Continue reading →: Indianapolis Colts at Tennessee Titans: 2019 Week 2 NFL Pick
Indianapolis Colts (0-1) at Tennessee Titans (1-0) This game is tough to predict. On one hand, this line suggests the Titans are only about even with the Colts, favoring them at home by a field goal, which I don’t think is accurate. A lot of attention is being paid to…

Seattle Seahawks (1-0) at Pittsburgh Steelers (0-1) The Seahawks were one of the highest favored teams week 1, at home against a very banged up Bengals team, but they ended up winning by just 1 point in a game they easily could have lost. They lost the first down rate…

New Orleans Saints (1-0) at Los Angeles Rams (1-0) This is a rematch of last year’s controversial NFC Championship game, which ended with the Rams pulling the upset in New Orleans and advancing in part due to a non called pass interference that prompted the league to change the rules…

Continue reading →: New England Patriots at Miami Dolphins: 2019 Week 2 NFL Pick
New England Patriots (1-0) at Miami Dolphins (0-1) This line favors the visiting New England Patriots by 19.5 points here in Miami, just the third time in the past 30 years that a team has been favored by 17 points or more on the road. It’s understandable why this line…

Buffalo Bills (1-0) at New York Giants (0-1) A lot of the concern around the Giants coming into the season was around their offense, which lost Odell Beckham this off-season, but they showed in their week 1 loss in Dallas that the bigger concern is their defense, which has lost…

Continue reading →: Chicago Bears at Denver Broncos: 2019 Week 2 NFL Pick
Chicago Bears (0-1) at Denver Broncos (0-1) I expected the Bears to decline in win total coming into the season, but the primary reason for that was simply that they’re going to face a much tougher schedule in 2019, after facing one of the easiest last season. The Bears lost…

Continue reading →: Los Angeles Chargers at Detroit Lions: 2019 Week 2 NFL Pick
Los Angeles Chargers (1-0) at Detroit Lions (0-0-1) The Chargers are one of the most shorthanded teams in the league right now. Melvin Gordon’s holdout might not affect them if Austin Ekeler keeps playing like he did week 1, but they were already without their top offensive lineman Russell Okung…

Continue reading →: Philadelphia Eagles at Atlanta Falcons: 2019 Week 2 NFL Pick
Philadelphia Eagles (1-0) at Atlanta Falcons (0-1) I had relatively high expectations for the Falcons going into the season, as their defense looked likely to be improved with Deion Jones, Keanu Neal, and Ricardo Allen back from injury. Their defense struggled in a week 1 loss in Minnesota, allowing a…

Continue reading →: Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins: 2019 Week 2 NFL Pick
Dallas Cowboys (1-0) at Washington Redskins (0-1) The Redskins made some big plays early last week against the Eagles and shockingly jumped out to a 17-0 lead, but they couldn’t do much from there, as the Eagles went up 32-20 before the Redskins led a garbage time touchdown drive at…

Continue reading →: Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers: 2019 Week 2 NFL Pick
Minnesota Vikings (1-0) at Green Bay Packers (1-0) Both of these teams missed the playoffs last season despite high expectations and both of these teams looked improved in week 1 over last season. The odds makers seem to think these two teams are about even, favoring the Packers at home…
