Week three of the NFL season will feature many former Louisville Football players in action on Sunday. Here is your complete guide to the NFL in week three.

The morning after another win for the Louisville football team just feels oh so good. The Cardinals defeated the Marshall Thundering Herd last night 59-28. You know what makes Sundays even better? Knowing that there are a plethora of former Cardinals ready for action on NFL Sunday.

Just like college football, the NFL season is now in full swing and the good teams are beginning to separate themselves from the bad teams. The good and bad news is that Louisville football has players on both sides of the equation going into Sunday.

Here are the NFL games that you need to keep an eye on throughout the day on Sunday:

1:00pm Arizona Cardinals at Buffalo Bills (FOX)

Preston Brown is becoming one of the best middle linebackers in the entire NFL. He dominated last Thursday in the Bills’ loss to the Jets, but led both teams in total tackles. Expect more of the same production from Brown is this make-or-break game for the Bills.

1:00pm Cleveland Browns at Miami Dolphins (CBS)

After having a break-out season of over 1,000 receiving yards, Barnidge has had a disappointing few weeks for the Browns. Things are only going to get tougher this week as he head down to Florida to play a good Miami defense. Parker, on the other hand, had a great season debut last week with 8 receptions and 106 yards receiving. If he can stay healthy, Parker is in for a great season.

4:25pm New York Jets at Kansas City Chiefs (CBS)

The Jets are pretty much the Louisville Cardinals of the AFC East. Bilal Powell hasn’t been given too much opportunity to produce this season with the addition of all-pro running back Matt Forte. Pryor has seen consistent playing time with the Jets over the past few seasons, but Mauldin still needs to find some ways to get on the field.

4:25pm Pittsburgh Steelers at Philadelphia Eagles (CBS)

Eli Rogers has been the talk of the town to start the season for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He has gone from an un-drafted free agent to being the starting slot receiver for starting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. After having a tough second game of the season, Rogers will hopefully be able to find more success against the Eagles this weekend.
