Our Week 3 picks for the 2026 NFL season are in!

Every week, Bleeding Green Nation staff members are here to predict the winners of every game on the schedule. We’ll tally the results along the way and see who comes out on top at the end of the season. Feel free to post your own predictions or discuss the writer predictions in the comments.

You, the reader, can also join in on the fun by voting for who you think will win the games (scroll down for polls). I’ll tally those results in a “BGN community” section under our picks table generated by Tallysight.

After Week 2, Jonny Page and Ben Natan are tied for the top spot. I’m trailing closely behind while the BGN community is tied for second-to-last.

When it comes to this week’s Philadelphia Eagles game, the Birds are 4.5-point road favorites against the Chicago Bears. The Eagles are 0-2 against the spread this season, so, who knows if they’ll be able to beat the Bears decisively. But they should be expected to beat Case Keenum, who might be starting at quarterback for Chicago on Monday night. To no surprise, the BGN staff is not betting against the Eagles.
