Nine teams will try to avoid an 0-3 start this weekend during the Week 3 NFL schedule. There are also a pair of 2-0 teams squaring off Sunday, including the Steelers vs. Chargers. Los Angeles decided to stay on the East Coast after playing in Charlotte last week, picking up a 26-3 win over the Panthers under first-year head coach Jim Harbaugh. His defense leads the league in run stop win rate, which bodes well against a Pittsburgh offense that relies heavily on its rushing attack. The Steelers are 1.5-point favorites in the Week 3 NFL odds, so which team should you back with your Week 3 NFL bets and NFL score predictions?
The other matchup between unbeaten teams pits the Vikings vs. Texans at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. Houston has one of the most potent offenses in the NFL, but the Vikings lead the league in sacks, so that could be an intriguing matchup to consider with your Week 3 NFL predictions.

Top Week 3 NFL picks
After diving into all 16 games from the NFL's third week, Cohen is high on the Ravens (-1) to beat the Cowboys in Dallas, 27-24. Baltimore came up a toe short in its season opener at Kansas City before blowing a 10-point fourth-quarter lead against the Raiders last week. The Ravens are just a few plays from entering this game with a 2-0 record, which would likely put this spread closer to a field goal.
MVP Lamar Jackson covered the spread in every game following a Baltimore loss last season, and he is facing a Dallas defense that allowed 190 rushing yards in a 44-19 loss to the Saints last week. Saints running back Alvin Kamara rushed for 115 yards and scored four touchdowns, making this an ideal spot for new Baltimore running back Derrick Henry to have a breakout game. The Ravens are on a nine-game winning streak against NFC opponents, and Cohen expects them to push that streak to double digits on Sunday.
