Cowboys at Falcons (SPREAD: ATL -3) [Sunday 1:00pm ET on FOX]

“I like Dallas +3. I think they're going to win straight out. It's a must-win, and they've actually been a better road team than a home team this year. Six of the Falcons' eight wins have come by one possession. The Falcons defense has six sacks [all season], Dak Prescott is gonna sit in the pocket with time to throw. The Falcons defense on third-down this year is terrible. Quarterback hits, sacks, TERRIBLE. A comfortable quarterback against Atlanta -- I'm going to take the Cowboys here, 28-27 in a fun game."

Colin's prediction: Cowboys 28, Falcons 27

Colin's pick: Dallas +3

Commanders at Giants (SPREAD: WAS -4) [Sunday, 1:00 pm ET on FOX]

“You know I love the number four, I'm going to take the Commanders -4. They outplayed the Bears and it should have never been that close. They lead the NFL in points-per-drive; a key gambling stat. I don't think their defense has great personnel but Dan Quinn has got them playing like a top 10 unit. The Giants are a bad team on short rest, the Giants are 0-4 at home, and Daniel Jones has not thrown a touchdown pass since his great left tackle was out for the season. The Giants defense is now on the field too much because the Giants offense is so bad, so their defense is wearing down. This is a bad football team. The Commanders offensively since Week 2 have been money. I think the Commanders win straight out, 28-20, lay the points."

Colin's prediction: Commanders 28, Giants 20

Colin's pick: Washington -4

Broncos at Ravens (SPREAD: BAL -8) [Sunday, 1:00 pm ET on CBS]

“I generally do not like big favorites, but I love Baltimore here. Especially off a loss. They're in a bad mood and the Ravens at home are money. Their five wins have come by an average of 9.6 points, Lamar has six straight games of 100+ passer rating, and Derrick Henry leads the NFL in rushing. I know what the Ravens are, and their weakness -- the back-end, I don't think the Broncos will exploit. Bo Nix on the road as a rookie quarterback has a 68 passer rating and completing barely above 60%. They have notable injuries; to their right tackle. Their wins have come agianst the Jets, Raiders, Seahawks, Saints, and the Panthers -- I think this is a get-right game for the Ravens. They cover the spread and win 33-23 and I don't think it will feel that close."

Colin's prediction: Ravens 33, Broncos 23

Colin's pick: Baltimore -8

Lions at Packers (SPREAD: DET -2.5) [Sunday, 4:25 pm ET on FOX]

“I get Green Bay at home plus points? Jared Goff is banged up a little, I'm going to take the Packers +2.5. Matt LaFleur is a GREAT coach, not a 'good' one. They have won six of their last seven games and are averaging over 28 points. Whether with Jordan Love or Malik Willis, the offense is moving. They're a very aggressive Green Bay team. They're second in the NFL in 'big plays' offensively, and they lead the NFL in takeaways defensively. This is a very unique Green Bay team. They're well-coached, they're hyper-aggressive on both sides, and aggressive teams can beat the Lions, who are banged up a little bit. They have twelve different players on the injury report, and they don't have Jameson Williams over the top to burn Green Bay's secondary. I just think in a division rivalry game, Green Bay at home, and better coach getting the points? The Titans got some rushing yards on Detroit last week, be careful. I'm going to take the Packers to win it. It's an 'upset' kind of, but I don't really feel like it's an NFL upset when the Packers win at home with the better coach. 28-27, take the points."

Colin's prediction: Packers 28, Lions 27

Colin's pick: Packers +2.5

Rams at Seahawks (SPREAD: LAR -1) [Sunday, 4:25 pm ET on FOX]

“I like the Rams. Great coach with extra rest. These Thursday games are an advantage the following week. They beat the Vikings on Thursday and now have extra rest. The Rams are one of the better teams in the league when they're healthy when Stafford, Puka, Kupp, and Kyren Williams play -- they're 7-3. They're the second-least penalized team in the league. The Rams are a really good team with a young defense, but because they started slowly people bailed on them. Seattle has lost four out of their last five games, and they've got all sorts of injuries. Tyler Lockett, Noah Fant, DK Metcalf, offensive linemen... Seattle in the last five games is 1-4. They have a defensive coach and can't get their offensive line or running game right. This is a division rivalry game, and I get a bid edge at quarterback, a big edge at head coach, and right now a big edge in health. The Rams are finally the healthier team in a game, and that hasn't happened all season. Rams win, lay the one point, 27-23, Los Angeles."

Colin's prediction: Rams 27, Seahawks 23

Colin's pick: Los Angeles -1
