Bears

The Chicago Bears play host to the Indianapolis Colts – an AFC team that has started the year 2-1. Obviously, the Bears are nobody to worry about, as the only time the Steelers would face them this season would be in the Super Bowl. However, it’s entirely possible that Pittsburgh and Indianapolis could be fighting for Wild Card seeding when it’s all said and done. The Bears are 3-point underdogs, but there’s no downside to rooting for them this week.

Washington

This would be a very unlikely upset. The Washington Football Team is set to host our worst enemy: The Baltimore Ravens. Unfortunately, the Ravens are 14-point favorites in this contest. While it’s highly unlikely a shaky team like Washington could knock off Baltimore this week, we obviously will all be cheering against the Ravens. If they were to somehow lose, Pittsburgh could be sitting pretty in the AFC North heading into Week 5.

Jaguars

Jacksonville is never a team you want to count on. Fortunately, they’re only playing the Cincinnati Bengals this week. While I obviously don’t believe that Cincinnati will be a threat to anyone this year, Joe Burrow has impressed early on. This one is more of just wanting the Bengals to lose because they’re the Bengals. I can’t see a scenario where Cincinnati becomes a legitimate threat in 2020.
