Which games grabbed our analysts' attention?After a heartbreaking loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Brazil, the Dallas Cowboys visit the Houston Texans, who sit at 0-3 but enter as early favorites at home in the in-state rivalry. Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills will look to remain undefeated when they host the New England Patriots. The Jacksonville Jaguars visit the Cincinnati Bengals in a matchup of 2-1 teams.In Sunday's late afternoon window, the winless Miami Dolphins hit the road to face the undefeated Minnesota Vikings.Matt Bowen, Eric Moody, Pamela Maldonado and Seth Walder break down the games and share the bets they're backing before potential odds shifts later in the week.Note: Odds by DraftKings and subject to change.Check out the latest Super Bowl odds and major NFL awards futures. Dallas Cowboys +2.5 at Houston TexansBowen: I'll take Dallas -- with the points -- in Houston. Maybe Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is back for this one to boost the Texans' pass game, but the lack of run-game efficiency (3.6 YPC) is still an issue for DeMeco Ryans' team. Dak Prescott and the Cowboys make enough plays here, working the intermediate voids versus Houston's zone-heavy scheme to cover on the road.Last week: Lions -6.5 (Result: Lions 31, Jets 24) Buffalo Bills -7 vs. New England PatriotsMoody: The Bills lead the league in scoring and rank third in total offense. Meanwhile, New England is coming off a 35-6 loss to Jacksonville (its largest defeat since late 2024), and Drake Maye has already thrown six interceptions. He struggled badly under pressure in Week 3. Also, the Patriots have had issues stopping the run. If those problems continue, the Bills should have ample chances to pull away.Last week: Packers -7 (Result: Falcons 35, Packers 14) Jacksonville Jaguars at Cincinnati Bengals total points OVER 51Maldonado: I'm not treating the Jaguars defense as a shutdown unit yet. They've managed only four sacks through the first three games of the season. Now they face Joe Burrow, who presents a different test from the quarterbacks they have faced. Cincinnati's defense has given up 383 yards per game, which gives Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence room to answer.Last week: Patriots-Jaguars UNDER 44.5 (Result: Jaguars 35, Patriots 6) Miami Dolphins +10.5 at Minnesota VikingsWalder: What's the one thing everyone knows about the 2026 Vikings? They blitz a LOT, even compared to past Brian Flores teams. But the Dolphins also are one of the most run-heavy teams in the league, ranking 31st in pass rate over expected, per NFL Next Gen Stats. Does that inject some chaos into what Minnesota wants to do on defense? Perhaps, and that's all we're asking for here. Enough entropy for the Dolphins to just keep the game within 10. Anything else is gravy.Last week: No pick
