Read on to see Neil and Jeff's Week 10 predictions...
New Orleans Saints @ Cincinnati Bengals, NFL Sunday LIVE
Sky Sports Action (407), 5pm, Sunday
NEIL PICKS: SAINTS
There is no A.J. Green for the Bengals - he's out with a toe injury - so I've got to go with the Saints in this one. They are much better built to win on the road than they were a few years back, so I can't see them losing this one in Cincinnati.
JEFF PICKS: SAINTS
The Bengals have always been a Yo-Yo team, up and down. If the Saints defense can just hang in there - get a few stops and force the odd turnover, they can outscore everybody in football. This could be a Super Bowl team in New Orleans.
Seattle Seahawks @ Los Angeles Rams, NFL Sunday LIVE
Sky Sports Action (407), 9.25pm, Sunday
NEIL PICKS: RAMS
This is an interesting one. Seattle played the Rams very tough at home a few weeks ago. I think the Rams win this one in LA but, again, I think it's going to be very tough and really competitive.
JEFF PICKS: RAMS
I agree that the Rams are going to win, but I actually think they're going to win by seven points or more. In that previous game in Seattle, there was bad weather, and they're not built for that. Also, they're coming into this one off the back of a tough loss - their first - and this is one of those game where they'll look to re-establish themselves.
Dallas Cowboys @ Philadelphia Eagles, NFL Sunday LIVE
Sky Sports Action (407), 1.10am, Monday
NEIL PICKS: EAGLES
Sunday night football, an NFC East rivalry match-up. I'm going with the Eagles at home.
JEFF PICKS: EAGLES
Yes, I like Philadelphia for the win too.
New York Giants @ San Francisco 49ers, Monday Night Football
Sky Sports Action (407), 1am, Tuesday
NEIL PICKS: 49ERS
Meanwhile, Monday night football suddenly holds a little bit more interest for 49ers fans as this Nick Mullens kid looked alright at quarterback in their drubbing of the Raiders last week. Undrafted, in just his second year, on the practice squad last year. I think the 49ers are going to keep things going with a second win straight at home.
JEFF PICKS: GIANTS
I'm going with the Giants. Now there's tape on Mullens - you're talking about a guy who had never started, never even thrown a pass in the NFL and so the Raiders didn't know what they were getting. I think once defensive coordinators have the opportunity to get game film on a guy, most guys take a step back in their second game.
Carolina Panthers 21-52 Pittsburgh Steelers
NEIL PICKS: PANTHERS
I'm going for Carolina to win on the road. Cam Newton is playing well, looking very comfortable under offensive coordinator Norv Turner and he has a lot of good weapons around him now, in Christian McCaffrey, Curtis Samuel and D.J. Moore. Panthers for the win.
JEFF PICKS: STEELERS
I'm going to take Pittsburgh. I think they're really starting to play well right now. Carolina too. But, it's in Pittsburgh and what I've started to see out of the Steelers is that the defense has really changed.
