10-22-17 | Saints -4 v. Packers | Top | 26-17 | Win | 100 | 159 h 29 m | Show |
On top of Rogers going down, the Packers O-Line is in serious question entering this matchup. Regardless if David Bakthiari and Brian Bulaga play, they've had no reps with new QB Brett Hundley this week so they won't be familiar with his pocket presence/movement and it should allow for a field day for the Saints DT's - defensive end Cameron Jordan has registered five sacks already on the year. I expect Hundley and the Packers to attempt to counter this by trying to get rid of the ball very quickly and the Saints D-Coordinator well aware of this and play press coverage everywhere. Besides quick throws expect to see a lot of runs and screens, I don't expect Hundley to open up the offense in his first career start. The one thing he can do is scramble, so the Saints should be actively ready to play contain. On the other side of the ball, things are really coming together for the Saints. They've rattled off three straight wins after an 0-2 start and quarterback Drew Brees sees things falling into place. "I think we've gotten better every week in certain ways," Brees told reporters. "Obviously, we have some momentum. We like the direction that we are going. We understand the things that have happened these last three weeks that've allowed us to win.". One of these things being the running game certainly. Look for Ingram and Kamara to continue their excellent play as of late and to get big chunks of yardage on Sunday against a defense which has struggled against the run allowing 119.8 yards per game (24th in NFL).

10-22-17 | Panthers v. Bears +3 | Top | 3-17 | Win | 110 | 28 h 30 m | Show |
THe Panthers are in a slightly better situation because they come off a Thursday game and Bears come off a tough overtime game at Baltimore. Some key injuries to monitor as Luke Kuechly is still in the concussion protocol and I doubt he plays, and Kelvin Benjamin hasn’t practiced. It really surprises me that the Panthers are one of the biggest public plays this week as I believe the Bears are a tough underrated team to beat at their home turf. The Bears are 3-0 ATS at home. They played a tough schedule and got blown out twice when Mike Glennon and company destroyed themselves with company. With Trubisky and Kyle Long back healthy, they ground and pound and play it save. Bears have a good front seven, a strong running game and a solid young QB. Panthers struggle to run the ball whole season and even if Ryan Kalil is back, I am having a hard time seeing them running efficiently on that Bears front seven. A field goal at home should provide a lot of opportunity for the cover. Chicago Bears +3 | |||||||

I like the Browns again this week. I still don’t know how they lost last week – it was an historical game in terms of losing while completely out gaining the opponent. This line is wrong again in my point of view, as crazy as it sounds. From last year’s great defensive unit, the Texans are without Bouye, Demps, Cushing, Wilfork, Kevin Johnson, Simon, Mercilus and (Watt). They couldn’t stop the pass this season and now they are down another two key players to their front seven. The Browns’ best unit is their offensive line and when Clowney plays against Joe Thomas, I don’t know how this front seven is gonna create consistent pressure or stop the run consistently. I think Kevin Hogan would play with more confidence than Kizer this week but the Browns should absolutely move the ball in this one. Browns must have started giving Hue Jackson the count after last week and this week we should expect more conservative play-calling inside the red zone to get points on the board. I think this game is decided in the fourth quarter and the Texans shouldn’t lay double digits to anyone this week. Cleveland Browns +10 | |||||||
10-15-17 | Patriots -9 v. Jets | Top | 24-17 | Loss | -104 | 26 h 19 m | Show |
Update: Brady was officially removed from the injury report on Friday. The Jets might be one of the worst 3-2 teams in recent history. They played maybe the easiest defensive stretch possible (MIA, JAX, CLE) and benefited from either great spots or a complete red zone collapse from CLE. Browns could have led 20-0 at halftime. The Jets are the first team since 1994 to rush for fewer than 35 yards and to pass for fewer than 180 yards in a game against the Browns. Note that Powell and Forte appear to be out, leaving Elijah McGuire to handle the load. I expect the Patriots to continue to work out their defensive woes in this one and score at a healthy amount of points. New England Patriots -9 | |||||||
10-12-17 | Eagles v. Panthers UNDER 44.5 | 28-23 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 34 m | Show | |
The first prime time game for both of these teams and it's an outdoor game with chance of showers. Both teams come in hot and as you all know with the parity in the NFL today, things don't often repeat themselves week in and week out. Carolina ranks as the #1 defense in the NFC in terms of yards given up at 274 per game and less than 200 in the air. I expect the front 7 of the Panthers to give Wentz a lot of trouble, especially on a short week where defense is always easier to prep for then an entire offense plan. The Eagles got Fletcher Cox back to help on the d-line. Without a real break away running back in Blount, I expect the Eagles to ground and pound and play a conservative strategy tonight against some dangerous CB's on the Panthers side of the ball. I expect a lot of 3 and out's and the clock running. Under 44.5 | |||||||
10-12-17 | Eagles v. Panthers -3 | Top | 28-23 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 51 m | Show |
Short week off blowout win for the Eagles. They have been looking really good, but they also have wins over 0-5 NYG, 1-4 LAC, 2-2 WSH and 2-3 ARI. I am seeing a letdown. Their best offensive lineman Lane Johnson is in the concussion protocol and we can’t expect him to start. That’s a terrible blow to what seems to be the best OL in the league right now. The offensive efficiency vastly decreased with his absence in 2016. The only thing that kills Wentz this year is pressure and the Panthers should provide that. Backup Vaitai will have a hard time against Addison and Johnson. Panthers defense has one of the best LB corps in the league and they defend TE's very well – Zach Ertz is is by far the favorite target of Wentz and leads all receivers far ahead with 32 receptions. Wentz is 33/61 when targeting Jeffery and Smith. If you take away Ertz and provide pressure, I wouldn’t be afraid about that matchup for Carolina. On the flip side, the Eagles defense hasn’t been playing to what our expectations were. They rank 25th in NYPPA (6.8) and the Panthers passing offense ranks 9th at 6.9 NYPPA and is the best they face year to date. Cam Newton finally looked like his former self the last two games and that offense should be a threat to the Eagles. Carolina Panthers -3 | |||||||
10-09-17 | Vikings v. Bears +4 | Top | 20-17 | Win | 100 | 6 h 59 m | Show |
Finally Mitch Trubisky gets the start. Better accuracy, better pocket presence, better legs than Glennon. And Vikes don’t really have tape on Trubisky. This is a great spot for the Bears at home on MNF. Rumors are that players also asked for a QB change – that’s huge. The team will bring everything on MNF. Bears have a good front seven and I don’t expect the Vikes to get anything done on the ground with a banged up Murray and McKinnon. Cook is just such a huge loss. Keenum had a great game against a decimated TB defense, but now comes back to reality without a run game. Bears will get this thing done in a great spot with a strong run game and a better QB who will get some first downs with his legs. Chicago Bears +4 | |||||||
10-08-17 | Packers v. Cowboys -2 | Top | 35-31 | Loss | -125 | 7 h 47 m | Show |
I love the Cowboys here despite Green Bay coming off rest. GB are overvalued in this one after home wins vs 1 - 3 teams. Packers are a mediocre road side, just 15-15 straight up against the spread on the road since 2014 and they struggle against good offenses because their defense still isn’t where it should be in order to be dominant. Cowboys are off a backdoor loss and on revenge after losing to GB in the playoffs. Cowboys are also getting healthier on defense (Irving back from susp, more CB depth) while the Packers are still banged up. They don’t have a running back tomorrow, Davante Adams is banged up, both starting tackles were only limited and so on. I think the Cowboys come out extremely focused in this one and use their offense to control the clock and I expect Zeke to have a big game. Dallas Cowboys -2 | |||||||
10-08-17 | Jaguars v. Steelers -7.5 | 30-9 | Loss | -105 | 3 h 15 m | Show | |
The Jaguars play their third consecutive road game including a London trip, coming off overtime to play against one of the best home teams in the league. The Jaguars can’t stop the run to save their lives which will make Bell look like his 2016 version. Steelers D is riding Top 5 in metrics,because they played against bad passing offenses, but they get another bad passing offense this week. This game is screaming blowout to me. The only thing that’s concerning is Big Ben's inaccuracy or missing wide out receivers (Brown!). Pittsburgh Steelers -7.5 | |||||||
10-08-17 | Bills +3.5 v. Bengals | Top | 16-20 | Loss | -121 | 22 h 49 m | Show |
The Bengals had a very easy game last week and as you saw with the Ravens last week, coming off blowouts doesn't usually bode well (let down spot). The Bills have a positive turnover margin, whereas the Bengals give up the ball. The Bills match up well with the Bengals because they got a superior matchup in the trenches defensively. Bills are playing great on D overall. McDermott gets everything out of the 4-3. Its tough to see the Bengals moving the ball efficiently against the Bills. They played a banged up Packers D scoring only 17 offensively and beat a bad Browns defense missing their best players. The Bills are a different animal. Note that the Bills offense gets Cordy Glenn back and Tyrod Taylor and crew should be able to muster up enough points to find a cover in this one. Buffalo Bills +3.5 | |||||||
10-08-17 | Jets v. Browns +1 | Top | 17-14 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 54 m | Show |
The Jets look good, the Browns look bad – everyone is grabbing the Jets as a “no-brainer”. Before the season started I had this line at Browns -5.5 and I don't think a lot has changed. The Jets won against the Dolphins who are a bad team who were in a terrible travelling spot. Then they got the Jags without rest off their London trip and almost blew that game. It’s interesting how the perception on the Jets has since adjusted. This is a true road game off a long overtime win and the Browns stay at home. This is the Browns Super Bowl because they know if they can win one game this year it’s this one. Myles Garrett will line up this week, Danny Shelton their best lineman comes back and Jamie Collins also likely comes back. Collins often plays the strong side and in blitz packages. That’s three important players on D coming back that will make the Jets OL look bad. The Jets offense is plain bad and they almost gave the game away last Sunday. They are going to make mistakes and the Browns simply want this one more. Cleveland Browns +1 | |||||||
10-08-17 | 49ers v. Colts -120 | Top | 23-26 | Win | 100 | 18 h 51 m | Show |
Great spot to take an undervalued home side. I disagree with SF being favs on the road. The Niners come off a long overtime game, back to back road games, off 3 divisional games, and have an early eastern time start. The Colts offensive line has played decently this year. Brissett gets a lot of clean pockets and this week they get C Ryan Kelly back. Brissett also had great pocket presence against a strong Seahawks pass rush. The problem was that Indy doesn’t have the receivers to beat a strong secondary / tight pass coverage. The Niners don’t have such thing, so the Colts should be able to move the ball in this one against a different defense. San Fran's offense isn't anything special and Hoyer should be forced into 1-2 picks, because they don’t have the receivers to consistently nullify Hooker, Davis and company. Indianapolis on the moneyline | |||||||
10-08-17 | Cardinals v. Eagles -6.5 | Top | 7-34 | Win | 100 | 3 h 18 m | Show |
The Cardinals come off a long divisional overtime game to play an early eastern game against a legit team. The Eagles are a top-10 offense by metrics and haven't faced any bad defenses as of yet which should really help them against a stellar Cards D. Play calling was decent vs LA, many play actions and a good mix of run/pass. Smallwood is out today, so look for Blount and Clement to control the ball. Arizona has a decent D by metrics, but they played SF, IND and DET – their numbers are inflated. I am not sold as a top-10 unit yet. Cards OL is one of the worst in the league and will be overmatched by Philly front seven. Cards will struggle moving the ball and their only hope is to create turnovers. I like Philly in this one. Philadelphia Eagles -6.5 | |||||||
10-08-17 | Panthers +3 v. Lions | Top | 27-24 | Win | 100 | 3 h 10 m | Show |
The Matthew Stafford bailout streak ends today. Vikes had 3 fumbles off which Lions scored 11 of 14 points and Stafford had 4 dropped interceptions during the game. In terms of metrics, the Lions offense is easy bottom 10 material. Lions have a turnover ratio of +9 thus far which would be +36 over a season. They can’t sustain that. This has to be the week when the Lions luck goes outta the window. Panthers off huge win and back to back road games, but Lions off huge divisional win. Panthers likely getting Kalil and Samuel back which would be huge. It seems that Newtons injury isn’t an issue anymore, because they finally used Newtons legs again on QB draws and power runs etc. That threat combined with McCaffrey is the reason I was so high on that offense. Panthers should win this one if they don’t fumble the ball away three times, but I'll take the generous field goal cover. Carolina Panthers +3 | |||||||
10-05-17 | Patriots v. Bucs OVER 54 | 19-14 | Loss | -115 | 4 h 54 m | Show | |
The Patriots can't stop anybody and give up an average of 32 points per game. Due to that they rely on Tom Brady to score points with his arm and that means a long game due to less clock running (incomplete passes), quick drives with very little clock used, and overall not much ball control. On the other side of the ball the Bucs finally have the type of offense which can really light up the scoreboard. Their double tight end set with Brate and Howard is tough to defend and then throw in All-Pro Mike Evans and DeSean Jackson and you've got a lot of mismatches. The total is set high for a reason, but I still don't think it's high enough. Over 54 | |||||||
10-05-17 | Patriots v. Bucs +6 | Top | 19-14 | Win | 100 | 4 h 0 m | Show |
Last game out, the Bucs moved the ball pretty well against a good defense (Giants) without turnover help. Folk missed 7 points (2 field goals, 1 extra point) and the Bucs had a TD reversed and settle only for a field goal from the 1 yard line (also a missed 2pt conversion). So on a different day they score 36 plus points on the Giants defense. Tampa's personnel presents a major mismatch for NE because they can’t cover Evans/Jackson, Brate/Howard and their front seven is too slow and too non disruptive to stop Doug Martin. New England defense ranks 32nd in tight end yards and 31st in receptions. Pats gave up 26+ at home vs offenses with much less talent than Tampa Bay. Pats look like a no-brainer because they are off a loss, but the line is simply too high. There are many chances for a home cover even though their injury report on defense (Kwon Alexander especially) is concerning. Tampa Bay +6 | |||||||
10-02-17 | Redskins v. Chiefs -7 | Top | 20-29 | Win | 100 | 3 h 41 m | Show |
The Kansas City Chiefs are rolling right now and the last place Kirk Cousins would probably like to play on the road in primetime would be in Arrowhead Stadium. The Washington Redskins have a lot of potential against bad defenses (Rams, Raiders), but they are going to struggle against good defenses. Andy Reid has had one extra day to prepare (Redskins coming off MNF) and despite how good the Redskins looked against the Raiders win Week 3, expect a complete turn around tonight in terms of quality of play. Justin Houston and the Chiefs defense will bait Cousins into making mistakes and the Chiefs weapons (Smith, Hunt, Kelce, Hill) will make enough plays to put up points and cover (if the defense doesn't themselves). The last unbeaten team in the league looks to stay that way with another national tv game rout. Kansas City Chiefs -7 | |||||||
10-02-17 | Redskins v. Chiefs UNDER 48.5 | Top | 20-29 | Loss | -115 | 3 h 33 m | Show |
Both defenses are stellar and have the ability to get after the quarterback which I think will be the difference maker in this total staying under the number. Washington has one of the best defensive lines in the NFL and they get a lot of push into the backfield that creates a lot of chaos. This defense allows just 20.0 points per game and will have a lot of success at getting to Alex Smith. Kansas City allows just 19.0 points per game themselves and rarely give up the long ball, not to mention the up front pressure that Houston and company cause. It should be noted that there is an expected 16 mph wind throughout scheduled game time which could cause a miss field goal or two and affect a few deep balls. Under 48.5 | |||||||
10-01-17 | Jaguars v. Jets +3.5 | 20-23 | Win | 100 | 88 h 23 m | Show | |
Don't get confused about the Jags just yet. Yes they surprised the Ravens last week, but everything came together – great situation, great defense, perfect passing plays at the right time (no pressure to pass the ball) against a team that wasn’t ready to play. It was exactly the type of game the Jaguars so desperately want to play – run first offense that wins games on the back of their defense. Perfect setup. But at the end, the Jaguars could have won by more points, because Bortles still left some plays on the table. This week they play in a bad situation. They just travelled to London, beat the Jaguars 44-7, are hyping their QB and the “best secondary in the league”, travel back to Florida and then travel to New York on the weekend to play against a team that matches up decently with them. The Jets’ only strength going into the season was their run defense which was top-3 last year. Stopping the run though is almost completely useless if you cannot defend the pass. When the Jets faced the Raiders, it didn’t make any difference that they were quite successful against Marshawn Lynch, because the Raiders passing offense completely over-matched the Jets pass defense. The Jets were even successful defending the run against the Bills, but Tyrod Taylor is still a decent QB who executed some plays to push his team to 21 points. The Jets played against two run-first offenses who have weaknesses in the passing game (BUF, MIA) and held them to 21 and 6 points. The Miami Offense is exactly the kind of offense the Jaguars have: run-first, power run, mediocre offensive line, bad QB. The Jets are going to make the Jaguars one-dimensional and then we are going to see the typical Blake Bortles when he cannot play with a lead and he starts slinging the ball right into defenders. Josh McCown isn’t going to be successful against the Jaguars passing defense. The only success the Jets offense is going to have is on the ground and it helps that Bilal Powell may start if Forte is injured, because Powell is the more efficient runner. The Jaguars maybe have the best passing defense at this point, but they got terrified on the ground. Even the Texans had a very high success rate, but they weren’t patient enough and started forcing passes in the first half. The Jets are going to pound the ball and use a lot of screens. This is simply a field position game to force Bortles into lots of throws and poor decisions. New York Jets +3.5 | |||||||
10-01-17 | Rams v. Cowboys OVER 47.5 | Top | 35-30 | Win | 100 | 91 h 21 m | Show |
*Total of the Month* Jared Goff is a completely different QB from his former self in 2016 and he really has this Rams offense humming. Sean McVay knows the Cowboys defense quite a bit and he had 10 days to prepare his offense coming off a great Thursday win. I think the Rams offense is able to create nightmare matchups for the Cowboys defense. The Cowboys simply cannot cover that stacked receiving corps when you add Gurley out of the backfield. On the other side of the ball, Zeke will be Zeke and should break out a few deep runs putting them in easy scoring position. The way the Rams defense has been playing tells us that the Cowboys shouldn’t stay below 20 in this one though. In the event the Cowboys get down, Dak has the ability to work out of shotgun and can go up-tempo easily enough as well. I think both teams can score 24+ in this game and therefore I'm riding the Over. Over 47.5 | |||||||
10-01-17 | Lions v. Vikings -1.5 | Top | 14-7 | Loss | -118 | 65 h 8 m | Show |
It's easy to think the Lions is the pick here today, but if you read between the lines you'll see that's not the case. Last week, the Lions achieved something not many teams have achieved before. They didn’t commit a turnover, had a +3 turnover advantage and scored 26 points. Since 1989, teams in that situation are 569-12 straight up. The Lions became the 12th team to lose a game like that. Furthermore, since 2011, teams with a turnover margin of +3 and a return touchdown margin of +1 are 124-4 SU. Lions became the 4th team to do that. That game showed how overrated the Lions are. They scored 9 offensive points against the Cardinals through 3 quarters before David Johnson got hurt and the Cards exploded. They survived New York with 122 passing yards on 21 passes against a team that missed its best cornerback. And... they couldn’t even score 20 offensive points at home against the Falcons. Matt Ryan threw 3 picks and the Falcons still dropped 30 points on the Lions. The Vikings have a little revenge here after going 0-2 against the Lions in dramatic fashion in 2016. The offense is completely revamped and even though Case Keenum had an easy game last week against a decimated defense, the overall quality of the offense is really improved; the interior as a whole is playing at a high level. Dalvin Cook is a complete beast and Diggs/Thielen are probably a top-5 duo in the league. They can attack every coverage, are great route runners and have good hands. I expect the Lions defense to get exposed again this week and Keenum only has to execute and feed Dalvin Cook a lot because the Lions are poor at defending the run and bad at getting tackles and angles on the second level. Cook should have a great game. Add a possible defensive score and this should be an easy cover. Minnesota Vikings -1.5 | |||||||

If this is the team that everyone thinks is going to make big strides this year, they need to win games like this and take a hold on the AFC South. The Titans can't afford any steps backwards after showing their cards last week versus the Seahawks. Expect a huge effort today from their entire team, losing won't be an option like it has been in the past. Texans defense has quite a bit in injury troubles and on tape they struggle to defend the run and the pass. Titans should just run over them with their two-headed monster in Henry & Murray and they also have a favourable QB matchup if the game gets tight. Note: the favorite when these teams go head-to-head is 6-0 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Tennessee Titans -2.5 | |||||||
10-01-17 | Saints -3 v. Dolphins | Top | 20-0 | Win | 100 | 45 h 51 m | Show |
Coming off games against the 0-3 L.A. Chargers and the last place in the Power Rankings N.Y. Jets, the Dolphins defense rank dead-last in passer rating and dead-last in completion percentage. Now they play against an offense that is clicking on all cylinders. Drew Brees has been playing sensational during the first three weeks despite being 1-2. The offense gets Willie Snead back from suspension this week which should help stretch the field. This offense is loaded – Ted Ginn’s speed opens up a lot of seems for Thomas, Fleener and Snead. The only thing that is still holding back the Saints offense a bit is 32-year-old Adrian Peterson. Saints should move on from him and make Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram the focus point. However, I don’t see how the Dolphins prevent the Saints from scoring a ton in this game. I don’t see many punts from the Saints. The Saints flew directly to London from Carolina on Sunday. They have a full week at London to get adjusted to the time change and the new environment. The Dolphins stayed in Miami and flew out Thursday after the practice. In a week in that Miami needs to make dramatic changes, the Saints are in the much better situation when they can get adjusted to the time change. I think this is a big advantage for them.

Packers tackles Bryan Bulaga and David Bakthiari are doubtful, Jason Spriggs and Kyle Murphy are on IR, as well Cobb is questionable. Tonight we are going to see undrafted free agents, practice squad players or inexperienced guards playing tackle vs. Leonard Floyd, Pernell McPhee and Willie Young. Bears defense held Davonta Freeman, Le'Veon Bell and Jaquizz Rodgers to 4.1 YPC or less, so I wouldn't be excited about the Packers' running game tonight. The Bears go into this game full of confidence after last week's win and I expect them to know Green Bay will be keying in on the run, therefore seeing Glennon taking a number of shots downfield. I feel over a touchdown is simply too much value to pass on. Chicago Bears +7.5 | |||||||

The Cowboys didn't like how things played out last game against the Denver Broncos and Zeke even said he didn't give a full effort. Additionally the Broncos have a major home field advantage as you could see yesterday against the Bills. On the flip side the Cardinals come off an overtime win against the Colts and if you watched that game at all last week you know they should be 0-2. As often happens in the NFL, it's the team looking to rebound who often comes through in the end and not the team looking to build on success. This past weekend was a prime example of that as nearly every underdog covered the spread. While yes the Cowboys are the favourite, I don't think the line is big enough giving the circumstance of this game and the fact that they will be all hands on deck go for this tilt. Meanwhile the Cardinals now have a shared backfield and a spotty WR roster (John Brown out, J.J. Nelson comes in with limited practice all week). Look for Elliott to have a monster game behind their huge O-Line and for Carson Palmer to continue to look uncomfortable in the pocket. Dallas Cowboys -2.5 | |||||||
09-24-17 | Raiders -3 v. Redskins | Top | 10-27 | Loss | -115 | 81 h 59 m | Show |
The Raiders are a west coast team that plays in the pacific time zone and the Redskins play in the eastern time zone. When the game starts, the body clock of the Redskins players is at 8.30 PM EST, the body clock of the Raiders is at 5.30 PM EST. As the game moves on, the bodies of the Redskins calm down towards sleeping time, whereas the Raiders are still fresh. That has a high impact on the game. Going back to 1994, pacific time teams playing eastern time teams on the road on SNF or MNF: 21-5 ATS, outscoring the home teams 14.7 – 9.9 in the second half. Going back to 1989, road teams score 10.0 points per average in the second half and get outscored by 0.7 points by the home side. In the body clock games, pacific teams score 4.7 points more and outscore the home teams by 5.5 points more than in standard road games. Not only do the Raiders have a biological advantage, they also have an offense that can outscore the Redskins easily. The Redskins defense doesn’t have the firepower to compete with the Raiders, period. I would be shocked if the Raiders stay below 24 in this one, I am rather looking at 28-35 points. It will depend on whether the Redskins are able to outscore the Raiders at home and I doubt it. Jordan Reed got injured, didn’t practice on Wednesday and word is that he doesn’t look healthy. That’s a huge downgrade for the Redskins offense because Reed is Cousins’ go-to guy. Reed saw 14 targets in two games and caught 6/6 passes against the Rams. Over the last two seasons, the Redskins are 3-5 SU and scored 20 or less points in half those games when Jordan Reed didn’t play. Terrelle Pryor has had dropping issues so far, Josh Doctson is still on a snap count. Raiders CB Sean Smith had an off-season in 2016 off his new contract but he played much better against the Titans and rookie Gareon Conley played well against the Jets. If the Raiders are able to lock down the WR's and Reed doesn’t play, it’s gonna be a long day for Cousins. I think the Raiders will have their tough stretch during the second half of the season against strong defenses, but for now we just gotta ride them against mediocre defenses.

09-24-17 | Chiefs v. Chargers +3.5 | Top | 24-10 | Loss | -115 | 50 h 16 m | Show |
I still don’t know how the Chargers lost last week because they played great on offense and played good on defense. The Chiefs have produced offensive metrics over the first two weeks that aren’t sustainable. They will regress over the next couple of weeks and this time they have to travel to Los Angeles and the Chargers are in allin mode facing a 0-3 and a realistic end to their season. They will bring it this week. The Eagles had a lot of chances to win against KC, but Wentz’s accuracy and Pedersons play-calling held them back. The Chargers will have a lot of success offensively and will use the loss of Eric Berry. Antonio Gates and Hunter Henry should have a really good game. Eagles targeted Ertz 10 times last week and we could see 10-15 targets for Gates and Henry, but with better accuracy from a better QB. After two wins with sensational metrics, the Chiefs should come down to earth here. I don’t like that Jason Verrett is still not practicing, but the Chiefs don’t have the type of route runners that can expose not having Berry on board. Los Angeles Chargers +3.5 | |||||||
09-24-17 | Broncos v. Bills +3 | 16-26 | Win | 110 | 109 h 52 m | Show | |
This is a great situational spot to take the Bills. The Broncos are super high-flying emotionally after that astonishing blowout win at home against the Cowboys. As we found out last week, the Broncos not only have one of the best home field advantages in general, they also are 31-3 at home now during the first two weeks since 1989. They are 136-65 starting in week 3. Now travelling to Buffalo to play on the road with a game against the 2-0 Raiders on deck is a completely different and tough spot. With Trevor Siemian at QB – even though the passing game is improved – the Broncos haven’t been road warriors in 2016. They went 3-4 and one win at New Orleans was off a last-second FG block return touchdown. Every team has its off-games and I expect the Broncos to have an off-game at Buffalo. The perception is that the Broncos are now unbeatable and the Bills are a team that wants to tank. Before the season started most of the people had the Broncos as an 8-8/9-7 team and the Bills around 5-11/6-10. Now because of two games and two trades, the perception changed drastically. With the Bills we don’t really need to care about the passing matchup, because the Bills don’t have the receivers to win one on one matchups against the Broncos so they aren’t going to target them often. The Bills must get their run game going like last year and simply overwhelm and outwear that Denver defense and rely on Tyrod Taylor's feet. When they go run-heavy and mix in some designed runs for Taylor and create field position on defense like I expect them to, they have a very good shot to win this game. Buffalo Bills +3 | |||||||
09-24-17 | Browns v. Colts +2 | 28-31 | Win | 100 | 17 h 44 m | Show | |
The Cleveland Browns are road favorites in a professional football game. Let that sink for a while. The last time the Browns were road favorites was in week 7 of 2014 at Jacksonville (-2.5). I like what the Browns are doing offensively, but with Myles Garrett on a snap count at the most and Jamie Collins sidelined with a concussion, this defense has really nothing to compete. The Browns couldn’t get any pressure on Ben or Flacco during the first two games and I highly doubt that they are going to get consistent pressure on Brissett. There is no one on the Browns defense you have to account for or to work out a special gameplan for. Colts should move the ball and get some scores in this one. And for those who watch the Cardinals/Colts matchup last week, I swear Gore was running like he was 25 years old in his prime. The key matchup in this game belongs to the Colts secondary. Malik Hooker gives this secondary something special as he already presented his great ball-hawking skills last Sunday with his first career interception. He can cover a lot of ground which makes the work of other defensive backs a lot easier. CB Rashaan Melvin played really solid thus far and the Colts probably get stud CB Vontae Davis back this week. Davis has been limited since last Friday and the chances are good that he lines up this week. That’s a tremendous boost for the Colts, especially matchup-wise. The Browns lost their best WR Corey Coleman due to a broken hand. Coleman is an accuracy-eraser who gives Kizer a larger margin for error. As explained before week one, Kizers biggest problem is his accuracy which has a high variance. Sammy Coates is still injured and unlikely to play. That leaves the Browns with Kenny Britt, Kasen Williams, Rashard Higgins and Ricardo Louis against an improving secondary. During the first two games Kizer showed off some great plays but also showed off some glaring mistakes when his receivers are covered. He tends to run into sacks and forces throws instead of throwing it away. Indianapolis Colts +2 | |||||||
09-24-17 | Saints v. Panthers -5 | 34-13 | Loss | -110 | 3 h 35 m | Show | |
I normally like siding with 0-2 teams due to the desperation they play with in Week 3 knowing the season could be over early if they don't get the win, that being said I simply can't do it with New Orleans on the road in Carolina. As great as Drew Brees has been playing over the first two weeks, he can’t carry that team alone. I see a lot of forced throws under pressure this one and for the Panthers elite linebacking core to pick a couple off. It also doesn't help that both of the Saints starting defensive tackles are injured. It’s a tough road game at Carolina and Cam Newton is getting better. He still had some very weird throws but played better than against SF. If he makes the next step, the Panthers should put up a decent amount of points on the Saints college defense and I see their defense playing well against the Saints. Yes Greg Olsen is out, but they have a veteran replacement in Ed Dickinson. Panthers should roll this one home. Carolina Panthers -5 | |||||||
09-24-17 | Texans v. Patriots -13 | Top | 33-36 | Loss | -110 | 90 h 32 m | Show |
Deshaun Watson is not an NFL QB (yet). We saw it in the preseason, we saw it against Jacksonville and we saw it at Cincinnati. He has bad accuracy, a weak arm, throws with low velocity, completely panics and abandons his footwork when under pressure. The Patriots are going to have a good game plan against him because they already watched him in joint practices in August. Rookie QBs are 0-8 at New England in the Belichick era, throwing 5 INT to 16 INT. They are going to contain him in the pocket and have a spy because they can aggressively cover every receiver not named DeAndre Hopkins. They will do the same as they did against PIT in the playoffs. Double-team Hopkins and make Watson beat them on other receivers. Bill O’Brien once again showed that he is a terrible play caller and completely non-creative when it comes to offensive scheming. Hopkins had every snap on the same side of the field and almost always ran the same routes. Belichick is goint to bait Watson to throw to Hopkins and block all the running lanes he can possibly get. I would be completely surprised if the Texans scored a touchdown this week. On the other side, the Texans don’t have enough quality on defense at this point. They lost Kevin Johnson (4-6 weeks), Johnathan Joseph is hurt, Brian Cushing is suspended and they don’t have a quality SS that can match up with Gronkowski (I predict that he plays). This is still a good defense, but they don’t have the tools to match up with the versatility of the Patriots offense. New England -13 | |||||||
09-24-17 | Falcons -3 v. Lions | Top | 30-26 | Win | 100 | 90 h 30 m | Show |
Despite being 2-0, the Lions have played two really bad offenses - both with terrible offensive lines. The Giants now stayed below 20 points in their last eight consecutive games. The Cardinals offense is a complete mess – no WRs, no RBs, bad pass protection. I still think the Lions defense isn’t any good and they will get torched by a good offense. They will face a good offense this week. The Falcons should have no trouble moving the ball at Detroit this week. Against the Cardinals, the Lions were held to 9 offensive points through three quarters. Against the Giants, they scored 17 offensive points and Stafford was held to a career low 122 total passing yards and 5 NYPPA. It was enough to win the game, because Stafford made great drive extending plays on his feet by running for first downs or by throwing on the move outside the pocket and that’s where the Giants defense failed – you gotta keep him in the pocket and let him react to pressure, because that’s when he starts making mistakes. In the second half, Stafford had 3 passing attempts. They know the Giants couldn’t score and they just ran the ball. The Falcons are probably going to score early and often so the Lions offense will be forced to something they don’t really want to: abandon their offensive style and play catch-up with a good offense. Falcons should be able to jump a good lead in this one and run out the clock in the second half by forcing Stafford to step up and make consistent throws out of the pocket and stop throwing simple screens. I think the matchup for the Falcons offense is much better than the one for the Lions. Atlanta Falcons -3 | |||||||
09-24-17 | Giants +6 v. Eagles | Top | 24-27 | Win | 100 | 2 h 31 m | Show |
A division game giving us 6 points to work with is too much to pass up on, despite how the Giants have looked thus far. Now 0-2 on the year, the Giants will go all in at Philadelphia. If they go 0-3, their season is over. News just came in that Janoris Jenkins will play which is a huge boost for this Giants D. He should be tasked with covering Alshon Jeffrey who's coming off a seven-catch, 92 yards performance against the Chiefs. Also just in... all three starting Eagles CB's which were questionable have been ruled out! Those players are: Rodney McLeod, Jaylen Watkins and Corey Graham. I think the Eagles played quite solid at Kansas City, but they have two problems: Doug Pederson and Carson Wentz. Pederson has very weird play-calling. They were very successful on the ground but Pederson somehow went pass-heavy. Wentz can’t throw a deep ball to save his life. He is now 3/13 on deep balls (20+ yards) which includes the lucky Ertz catch at KC and he is 15/31 when targeting Torrey Smith and Alshon Jeffery. The Eagles might win solely with their defense, because Odell won’t be 100% and that Eagles front seven is an easy matchup for the Giants’ offensive line. However, Wentz should struggle against that Giants defense and we have a 6 point cushion to work with. New York Giants +6 | |||||||
09-24-17 | Ravens v. Jaguars +4 | Top | 7-44 | Win | 100 | 43 h 20 m | Show |
This is a great spot for the Jaguars. They come off an embarrassing divisional home loss and now will bring everything to the table to beat the Ravens. The Ravens come into this game with a suspect 2-0 record with wins over the Bengals and Browns - two teams who probably won't make the playoffs. And thus I think the Ravens are overvalued in this spot. The Jaguars once again saw that they can’t give the game into the hands of Blake Bortles and they are going to ground and pound again from the beginning. The Ravens are without their very best run defender Brandon Williams who didn’t make the trip, as well as their best lineman, Marshal Yanda, who made six consecutive pro bowls, for the season. The Ravens also have a huge game against the Steelers. The Jaguars defense is really awesome, don’t let the last game fool you. Until deep in the third quarter, they held the Titans and their great o-line to just field goals and a lot of three & outs until they got worn out and Derrick Henry just overrun them plus short field position. You can be sure that this Jaguars defense will completely shut down the overrated Ravens offense. I won’t bet on Blake Bortles often, but when I do, it’s against a bad offense where he doesn’t have to play catch-up. Jacksonville Jaguars +4 | |||||||
09-21-17 | Rams v. 49ers +3 | Top | 41-39 | Win | 100 | 1 h 7 m | Show |
As much as I like the direction the Los Angeles Rams are going, I'm not sold on 2nd year QB Jared Goff to get the job done on the road in a primetime game and win by 4 points or more. The chemistry between a new receiving core isn't there yet, so in the event they get down early it will be up to Goff to spread the field and I think the 49ers D is capable enough to make stops or even score a few INT's. They held the Seahawks to 12 points at home last week including a single late 4th quarter touchdown. The Panthers also had difficulty scoring on them in Week 1 with all their weapons go. I also don't like the fact that star lineman Aaron Donald is still getting in game shape after holding out the entire offseason and preseason. Lastly the Niners really want to get this win at home to show their California native team who runs the show in-state, but even if they lose by a couple we still cover. Finally, as much as people hate on Brian Hoyer, he is a veteran QB and you'll see a nice connection between him and Pierre Garcon all game. San Franciso 49ers +3 | |||||||
09-18-17 | Lions v. Giants -3 | Top | 24-10 | Loss | -115 | 123 h 19 m | Show |
The Giants were almost shut out on prime time whereas the Lions dropped 35 points on the Cardinals as underdogs. The Lions earned that win, but they were playing a Cardinals team at home that played extremely bad. Clients will recall that was my 'Game of the Year' in fact, but I'm not one to dwell on the past and keep firing away at the same time, rather we learn from it and move on. What is important to take away is that the Lions didn't beat a great team in Week 1. The Cards offensive line didn’t look improved and their receivers once again were a complete no show. On top of that, Carson Palmer had a bad game with some terrible throws. On top of that, they lost their most valuable offensive player in the third quarter when David Johnson went down during a fumble. At that point, the Cards were actually leading the Lions 17-9 – with a Stafford pick-six. Palmer added a pick-six himself later. Kudos to the Lions, but it wasn’t that they controlled that game from start to finish. New York played without their best offensive player and the offensive line got completely manhandled by the Cowboys front seven. With Odell on the field, you have a guy who cannot only beat every CB, he also is a great deep threat. You put your best CB on him but you cannot have Odell in single man coverage on one side of the field. You always have to shade a safety over the top. That puts Brandon Marshall into a much better matchup on the CB2 and opens up space underneath for Shepard, Engram and Vereen. On Monday we will get a completely different matchup, because the Lions line backing corps isn’t as smart as Sean Lee and Jaylen Smith and they are going to have a significantly worse wide receiver matchup than against the Cards. Slay will likely be put on Odell with safety help and Brandon Marshall likely gets Nevin Lawson who is 5’9″. Marshall is 6’5″. This is unfair. Marshall is gonna burn him in man coverage and I expect a very good stat line from Brandon Marshall. Vice versa, Odell should absolutely get the better of Lawson. Overall the Giants are going to have a much much better matchup offensively this week. The Giants still have an elite defense despite what you saw Week 1. They held one of the best offenses to 19 offensive points (2016 avg: 26.7), 1 TD & 4 FGs on 9 drives. Now they get the Lions offense at home. With Matthew Stafford, the Lions are 2-23 SU on the road against teams that finish the season with a winning record. Since 2015, the Lions had 9 road games in open stadiums. They scored 28, 16, 10, 18, 24, 27, 14, 6, 6 points. That’s 16.4 PPG and they went 2-7 in those games. The Lions are going to have a hard time moving the ball on this Giants defense as they had last December when they scored 6 points at New York. They won’t win the battle in the trenches and Stafford's accuracy has never been good enough to hit receivers intermediate or deep in tight coverages. This offense will see a lot of 3 & outs and will have a very hard time in the red zone. I think the line is a complete overreaction at this point and that the Lions is the clear public play.

09-17-17 | Packers v. Falcons UNDER 55.5 | Top | 23-34 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 41 m | Show |
I don’t really see this being a shoutout like others are saying it will be. New Falcons OC Steve Sarkisian showed us his hand last week: less play-action, less pre-snap motion, less deep passes. He has got a much more conservative approach than Kyle Shanahan last year. On top of that, RG Wes Schweitzer turned out as a major weak spot against the Bears 3-4 last week. He is going to get killed by the Packers interior as well. More conservative play-calling and more pressure will automatically turn into more three and outs for the Falcons, especially against a Packers defense that will come out extremely motivated after they got shredded last year with some key players missing. On the other side, RT Bryan Bulaga hasn’t practiced yet this week because of his ankle and illness issues. LT David Bakthiari has been limited. Aaron Rodgers could once again have some offensive line problems which could also lead to some more three and outs. I also believe the Packers will try to run a little bit more because that Falcons defense was absolutely vulnerable last Sunday and with Desmond Trufant back, the Packers receivers will have a harder time getting separation. I expect this tilt to stay under the number. Under 55.5 | |||||||
09-17-17 | 49ers v. Seahawks -13.5 | Top | 9-12 | Loss | -110 | 123 h 41 m | Show |
Cam Newton played bad last Sunday at San Francisco and it was still enough for the Panthers to beat the Niners 23-3. The Niners have some young talent on their defense and a promising head coach, but they are still a bad Football team. Brian Hoyer simply can't be trusted as a starter in this league, especially on the road facing one the toughest defenses in the league. The Niners defense was solid against the run in Week 1, but losing Rueben Foster was huge. The front seven took a step back after his absence and the pass defense is still nowhere to be found. The Seahawks lost 6-17 at Green Bay, but despite losing the game, the Seahawks defense showed promise. The Seahawks went into Lambeau Field and held the Packers offense with the best QB in the NFL to just 17 points; 7 of which were scored on a start from the SEA 6 yard line and another 7 on a blown defensive formation. All that considering that the Seahawks lost cornerback Jeremy Lane during the first quarter from getting kicked out of the game. Aaron Rodgers played 72 times at Lambeau Field. In just 8 games he was held to 20 or less points. That alone should tell you how great that performance was. This week, the Seahawks will get the lowly Niners at home and the crowd will be rocking. The Hawks came into Lambeau with high expectations. They wanted to make a statement and get revenge from that devastating 7-38 loss in 2016. They lost. Now they are going to take all their motivation and frustration to put a legit beatdown on their division rival. This is one of the worst offenses taking on the best defense in the NFL at Century Link stadium off a loss. The defensive line will be all over that Niners offensive line and Brian Hoyer. Cliff Avril hurt his shoulder against the Packers, so we might see more DE rotations and more snaps for Frank Clark. This might be one of the worst matchups for any offense this year. The Seahawks also have a history of dominating bad QB's at home. We cannot get a better spot to grab the Seahawks below two touchdowns. Note: the Seahawks are 10-1 SU / 8-2-1 ATS at home off a loss, outscoring their opponents by 15 ppg. Seahawks -13.5 (comfortable up to -14) | |||||||
09-17-17 | Cowboys v. Broncos +3 | Top | 17-42 | Win | 100 | 6 h 42 m | Show |
On Monday Night Football last week you saw the incredible home field advantage the Broncos have. Amazingly the Broncos are 30-3 SU at home during the first two weeks since 1989. The average score has been 28.1 – 18.7, so they are outscoring opponents by 9.4 PPG at home during the first two weeks of the season. If there are bad spots on the Cowboys schedule, it’s definitely this one at Denver. I think Dak Prescott is going to be a very good QB for the next decade, but in his second season, he is going to have some regression games where he throws 1-2 picks and is forced to make mistakes. This game might be one. The biggest advantage the Cowboys have on paper is their run game against a Denver run defense that was particularly bad last season. Without TJ Ward, I didn’t expect them to improve on that but his replacement young Justin Simmons looks to be the real deal. He was all over the field on Monday, making open-field tackles, making tackles in the box and blitzing Philip Rivers on the play that led to his interception. Overall, the run defense played much better than I expected them to do. If the Broncos can sustain that level even against better running teams, they are going to have an awesome defense once again this year. They got three great corners who can play man against any team in the league. I don’t think we are going to see great third down success from the Cowboys in this one. Last season, the Boys started with five fairly easy road games in terms of opposing defenses, winning all 5. Then they had their issues against the Vikings and Giants, scoring 17 and 7. I think this is another really tough game for the Cowboys offense and I doubt we are going to see more than 20 points from them. I don’t think they are going to attack the Broncos through the air, they should try to ground and pound which keeps the clock ticking. This is another argument for a rather low scoring affair in which would favour the Broncos. I don’t think the Cowboys go to Mile High and just do business. It’s going to be a very tough game against a great defense and a loud crowd that might disrupt a few of Prescott's great audibles at the line of scrimmage. I think Trevor Siemian and that offense tanked some confidence against the Chargers and they are ready for this game. Denver Broncos +3 | |||||||
09-17-17 | Browns +9 v. Ravens | Top | 10-24 | Loss | -125 | 119 h 19 m | Show |
The Browns lost at home to the Steelers in a game they absolutely could have won. The Steelers got 7 points from a blocked punt return TD. I don’t think that Kizer had a good game running into 3-4 sacks by himself and leaving two touchdowns on the table by missing open receivers. He was sacked 7 times and the Browns still had a shot to win that game. Simultaneously, the Ravens shut out a really bad Bengals team on the road. While the 20-0 result reads very well, we have to account for how they won that game - DEFENSE. The Ravens offense looks abysmal. Flacco didn't look like a veteran one bit and he couldn’t really move the ball on a bad defense. The Ravens scored 7 points off a Dalton pick starting at the Cincinnati 2 yard line. Flacco went 9 for 17, throwing for 121 yards. 48 of his 121 yards came from Maclin's untouched touchdown alone where he threw it short and Maclin could literally walk into the end zone. The Ravens lost Danny Woodhead for a few weeks, a good receiving back who just collected 11 yards per catch on 3/3 targets. The Baltimore Ravens offense will have a tough time scoring many points on any defense this year, also on the Browns. Their ceiling is always going to be in the 10-24 offensive points range. Flacco is mistake-prone and is always good for 1-2 interceptions. And that’s where I believe this spread is too high. The Ravens defense is stout, but I doubt that this unit alone will be enough to win this game by 9+ points against a decent offense. At 9 points we have a lot of options, especially late in the game, when we always have the chance of a backdoor cover with these Browns. Hue Jackson already showed that he is going to be aggressive this year by going for it twice on fourth down. The Browns converted both. This line has tremendous value as soon as the Ravens don’t pull away by more than two possessions. Scores throughout the game of 10-3, 14-10, 21-13 will always keep us in the game if the Ravens grab leads. If the Browns score first, we have a 12 or 16 point advantage against a bad offense. I expect this game to be close throughout 60 minutes, a classic wire-to-wire matchup. 9 points against a bad offense with a decent offense and an aggressive coach is great value. Note: Teams playing the week before a game in London are 10-22-2 ATS (31.2%) lifetime. Ravens travel to London next week. Cleveland Browns +9 (good down to +7.5) | |||||||

The opening total of 48 is a result of public perception from week 1 and it has since dropped. The Chiefs put up 42 points on the Pats on prime time and the Eagles dropped 29 points on a weak Redskins defense including a fumble return touchdown, so it was only 22 points offensively. Without the week 1 performances, this total would have been in the 43-45 range. Now everyone thinks this is going to be a scoring fest. Alex Smith is going to face more pressure then he did against the Pats and the Chiefs run game won’t be as efficient as it was at New England because the Eagles have a very good front seven. The Chiefs defense is equally as good or better. Justin Houston and Dee Ford are both studs. Either Houston or Ford are going to line up against backup tackle Halapoulivaati Vaitai who has been a liability at RT. Wentz is going to face pressure from his side very often. From 1999 until 2016 with Andy Reid as the head coach in games with rest of 9 days or more, there have been 23 games aside of week 1. The Under has gone 17-6 with an average scoring total of only 38.5. Only 3 of those 23 games have seen total points of 48 or more. Andy Reids opponents have scored 14.7 points per average in those 23 games. Under 47.5 | |||||||

The Giants will be coming to Jerry World Sunday Night Football to face the Cowboys with or without several stars in the mix. Giants superstar receiver Odell Beckham Jr. suffered a scary knee/ankle injury in preseason and hasn't practised since, however signs are pointing to him playing despite listed as Questionable; as is fellow starter wideout Brandon Marshall with a shoulder injury. Ezekiell Elliot faces league suspension and it's still unknown if he'll play - obviously a huge x-factor. We do know the Cowboys will be without both starting DE's which is huge for the Giants sluggish O-Line. While the Giants run game and o-line still look suspect after some really bad preseason games, I really like their defense this year and I think that be the difference maker for them in Week 1.

The Panthers are expected to make some noise this year and with that in mind losing on opening week to what is believed to be a bottom feeder team this year is not an option. The 49ers are in rebuild mode with a bright future, but I don't expect them to turn it around in Week 1 of the new era. In the mean time they will manage with Hoyer at the helm, veteran receiver Pierre Garcon out wide, and Carlos Hyde at running back; yet they aren't going to blow anyone away. Expect their defense to excel more than anything with additions of Reuben Foster and Soloman Thomas, but overall they will have a lot of work to do. The Panthers have some weapons in newly drafted Christian McCaffrey, wideout Kelvin Benjamin, tight end Greg Olsen, and of course for MVP Cam Newton who's said to have a lot of pep in his step throughout preseason. The defense is solid with Kuechly and Davis at linebacker and Johnson at line. Both corner backs have a full season of work under their belt and should be much improved this season. Playing on the road is never easy, but I'm going to side with the team who has a returning Quarterback, Head Coach, Tight End, and Receivers versus a team who's full of new faces. Especially in Week 1. Carolina Panthers -5.5 | |||||||

Ben Roethlisberger and crew will look to make another run for a championship this season with all weapons go. Antonio Brown, Martavis Bryant and Eli Rogers makeup a mean receiving core and we may even see a little of 2nd round draft pick JuJu Smith-Schuster. With respect to the running game, Le'veon Bell is arguably the best running back in the league. The defense is rounding into shape with new additions Watt and Dupree along side with Shazier. The Steelers officially sit at #5 in the NFL Power Rankings. Meanwhile the Browns are coming off a 1-15 season and still don't have a reliable QB to go with.

With the Chicago in rebuild mode from the top down and Atlanta coming off a brutal SuperBowl loss which they've surely been thinking about all summer, expect this one to get away from the hometown Bears quickly. This is what you call the opposite of a SuperBowl hangover. All of the Falcons frustrations after last years' big game has been bottled up since February and it's about to unload on what is expected to be a bottom feeder team in the 2017/18 NFL season - the Chicago Bears. All of Atlanta's weapons are back and healthy. The two headed monster that is Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman is a lot for any team to handle. Their rapidly improving TE Austin Cooper has a really high ceiling, some say as much as former all-pro Falcon Tony Gonzalez. Julio Jones needs no introduction. And at QB Matty Ice only seeks another Super Bowl run. So the only question left being is 7 points too much to lay on the road in Week 1, I think not. Atlanta Falcons -7 (safe up to -9.5) | |||||||

Last year around this time the Cardinals were thinking Super Bowl and bettors were all high and mighty on them going the distance. They ended up falling flat even missing the playoffs. It was a monumental disappointment for players and coaches - a feeling they don't want to experience again. A new year and a new outlook, the Cardinals won't be coming into this season thinking they are entitled like they did last year. Ricky feels bad for their opponents as I can see the Cardinals playing every game with a chip on their shoulder. In fact Ricky believes it started in Week 16 of last season when they beat Seattle in Seattle 34-31 and then in Week 17 when they demolished the L.A. Rams in Los Angeles 44-6. Now in Week 1 of the 2017/18 NFL season they visit the Lions in Detroit and are getting points. This is not the team you want coming into your house Week 1, nor do you want to be favoured against them which is only fuelling their motivation even more. Look for David Johnson to keep the linebackers inside the box and then for the play-action to really open up the secondary with one or two long bombs to John Brown. On the defensive side of the ball, CB Peterson will lock down Marvin Jones Jr. and Safeties Tyrann Mathieu and Tyvon Branch will provide over the top help on Golden Tate. I can also see Chandler Jones making it hard for Detroit RB's to get to the outside and linebacker Karlos Dansby being a force in the middle forcing Stafford into some long 3rd downs which will be prime INT situations for the Cards. Shop around and get the best line you can, I was able to get Cardinals +2.5 but anything up until -3 I would be comfortable with. Good luck! | |||||||
