2012 NFL Week 3 Predictions
This past week in the NFL was a crazy week in the NFL with tons of upsets and a lot of bad calls. With that being said here are my predictions for week 3. As always, the teams highlight in bold lettering are the ones who I think will win.
Giants at Panthers
The Giants are 1-1 but have really struggled their first two games and with the amount of the injuries they have on both sides of the ball this week, I have a feeling they won’t be able to hang in their with Carolina. Cam Newton should have another great game this week.
Bengals at Redskins
Bengals at Redskins
Both are up and coming teams but from what I have seen so far the Redskins offense has been on fire. RG3 looks like he was shot out of a cannon and has exploded on to the scene. Washington shouldn’t have a problem winning this game.
Jets at Dolphins
Bills at Browns
Lions at Titans
Chiefs at Saints
Jaguars at Colts
49ers at Vikings
Rams at Bears
Buccaneers at Cowboys
Falcons at Chargers
Eagles at Cardinals
Steelers at Raiders
Texans at Broncos

In all my pools and leagues I went with the Houston Texans but this is Hollywood’s World of Sports and I think with my heart and head on here. They are telling me that Peyton Manning had a bad week last week and he is going to redeem himself at home this week and come up with the big game. I truly believe that AFC team representing the conference is going to be one of these two in this game. Both are going to be hard to beat this year but I give the Mile High advantage to Denver in this one.
Patriots at Ravens
Patriots at Ravens
Both teams looked sharp in week 1 and then lost control of their respective games in week 2. With all the problems that the Patriots are having on offense and little time to practice their new addition I think the Ravens defense is going to some damage this week.
Packers at Seahawks
Packers at Seahawks
Upset alert is in full effect for Monday Night Football. I believe with how well the Seahawks play at home I think Green Bay will be caught off guard by the atmosphere of Seattle. Seattle wins by a small margin but a win is a win nonetheless.
I will be curious to see how many bad calls are made this upcoming week and if they will effect the outcome of games like some of them have. These refs have been making so many bad calls but with that being said here are what the odds makers from Vegas.com are saying about this weeks games.
