That should make for some great football this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out our Week 3 NFL betting guide, featuring staff picks and predictions to help you make the best wagers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NFL betting guide: Week 3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A programming note right off the bat: There are two Monday Night Football games this week. The doubleheader features some big-name quarterbacks, including Josh Allen and Joe Burrow, whose teams are sitting in entirely different places. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s hoping those games are more competitive than what we saw on Thursday Night Football when the Jets dismantled the Patriots as a 6-point favourite. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have a few more spreads in that territory for the rest of the slate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some quick betting notes before we dive into everything you could possibly want to bet on in Week 3:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Highest total: Lions\/Cardinals (51.5)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Biggest spread: Bengals (-7.5) vs. Commanders<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Six teams have odds of +200 or longer to win (Broncos, Giants, Panthers, Rams, Jaguars, Commanders)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Lines and odds are listed as of 4:35 p.m. ET on Sept. 20. For the latest, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/sports-hub\/american_football\">NFL Week 3 markets<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, see how our staff is wagering on this slate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"props-parlays-and-more-week-12-betting-predictions\">Week 3 betting predictions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need a one-stop shop for spread bets, we have you covered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/nfl-week-3-ats-picks-and-predictions-2024\">NFL Week 3 ATS picks<\/a><\/strong>, via Avery Perri, Jordan Horrobin, and Chris Toman, provide a recommendation against the spread for every game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The week started off well with a successful TNF prediction on the Jets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have plenty of other picks, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"insights\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/nfl-week-3-best-bets-2024\">Week 3 best bets<\/a>:<\/strong> The Panthers as one of this week&#8217;s best bets? Yes, you read that right. After a QB switch, Horrobin likes them on the spread. He&#8217;s backing another team ATS and also likes the under on the team total of a 2-0 club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"insights\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/nfl-week-3-underdog-picks-and-predictions-2024\">Underdogs<\/a><\/strong>: Which plus-money &#8216;dog is going to bark this week? How about the Cardinals, who host the Lions and have scored more points than any team but the Saints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/nfl-week-3-parlay-picks-2024\">Parlay picks<\/a><\/strong>: Don&#8217;t waste your time coming up with a parlay. Here&#8217;s a +319 recommendation, via Perri, that features an ATS underdog and moneyline favourite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"insights\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/nfl-week-3-prop-bets-2024\">Prop picks<\/a>:<\/strong> The Rams are down their two star receivers Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp and Perri says that&#8217;s bad news for running back Kyren Williams. If you&#8217;re looking for good news, check out what he&#8217;s expecting from Saints receiver Chris Olave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"insights\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/nfl-week-3-td-picks-2024\">TD picks<\/a>:<\/strong><em> <\/em>Who&#8217;s finding the end zone in Week 3? Horrobin is targeting three players, including DeVonta Smith, who secured a TD in Week 2 and hauled in seven receptions for the second consecutive game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/ravens-vs-cowboys-week-3-sgp-predictions-2024\">Ravens vs. Cowboys same-game parlay picks<\/a><\/strong>: The Cowboys lost by 25 in Week 2 and the Ravens fell to 0-2. It&#8217;s only Week 3 but this is a huge game for both teams. Horrobin isn&#8217;t picking a side (you can find one in our ATS picks) but is recommending a three-leg, +275 SGP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SNF and MNF predictions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/chiefs-vs-falcons-best-bets-nfl-week-3-2024\">Chiefs vs. Falcons SNF best bets<\/a>:<\/strong> Patrick Mahomes has led the defending Super Bowl champs to a 2-0 start.

Our Steven Psihogios has his own theories for Samaje Perine and Carson Steele.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/jaguars-vs-bills-best-bets-nfl-week-3-2024\"><strong>Jaguars vs. Bills MNF best bets<\/strong><\/a>: Allen and the Buffalo Bills look good in the post-Stefon Diggs era. They are 2-0 and coming off a 21-point win. Horrobin likes them to stay undefeated and cover at home, and he also has a play on Allen&#8217;s counterpart Trevor Lawrence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/jaguars-vs-bills-week-3-prop-picks-2024\">Jaguars vs. Bills MNF prop picks<\/a>:<\/strong> Buffalo&#8217;s unpredictable offence makes it difficult to target for player props. Instead, Psihogios is eyeing a trio of Jaguars in this primetime clash between AFC foes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/news\/article\/commanders-vs-bengals-prop-picks-monday-night-football-week-3-2024\">Commanders vs. Bengals MNF prop picks:<\/a><\/strong> The Commanders had the worst pass defence in the NFL last year, and they&#8217;re in Cincinnati to face a desperate, winless Bengals team.
