We're just about midway through the 2021 NFL season and it's time for the true title contenders to continue separating themselves from the rest of the pack. A classic game (and rematch of Super Bowl I) headlines the afternoon slate, as the Aaron Rodgers-less Packers take on the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. Then, Von Miller will make his debut for the Rams' vaunted defense against the Titans in their first game without Derrick Henry.
While many of this week's games seem straightforward, the crew is split on Raiders-Giants, as well as Browns-Bengals.
Here's who is picking games straight-up for the MMQB this year:
Albert Breer, Senior NFL Reporter
Mitch Goldich, Editor/Writer
Gary Gramling, Senior Editor
Conor Orr, Staff Writer
