Monica flexed hardest, calling the <strong>Packers over the Lions<\/strong> when everyone else hesitated. Tasha spiced things up with her bold Chargers upset pick, and Amber owned Monday night with the Vikings win.

The crowd went wild, the cameras loved it, and the game only got hotter from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the chaos, <strong>Jalen Hurts was untouchable<\/strong>, slicing through Dallas\u2019 defense for two rushing touchdowns and extending his NFL record for QBs with multiple rushing TDs. Philly\u2019s secondary? Still a little shaky \u2014 Adoree\u2019 Jackson gave up 103 yards and a couple of missed tackles \u2014 but Hurts made it look effortless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dallas had flashes of fire, too. Miles Sanders\u2019 49-yard dash nearly flipped the script, and the young O-line held strong. But a fumble in the red zone and key drops from CeeDee Lamb kept the Cowboys from taking control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>FIS prediction locked in: Eagles soar, Cowboys stumble, and the drama never stops.

Detroit? They looked flustered and outmatched, finally scratching on the board with a late 13-yard TD by rookie Isaac TeSlaa, while injuries, including Terrion Arnold leaving, kept the spark from igniting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>FIS Take: Monica got it right \u2014 Parsons made a statement, and the Packers owned the field.

Matthew Stafford did his thing too, hitting 245 passing yards and cruising past 60,000 career yards like it was nothing. Houston\u2019s defense bent but didn\u2019t break, and the Rams\u2019 offense kept things tantalizingly just enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Texans? They tried to flirt with the end zone, but C.J. Stroud couldn\u2019t find his rhythm. Pressure came fast, the offensive line wavered, and Nico Collins was left begging for the spotlight with just three catches. The lone touchdown came too late to tempt a comeback, leaving Houston licking their wounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>FIS Take: Amber got the vibes right \u2014 Rams were controlled, confident, and oh-so-lethal.

Derrick Henry bulldozed for a late score, and DeAndre Hopkins wowed with a one-handed 29-yard touchdown on his Ravens debut. The drama spilled into the stands\u2014after a Bills fan shoved Lamar following Hopkins\u2019 hit, he shoved back, and a water bottle sailed at Henry in the end zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DOUzj4akRW2\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
