Preview Roundups
September 23, 2018
Cincinnati at Carolina 1:00 PM ET
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.
N.Y. Giants at Houston 1:00 PM ET
There are only seven 0-2 teams remaining in the NFL and two of them will square off Sunday afternoon when the New York Giants visit the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium. It will mark the home opener for the Texans, who rank 26th in the league in scoring at 18.5 points while the Giants are tied for 29th with the Dallas Cowboys at 14 points per game.
Tennessee at Jacksonville 1:00 PM ET
The Jacksonville Jaguars made a statement last week with a dominant performance against the defending AFC champions and can improve to 3-0 for the first time since 2004 when they host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. Blake Bortles outplayed Tom Brady with 376 passing yards and four touchdowns to lead the Jaguars to a 31-20 win over the New England Patriots in Week 2.
Denver at Baltimore 1:00 PM ET
The Denver Broncos vie for third straight victory to start the season and fourth in a row in the all-time series against the host Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Case Keenum has guided the Broncos to back-to-back comeback wins at home in his first year with the club, including last week's 20-19 triumph over Oakland.
New Orleans at Atlanta 1:00 PM ET

In what figures to be a competitive NFC South race, division matchups are going to carry extra weight. Even though it’s only Week 3, the stakes feel high as the Atlanta Falcons prepare to host the New Orleans Saints on Sunday with both teams off to 1-1 starts.

San Francisco at Kansas City 1:00 PM ET

The Arrowhead Stadium faithful will get their first live look at their electric young quarterback when the Kansas City Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. It will be the first home start for Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who has set an NFL record with 10 touchdown passes through his first three starts – all of which have come in two games this season. 

Green Bay at Washington 1:00 PM ET
The Green Bay Packers rely heavily on superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers, and his lingering knee issue is a point of concern for the team. The Packers hope to have Rodgers as close to full strength as possible when they visit the Washington Redskins in Week 3 on Sunday.
Indianapolis at Philadelphia 1:00 PM ET
The City of Brotherly Love is set to welcome back Carson Wentz with open arms as the franchise quarterback returns to lead the Philadelphia Eagles against Frank Reich and the visiting Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Wentz watched as Nick Foles led the Eagles to the franchise's first Super Bowl title as well as a 1-1 mark this season while recovering from an ACL and LCL tear sustained in December.
Oakland at Miami 1:00 PM ET
The Oakland Raiders seemingly have received nothing but doom and gloom to start the season in the new Jon Gruden Era while the Miami Dolphins conversely have enjoyed sunny skies to begin the 2018 campaign. The Raiders aim to change their outlook on Sunday when they visit Hard Rock Stadium to face the Dolphins, who are off to a 2-0 start for the first time since 2013.
Buffalo at Minnesota 1:00 PM ET
The Minnesota Vikings claim they are taking the Buffalo Bills seriously as they prepare for Sunday's home contest against the beleaguered squad. Buffalo has been outscored 78-23 in its first two games and is throwing first-round pick Josh Allen into the fire.
L.A. Chargers at L.A. Rams 4:05 PM ET
The Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers are destined to share a home someday but for now the two teams will settle for sharing a stadium once this season, when the Rams host the Chargers on Sunday. The Rams are undefeated and look every bit like a Super Bowl contender while the Chargers are coming off their first victory entering the contest at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
Chicago at Arizona 4:25 PM ET
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.
Dallas at Seattle 4:25 PM ET
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.
New England at Detroit 8:20 PM ET
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.
