers -3. O/U: 44

ABOUT THE BENGALS (2-0): Andy Dalton threw for 265 yards and four touchdowns - three to A.J. Green - in the win over the Ravens in last week's Thursday night game, and he has confidence in Bernard's ability to help keep the machine working. "Gio is such a smart player," Dalton told reporters. "He understands every aspect of the position. He knows what we are doing in the run game, pass game, protections and all of it. I definitely have a comfort level with him back there." The Bengals signed former Seattle running back Thomas Rawls on Wednesday to back up Bernard.

ABOUT THE PANTHERS (1-1): Cam Newton was 32-of-45 for 335 yards and three TDs while contributing a team-high 42 rushing yards in last week's loss to the Falcons, and the former NFL MVP is completing 69 percent of his passes in new offensive coordinator Norv Turner's system. "He's made a lot of good decisions these first two games," coach Ron Rivera told reporters. "I'm real excited about the progress Cam has shown in terms of understanding and getting a feel for what coach Turner wants." McCaffrey matched the franchise record with 14 receptions against Atlanta and also tied for the most catches by a running back in a game since 1981.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The last meeting in 2014 resulted in a 37-37 tie.

2. Green needs two TD catches to tie Carl Pickens (63) for second on the franchise's all-time list. Chad Johnson tops the list with 66.

3. Panthers LB Luke Kuechly, a Cincinnati native, enters Week 3 ranked fourth in the NFL with 21 tackles, while Bengals LB Nick Vigil is tied for fifth with 20.

PREDICTION: Panthers 26, Bengals 21

Looking Ahead

-- The Saints and Falcons will do battle in Atlanta, as New Orleans hopes to find a little consistency away from home. They're 14-5 ATS across their past 19 games away from the Crescent City, but they're just 1-4 ATS in the past five inside the division. Atlanta has managed a 4-1 ATS in the past five home outings, while going 7-3 ATS in the past 10 games played in the month of September. The 'over' is 5-0 in the past five for the Saints against NFC opponents, while going 7-3 in their past 10 inside the division. On the flip side, the 'under' is 8-1 in the past nine against NFC foes for Atlanta, while going 4-1 in their past five inside the division. In this series, the under is 7-2 in the past nine in Atlanta, and 7-3-1 in the past 11 meetings overall.

-- The Titans hit the road to battle the Jaguars in 'Sacksonville'. The Titans haven't been very good inside the AFC South, going 18-36-3 ATS in their past 57 against division foes. They're also a dismal 9-22 ATS in their past 31 games away from the Music City, while going 4-11 ATS in the past 15 on the road against teams with a winning home mark. Meanwhile, the Jags are 7-2 ATS across their past nine inside the division, and they're 5-1-1 ATS in the past seven in 'Duuuval' against the Titans. The 'under' has also cashed in six of the past eight meetings in Northeast Florida.

-- The Patriots will head to the Motor City to battle former coordinat Matt Patricia and the Lions. The Patriots opened as a touchdown favorite, and they'll be angry after getting socked around by the Jaguars and their punishing defense on Sunday. New England is 8-1 ATS in their past nine against teams with a losing record, while going 7-2 ATS across the past nine on field turf. For the Lions, the 'over' has cashed in eight of their past 10 at Ford Field, while the 'under' is 4-1 over the past five road games for the Pats.

-- The Steelers and Buccaneers will meet on Monday night in Tampa. The Steelers are just 1-8 ATS in the past nine games dating back to last season, but they're 23-9-2 ATS in their past 34 road games against a team with a winning home record. The Bucs have cashed in five in a row, 2-0 ATS this season thanks to some 'Fitz-magic', but they are 12-25 ATS across the past 37 home games against a team with a losing road record.
