Monday Night Football is coming from the West Coast on October 19. The Washington Commanders travel to San Francisco to take on one of the last undefeated teams.

That’s a tall order from a team with only one win, but at least it came against the Seattle Seahawks, which is a good sign. These are the only two teams the Seahawks lost to this season. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Commanders vs 49ers prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Washington Commanders Recent Scores: Daniels is Key

Commanders’ starting quarterback Jayden Daniels dislocated his left elbow in Week 2 against the Cowboys. In the first quarter of Week 4, backup QB Marcus Mariota suffered a knee injury against the Colts. Rookie Athan Kaliakmanis completed the game, and Daniels returned for Game 5 against the Giants.

Their only win so far came against the Seahawks in Week 3, giving them hope they can beat San Francisco. Washington’s secondary was key in that win, forcing three turnovers that the team capitalized on.

Week 4 took place in London, with the Commanders and Colts facing off. Mariota suffered a sprained MCL on their second possession. Kaliakmanis completed 15 of 33 passes for 186 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. 

• 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)

San Francisco 49ers Recent Scores: Win Through Injuries

The 49ers are 5-0, but have had two close calls.

In Week 3 against the Cardinals, they continued to lose key players to injuries. Wide receiver Mike Evans sustained a rib injury in the first half, and left tackle Trent Williams was taken out in the second half. But quarterback Brock Purdy kept the team in the game with four touchdown passes. That’s 10 total touchdowns in three games, which ties him for a franchise record for the most after three games.

In Week 5 against the Seahawks, the 49ers looked to lose their first game of 2026. But Brock Purdy found Mike Evans, whom they signed in March, several times on the go-ahead touchdown drive. That was a bit of payback for the 41-6 loss in the divisional round of the playoffs.

• Week 1: at Rams 27-7 (win)
• Week 2: vs Dolphins 35-13 (win)
• Week 3: vs Cardinals 36-30 (win)
• Week 4: vs Broncos 24-14 (win)
• Week 5: at Seahawks 32-29 (win)

Commanders vs 49ers History: Long-Time Rivals

The Commanders and 49ers have competed since 1952 and have met 36 times. The 49ers are winning the series 23-12-1. They’ve played four postseason games, with San Francisco winning three. The most recent was in 1992.

They last met on December 31, 2023, when the 49ers won 27-10.

Commanders vs 49ers Prediction: Injury Issues

While Washington’s Daniels is back on the roster, San Francisco’s injury issues keep piling up. They lost wide receiver Deebo Samuel in Week 5 due to a right hamstring strain, leaving only four fully healthy wideouts.

But San Francisco’s elite offensive efficiency and red-zone conversion vs Washington’s weak red-zone defense will have an impact on the game’s score. The 49ers are 7.5-point favorites for their home game. They will win it, but their depleted roster will let the Commanders keep it close.

Our Commanders vs 49ers prediction is a San Francisco win, but the Commanders will cover the spread for a final score of 28-24. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

Sunday Night Football features the Dallas Cowboys visiting the Packers on October 18. The game starts at 8:20 pm ET.

The Packers are coming home after a huge Week 5 win over the Bears in Chicago, while the Cowboys lost at home to the Buccaneers in a relatively low-scoring game.

The Packers beat the Bucs in Week 4 in another low-scoring game. That gives a clue to which team is favored in this matchup. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Cowboys vs Packers prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Dallas Cowboys Recent Scores: Prescott Can Pass

Week 2 against the Commanders marked Dak Prescott’s 249th touchdown pass, setting a new record. It broke Tony Romo’s career franchise record of 248 touchdown passes.

CeeDee Lamb had his best performance in Week 4 against the Texans with a career-high 17 receptions for 189 receiving yards. He also caught the go-ahead 12-yard touchdown pass with 40 seconds left in the game.

The Cowboys gave the Bucs their first win in Week 5.

• 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)

Green Bay Packers Recent Scores: Trampled Bears

Week 1 was difficult for the Packers as they blew a 22-17 lead late in the third quarter. The Vikings scored 22 unanswered points to win. Although the Packers had almost twice as many total yards (419 vs Vikings 239), they were hampered by third-down efficiency (3/12 vs Vikings 8/15), turnovers, and penalties (12 for 98 yards vs Vikings 3 for 15 yards).

The Packers weren’t taking any chances in Week 5. They had lost to the Bears in their last two matchups after being ahead by double digits in the fourth quarter. That included an NFC wild-card 31-27 playoff loss. Jordan Love threw for 367 yards, the most by a Packers quarterback against the Bears at Lambeau Field. Their defense forced five turnovers.

• 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)

Cowboys vs Packers History: Packers By a Lot

These rivals have been tackling each other since their first meeting in November 1960.

They’ve met 40 times with the Packers leading the rivalry 22-17-1. But their postseason games are what really fired up that rivalry. They played nine playoff games against each other, with the Packers winning the first two and the last three. The Cowboys won the four in between.

From 1992 to 1997, the teams combined for five Super Bowl appearances and four Super Bowl championships.

Since 2000, they’ve met three times in the postseason:

• 2014 NFC Divisional – Packers won: 26-21
• 2016 NFC Divisional – Packers won: 34-31
• 2023 NFC Wild Card – Packers won: 48-32

The Packers are 10-1-1 in the last 12 meetings, including playoffs.

Cowboys vs Packers Prediction: Cowboys Must Rush

The Packers, who have a better record, are playing at home, and were able to beat the Bucs (which the Cowboys couldn’t), are only 1.5-point favorites in this game.

The Cowboys’ defense has holes that the Packers and Love can exploit. But both teams can put up high numbers on offense. This could turn into a shootout unless the secondaries can stop the pass. The Packers are bad at stopping the running game.

Our Cowboys vs Packers prediction is a 30-24 win for the Packers, as they’ll easily cover the spread. Remember, the Packers are 10-1-1 against the Cowboys in the last 12 meetings. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

Seattle will fly to Denver to take on the Broncos in Thursday Night Football. The game starts October 15 at 8:15 pm ET.

Seattle is 3-2 after 5 weeks and is falling behind the undefeated first-place San Francisco 49ers in the NFC West. The Broncos have the same record, sitting in second place behind the Kansas City Chiefs (also undefeated) in the AFC West. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Seahawks vs Broncos prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Seattle Seahawks Recent Scores: Standout Linebacker

Week 2 against the Cardinals was a blowout win, but all of the other games were won or lost by a score or less.

In Week 3, the Seahawks were handed their first loss in 13 games. Backup linebacker Kain Medrano replaced Leo Chenal, who suffered a neck injury late in the second. With 3:57 left, Medrano made the play of the game, picking off a Sam Darnold pass over the middle and running it back for a touchdown. The Seahawks quickly retaliated with their own touchdown, but it wasn’t enough to get past the Commanders.

• Week 1: vs Patriots 13-10 (win)
• Week 2: at Cardinals 31-7 (win)
• Week 3: at Commanders 31-33 (loss)
• Week 4: vs Chargers 30-23 (win)
• Week 5: vs 49ers 29-32 (loss)

Denver Broncos Recent Scores: Comeback Wins

With the Chiefs and 49ers not giving up any games so far, it’s no surprise that Denver couldn’t beat them either. But the Broncos have won against every other team they’ve faced.

In Week 2, they fell behind in the first half against the Jaguars, 13-3. But strong performances from wide receiver Jaylen Waddle and rookie running back Jonah Coleman helped the Broncos get the lead in the final quarter. Waddle caught eight passes for 138 yards, and Coleman scored his first NFL touchdown.

Week 4 showcased another comeback win. The Rams were up 16-0 at halftime. This time, Talanoa Hufanga and Brandon Jones helped secure the win, giving Matthew Stafford 17 comebacks in the last two minutes.

Week 5 was a gift, as the division rival Chargers have yet to win a game this season.

• Week 1: at Chiefs 10-31 (loss)
• Week 2: vs Jaguars 20-13 (win)
• Week 3: vs Rams 30-26 (win)
• Week 4: at 49ers 14-24 (loss)
• Week 5: at Chargers 23-17 (win)

Seahawks vs Broncos History: Super Bowl Clash

In their 58 meetings, the Broncos have won 35, while the Seahawks have won 23. They first met on October 2, 1977, and the Seahawks have won the last two matchups. They also dominated in the postseason, winning both encounters by a large margin.

• 1983 AFC Wild Card: Seahawks won 31-7 (Seattle gets their first playoff win)
• 2013 Super Bowl XLVIII: Seahawks won 43-8

Seahawks vs Broncos Prediction: Uphill Battle

Denver’s offense has not been consistent this season, tending to underperform against better teams. Seattle lost a tough one against San Francisco in Week 5, with four turnovers helping them get there.

Now they have to play in Denver’s thin air in a short week. The Broncos’ two best wins (against the Jaguars and the Rams) came at home, yet the Seahawks are still 2.5-point favorites.

Our Seahawks vs Broncos prediction is a Seattle win, but most likely a close, back-and-forth game. Seattle 28-24 Broncos.

That said, the Broncos could easily win if their pass rush can maintain its heavy blitz rate and repeat the five sacks it recorded in Week 5. Remember to follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

For nearly 30 years, Pay Per Head has supported thousands of bookies with software designed around the way agents actually work.  

One-Size-Fits-All Doesn’t Work for Bookies 

Sportsbook agents come in every shape and size. Some manage a small, steady group of players where the day-to-day is predictable. Others are juggling constant action, multiple sub-agents, and a book that’s growing faster than a single spreadsheet — or a single generic platform — can handle. 

Pay Per Head built its software around that reality instead of ignoring it. Rather than forcing every agent into the same fixed feature set, the company offers two distinct sportsbook software solutions, each designed for a different kind of day-to-day operation. 

Two Solutions, One Platform Philosophy 

Pay Per Head offers two distinct sportsbook software solutions, each designed for a different kind of day-to-day operation. Both are backed by the same reliable infrastructure, but they are tailored to match the complexity of the book they support. 

CORE: Built for Straightforward Operations 

For agents whose business is easy to manage with a simple, consistent setup, CORE delivers the essential tools an agent needs without extra complexity. It is designed around three ideas: 

• Straightforward daily operation that doesn’t require constant adjustment 

• A setup simple enough to manage directly, without a learning curve 

• All key tools included at one simple price 

ADVANCED: Built for More Demanding Books 

For agents managing a busier, more involved operation, ADVANCED hands over more control where it matters most. It is built for: 

• Higher-volume, more demanding daily operations 

• Deeper control over limits, lines, and risk management 

• Businesses that have outgrown a simple setup 

The distinction matters because the wrong fit — too little control for a growing book, or too much complexity for a lean operation — creates friction that slows an agent down. By offering two purpose-built paths instead of one, Pay Per Head lets agents choose the tool that matches their actual workload rather than adapting their workload to the tool. 

Player Migration and Portfolio Transfers 

For agents switching from another provider, Pay Per Head’s Player Portfolio Migration Program makes the transition straightforward. The platform is built to transfer an agent’s full player base — regardless of size — with minimal downtime. This means agents can move their operation to Pay Per Head without the risk of losing players or disrupting their daily business. 

Support That Matches the Platform’s Flexibility 

A flexible platform is only as useful as the support behind it. Pay Per Head backs ADVANCED with round-the-clock assistance, so agents can get help with limits, reporting, or player management whenever their business demands it — not just during standard business hours. 

Agents can also review common questions directly on the company’s FAQs page or reach the team through Contact Us for guidance on which solution fits their operation. 

Choosing the Right Fit, Not Just a Bigger Feature List 

Pay Per Head’s approach reflects a simple idea: better software is not about cramming in every possible feature, it is about giving agents the right set of tools for how they operate. Whether that means a lean, dependable setup or a more robust platform with deeper controls, the goal stays the same — helping agents run their business with less friction and more confidence.

Week 5 Monday Night Football is an electric matchup where the Buffalo Bills travel to Los Angeles to take on the Rams.

The Bills lead the AFC East, unbeaten until Week 4 against the Patriots. The 2-2 Rams are sitting in third place in the NFC West and need a win if they hope to gain ground on the Seahawks and 49ers. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Bills vs Rams prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Buffalo Bills Recent Scores: Lots of Offense

Weeks 1 and 2 were virtual shootouts for the Bills as they outscored the Texans and the Lions.

Week 2 against the Lions marked their first game in their new digs at Highmark Stadium. They outscored Detroit in the first quarter, 14-0 and never looked back. Josh Allen threw three touchdown passes and rushed for two more.

The Bills dodged a bullet in Week 3 as the Chargers struggled to capitalize on five Bills turnovers.

While the Patriots chugged along in Week 4, scoring on the Bills in each quarter, Buffalo scored 17 points in the second quarter and were kept quiet for the first and third. Buffalo mustered 9 points in the final quarter, but New England countered with 8 to stay ahead 29-21

• Week 1: at Texans 36-31 (win)
• Week 2: vs Lions 41-34 (win)
• Week 3: vs Chargers 24-16 (win)
• Week 4: vs Patriots 26-29 (loss)

Los Angeles Rams Recent Scores: Interceptions and Comebacks

Their game against the Broncos was probably the most exciting match of Week 3. The Rams built a 16-0 lead by halftime with a touchdown and three field goals. In the second half, Bo Nix and the Broncos came alive, with Talaoa Hufanga intercepting a Matthew Stafford pass for a 66-yard touchdown to put the Broncos ahead 23-19.

Stafford immediately answered with a 48-yard touchdown pass, putting the Rams back ahead 26-23. To cap off the excitement, Nix rushed for a 1-yard touchdown with 47 seconds left, and Hufanga made his second interception to ensure the win.

But in Week 4, the Rams were down 20-17 late in the fourth quarter when they got a break from Eagles coach Nick Sirianni. Instead of kicking a field goal on fourth-and-goal, they tried to score but failed. With 1:10 left, the Rams managed to score and take the lead. Defense guaranteed the win when outside linebacker Byron Young sacked Jalen Hurts twice and forced a fumble.

• Week 1: vs 49ers 7-27 (loss)
• Week 2: vs Giants 28-6 (win)
• Week 3: at Broncos 26-30 (loss)
• Week 4: at Eagles 24-20 (win)

Bills vs Rams History: Another Shootout?

The Bills’ rivalry with the Rams has been ongoing since 1970, with the teams meeting two or three times a decade. They’ve played a total of 15 times, with the Bills leading the series 9-6-0. But they’ve never met in the postseason.

The last time they clashed was in December 2024, when the Rams squeaked past the Bills in a 44-42 shootout. Not all their games end in high scores, but there are enough to make you wonder if this will be another offensive extravaganza.

Bills vs Rams Prediction: Home Advantage?

The Rams are 2.5-point home favorites, due to Buffalo’s Week 4 loss to the Patriots and Los Angeles’ comeback win against the Eagles. The Bills score more points, but their defense isn’t as tight as LA’s.

Our Bills vs Rams prediction goes against the experts, as we think Josh Allen and the Bills have a stronger, more consistent offense.

Yes, the Rams have home advantage and are coming off a win, but Stafford’s interceptions in Weeks 3 and 4 could be a concern. Bills to win it 32-26. Follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

The Baltimore Ravens visit Atlanta to take on the Falcons in Week 5 of the 2026 NFL season. Kickoff is at 5:20 pm ET.

While the Falcons offense is reenergized with one of its main quarterbacks back in the lineup, the Ravens may have to do without theirs.

Backup Tyler Huntley played the second half of the Week 4 game against the Titans, switching to a more conservative Ravens offense. Keep an eye on Lamar Jackson’s injury report. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Ravens vs Falcons prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Baltimore Ravens Recent Scores: High-Scoring

After a disappointing 2025, the Ravens’ offense exploded in Week 1 against the Colts for a total of 506 yards. The Colts scored on their opening drive, but then the Ravens took control and scored on four of their next five drives to put up 31 points in the first half alone.

They lost that momentum in Week 2, giving the Saints their only win so far this season.

In Week 4, the Ravens jumped to a 17-point lead by halftime. Zay Flowers had six catches for 119 yards and a touchdown. But quarterback Lamar Jackson sustained an ankle injury in the dying seconds of the first half and didn’t return. The Titans attempted a comeback, but Baltimore’s defense held them off long enough to run out the clock.

• Week 1: at Colts 41-23 (win)
• Week 2: vs Saints 17-24 (loss)
• Week 3: at Cowboys 34-31 (win)
• Week 4: vs Titans 24-18 (win)

Atlanta Falcons Recent Scores: Penix Shines

With Michael Penix Jr. and Tua Tagovailoa still out of commission, Cooper Rush started in Weeks 1 & 2. He couldn’t score against the Panthers, who had their fourth consecutive win against the Falcons. Panthers defensive tackle Devin Lloyd had nine tackles, a sack, and two interceptions, returning one for a pick-six.

QB Penix returned for Week 3 against the Packers and guided the offense to a total of 498 yards. Running back Bijan Robinson had 213 total yards and two touchdowns. WR Drake London had 9 receptions for 194 yards.

Penix continued to add on the points in Week 4, this time focusing on the ground game against the Saints. They had 207 total rushing yards and five touchdowns. But Penix also completed 15 of 20 passes for 223 yards and a touchdown.

• Week 1: at Steelers 13-20 (loss)
• Week 2: vs Panthers 3-30 (loss)
• Week 3: at Packers 35-14 (win)
• Week 4: at Saints 45-24 (win)

Ravens vs Falcons History: Not Much Contact

These teams are almost strangers, having played each other only seven times since their first meeting in 1999.

The Ravens lead the series 5-2-0, with Baltimore winning the last three clashes. Their last meeting was on December 24, 2022, in Baltimore, with a final score of Falcons 9-17 Ravens.

They have yet to meet in the postseason.

Ravens vs Falcons Prediction: Birds of Prey

Both teams have won their last two games and scored impressively. The Ravens are currently 3.5-point favorites. However, Lamar Jackson may miss this game, which will lessen their chance of winning.

We think the Falcons have the edge even if Jackson is fit to play. Without Penix Jr., Atlanta’s offense was non-functioning. With him, they’re breaking new ground.

Our prediction goes against the experts, as we think the Falcons are on a roll with Penix Jr. at the helm. He’s racking up the points on offense, even when switching from an air assault to a ground game.

And their defense is also pulling its weight. We predict Atlanta will win 38-26. Follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

Thursday night’s NFL game pits the Buccaneers against the Cowboys in Dallas. Kickoff is at 8:15 pm ET.

The Dallas defense might be less than optimal, but their offense will continue producing high numbers. The Bucs will experience growing pains with rookie Jalon Daniels at the helm as Baker Mayfield is expected to miss three to six weeks with a dislocated right thumb.

The focus will be on Tampa Bay’s defense to stem the tide from Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. They’re scoring in bunches. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Buccaneers vs Cowboys prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Recent Scores: Close But No Cigar

After 4 weeks, the NFC South Buccaneers are still looking for their first win.

They can be forgiven for losing to the Vikings, one of only three unbeaten teams in the league. The Chiefs and 49ers are the other 4-0 teams. The Bucs showed resilience, staying within a score in each game, as none were blowouts.

In Week 4 against the Packers, Baker Mayfield missed his first game in over three seasons because of a dislocated thumb. Undrafted rookie Daniels threw two picks that led to 10 points in his first career start.

• 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)

Dallas Cowboys Recent Scores: Lamb Makes Debut

The Cowboys are 2-2 in the NFC East after 4 weeks.

They had an easy win against the 1-3 Commanders in Week 2. In Week 3 against the Ravens, both offenses were dominant, but it was Tyler Loop’s 56-yard field goal in the final seconds which secured the win for the Ravens.

Week 4 was an equally high-scoring game against the Texans. This time, WR CeeDee Lamb scored the winning touchdown with a 12-yard reception and 40 seconds left. Lamb had a career-high 17 catches for 189 yards.

• 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)

Buccaneers vs Cowboys History: It’s All Dallas

These teams have met 23 times since their first game in 1976. The Cowboys have dominated the series, winning 17 and losing only 6.

Three of those matchups were postseason games, and Dallas eliminated Tampa Bay in all three:

• 2022 NFC Wild Card Game: Cowboys 31-14 Buccaneers
• 1982 NFC Wild Card Game: Buccaneers 17-30 Cowboys
• 1981 NFC Divisional Playoff Game: Buccaneers 0-38 Cowboys

Their closest game was the most recent one in December, 2024, when Dallas won 26-24.

Buccaneers vs Cowboys Prediction: Rookie On Hot Seat

Dallas has shown a consistently high output from their offense since Week 2. Expect them to get around 30 points against the Bucs, while Tampa Bay will be lucky to break the 20-point mark if Mayfield remains out of commission.

Maybe rookie Daniels just needed to shake off the butterflies and will do much better on Thursday. Dallas has one of the weaker defenses in the league by EPA, unfortunately for the Bucs, Dallas has home advantage, putting even more pressure on Bucs rookie Daniels.

Our Buccaneers vs Cowboys prediction is a Cowboys win, but the Bucs could keep it closer than expected. The Cowboys will come out firing on all cylinders, and Tampa Bay’s defense will be able to slow down Prescott and his crew a little bit.

But the final score will be something like 28-22 for Dallas. Follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

Week 4 – Monday Night Football will feature the Atlanta Falcons visiting New Orleans to take on the Saints on October 5 at 7:15 pm ET.

Both teams are in the NFC South Division and are 1-2, tied with the Panthers. The Buccaneers sit at the bottom at 0-3. This divisional game will at least break up the logjam. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Falcons vs Saints prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Atlanta Falcons Recent Scores: Rush Unremarkable

The Falcons had a rough start to the season, losing their first two games.

Week 1 was promising, as the Falcons kept it close until T.J. Watt, the Steelers linebacker, intercepted a Cooper Rush throw and returned it for a touchdown. Those seven points were the spread.

In Week 2, Cooper Rush continued to fill in for Michael Penix Jr. (knee) and Tua Tagovailoa (oblique). He completed 10 of 17 passes for 86 yards with two interceptions and lost a fumble.

Week 3 saw the return of Penix, who completed 18 of 25 passes for 256 yards, 1 touchdown and an interception. Bijan Robinson set his season high with 194 rushing yards.

Week 1: at Steelers 13-20 (loss)

Week 2: vs Panthers 3-34 (loss)

Week 3: at Packers 35-14 (win)

New Orleans Saints Recent Scores: Shough-ing Character

The Saints rallied from a 21-point deficit to force overtime in Week 1. However, the Lions won on their final play as the Saints missed a 2-point conversion attempt. New Orleans’ quarterback Tyler Shough struggled with interceptions and a lost fumble early in the game, but reversed that with back-to-back scoring drives.

The Saints had a slow start in Game 2 against the Ravens, but eventually made key plays to secure the win, including scoring on a fourth-and-goal and safety Juian Blackmon intercepting the ball for the win.

The Raiders overcame an 11-point deficit to beat the Saints in Week 3. That gave the Raiders a 3-0 record, tying their 2025 win total.

Week 1: at Lions 30-31 (loss)

Week 2: at Ravens 24-17 (win)

Week 3: vs Raiders 27-35 (loss)

Falcons vs Saints History: Close Competitors

The Falcons joined the league in 1966. The Saints entered a year later as an expansion team (1967), and their rivalry began. They’ve played each other 114 times in total, with the Falcons leading the series 58-56. You can’t get much closer than that.

The teams have met only once in the postseason, with the Falcons winning the 1991 NFC Wild Card Game.

Their last game was on January 4, 2026, with Atlanta hosting and winning a close one, 19-17.

Falcons vs Saints Prediction: Underdog Win

The Falcons get a rare extended break after playing on Thursday in Week 3 and can rest until Monday. With Penix back in the lineup, the Falcons are a real threat again, as shown in their Week 3 win against Green Bay. And Bijan Robinson has consistently produced on the ground, which should continue in Week 4 and beyond.

The Saints may have lost against the Raiders in Week 3, but quarterback Tyler Shough has thrown for 917 yards and eight touchdowns through three games, as they average 27 points per game.

The Saints are 2.5-point home favorites, with a total of 48.5 points. The underdogs could easily take this one.

Our Falcons vs Saints prediction is a high-scoring, one-goal game. We think the visiting team will get the win, as they are hungry to prove their capabilities after being held back for two games by a backup QB. Falcons to win it 26-23. Follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

On Sunday afternoon, the New England Patriots will visit Buffalo to clash with the Bills. The game starts at 1 pm ET on October 4.

The Bills are one of five unbeaten teams left in the league going into Week 4. AFC East Division rivals, the Patriots, have only one win so far this season. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Patriots vs Bills prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

New England Patriots Recent Scores: Lacking Offense

The Patriots have been inconsistent on both sides of the ball so far and will have a rough time trying to subdue the Bills’ offense.

In Week 1, their defense kept the Seahawks to only 13 points, but their offense wasn’t able to generate enough points for a win.

Week 2 saw New England’s offense and defense work in perfect harmony as they beat the Steelers 20-3.

But in Week 3, the Patriots regressed to their Week 1 style of play as they were ruined by the Jaguars 35-6.

• Week 1: at Seahawks 10-13 (loss)
• Week 2: vs Steelers 20-3 (win)
• Week 3: at Jaguars 6-35 (loss)

Buffalo Bills Recent Scores: Josh Allen Records

The Bills are playing some of their best ball as their offense makes up for any shortcomings in their defense to secure wins in each week of the 2026 season so far.

Quarterback Josh Allen became the first player in NFL history with at least five touchdown passes and three touchdown runs through the first two games of the season. He also recorded his fourth career game with three touchdown passes and two touchdown runs. No other player has done that more than twice. And he became the fastest quarterback to reach 300 touchdowns in the regular season (129 games).

In Week 1, the Bills defeated the Texans on the road for the first time since 2006. It was an offensive shootout.

In Week 2, Allen had three passing touchdowns and two rushing touchdowns for 248 yards and no interceptions despite experiencing flu-like symptoms before the game.

Week 3 showed a less aggressive offense, but the defense was able to get them the win as Allen threw 2 interceptions.

Week 1: at Texans 36-31 (win)

Week 2: vs Lions 41-31 (win)

Week 3: vs Chargers 24-16 (win)

Patriots vs Bills History: Tom Brady Dominated

Since 1960, these teams have played 133 games against each other. New England leads the series 80-52-1, which includes two postseason games. The Patriots won the 1963 AFL Divisional Playoff Game, 26-8, while the Bills won the more recent AFC Wild Card Game 47-17 on January 15, 2022.

Tom Brady dominated the series 32-3 while with the Patriots. Since 2020, the Bills have had the edge, 9-4, winning the most recent matchup 35-31 on December 14, 2025.

Patriots vs Bills Prediction: Maye is Struggling

New England’s quarterback, Drake Maye, hasn’t thrown a touchdown since Week 1, but has thrown six interceptions. The team is scoring only 12 points per game, the fewest in the NFL, along with the winless Dolphins. They need to run the ball more to limit the turnovers.

There is speculation that Buffalo’s Josh Allen has some health issues after a physical Week 3 game against the Chargers. But the Bills are still 6.5-point favorites.

Our Patriots vs Bills prediction is another big win for the Bills, as long as Josh Allen is healthy. Buffalo should easily cover the spread, winning 32-13.

That’s below the 48.5 total only because New England’s offense is struggling so badly. Follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.

The Detroit Lions are looking for their first road win of the season as they visit Carolina to take on the Panthers for Sunday Night Football in Week 4. The game kicks off at 8:20 pm on October 4.

Both are NFC teams, with the Lions tied for second in the North Division with a 2-1 record, while somehow the Panthers lead the South Division with a 1-2 record. Actually, the Panthers are in a three-way tie for first, while the Buccaneers sit in the basement with a 0-3 record.

While the Lions look good on paper, the Panthers are actually playing better than their record suggests. Here at PayPerHead, you’ll find our Lions vs Panthers prediction and everything you need to know ahead of this game.

Detroit Lions Recent Scores: Consistent Offense

Detroit’s Week 1 win against the Saints was a roller coaster ride of changing leads, missed field goals, overtime and missed 2-point conversions. The Lions’ defense held strong at the end to prevent the Saints from scoring on their final possession.

The Lions’ offense stayed consistent in all three weeks, but their defense couldn’t contain the Bills in Week 2. The Bills scored 2 TDs in the opening quarter, while the Lions scored none. The teams were pretty even for the next 2 quarters, and the Lions tried to catch up in the fourth, but it was too little, too late.

The Lions beat the Jets in Week 3, but it was New York’s Jahmyr Gibbs who stole the spotlight, being the first player in NFL history to accomplish at least 300 yards, four rushing touchdowns, 150 yards receiving and two touchdown receptions through three games.

• Week 1: vs Saints 31-30 (win)
• Week 2: at Bills 31-41 (loss)
• Week 3: vs Jets 31-24 (win)

Carolina Panthers Recent Scores: Mistakes Were Made

The Panthers visited the Bears for their season opener and were crushed 59-37 in the highest-scoring season opener in NFL history. RB D’Andre Swift rushed for 124 yards on 18 carries, which included a 61-yard touchdown run in the second half. Their offense looked great, but the defense was no match for Chicago’s QB Caleb Williams.

Carolina’s offense continued to hum along in Week 2 against the Falcons, but this time, the defense was equally impressive, as they allowed only 286 yards, including 72 rushing yards by Bijan Robinson.

In Week 3, the Panthers took an 18-13 lead with 4:25 remaining, but they couldn’t hold on to it as Cleveland regained the lead. The Panthers made their last offensive drive, and with 9 seconds remaining, Bryce Young threw his second turnover of the game to end their chances of a comeback.

• Week 1: vs Bears 37-59 (loss)
• Week 2: at Falcons 34-3 (win)
• Week 3: at Browns 18-21 (loss)

Lions vs Panthers History: 27 Years Long

These teams have played each other only 12 times since their first meeting in 1999. Carolina has won 8 of those. The Panthers have an excellent home record, 6-1. Their last three meetings:

• Oct 8, 2023: Panthers 24 – 42 Lions
• Dec 24, 2022: Lions 23 – 37 Panthers
• Nov 22, 2020: Lions 0 – 20 Panthers

Lions vs Panthers Prediction: Panthers are Beat Up

The Sunday night spotlight returns to the Carolina Panthers after 10 years. Unfortunately, they’re banged up on both sides of the ball, going up against a strong Detroit team, which is a 3.5-point favorite.

Even QB Bryce Young is sore after taking a beating against the Browns last Sunday. With the Lions’ defense having the eighth-best pressure rate and the third-most blitzes, I don’t see Carolina’s offense getting many points.

Our Lions vs Panthers prediction is a 25-18 Detroit win. Follow us on social media to stay tuned this NFL season.
