Week 1 NFL Picks

Steelers vs Browns: I really do like the direction the Browns are going in, however, even with Le’veon Bell out, I doubt that the Browns can pull out a win today over the steelers. Expect big days from Antonio Brown and James Connor.

Steelers 24 – Browns 17

Pit -3.5

 

Bengals vs Colts: This game is very tricky to predict. The Bengals have the more talented team and its not close. But with Andrew Luck back, and the Colts having the home crowd behind them, it becomes a toss up. I think the bengals win a close one because they are simply more talented.

Bengals 27 – Colts 23

Bengals +1.0

 

Titans vs Dolphins: This game is going to be closer then people think. I don’t love the Dolphins, or even like them for that matter, but I just have a feeling that they come out and win this game behind a big day from Kenyan Drake.

Dolphins 20 – Titans 17

Miami -1.0

 

49ers vs Vikings: With the loss of Jerick McKinnon, I have cooled off on the 49ers. I love the future of this team and they will be competitive, but they aren’t good enough on both sides of the ball to go into Minnesota and steal one.

Vikings 31 – 49ers 21

Vikings -6.0

 

Texans vs Patriots: Expect a high scoring game between two of the best teams in the league which will end the same way it did last year. A patriots win.

Patriots 35 –  Texans 31

Texans +6.0

 

Bucs vs Saints: This game is going to be a joke. It wouldn’t be close even if Winston was playing. Expect a big day from Kamara, as he went off last time they played and that was with Mark Ingram.

Saints 35 – Bucs 13

Saints – 9.5

 

Jaguars vs Giants: This game is going to be a good one. Star power everywhere. The reason I am picking the Jaguars is because Eli won’t be able to move around in the pocket, leading to an abundance of sacks. I think Bortles does just enough to win.

Jaguars 17 – Giants 14

Giants +3

 

Bills vs Ravens: Nathan Peterman is starting.

 

Ravens 38-  Bills 10
