Week 1 picks against the spread

Hello, NFL fans. The regular season is finally upon us which means that we are back making our best bets with my NFL projection model. As for my betting strategy, we ended the season poorly last year and while diving into the root causes of the struggles, over the last two seasons, my total bets have been struggling. The model has been positive the last two seasons despite these struggles and I hope we can turn it around. We are coming out of the gates firing this year. Seven total bets with two of those bets being half-unit plays, and we even have two games that I think are worth monitoring if there is some line movement later in the week. Good luck to us! Please make sure to shop around at various sportsbooks for the best possible number. Over the course of the season, a half point here or five cents there will add up. Worst line to bet is the final number that I would make a bet at.

I have no idea what is going on here.

Why Brooke is taking the Falcons: What questions don't I have about this divisional clash? Which offensive players step up for the Panthers? Will Brian Burns play amid his contract dispute? How much improvement will we see from Desmond Ridder after a full offseason as the Falcons' starter? Who will get the bulk of the carries in Atlanta's backfield? Will Kyle Pitts be more involved in the offense?

Week 1 picks against the spread

Last season, I went a solid But this is meant as a realistic look at the betting market, and no one can maintain a winning percentage like that. I'll happily take 55 percent every season just wish it was that easy. To be clear, I'm a journalist first and a handicapper second. I don't pretend to be a professional bettor, but I approach sports betting using the lessons I've learned covering the race and sports books in Vegas since for various publications and websites, including GamingToday a weekly Vegas newspaper , Daily Racing Form the horseplayer's bible and my own ViewFromVegas. Each week, we'll list every game along with the current spread, taking a look at the public's perception of the matchup, the wiseguys' view and then my own "take" on the game. Just like the sharps in Vegas, I don't bet every game, but rather try to pick my spots. Due to popular demand, I'll give a "pool play" for those looking for an opinion of some sort.

How new Eagles defensive coordinator Sean Desai counters that game plan could go a long way toward determining the winner. Umm … yes. I would not be surprised if the Texans defense showed up in this game and gave the Ravens problems. By Austin Mock Sep 6, How will McDaniel counter? With Pickett's potential growth and supporting cast, Hanford is taking Pittsburgh to win straight up. DK Line : Atlanta Score Prediction: Seahawks 31, Rams The Rams were depleted last season but still played Seattle tough down the stretch. I already hate myself for typing the words, but the Broncos will win big here. Even if you think the Raiders lose, the Broncos shouldn't get more than a field goal with their uninspiring offense. However, the addition of Quentin Johnston, a stronger and healthier offensive line and Moore's play-calling will have the Chargers ready to come out on top. Score Prediction: Vikings 24, Buccaneers The pick: Chiefs

Our expert handicappers have decades of industry experience where they have honed in on their craft to provide the best insight, analysis, and value picks here at Pickswise. But Dan Campbell's Lions don't quit—they'll make the first regular-season game of an exciting one. And I am curious to see what Flores cooks up with an undermanned defense. He should rack up a ton of yards in Atlanta's run-heavy offense that led the league in rush attempts last season. He has the luxury of taking over an ascending offense with MVP candidate Jalen Hurts under center. These are two talented teams with a lot on the line. Davenport picked the visiting team to cover a shrinking spread. Though the Falcons have an established identity, and the Panthers will look to create their own on both sides of the ball, Gagnon took Carolina against the spread and to win outright. All things considered, the summer went well for them. Another exciting way to still get in on the NFL action is with total wagers. I think Sean Payton is a great coach.
