Minnesota Vikings (1-0) at Philadelphia Eagles (1-0) This line, favoring the Eagles at home by two points, suggests the odds makers view these two teams as about even, but I have the Eagles about three points better in my roster rankings, so we’re getting good line value with the Eagles…

Chicago Bears (1-0) at Green Bay Packers (0-1) The Packers lost by double digits in Minnesota last week, but I’m not worried, for a few reasons. For one, the Vikings are an underrated team who could easily make the post-season this year, with a talented roster, a healthier defense, and…

Houston Texans (0-0-1) at Denver Broncos (0-1) Coming into the season, I had the Texans as one of the worst teams in the league. They looked improved from a year ago, but not significantly improved and the Texans were even worse than their 4-13 record suggested a year ago. They…

Washington Commanders (1-0) at Detroit Lions (0-1) In my season preview, I thought the Lions could take a step forward this season and would be competitive in most of their games, but I based that on the assumption that they would have better health on the offensive line, which had…

Los Angeles Chargers (1-0) at Kansas City Chiefs (1-0) This line favors the Chiefs at home by 4.5 points, suggesting they’re the noticeably better of these two teams. In my season previews, I had the Chargers slightly ahead of the Chiefs and winning the AFC West, but I don’t disagree…

New Orleans Saints (0-0) at Atlanta Falcons (0-0) The Saints are a team that didn’t make the post-season last year that has a good chance to take a step forward and make the post-season this year. However, if they do that, the primary reason is likely going to be that…
