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

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born.
