Week 3 features one of the least exciting slates of the season when it comes down to marquee matchups as you can tell from some of the lopsided spreads. However, there will be some interesting storylines to keep an eye out for, especially after last week.

Thursday Night Football

The action begins on Thursday, September 21, with the New York Giants at San Francisco. The Giants had a brutal start to the season against the Cowboys and now this will be the second game, in a row, they have to play out on the West Coast after pulling a historic comeback against the Cardinals in Week 2.

Sunday Slate

On Sunday, we walk down memory lane as the Indianapolis Colts visit the Baltimore Ravens. For the newer generations, the Colts played in Baltimore once upon a time. Then, on March 29, 1984, the franchise relocated to Indianapolis. There is a great 30 for 30 you can watch. Needless to say, it gets loud when the Colts visit their old city.

Another intriguing matchup will take place during the 1 PM slate when Russell Wilson and the Broncos visit the Miami Dolphins and with Denver in an 0-2 hole, this could very well be an 0-3 situation for new head coach, Sean Payton.

MNF

Lastly, the second of the three MNF doubleheaders features the Eagles visiting the Buccaneers (7:15 PM ET) and the Bengals hosting the Rams (8:15 PM ET)
