Week 3 of the 2024 NFL season will conclude with a Monday Night Football doubleheader between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills and the Washington Commanders and Cincinnati Bengals. Both games will be shown on an ABC/ESPN affiliate, with the first game starting 45 minutes before the second to ensure there is always an opportunity to watch football.

Jaguars (0-2) at Bills (2-0)

Betting odds, predictions and how to watch

Buffalo is 2-0 this season and is the favorite in this game as the folks at FanDuel Sportsbook have the odds at Bills -4.5 points.

The Bills offense is currently on fire and has started the season off on a high note with wins over the Cardinals and Dolphins. The Jaguars offense, on the other hand, has struggled and has not even managed to score 20 points in the last two weeks.

Commanders (1-1) at Bengals (0-2)

Betting odds, predictions and how to watch

Despite being 0-2 down, Cincinnati is the clear favorite in this game, as the folks at FanDuel Sportsbook have the odds at Bengals -7.5 points.

The line is probably skewed in favor of the Bengals, as they have appeared to be the better team so far this season. They lost to the Patriots in Week 1, but they had the Chiefs in trouble in Kansas City and probably should have won that game. Meanwhile, the Commanders were thrashed by the Bucs in Week 1 and beaten by a bad Giants team in Week 2 after former Lions kicker Austin Seibert made seven (!) field goals in one day.

Erik’s prediction: Bengals win 27-18

Date: Monday, 23 September 2024
