Green Bay Packers (1-0) at Atlanta Falcons (1-0) The defending NFC Champion Falcons almost lost their first game of the season in Chicago against a mediocre Bears team, with the Bears having four chances to win it on the goal line at the end of the game. However, that’s to…

Chicago Bears (0-1) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-0) Going into the season, the Bears were on my underrated list. They went 3-13 last season, but the framework of the team was much better than their record suggested, as they finished 13th in first down rate. Their record was largely the…

Minnesota Vikings (1-0) at Pittsburgh Steelers (1-0) This is a tough one. The Steelers had an underwhelming start to the season, winning by just 3 in Cleveland in a game in which they returned a punt for a touchdown. They actually lost the first down rate battle, as the Browns…

San Francisco 49ers (0-1) at Seattle Seahawks (0-1) The Seahawks’ season opened with a tough trip to Lambeau Field, where they lost by score of 17-9 and fell to 0-1 for the first time since 2012. Their offense struggled all game, gaining just 12 first downs to Green Bay’s 26,…

Buffalo Bills (1-0) at Carolina Panthers (1-0) The Panthers entered the season high on my underrated list. I don’t expect them to be as good as they were in their 15-1 season in 2015, when Cam Newton had a career year, they won a lot of close games, and their…

New York Jets (0-1) at Oakland Raiders (1-0) The Jets lost their season opener in Buffalo by the final score of 21-12 last week and now again head on the road to Oakland. Fortunately for them, teams tend to do better in their 2nd of two road games, especially as…

Detroit Lions (1-0) at New York Giants (0-1) Going into the season, I had the Lions as a 6-win team and high on my overrated list. They went 9-7 and made the postseason last year, but won just one game by more than a touchdown, finished 28th in first down…

Continue reading →: Miami Dolphins at Los Angeles Chargers: 2017 Week 2 NFL Pick
Miami Dolphins (0-0) at Los Angeles Chargers (0-1) This game is a first for both teams. For the Dolphins, it is their first game of the season, as their week 1 game was re-scheduled to week 11 because of Hurricane Irma. For the Chargers, it is their first game in…

Continue reading →: New England Patriots at New Orleans Saints: 2017 Week 2 NFL Pick
New England Patriots (0-1) at New Orleans Saints (0-1) One of the big surprises of week 1 was the Patriots losing at home to the Chiefs by 15. The Patriots entered the season as the consensus top team in the league and hadn’t lost a meaningful conference home game with…
