"Regardless of how long these squads have to prepare for this game, the Steelers should be favored. On a short week, though, this contest will probably be a little closer than originally expected. One area of concern is the Steelers' pass defense since they're ranked 31st in receiving yards allowed per game. However, Joe Flacco will have a tough time staying upright against a Pittsburgh defense that is second in sacks this season."
"This feels a little bit like a home game for the Jags since team owner Shahid Khan has very strong connections to the EPL. In all likelihood, the crowd will be heavily in favor of Jacksonville. On top of that, the Rams have three giveaways in their last two games. That doesn't bode well against the team that has forced the most turnovers in the league this season."
"Then again, that's what every New Orleans Saints game feels like. The reason the Saints will keep this one close is their rushing attack, which should be able to put up numbers against the 31st-ranked run defense in the NFL. Unfortunately for New Orleans, they let up a lot of points, and the Bears come into this game with the NFL's tenth-ranked scoring offense. This one will be closer than expected, but the result will still favor Chicago."
Steelers should be favored against the Bengals despite short-week concerns and a weak pass defense; Pittsburgh's high sack rate will pressure Joe Flacco, producing a narrow 20-18 win. Jacksonville benefits from a London-like home crowd and matchup advantages as the Rams have recent giveaways; Jacksonville's turnover creation and Puka Nacua's ankle issue tilt the game to the Jags, 21-19. New Orleans' rushing attack exploits a 31st-ranked run defense, but Chicago's top-10 scoring offense keeps the game close; Bears win 27-23. Cleveland projects well versus Miami's league-worst run defense with heavy Quinshon Judkins usage and reduced passing burden.
