2023 NFL Week 3 Best Bets
Broncos at Dolphins
The Dolphins offense is rolling right now, and the Broncos don’t look any different from last season. Sean Payton hasn’t been able to change the culture there and these two teams look like they are going in different directions.
Tua is playing as well as any QB in football and this team is just going to overwhelm the Broncos in that South Florida heat! I love the Dolphins laying a TD in this game.
Dolphins -7 (+104) 2 Units
Patriots at Jets
This is a tough game and I don’t like backing the Jets. I don’t’ have much faith in the Patriots offense to score many points. Mac Jones isn’t much better than Zach Wilson.
The Jets defense and the fact they’re playing at home is the reason I’m backing the Jets this weekend. Bill Belichick is getting exposed without Tom Brady and I expect them to start this season 0-3.
Jets ML (+133) 2 Units
Chargers at Vikings
The Chargers have to win this game. This is the make-or-break game for Brandon Staley. If the Chargers don’t win this game they will fire Staley. The Vikings are 0-2 as well but I don’t sense the same urgency from them.
The Vikings luck in one-score games has come back to haunt them. They’ve been in these games late but haven’t had the same luck they had last season. This is a bad matchup for them facing a desperate Chargers squad.
Chargers ML (+100) 2 Units
Steelers at Raiders
This line made no sense to me when it first came out. I have no idea why the Raiders are favored in this game. The Raiders are not a good team. The Steelers have played well and faced some difficult teams to start their season.
The Steelers are a much more disciplined team and have a better coach. I don’t even need to take the points, the Steelers are winning this game outright!
