Cleveland Browns @ Tennessee Titans

Sunday, live on Sky Sports NFL, 6pm

0:30 Derrick Henry scores a third touchdown in the first half of the Titans’ win over the Colts

REINEBOLD PICKS: Titans

“What was so impressive for me last week was, Derrick Henry did it against the Colts, who play great fundamental defence. He took that defence – albeit without DeForest Buckner in there – and got after them.

“Power football as its best. I’m riding with Henry and the Titans.”

BALDINGER PICK: Titans

“Henry is a superhero! He is just built differently to anybody else. Game after game, defenders can’t get him down, while his breakaway speed is what separates him – he’s a real track star – and it doesn’t look like any amount of carries wears him down. In fact, it’s vice versa, he wears defences down.”

IRANI PICK: Titans

Los Angeles Rams @ Arizona Cardinals

Sunday, live on Sky Sports NFL, 9.05pm

REINEBOLD PICKS: Rams

“As bad as Jared Goff played last week, you can still see a lot of good things about the Rams.

“I think they’re the better football team all around when you compare them to Arizona. If the Cardinals don’t give their quarterback at least eight runs a game, their winning percentage goes way down – they’re 6-1 on the season when he does but have a losing record when he doesn’t.”

BALDINGER PICK: Cardinals

“Against the Patriots, for the first time this year, Kyler Murray did not throw for a touchdown and did not run for a touchdown.

“They forced him to stay and throw in the pocket and, every time he tried to run out, they kept him boxed in; they had a great game plan for him.

“But I’m backing him and the Cardinals to bounce back in this one.”

IRANI PICK: Rams

Denver Broncos @ Kansas City Chiefs

Sunday Night Football, live on Sky Sports NFL, Monday, 1.20am

1:46 Jay Ajayi tells NFL Overtime the Patrick Mahomes-led Kansas City Chiefs have a good chance of winning back-to-back Super Bowls

REINEBOLD PICKS: Chiefs

“They used to call Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin with the Cowboys, ‘The Triplets’. Well, the Chiefs have the triplets for the 21st century with a tight end in Travis Kelce to accompany Patrick Mahomes and Tyreek Hill.

“In all of my years watching the NFL, I cannot remember anyone having a first quarter like Hill had against Tampa Bay last Sunday – he singlehandedly destroyed them. There are a lot of fast guys in the league, but he is a whole new level of fast.

“And then you have a quarterback in Mahomes, who has thrown 30 touchdowns to only two interceptions – some goofy stat like that.

“Until somebody shows me that they can defend them, the Chiefs are looking more and more like the Super Bowl favourites and the best team in football.”

1:37 Tyreek Hill had seven receptions for 203 yards and two touchdowns in the first quarter against the Buccaneers

BALDINGER PICK: Chiefs

IRANI PICK: Chiefs

Washington Football Team @ Pittsburgh Steelers

Monday, live on Sky Sports NFL, 10pm

5:14 Highlights of the Ravens against the Steelers from Week 12 of the NFL

REINEBOLD PICKS: Steelers

“The Steelers did not play well against Baltimore. But they did what good teams do, which is win games against good opponents when you’re not at the top of your game.

“Don’t sleep on Washington, because they are better than a lot of people give them credit for. But I still think the Steelers have too many weapons for them across the board.”

BALDINGER PICK: Steelers

“I’m going with Pittsburgh. The Steelers have no weaknesses on their football team.”

IRANI PICK: Steelers

Buffalo Bills @ San Francisco 49ers

Monday Night Football, live on Sky Sports NFL, Tuesday, 1.15am

1:28 Watch as Kyler Murray’s Hail Mary pass finds DeAndre Hopkins in the endzone to see the Cardinals beat the Bills in their earlier meeting

REINEBOLD PICKS: Bills

“This is going to be played in Arizona, and the last time Buffalo were in that building it was a house of horrors for them after the ‘Hail Murray’ touchdown to win the game for the Cardinals.

“But I really think the Bills recognise where they are right now and they’ve got a chance to make a major step towards winning the AFC East division. They’re not going to overlook San Francisco.”

BALDINGER PICK: 49ers

“The 49ers are getting healthy at key positions and have four good corners to match up versus Buffalo’s spread attack. And they’ve got their two best running backs back.”

IRANI PICK: Bills

Dallas Cowboys @ Baltimore Ravens

Tuesday night, live on Sky Sports NFL, Wednesday, 1.05am

REINEBOLD PICKS: Ravens

“The Cowboys flat out suck! I very rarely make that strong of a statement, but they’re bad on defence, are so banged up on the offensive line – they can’t block – and, yes, they have great wide receivers, but they’ve only got a game-manager at quarterback in Andy Dalton. That’s just the reality.

“As for the Ravens, they had a bunch of guys off the practice roster lining up against a 10-0 Steelers team on Wednesday and they played them close – gave themselves a chance to win the game.

“I have a lot of respect for them as a football team so, although they’ve lost three straight, I think they’re going to take their frustration out on the Cowboys.”

BALDINGER PICK: Ravens

IRANI PICK: Ravens
