Well, it’s that time again to humiliate myself with my weekly NFL forecast.
I absolutely struggled last year with my best bets and I’m looking to rebound this season. However, Thursday’s game got me off on the wrong foot. I took the points with the LA Rams and watched them melt away in the second half vs. Buffalo.
Onto the rest of the games!
(Odds are based on DraftKings lines)
Baltimore at NY Jets (Ravens -6.5, 44 over/under): Lamar Jackson returns after last season ended in injury. Ravens, 27-13
Pittsburgh at Cincinnati (Bengals -6.5, 44): Has the Bengals finally solved the Steelers riddle? Nope. Steelers, 20-17
Indianapolis at Houston (Colts -7, 46): The last time these two teams combined to score more than 46 points in Houston was in 2015. Colts, 27-24
Philadelphia at Detroit (Eagles -5, 48.5): These games tend to be high scoring in Detroit. Lions, 31-30
San Francisco at Chicago (49ers -6.5, 40): This game last year was 16-15 at the end of the third quarter with the Bears winning. Bears, 20-17
Cleveland at Carolina (Panthers -1, 42): The Browns have never won in Charlotte, and it’s Baker’s revenge game. Panthers, 24-14
