3 NFL Games You Won't Want to Miss This Week

It may only be week two but you don't want to miss these games. Week one was wild and should expect this week to be even better. Last week showed how much parody there is in the NFL with six games being decided by three points or less.

Here are three games you need to watch during week 2

Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Redskins

We didn't have to wait long this year to see one of the best rivalries in football. Both teams are coming off losses, the Redskins looked like they didn't belong on the field with the Steelers, while the Cowboys ran out time against the Giants. It's a must win for both teams because the loser of this game will sit all alone at the bottom of the NFC East. Dak Prescott looked like a rookie in his first regular season game and his backfield mate Ezekiel Elliot struggled to break free running into a packed box all game long. After only leading the Redskins on one touchdown drive in the first game of the season Kirk Cousin's has to make throws down the field to beat the Cowboys.

Prediction: Redskins 31 Cowboys 20

Cincinnati Bengals vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

For the past three seasons either the Bengals or Steelers have won the AFC North Championship and this year will be no different. After last year's playoff debacle the Bengals are looking for revenge. Ben Roethlisberger doesn't have all of his weapons yet but that isn't a problem when you have Antonio Brown. Nobody can stop Brown but the Bengals containing him is key to victory.

Prediction Bengals 31 Steelers 28

Tampa Buccaneers vs. Arizona Cardinals

Last week Jameis Winston showed everyone why he was selected number one overall in the 2015 NFL Draft. Winston started slow against the Falcons and even threw an interception in the first quarter. But when the quarter ended he put that all behind him finishing the game with 4 touchdowns and 278 passing yards in 31-24 win. This week Winston and the Buccaneers have to be ready as they head into the University of Phoenix Stadium. Tampa Bay wants to show the league that they are ready to take the next step as a contending team and what better way to show them than by beating the Cardinals. Arizona was upset by the Tom Bradyless Patriots and need to rebound. They're a team full of veterans that know they can't afford to start 0-2.

Prediction: Cardinals 35 Buccaneers 17

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
