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

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
