Steelers struggle again in NFL Week 2 Picks and Predictions for each game

Miami Dolphins (1-0) vs New England Patriots (0-1), Sunday at 8:20 P.M. EST

Prediction: Dolphins 27, Patriots 23

New England was almost able to catch the Eagles last week, but they continue to struggle on offense. There seems to be limited opportunity for their offense to get better with the bulk of receivers that they have. Miami had a great game last week that saw their quarterback throw for over 450 yards. Expect those numbers to come down some with a tough Patriots defense.

New Orleans Saints (1-0) vs Carolina Panthers (0-1), Monday at 7:55 P.M. EST

Prediction: Saints 21, Panthers 13

In the NFC East division, there are some bad teams, and it will probably be decided by whoever dominates their divisional games. Expect Derek Carr to do just enough to win that division even though they are not a great team either. The Saints should be able to take care of Carolina in their infancy of a new era of football.

Cleveland Browns (1-0) vs Pittsburgh Steelers (0-1), Monday at 8:15 P.M. EST

Prediction: Browns 19, Steelers 16

The Steelers got destroyed last week and the Browns destroyed a top AFC contender in week one. Both are not as good and not as bad as their respective showings in week one. Expect a closer game here on both sides that could go in either direction. The name of the game here is if the Steelers can stop Nick Chubb and the Browns rushing attack.

If they can accomplish that then they have a great chance of winning this game. Cleveland has a lot of matchups going in their direction this week against Pittsburgh, especially with the number of injuries that the black and gold are dealing with. It is going to be another low scoring and boring contest for the Steelers, but one they will probably fall just short of.
