2023 NFL Week 2 Best Bets
Packers at Falcons
This is one of my favorite picks of the weekend. I absolutely love getting the underdog Falcons at home in this one. The public and everyone is wildly overreacting to the Packers stomping the Bears.
The Falcons play smart football and don’t turn the ball over. The way they run the ball reminds me a lot of those Titans team led by Tannehill that Arthur Smith coordinated. Take the points if you want, but I’m betting Falcons moneyline outright.
Falcons ML (+105) 5 Units
Chiefs at Jags
The trap has been set by the sportsbooks with this one. The sportsbooks are not your friends. When I saw this, I instantly wanted to bet Chiefs and over. I’m fading myself here.
This game is in Jacksonville, I can easily see the heat getting to the Chiefs, and I love the hook. This game feels like a low-scoring battle, where the Chiefs knock in a FG late to win.
Jags +3.5 and Under 50.5 points (+290) 5 Units
Jets at Cowboys
The Cowboys looked absolutely dominant in their thrashing of the Giants in the opener, 40-0. The Jets somehow pulled out a miraculous comeback OT victory on MNF against the Bills.
After they lost Aaron Rodgers, and the air went out of the stadium, everyone left the Jets for dead. Leave it to Josh Allen and his ability to turn the ball over constantly to hand the Jets a win.
This matchup is at the worst time for the Jets, the Cowboys defense is overwhelming offensive lines, and I don’t imagine the Jets group faring too well against Micah Parsons and company.
Cowboys ML and Over 36.5 points (+100) 5 Units
Ravens at Bengals
One of my favorite underdog picks of the weekend. Joe Burrow didn’t look very good in that loss to the Browns and the Ravens handled the Texans with ease.
This seems like a bad matchup for the Bengals at the worst possible time. The Ravens defensive coordinator Mike MacDonald has had tremendous success against Burrow and Co.
I love the Ravens in this one and am backing them to win outright.
Ravens ML (+145) 2 Units
