NFL Week 2 odds: Moneylines, spreads, over/under and best bets you could make

Following an exciting opening week full of emotions and surprises, we are now expecting NFL’s week 2, which hopefully, will be equally exciting than the one we just experienced.

Week 1 saw eight underdogs take the win, with five of them playing on the road which, according to Adam Schefter (renown ESPN insider), is the most in the opening week of a season in over 35 years.

Despite full crowds being back around the league, eight underdogs won outright today, including five on the road, the most in the opening week of the season in over 35 years, per ESPN research producer @EpKap.

Our picks from week 1

Moneyline pick: Browns (+115)— Good

Browns 24 – Bengals 3

Yeah, the Bengals were the favorite team entering the game. They ended last season 12-4 while the Browns ended last on the division with a 7-10 record. However, the Bengals rarely ever play well against their neighbor rivals, especially when playing away, and Week 1 was proof of that.

The Browns had won 5 of the last 6 games (now 6 of the last 7), and it was pretty clear to me that the Browns, despite being underdogs, were coming out victorious in the Battle of Ohio.

Spread pick: Commanders -7 (-110)— Bad

Commanders 20 – Cardinals 16

I thought the Commanders were going to have a field day against probably the worst team of the league, but the game wasn’t exactly what I expected.

Yes, the Cardinals did put up a “weak” performance, but it was enough to keep the game close for over three quarters. The game ended up being much closer and entertaining that I initially thought, with the Commanders having to wait until the last quarter to finally grab the lead against a Cards team led by Joshua Dobbs, who wasn’t able to throw a single touchdown.

Over/under pick: Dolphins at Chargers O51 (-110)— Good

Chargers 34 – Dolphins 36

With these great offenses and poor defenses, this game could have only resulted one way, and it is this one.

I expected a scoring fest classic, and that’s exactly what these teams put up. Best game of Week 1, by far.

THE BEST 3 BETS FOR WEEK 2

*Analysis made on September 14th*

Moneyline pick: Green Bay Packers (+105)

With the Jordan Love we saw in Week 1 against the Bears; it is impossible not to think that this Packers team is up for some great stuff this season.

Although they’ll be visiting a tough team of Atlanta led by Desmond Ridder and they’ll enter the game as underdogs (according to BetMGM at least), I don’t think the Falcons will prevent them from starting the season 2-0.

Spread pick: Dallas Cowboys -9 (-110)

If you’re looking for offensive power, then Dallas is your team.

They’ll be facing a Jets team that, despite surprising the Bills in Week 1, will be arriving in Dallas weakened and with low spirits following the season-ending injury of their #1 QB, Aaron Rodgers.

Therefore, I can easily see Dallas winning this game by a wide margin.

Over/under pick: Los Angeles Chargers at Tennessee Titans: Over 45 (-110)

In the game we picked as over last week, L.A. surrendered 536 yards of offense while putting up 433 yards themselves, which are absurd numbers.

Their offense is great, their defense not so much, which is why I see these two scoring more than 20 points each.
