NFL Week 1

Indianapolis Colts (-8) @ Jacksonville Jaguars 1PM
Philadelphia Eagles (-5.5) @ Washington Redskins 1PM

Normally I wouldn’t side with two road teams in one bet, but with no fans at either game (even though Jacksonville is allowing their “fans” to be there), I’ll happily tease these two together. Better yet, even one of the starters go down, their backups are more than capable of getting their team a win.

Bet: Tease IND -2/PHI +0.5

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ New Orleans Saints 4:25PM

The Bucs lost by 7 in the Superdome last year despite Winston throwing 204 yards and there being 70,000 fans in the building. A little math here: Add Tom Brady who hasn’t been an underdog since 2015, subtract 70,000 screaming defenders and the Bucs can cover a 3.5 point spread with Brady at the helm and the number 1 ranked rush defense from a season ago.

Bet: TB +3.5

Dallas Cowboys (-2.5) @ Los Angeles Rams 8:20PM

The Cowboys defense held the Rams to 7 points entering the 4th quarter in their December of 2019 game, less than a year ago. Since, the Cowboys front seven has gotten even better, adding Gerald McCoy and Dontari Poe. Whether you think Akers is an upgrade from Gurley or not, he’s still a rookie playing against one of the most talented front sevens in the league. Not to mention, I’ll take Dak over Goff every day.

Bet: DAL ML/Under 52 +225
