There were more thrills and spills in week 2 as the NFL season continues to excite and surprise in equal measure. If week 1 is indeed a liar, week 2 is where we should find out more about who means business this season and who is shaping up for a season of struggle. There were stunning comebacks, with the Giants, in particular, storming back to get a big victory on the road in Arizona. The 49ers cemented their credentials as one of the early Super Bowl candidates with a hard fought win over the Rams, while Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs got back on track in Jacksonville.
It’s breathless, intense and for some, agonizing. The action continues this week as some franchises look for their first win while others look to carry on rolling. Let’s take a look at our picks and predictions for the games of the 2023 NFL season.
San Francisco 49ers ???? New York Giants
Thursday Night Football comes from San Francisco as the red hot 49ers host the New York Giants. The 49ers come into this contest 2-0, however, they didn’t have everything their own way against the feisty LA Rams last time out. Many expected a blowout, but some complacency perhaps crept in as they allowed the Rams to come back into the contest time and time again before eventually securing a 30-23 victory. Still, they say it’s the sign of a good team to win without playing well and that is exactly what San Fran did. The Giants, on the other, hand, will be breathing a mighty sigh of relief. After an opening night humbling by the Cowboys, they were looking down the barrel in Arizona after going behind big early. However, from 20-0 down they found some resolve and came storm back to take it, 30-28. They will need all of that and more this week.
