Carolina Panthers (8-0) at Tennessee Titans (2-6)

Week 10 is here, and the biggest surprise of the NFL is continuing their run at perfection as the Carolina Panthers head up to Nashville to take on the Tennessee Titans. And, the music has never been louder in The Music City than it was last week when these Titans knocked off the heavily-favored New Orleans Saints.

The Panthers are arguably the NFL’s hottest team as they continue to steamroll opponents like they did against Green Bay last week. This week should be no different as the feared Panther defense preys on the young and unproven Titans. Expect Cam Newton to continue his march on the MVP race and will lead his pack to another convincing victory.

Pick: Carolina 33, Tennessee 16

Dallas Cowboys (2-6) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-5)

I expect this game to be a close one at the end, with only a matter of points separating the two. And this gives Jameis another national platform to prove himself to the world-and we all know how he thrives in those situations.

Pick: Tampa Bay 24, Dallas 20

New Orleans Saints (4-5) at Washington Redskins (3-5)

Expect to see Drew Brees continue his hot streak. This will not be a barn burner like the game versus the Giants was, as the Redskins don’t have that much fire power on the offensive side of the ball. But they will control the clock with a good running game, and it will keep this game relatively close.

Pick: New Orleans 30, Washington 23

Last week: 2-2
Season: 19-10
