Week 3 of the NFL season has arrived and we’re already starting to find out which teams are set to be Super Bowl contenders and which teams can begin preparing for the 2024 NFL Draft next April. I started the new gameweek right by going 2-0 with my picks on Thursday Night Football, as the 49ers comfortably beat the Giants. Now I’m looking for another big winner in the form of an NFL mega parlay at huge +1080 odds with Fliff social sportsbook, which is available in most states throughout America! You can find out our NFL predictions for every game in Week 3, but for now let’s break down my parlay for this Sunday’s NFL slate.
Jets ML (+130)
Saints ML (+102)

New York Jets ML over New England Patriots (+130)
It’s always a rough time to be a Jets fan, but this season in particular has to sting. For the first time in over a decade, this franchise looked like it could actually compete for a playoff spot and beyond, and it took only 4 snaps into the new season for those hopes to evaporate as Aaron Rodgers went down with an Achilles injury. However, as bleak as things look, I think they’re being somewhat overhyped and that this Jets team is still competent. Remember, they started 7-3 last season and were firmly in playoff contention, and all of this was while Zach Wilson was under center. I’d argue they’re still a better team now than they were then, especially with Breece Hall back.
For that reason, I believe there’s a lot of value here getting the Jets as a home underdog against the Patriots. The Pats are 0-2 and their offense has struggled mightily so far, and there’s no reason to expect Mac Jones’ struggles to continue against a Jets defense that is one of the best in the league. Wilson has enough weapons around him to get some success with this New York offense, and I expect Hall and Dalvin Cook to do more than their fair share out of the backfield too. I like the Jets to finally get a win against their rivals and move to 2-1 on the season.

New Orleans Saints ML over Green Bay Packers (+102)
We’ve got another slight underdog next in our NFL mega parlay, as we’re taking the Saints to remain perfect at the expense of the Packers. This play is all about putting faith in the New Orleans defense, which has looked tremendous so far in limiting both the Titans and Panthers to less than 17 points and keeping each of their quarterbacks to under 200 passing yards. Jordan Love does admittedly look better than Ryan Tannehill and Bryce Young, but I don’t think he’s as good as oddsmakers believe.
Love has dazzled so far with 6 passing touchdowns and no interceptions in his 2 games so far this season, but this will be the first time he’s tested by a defense as mighty as the Saints’ and I believe this is where we can see some mistakes begin to creep in. New Orleans already has 7 sacks this season and with that relentless pass-rush I can see Love having a tough time. With the Saints already boasting 7 sacks this season, the pass-rush is likely to be relentless and I’m not convinced Love will be up to the task. I’m still not sold on this Packers team and don’t think they deserve to be favorites. Therefore, I’m rolling with New Orleans to move to 3-0.

Detroit Lions -6.5 over Atlanta Falcons (+154)
According to BetMGM, the Falcons on the spread has the most handle of all of Sunday’s NFL Week 3 games. However, I’m fading the public and then some here and taking Detroit to beat Atlanta by at least a touchdown. The Falcons are off to a solid 2-0 start with victories over the Panthers and Packers, but as mentioned above, I’m not sold on the Packers yet and the Panthers look to be among the league’s bottom-feeders this season.
The Lions meanwhile went into Arrowhead and beat the Chiefs in the opening game of the campaign before falling to the Seahawks in a thriller. That defeat arguably brought Detroit back down to Earth, but this is still a team that has plenty of talent on offense led by the tandem of David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs out of the backfield. This game takes place at Ford Field and with the Lions selling out the stadium you have to expect the raucous crowd to have an impact in favor of Detroit. I like the Lions to move to 2-1 and taking the alternate spread on them to win by a touchdown. They wrap up our NFL mega parlay at +1080 odds and I’m going to be sprinkling my Fliff coins on these 3 plays.
