Last week we saw the Jacksonville Jags defeat the Houston Texans in a shocker! Is Alex Smith all of sudden is big name QB after the beat of the Patriots? Let’s not waste anytime! Here are the Top 5 Games to Watch for 2017 NFL Season Week 2!

5. Minnesota @ Pittsburgh

ORCHARD PARK, NY – AUGUST 10: Sam Bradford #8 hands the ball off to Dalvin Cook #33 of the Minnesota Vikings during the first quarter of a preseason game against the Buffalo Bills on August 10, 2017 at New Era Field in Orchard Park, New York. (Photo by Brett Carlsen/Getty Images)
-This game is important for 2 reasons
1. Can Minnesota take their strong defense on the road against a powerful Pittsburgh offense? The Steelers are looking to redeem themselves after a lackluster performance against the Cleveland Browns.
2. Will Dalvin Cook take his show on the road and carry a Vikings team who could possibly be without Sam Bradford?
-Predicted score Minnesota 10, Pittsburgh 31
 

4. Tennessee @ Jacksonville

-This game is important for 5 reasons
1. Are the Packers just that better on defense, or were the Seahawks just that bad last week?
2. Are the Falcons still in Super Bowl hangover mode?
3. Julio Jones torched the Packers last year, while the Falcons make an effort to feed him the ball?
4. Will the Packers establish a running game to take the pressure of Aaron Rodgers?
5. The Falcons defense has been hyped all summer, they allowed Mike Glennon to throw 40 times with 26 completions and no turnovers to basically no name receivers. What will Aaron Rodgers do?
Predicted Score Green Bay 42, Atlanta 31
