The unpredictability of the NFL was on full display as the Cleveland Browns secured a thrilling 27-24 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday Night Football. This win propelled the Browns to a 3-1 record, marking their first time in sole possession of first place in the AFC North with Deshaun Watson at quarterback since his acquisition four years ago. Notably, Watson became just the second Browns quarterback since 1950 to achieve a game-winning drive in three consecutive weeks.

As Week 4 approaches, bold predictions surface:

• Raiders Upset Chiefs: The Kansas City Chiefs (3-0) face off against the Las Vegas Raiders (3-0) in a historic matchup, where both teams enter undefeated for the first time. The Chiefs dominate this rivalry, but the Raiders, led by Kirk Cousins, who shares the league lead in touchdown passes, are poised for an upset. The Raiders' defense, showcasing a stellar turnover margin, will surprise Mahomes and the Chiefs, claiming first place in the AFC West.

• Kyler Murray's Record: The Miami Dolphins' defense, struggling historically, sets the stage for Kyler Murray to break the Minnesota Vikings' single-game completion percentage record. Despite a rocky start, Murray is expected to complete at least 85% of his passes against the Dolphins.

• Jets End INT Streak: The New York Jets, under Aaron Glenn, will finally end their 20-game interception drought against the Chicago Bears. This matchup pits former colleagues against each other, and the Jets' revamped defense is ready to capitalize on an opportunity.

• TreVeyon Henderson's Long TD: TreVeyon Henderson of the New England Patriots is predicted to break free for a 35-plus yard rushing touchdown against the Buffalo Bills, despite the Bills' improved run defense.

• Colts Force Mariota's INTs: The Indianapolis Colts are set to intercept Marcus Mariota of the Washington Commanders for the first time in 2026, marking a significant defensive turnaround after a rough start to the season.
