Sep 26, 2015 12:17 AM EDT

New England Patriots

Matchup: Jacksonville Jaguars

The Patriots will be facing a terrible Jaguars offensive line.  The Jaguars will hope to compete with a dangerous Patriots offense that should be unstoppable. Blake Bortles could struggle against this strong Patriots defensive line and an improving secondary. The Patriots are a great start this week.

New York Jets

Matchup: Philadelphia Eagles

The Jets are going up against a team that had less than 5 rushing yards against the Cowboys defense. The Jets defensive line is the best in football and should continue to be dominant against what could be the worst offensive line in football. Sam Bradford has yet to become the stellar quarterback Chip Kelly assumed he would in his system and going up against Revis and the Jets secondary he will have a tough time. This could potentially be the best matchup for any defense this week.

Carolina Panthers

Matchup: New Orleans Saints

The Panthers will get to face the Saints without Drew Brees making them even more toothless. The Saints were not running up the score on anyone when Brees was in so they should continue to spiral downward. The Panthers will not have Luke Kuechly which limits some of their production but they should still have a great day against a struggling Saints offense.

Seattle Seahawks

Matchup: Chicago Bears

The Seahawks will welcome back Kam Chancellor into the starting lineup so Jimmy Clausen will have a rough day. Clausen will be taking over for Jay Cutler and will be without the services of Alshon Jeffery. Clausen will be facing the best secondary without the Bears best weapon so this should be a rough game for him.
