5. Jaguars fall to 0-4 on the season
Despite entering the 2024 season with high expectations, the Jaguars have heavily struggled out of the gates. They were blown out on Monday Night Football against the Buffalo Bills and will be taking on the Houston Texans on the road this weekend. Houston is coming off their own bad loss last week and will take it out on Jacksonville. The Jaguars fall to 0-4, with some big questions about where this franchise goes from here arising.
4. Eagles offense bounces back after poor start last week
The Eagles offense didn't do much of anything against the New Orleans Saints last week until late in the fourth quarter. They got the win but it came on the backs of the defense heavily stepping up. This week, they play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the road but Tampa Bay's defense was exposed last week by rookie quarterback Bo Nix. Philadelphia uses this to their advantage and puts up some solid numbers despite the absence of their two-star wideouts en route to a big victory.
3. Caleb Williams' struggles continue, Bears fall to 1-3
It's been a tough start for No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams, as the Bears are 1-2 to start the season. Williams looked much better last week against the Indianapolis Colts, throwing for 363 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. However, against the Los Angeles Rams this week, Williams' struggles will continue. He throws a few more interceptions, and the Bears fall to 1-3 in the new year.
2. Bo Nix outduels Aaron Rodgers, Broncos pick up a big win on the road
...
Coming off an impressive performance on the road against the Buccaneers, Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos will be looking to win two straight games. Nix looked more comfortable in the offense last week and that should carry over. He has yet to throw for a touchdown this season, but that changes this weekend as he helps Denver take down Aaron Rodgers and the Jets on the road.
1. Defense is an afterthought in Commanders, Cardinals game
With the Washington Commanders and Arizona Cardinals squaring off this weekend, the defensive side of the ball on both sides could be in for a rough time. Both offenses have been very good this season, and they will perform well again this week. The two sides will combine for over 65 points in this contest as an offensive fireworks show gets put on in Glendale.
