Week 4 NFL Betting Outlook
In week four, the NFL will have three divisional games in the lineup, starting with the New York Giants and the Washington Redskins on Thursday Night. TNF games are exciting, but this one seems like a fluke as both teams are struggling in the offensive side of the ball.
Tennessee Titans vs. Indianapolis Colts and Green Bay Packers vs. Chicago Bears are the other two divisional matchups in the week.
Packers and Bears have one of the best rivalries in the NFL, and this time both teams have good enough offense to put a huge show at the Soldier Field. The last time QB Aaron Rodgers was on that field he threw a late touchdown and Green Bay clinched a 2013 playoffs spot in the NFC North division while eliminating Chicago at the same time.
However, the best games of the week comes late on Sunday as the Philadelphia Eagles visit the San Francisco 49ers on Levi Stadium at 4:25 PM ET in a matchup of two 2013 playoffs teams, and the New Orleans Saints close the day at the AT&T stadium against the Dallas Cowboys as defensive coordinator Rob Ryan meet his old team.
The Monday night game on ESPN has the New England Patriots on Primetime for the first time in the season facing the Kansas City Chiefs.
