Monday Night Football feature two heavyweights. The Bills, who lead the AFC East with a 6-1 record, will travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings, who lead the NFC North with a 6-1 record. The only difference is that the Vikings just had their only loss in Week 8. Is this a trend? We’ll find out after kickoff at 8:15 pm EST.

The Bills have scored the most points this season, and that offense is coming up against the team that is hardest to score on. Juggernauts against an immovable force. But what’s going on with Kyler Murray? Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Bills vs Vikings prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Buffalo Bills Recent Scores: Allen and Running Game

Buffalo is on a 3-game winning streak, but two of those were close. Week 5 against the Rams ended in a 4-point spread, while Week 6 against the Raiders was a 3-point Bills win. The Raiders scored with 1:32 left in the fourth quarter, making it close. Josh Allen tied Jim Kelly’s franchise record for career touchdown passes, and also had zero turnovers. In the previous three weeks, he’s had nine.

Week 7 was their Bye, but Week 8 saw them blow out the Ravens 36-10. Allen beat Kelly’s record with two more touchdown passes. Baltimore’s low score can be attributed to Lamar Jackson injuring his thumb on the first snap. He requires surgery and may miss the remainder of the season.

• Week 1: at Texans 36-31 (win)
• Week 2: vs Lions 41-31 (win)
• Week 3: vs Chargers 24-16 (win)
• Week 4: vs Patriots 26-29 (loss)
• Week 5: at Rams 37-34 (win)
• Week 6: at Raiders 33-30 (win)
• Week 7: Bye
• Week 8: vs Ravens 36-10 (win)

Minnesota Vikings Recent Scores: Lions Found Weakness

In Week 7, the Indianapolis Colts took an early lead on the game’s opening drive with a 38-yard touchdown run, but the Vikings’ defense relentlessly pressured Daniel Jones and sacked him four times. Minnesota’s kicker, Will Reichard, made three field goals, and Indianapolis’ kicker Spencer Shrader missed two crucial field goal attempts in the second half.

Week 8 saw the last undefeated team fall to the Lions. Detroit was able to rush for 164 yards in the second half against the best defense in the NFL, as the Vikings previously allowed less than 100 yards per game on the ground. The Lions finished with 230 rushing yards. That was Detroit’s third straight win, but it cost them several injuries. Minnesota’s safety, Theo Jackson, had a quad injury, and quarterback Kyler Murray also suffered a hamstring injury.

• Week 1: vs Packers 39-22 (win)
• Week 2: at Bears 9-3 (win)
• Week 3: at Buccaneers 23-16 (win)
• Week 4: vs Dolphins 15-10 (win)
• Week 5: at Saints 23-13 (win)
• Week 6: Bye
• Week 7: vs Colts 16-10 (win)
• Week 8: at Lions 15-19 (loss)

Bills vs Vikings History: Scarcely Play

The Minnesota Vikings hold the series lead 9-6 against the Buffalo Bills. They’ve been competing since 1971 with no playoff contests.

Their last meeting was on November 13, 2022, almost four years to the day, when the Vikings beat the Bills in overtime, 33-30.

Bills vs Vikings Prediction: Wentz Factor

The Vikings are at home, but with Murray out and Carson Wentz as starting quarterback, the Bills are favored to win by 3 points. However, Wentz may be better suited against Buffalo, which has one of the worst defenses in the league, especially against the pass. Wentz said he plans to throw the ball to Justin Jefferson often on Monday night.

Our Bills vs Vikings prediction is a bigger Bills win, thanks to their strong running game and Josh Allen’s arm. That arm might be limited because of Minnesota’s blitz-heavy defense, so the Bills may lean heavily on running back James Cook in this one.

Bills to win 27-20.

Sunday Night Football features the Tampa Bay Buccaneers visiting the Chicago Bears. Kickoff is at 7:20 pm CST (November 8).

Both teams are in second place in their respective divisions. The Bears are 6-2 in the highly competitive NFC North. The Buccaneers are 3-5 in the NFC South, which is the only division with no teams with a winning record.

So what’s going on with the Buccaneers’ running game? Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Buccaneers vs Bears prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Recent Scores: Ground Dominance

The Buccaneers started the season 0-4, but have turned things around and won their last two games.

In Week 7, Baker Mayfield returned from a thumb injury that kept him out of Weeks 4, 5, and 6. The Bucs blew out the Panthers by leaning on the ground game. Mayfield attempted just 11 passes, completing 7 for 64 yards and one touchdown.

Bucky Irving rushed for 106 yards and 2 touchdowns. The team racked up 258 rushing yards on 49 carries. They forced 4 turnovers and recorded 5 sacks. Carolina’s Bryce Young faced constant pressure.

Week 8 was historic for the Bucs. Mayfield didn’t complete any passes in a wet, sloppy field because of driving rain most of the game. But the team set a rushing record with 324 yards.

They were also the first team since 1974 to have zero passing completions. The Buffalo Bills were the last ones to do it. They also won, beating the Jets 16-12.

• Week 1: at Bengals 27-33 (loss)
• Week 2: vs Browns 19-23 (loss)
• Week 3: vs Vikings 16-23 (loss)
• Week 4: vs Packers 14-17 (loss)
• Week 5: at Cowboys 24-16 (win)
• Week 6: vs Steelers 19-26 (loss)
• Week 7: at Panthers 43-13 (win)
• Week 8: vs Falcons 16-0 (win)

Chicago Bears Recent Scores: Efficient Play

The Bears are doing well with a three-game winning streak coming into Week 9.

In Week 7 against the Patriots, they took an early 10-0 lead. The Patriots caught up a bit by the end of the first half, but couldn’t get any closer. Chicago’s kicker Cairo Santos hit the right upright on a 53-yard attempt in the fourth, but with 1:34 remaining made a career-long 58-yard field goal.

In Week 8, the Bears visited Seattle. They were able to break through the normally stingy Seattle defense and end their 30-game record of not losing by more than 4 points. Caleb Williams was extremely efficient, completing 71% of his passes for 247 yards and getting sacked just once.

• Week 1: at Panthers 59-37 (win)
• Week 2: vs Vikings 3-9 (loss)
• Week 3: vs Eagles 27-7 (win)
• Week 4: vs Jets 23-12 (win)
• Week 5: at Packers 7-31 (loss)
• Week 6: at Falcons 31-23 (win)
• Week 7: vs Patriots 30-24 (win)
• Week 8: at Seahawks 34-17 (win)

Buccaneers vs Bears History: Overbearing

These teams have played each other 62 times, with the Bears leading 40-22-0. Their longest winning streak came in the 80s when they won 12 games in a row. Tampa Bay’s longest winning streak began in 1997 and lasted six games.

They first met in 1977 when the Bears beat the Buccaneers 10-0, but as of yet, they have not met in the playoffs.

Buccaneers vs Bears Prediction: To Pass or Not to Pass

While Chicago’s Caleb Williams’ passing game has been very efficient, Baker Mayfield’s is almost non-existent. But both teams are winning, and both teams have a strong ground game.

The Bears are favored by 6 points. They are the more complete, high-powered team and should win, but may not cover the spread. Will the Buccaneers continue focusing on the ground, or will they surprise the Bears with a more balanced game than recently?

Our Buccaneers vs Bears prediction is a continuation of the Bears’ dominance. They’ll beat the Bucs 28-26. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

Thursday Night Football features the Jaguars at the Ravens on November 5. Kickoff is at 8:15 pm ET. Home field advantage won’t help the Ravens, who have an uncertain quarterback situation.

The Jaguars lead the AFC South at 5-2, while the Ravens have dropped steadily and just got crushed by the Bills. They sit at the bottom of the AFC North at 4-4. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Jaguars vs Ravens prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Jacksonville Jaguars Recent Scores: Don’t Travel Well

In Week 6, the Jaguars and Texans played in Wembley Stadium in London. The teams were even in passing and rushing yards, turnovers (1), and time of possession. Ka’imi Fairbairn kicked a 49-yard field goal as time expired to win the game for the Texans.

After a bye in Week 7, the Jaguars hosted the Indianapolis Colts to beat them in a 42-7 blowout. Indianapolis’ only points came in the third quarter when Daniel Jones threw a touchdown pass to Josh Downs. Jones also had two interceptions and was benched in the fourth quarter. Anthony Richardson replaced him. Jacksonville’s Bhayshul Tuten had career highs with 104 rushing yards and 55 receiving yards.

• Week 1: vs Browns 34-10 (win)
• Week 2: at Broncos 13-20 (loss)
• Week 3: vs Patriots 35-6 (win)
• Week 4: at Bengals 22-17 (win)
• Week 5: vs Eagles 19-17 (win)
• Week 6: vs Texans 31-34 (loss)
• Week 7: Bye
• Week 8: vs Colts 42-7 (win)

Baltimore Ravens Recent Scores: Backup of Backup

Baltimore has four wins this season, but is currently on a three-game skid. In Week 7 against the Bengals, they led 13-0 at halftime, with backup quarterback Tyler Huntley leading the charge. But Joe Burrow and the Bengals turned it around in the second half. Burrow completed 16 of 18 passes for 249 yards and four touchdowns.

Quarterback Lamar Jackson was back in Week 8 after missing three weeks. He lasted exactly one snap when Buffalo’s Greg Rousseau hit Jackson’s throwing hand as he released an incomplete pass. Jackson requires thumb surgery and is expected to miss the season. Backup Snoop Huntley suffered a foot injury in the second quarter and was replaced by undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano, who made his NFL debut in the team’s third straight loss.

• Week 1: at Colts 41-23 (win)
• Week 2: vs Saints 17-24 (loss)
• Week 3: vs Cowboys 34-31 (win)
• Week 4: vs Titans 24-18 (win)
• Week 5: at Falcons 30-23 (win)
• Week 6: at Browns 10-13 (loss)
• Week 7: vs Bengals 13-35 (loss)
• Week 8: at Bills 10-36 (loss)

Jaguars vs Ravens History: Cleveland to Baltimore

Both teams entered the NFL around the same time. The Jaguars debuted as an expansion team in 1995, and the Ravens relocated from Cleveland in 1996.

The Jaguars have a slight lead in the series, 13-11-0. They have not met in the postseason.

Jaguars vs Ravens Prediction: Hot and Healthy

Lamar Jackson is out indefinitely, while backup Tyler Huntley is out with a toe injury. The Ravens need to figure out their quarterback lineup on a short week. They will have support from Derrick Henry and the defense, but that’s only one side of the ball.

Jacksonville’s defense has been strong and stingy in every game except against the Texans in Week 6 in London. Apparently, they don’t travel well. Trevor Lawrence has 1,690 yards and 17 touchdowns, and Bhayshul Tuten has a productive running game. The Jaguars are healthy and hot. Don’t bet against them.

Our Jaguars vs Ravens prediction is another big win for Jacksonville, 32-14. Does anyone else think that Lamar Jackson should play for Jacksonville? Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

On Monday night (November 2), the Oklahoma City Thunder visit Cleveland to face the Cavaliers.

Both teams enter the game at 4-2, but while the Cavs seem to be doing well, the Thunder are struggling with injuries. Some players could be out for extended periods. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Cavaliers vs Thunder prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Cleveland Cavaliers Recent Scores: Tough Atlanta Loss

On October 29, the Atlanta Hawks snapped their 3-game skid by beating the Cavs. That ended Cleveland’s 3-game winning streak. Onyeka Okongwu scored a season-high 29 points for the Hawks. Donovan Mitchell reduced Atlanta’s lead to one point with 20.6 seconds left, but two free throws brought the lead back to 3. Donovan had two chances to tie the game with seconds left but missed both.

On October 31, the Cavs visited Milwaukee and trailed 25-24 after the first quarter. In the second, they exploded with 48 points against Milwaukee’s 21. They shot 62% in that first half, while the Bucks hit just 31%. Mitchell had 15 points on the night.

• Oct 22: at 76ers 106-114 (loss)
• Oct 24: vs Nets 125-121 (win)
• Oct 26: vs Timberwolves 127-125 (win O/T)
• Oct 28: vs Wizards 121-111 (win)
• Oct 29: at Hawks 111-114 (loss)
• Oct 31: at Bucks 136-111 (win)

Oklahoma City Thunder Recent Scores: Extended Injuries

The Thunder began the season with four wins before dropping the next two games.

Their injuries are taking a toll as they only stayed close for the first half of their game against the Mavericks on October 28. They were only down 6 points to start the second half, but that margin steadily grew. While the Mavericks kept a steady pace of about 30 points per quarter, the Thunder dropped to 22 in the third and only 15 in the fourth quarter for their first loss of the season.

On Halloween, the Thunder visited Houston to take on the Rockets. Houston led 35-26 after one quarter, then ran 18-4 to push the lead to 55-34. OKC cut that lead to 62-51 going into the second half before the Rockets had an 8-0 run. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 26 points on 10-of-20 shooting.

• Oct 20: at Spurs 116-104 (win)
• Oct 22: vs Nuggets 96-84 (win)
• Oct 25: vs Clippers 108-101 (win)
• Oct 26: vs Suns 125-114 (win)
• Oct 28: at Mavericks 96-120 (loss)
• Oct 31: at Rockets 98-119 (loss)

Cavaliers vs Thunder History: Seattle to Oklahoma City

The Cavaliers have played the Thunder 127 times since they first began competing against each other in 1970, including when OKC were the Seattle Supersonics.

The Supersonics moved to Oklahoma City in the 2008-2009 season. Since then, the Thunder have led the series 18-17.

In the first two seasons, OKC won every game, but things became more balanced until 1995, when the Thunder again won each game for the next seven seasons. Last season, the Thunder won both games to lead the series 74-53.

In all that time, the two teams have never competed in the playoffs.

Cavaliers vs Thunder Prediction: Thunder Struck

Both teams were contenders last year (conference finalists) and look to do it again this season. The Thunder just have to get healthy first. Out long-term are Chet Holmgren (patellar tendon), Jalen Williams (ankle), Cason Wallace (labrum/shoulder), and others with minor injuries.

The Cavs are playing well at home (3-0), while the Thunder have lost their last two road games by 20+ points. But they still have Shai and can score in bursts, but their two-way impact and rebounding will be limited.

With home advantage, our Cavaliers vs Thunder prediction is a win for the Cavs by something like 120-105. The Thunder should be able to reduce the loss margin to less than 20 points. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NBA season.

Sunday Night Football features a rematch between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Washington Commanders. The game takes place in the nation’s capital and starts at 8:20 pm ET on November 1.

What started as a good year for the Eagles, with wins against the Commanders and Titans, has turned into a long slide to the bottom. The Eagles haven’t won a game since Week 2, but now they have a chance to beat the team they defeated in Week 1. Although that was a slim win and they had Jalen Hurts.

The Commanders are 5.5-point home favorites to even the score with their NFC East rival. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Eagles vs Commanders prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Philadelphia Eagles Recent Scores: Losses Piling Up

In Week 6, Dameon Pierce stepped in for an injured Saquon Barkley and scored a touchdown. Tanner McKee has replaced Jalen Hurts and is still getting accustomed to the role. The Panthers had 399 total yards, while the Eagles managed only 222, partially due to their 11 penalties (Carolina had none).

In Week 7, the Eagles kept pace with the Cowboys until the fourth quarter, when Dallas scored ten unanswered points. Saquon Barkley returned but missed long stretches with physical issues. He finished with 62 yards on seven carries.

• Week 1: vs Commanders 24-22 (win)
• Week 2: at Titans 24-20 (win)
• Week 3: at Bears 7-27 (loss)
• Week 4: at Rams 20-24 (loss)
• Week 5: vs Jaguars 17-19 (loss)
• Week 6: vs Panthers 14-25 (loss)
• Week 7: vs Cowboys 21-38 (loss)

Washington Commanders Recent Scores: Potential Comeback

In Week 5 against the Giants, Washington’s quarterback Jayden Daniels, returning from injury, had a strong running game but squandered a 27-13 lead in the fourth quarter, and the game ended in a tie. Overtime was a comedy of errors for both teams, and it ended with time running out before the Commanders could attempt a game-winning field goal. Neither team had timeouts remaining.

In Week 6, the still undefeated 49ers built a 20-point lead before the Commanders fought back in the second half. Brock Purdy threw for 288 yards and 1 touchdown, while Jayden Daniels threw for 300 yards and 2 touchdowns. He might have completed a comeback but was stopped by a game-ending sack.

• Week 1: at Eagles 22-24 (loss)
• Week 2: at Cowboys 20-37 (loss)
• Week 3: vs Seahawks 33-31 (win)
• Week 4: vs Colts 13-30 (loss)
• Week 5: vs Giants 27-27 (tie)
• Week 6: at 49ers 17-23 (loss)
• Week 7: Bye

Eagles vs Commanders History: Long and Even

These two teams represent one of football’s oldest rivalries, having met 186 times since their first meeting in 1934. Washington leads the close series 91-89-6, with the teams having met only twice in the postseason.

• 1990 Wild Card Game: Washington 20-6 Philadelphia
• 2025 NFC Championship Game: Philadelphia 55-23 Washington

Eagles vs Commanders Prediction: Too Many Injuries

Both teams are struggling, but the Eagles have allowed at least 375 yards in each game of their five-game losing streak. With Tanner McKee replacing Hurts as the Eagles’ starting quarterback and Jayden Daniels returning as the Commanders’ quarterback, that tilts the balance considerably towards Washington.

The Commanders have some injury issues, but the Eagles are injury-laden. Saquon Barkley is sidelined again (hamstring/back, DNP), DeVonta Smith is out (hamstring, DNP), and Dontayvion Wicks and several others are out or limited.

Our Eagles vs Commanders prediction is a 24-17 Washington win as they climb their way out of the NFC East basement now that Jaylen Daniels is back. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

The Carolina Panthers visit Green Bay to face the Packers on Thursday Night Football on October 29. The game starts at 8:15 pm ET with us at PayPerHead.

The Panthers lead the NFC South with a 3-3 record, while the Packers sit at the bottom of the highly competitive NFC North at 4-3. Who will the short week affect more?

Carolina Panthers Recent Scores: Recent Beating

In Week 6, the Eagles continued to struggle without Jalen Hurts, as Tanner McKee started against the Panthers. Running back Saquon Barkley missed the game, causing the Eagles’ running game to suffer as well, totaling only 7 yards. The Panthers got their second win in a row, with a Bye Week in between.

Last week, the Buccaneers dominated the Panthers as Baker Mayfield returned after a three-game absence with a dislocated thumb.

He only made 11 pass attempts, but the team accumulated 258 yards on the ground on 49 carries. Carolina’s Bryce Young leads the NFL in yards passing per game, but he was held to 163 yards, was sacked five times, threw two interceptions and lost a fumble.

They don’t have much luck against the Bucs, losing 6 of their last 7 games with them.

• Week 1: vs Bears 37-59 (loss)
• Week 2: at Falcons 34-3 (win)
• Week 3: at Browns 18-21 (loss)
• Week 4: vs Lions 32-26 (win)
• Week 5: Bye Week
• Week 6: at Eagles 25-14 (win)
• Week 7: vs Buccaneers 13-43 (loss)

Green Bay Packers Recent Scores: Blame the Refs

In Week 6, the Packers took an early two-score lead against the Cowboys. They were ahead 17-0 at halftime. The Cowboys scored in the third and fourth quarters but couldn’t catch the Packers, who won their third straight game.

After two strong performances in Weeks 5 & 6, the Packers had a rough Week 7 as penalties gave the Lions five first downs, the most for Detroit since 2020. The Packers weren’t happy with the refs. The teams matched scores in each quarter except the second, when the Lions went ahead 3-0 and took and held the lead.

• Week 1: at Vikings 22-39 (loss)
• Week 2: at Jets 20-17 (win)
• Week 3: vs Falcons 14-35 (loss)
• Week 4: at Buccaneers 17-14 (win)
• Week 5: vs Bears 31-7 (win)
• Week 6: vs Cowboys 23-13 (win)
• Week 7: at Lions 17-20 (loss)

Panthers vs Packers History: Early Playoff Competition

The teams have met 18 times in the regular season, with Green Bay winning 11 and Carolina 7. Their first encounter was on January 12, 1997, in the postseason for the NFC Championship. It was their only playoff meeting. The Panthers were an expansion team in only their second year of existence. The Packers won 30-13 and went on to win Super Bowl XXXI.

Eight of their last nine games have been decided by single digits, with their most recent game played on November 2, 2025. The Panthers won 16-13.

Panthers vs Packers Prediction: Both Want Comebacks

The Packers are 3.5-point favorites, having home-field advantage, a better-than-average defense, and a more consistent quarterback in Jordan Love. But it’s hard to count the Panthers out. A bounce back from their recent shellacking is very possible. And they did just beat the Packers in November.

On the other hand, the Packers also look to bounce back from their recent loss to the Lions, which could have been a win if their kicker, Trey Smack, didn’t have a bad day.

Our Panthers vs Packers prediction is a close 24-20 home win for Green Bay. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

The Golden State Warriors hope to win their first game of the season on Monday night when they visit the Nuggets in Denver on October 26. The game starts at 7:00 pm ET.

The Nuggets are favored to win by about 7.5 points. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Warriors vs Nuggets prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Golden State Warriors Recent Scores: Preseason Doesn’t Count

The Warriors had a good preseason start, going 4-2. But as we all know, that doesn’t necessarily say anything about the regular season. They beat the Lakers twice in preseason only to lose to them in the opening game. Although Stephen Curry scored 23 points to begin his 18th season, the Lakers stole the show.

New center Walker Kessler scored 26 points on 12-for-12 shooting and nine rebounds. Luka Doncic scored 28, and Austin Reaves netted 23 to start their season without LeBron James.

In their second game, the Warriors led the Grizzlies by 12 with 3:47 left, then Memphis rallied with a 17-0 run. Cameron Boozer got the go-ahead shot with 20 seconds left. He finished with 25 points and 13 rebounds. Stephen Curry had 24 points, and rookie Yaxel Lendeborg added 18 points, 13 rebounds and six assists in his debut.

The Warriors had to play their third game in four days against the Phoenix Suns. It was the first time in 19 years they were winless in their first three games, but they rested several starters, including Curry.

• Game 1: at Lakers 105-127 (loss)
• Game 2: vs Grizzlies 108-111 (loss)
• Game 3: at Suns 122-131 (loss)

Denver Nuggets Recent Scores: Building Momentum

In their first game against the Thunder, they held Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to 17 points on 6-of-19 shooting. It was the first time he didn’t reach at least 20 points in 141 games. But it wasn’t enough for Denver to get the win.

The Pelicans took an early lead in Denver’s second game, going ahead 38-24 in the first quarter. They increased that lead over the next two quarters before the Nuggets rallied back in the fourth to tie it up. Jamal Murray scored 42 points; in overtime, Jokic scored eight of his 35 points, and rookie Trevon Brazile had seven of his 17 points.

• Game 1: at Thunder 84-96 (loss)
• Game 2: vs Pelicans 141-135 (win – O/T)

Warriors vs Nuggets History: 200th Game

This will be the 200th regular-season meeting between the two teams, with Denver leading the series 111-88. They met four times last season, with each team taking 2 home wins.

They’ve met 11 times in the playoffs. The Warriors lead that series 8-3.

Their first season as competitors was in 1976, with both teams winning their two home games.

Warriors vs Nuggets Prediction: Short-handed

The Nuggets are rested after their home win on Saturday, while the Warriors have to travel to mile-high after playing in Phoenix. The Warriors still produced against the Suns even though they sat several key players. If those players are back, the team may stand a chance against the Nuggets. They’re keen not to go 0-4.

Both teams have injuries:

Warriors: Jimmy Butler III (knee), Moses Moody (knee), Kristaps Porzingis (illness/POTS)

Nuggets: Cameron Johnson (ankle/wrist), Alpha Diallo (ankle/wrist), Julian Strawther, Spencer Jones

Warriors’ rookie Lendeborg has shown promise, averaging 18.7 PPG and 8.3 RPG, but Jokic is a major matchup problem for the Warriors, who are without Porzingis.

Our Warriors vs Nuggets prediction is a 128-122 win for Denver. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NBA season.

Sunday Night Football (October 25) features the Chiefs in Seattle, taking on the Seahawks. The game starts at 8:20 pm ET.

The Chiefs are one of three remaining undefeated teams in the NFL. The others are the Vikings (5-0) and the 49ers (6-0). The Seahawks sit behind the 49ers in the NFC West with a 3-3 record. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Chiefs vs Seahawks prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Kansas City Chiefs Recent Scores: Come From Behind

The Dolphins kept it close in Week 3 by kicking a 37-yard field goal in the 3rd quarter to cut the deficit to 14-10. Rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez even got a diving interception off of Mahomes before halftime. But the Chiefs got all the points (10) in the final quarter to clinch the game.

In Week 4, the Chiefs performed a thrilling come-from-behind win against the Raiders in Las Vegas. Quarterback Kirk Cousins threw for 365 yards and 2 touchdowns, but threw 1 late interception on Vegas’ final drive. After the Chiefs scored in the fourth quarter, the Raiders fumbled the kickoff return, allowing Kenneth Walker III to score a 2-yard touchdown.

They beat one of the last winless teams in Week 6 and remained one of the few undefeated teams.

• Week 1: vs Broncos 31-10 (win)
• Week 2: vs Colts 33-30 (win)
• Week 3: at Dolphins 24-10 (win)
• Week 4: at Raiders 30-27 (win)
• Week 5: Bye week
• Week 6: vs Chargers 22-6 (win)

Seattle Seahawks Recent Scores: Losing Streak

The Seahawks started the season off right but have dropped the last two games, leaving them at 3-3.

Their last victory was against the winless Chargers in Week 4. Drake Thomas intercepted Justin Herbert on the Chargers’ first play. Running back Emanuel Wilson led Seattle with 81 rushing yards, 39 receiving yards, and two touchdowns.

In Week 5, the Seahawks lost a tough battle against their division rivals, San Francisco. The 49ers sealed the win with a 43-yard field goal with 1:56 left.

In Week 6, the Broncos managed two touchdowns in the second quarter, which was enough to get them into overtime, where Wil Lutz kicked the winning field goal for Denver.

• Week 3: at Commanders 31-33 (loss)

Chiefs vs Seahawks History: 4-Year Wait

These teams have been clashing since 1977, with the Chiefs leading the series 34-19. Surprisingly, they’ve never met in the postseason.

They last played on December 24, 2022, with Kansas City winning 24-10. The Chiefs have won the last 4 of 5 games.

Chiefs vs Seahawks Prediction: Mahomes and Walker

Kenneth Walker III returns to Seattle, where he played before signing as a free agent with the Chiefs. He’s currently the NFL’s leading rusher (665 yards, 6 TDs on 106 carries in 5 games).

The Seahawks have an elite defense which is first in the NFL in yards allowed (237 YPG). The outcome of the game may depend on how well their defense can contain Walker.

The Chiefs rank 5th in scoring (28.0 PPG) and 2nd in points allowed (16.6 PPG), a very efficient combination. They are favored by 2.5 points, which they should be able to cover in this matchup.

Our Chiefs vs Seahawks prediction is a close win for the Chiefs, something like 23-19. There is a chance that Seattle can surprise the Chiefs and steal a win at home, but Mahomes, Walker and their defense are a powerful trio that is on a roll.

NFC East Division rivals Dallas Cowboys take on the Eagles in Philadelphia on October 26 for Monday Night Football.

Both teams are 2-4 and are hoping to turn their fortunes around. One of them will improve that record in Week 7. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Cowboys vs Eagles prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Dallas Cowboys Recent Scores: Inconsistent Play

In Week 4, the Cowboys had their second victory of the season against the winless Texans (0-4). Dallas was down 16-6 in the first half before mounting a comeback. Javonte Williams scored three rushing touchdowns in the second half, and CeeDee Lamb scored the game-winning touchdown with 40 seconds left.

In Week 5, the Buccaneers’ unsigned rookie quarterback, Jalon Daniels, completed 19 of 25 passes for 189 yards and 1 touchdown in his first career NFL win.

In Week 6 against the Packers, the score could have been more lopsided if three more potential touchdown passes by Jordan Love hadn’t been dropped. Dak Prescott went 34 of 54 for 258 yards, but it’s hard to win when you don’t score. The Cowboys were down 17-0 at halftime.

• Week 1: at Giants 20-28 (loss)
• Week 2: vs Commanders 37-20 (win)
• Week 3: vs Ravens 31-34 (loss)
• Week 4: at Texans 34-30 (win)
• Week 5: vs Buccaneers 16-24 (loss)
• Week 6: at Packers 13-23 (loss)

Philadelphia Eagles Recent Scores: Losing Streak

The Eagles had a good start to the season, winning their first two games against the Commanders and Titans. But since then, they’ve been on a 4-game slide, starting with a 7-27 loss to the Bears.

In Week 4, the Eagles led the Rams 20-10 after three quarters, but Rams running back Kyren Williams scored two late touchdowns in the 4th to get the comeback win. The Eagles didn’t score in the second half. Matthew Stafford went 32-of-51 for 317 yards and 2 interceptions, while Jalen Hurts went 12-of-24 for 93 yards and 2 touchdowns.

Week 5 against the Jaguars was played in London, England. The Eagles led 14-7 after the first half, but their scoring stalled in the second half. Jalen Hurts played through health issues but still completed 21-of-40 passes for 220 yards and a touchdown. The Jaguars won on a walk-off 57-yard field goal that was set up by a 53-yard kickoff return from Ameer Abdullah.

Jalen Hurts is on injury reserve and missed Week 6 against the Panthers. Backup Tanner McKee made his third career start and his first without the Eagles already clinching a playoff berth. He looked out of place most of the game.

• Week 1: vs Commanders 24-22 (win)
• Week 2: at Titans 24-20 (win)
• Week 3: at Bears 7-27 (loss)
• Week 4: vs Rams 20-24 (loss)
• Week 5: vs Jaguars 17-19 (loss)
• Week 6: vs Panthers 14-25 (loss)

Cowboys vs Eagles History: Hot Rivalry

These long-time rivals know each other well, having met 134 times. The Cowboys lead the series 75-59, with no ties, and have met in the playoffs four times.

Their first game was in 1960, and their most recent was on November 23, 2025, with Dallas winning 24-21. The Eagles have won 3 of their last 4 matchups.

Cowboys vs Eagles Prediction: Blood Clot Injury

What started as a blood clot in his calf has travelled to Jalen Hurts’ lungs. He will be out for the season but is expected to make a full recovery. Without Hurts, the scoring will be limited, which is why the Cowboys are favored by 4.5 points.

Dallas has the scoring power while Philadelphia has the better defense. Unfortunately, both teams have been inconsistent. Playing at home will give the Eagles a boost, but the Cowboys will come out swinging to prove their scoring ability.

Our Cowboys vs Eagles prediction is a 24-18 win for the Cowboys, but expect errors on both sides. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

Week 6 takes place in Chicago, where the New England Patriots visit to take on the Bears on Thursday Night Football, October 22.

The Patriots sit below the Bills in the AFC East with a 4-2 record, while the Bears are in the arguably toughest NFC North division with the same 4-2 record, but in third place below the undefeated Vikings and the Packers (also 4-2).

Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Patriots vs Bears prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

New England Patriots Recent Scores: On a Roll

In Week 4, the Patriots handed the Bills their only loss this season. Patriots quarterback Drake Maye threw for 269 yards, three touchdowns and one interception, finishing 22-of-37. Buffalo’s Josh Allen threw for 253 yards, threw a passing touchdown, and also had a rushing touchdown. With the Bills trailing late, Allen threw a fourth-quarter interception and Khalil Shakir fumbled the ball to seal the win for New England.

In Week 5, the Patriots blew out the Raiders, 45-17. Maye passed for a whopping 374 yards (26-of-34), four touchdowns, and a rushing score. The Raiders committed 8 penalties for 101 yards. They brought in rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza in the second half after falling far behind. Unfortunately, that didn’t help their defense.

In Week 6, the Patriots won their third straight game and beat the Jets for the fourth straight time, despite losing three offensive linemen. It was Maye’s third consecutive game with at least 3 touchdown passes. The Jets had a chance to come back in the fourth, but New York’s quarterback, Geno Smith, was picked off by Charles Woods for Geno’s first interception of the season.

• Week 1: at Seahawks 10-13 (loss)
• Week 2: vs Steelers 20-3 (win)
• Week 3: at Jaguars 6-35 (loss)
• Week 4: at Bills 29-26 (win)
• Week 5: vs Raiders 45-17 (win)
• Week 6: vs Jets 26-19 (win)

Chicago Bears Recent Scores: Back to Health

The Bears started the season with a high-scoring win over the Panthers. The 96 combined points were the most points scored in a season opener in NFL history. Week 2 displayed the opposite, with the kickers supplying all the points with field goals.

The Packers dominated the Bears in Week 5, with Green Bay quarterback, Jordan Love passing for 367 yards. Chicago committed five turnovers.

Quarterback Caleb Williams returned in Week 6 against the Falcons, after missing three weeks with a hamstring injury. He completed his first 12 passes. Bears cornerback Kyler Gordon, also returning from injury, had three sacks and two forced fumbles.

• Week 1: at Panthers 59-37 (win)
• Week 2: vs Vikings 3-9 (loss)
• Week 3: vs Eagles 27-7 (win)
• Week 4: vs Jets 23-12 (win)
• Week 5: at Packers 7-31 (loss)
• Week 6: at Falcons 31-23 (win)

Patriots vs Bears History: Super Bowl Rivals

The Bears and Patriots have met only 16 times over 53 years, with New England leading the series 11-5. They first met on October 21, 1973, and last met in November 2024, when the Patriots won 19-3 in Chicago.

Their only postseason game came on January 26, 1986, in Super Bowl XX, which Chicago decisively beat New England 46-10.

Patriots vs Bears Prediction: Thin Offensive Line

New England is on a three-game winning streak, while Caleb Williams is back at QB for Chicago. Both defenses are good and at about the same level.

New England’s offensive line has struggled recently, with several players possibly missing the game due to injuries. Maye’s production in the last three games has been great, posting 10 passing touchdowns and 1 interception, but he could face more pressure on the road, which could limit his performance, especially with a short week, Thursday night game.

Our Patriots vs Bears prediction is a close 24-20 win for the Bears as long as Williams’ hamstring continues to mend. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.
