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

Tennessee is rebounding nicely from a mediocre start to the season. They went to New Orleans and beat the Saints in overtime behind a great showing by rookie quarterback Marcus Mariota. The undefeated Carolina Panthers are coming to Nashville this Sunday, and the Titans are going to have a lot more issues against a team rolling on all cylinders.

Pick: Carolina 28, Tennessee 17

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

Tampa Bay is playing at a surprising level, partially thanks to the solid level of play of rookie quarterback Jameis Winston. Dallas is struggling offensively since the injuries of quarterback Tony Romo and wide receiver Dez Bryant, while the defense can’t find the necessary stops. The Cowboys found their offensive stars back to provide a most likely tight game between the two teams.

Pick: Tampa Bay 27, Dallas 24

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

Every team that owns an average defense needs a dynamic offense in order to fight against New Orleans. The Saints light up the scoreboards week after week but face tight games because of one of the worse defense in the league. Washington does not have a good enough defense to slow down New Orleans. Moreover, Kirk Cousins is unlikely to keep up with Drew Brees. while the offense is on the field.

Pick: New Orleans 28, Washington 20

Last week: 1-3
Season: 18-11
