Green Bay is definitely the favourite to repeat as division champs in the NFC North. Last year they scraped into the playoffs but the consensus is that had Aaron Rodgers not been hurt for a stretch that would have been far from the case.

NFL Week 1….finally. After all the injuries and suspensions it is finally time to start enjoying the games and the opening week has some good and intriguing betting matchups and some which are both. If you have been slowly building your bankroll over the summer now is the time to put it and your NFL handicapping homework to good use.
The Bengals took the division last year and in my opinion are the favourite to do so again. This is a team with the potential for a really strong offense but there has to be some concern about the defense because DC Mike Zimmer finally got that head coaching opportunity he deserves.
The Baltimore Ravens were classic in following up their Super Bowl winning campaign with a frustrating season in which they didn’t even qualify for the playoffs. They gave big money to QB Joe Flacco and saw Ray Lewis retire and things just weren’t the same.
There are so many story lines with the Cleveland Browns it is hard to know where to start. Josh Gordon? Johnny Manziel? The fact that this team can never seem to get it right?
How about all of the above?
As much as any franchise in the NFL the Pittsburgh Steelers expect to win. As a result last year do not sit well with the franchise but with no overly dominant team in the division right now there is no reason they can not reverse their fortune and get back on top of the division this season.
The final cuts are in so lets look at the Cleveland Browns schedule game by game to see just what kind of season they are going to have. Check back with CappersPicks all NFL season long. We’ll be pumping out the NFL game previews and offering a ton of FREE betting info and picks.

The Buckeyes were one of the early favourites for a playoff spot before Braxton Miller went down before the season even started.
That reframed their whole season but this is OSU so the expectations are still pretty high. This will be a stern test with Navy being one of the most disciplined teams in the country.

The Buckeyes will certainly have the physical advantage but if they are sloppy with it being the first week and all Navy will take advantage.
They are not in Annapolis but the crowd will be loyal to Navy for sure.
I was surprised that the line is as big as it is without Braxton and with an untested backup. The Ohio State defense is supposed to be a monster this year and they are going to have to dominate in this one to cover that number.
The rushing attack of Navy is not intimidated they hung more than 300 yards on a very good Notre Dame defense last year.
OSU has to get points early to put the pressure on.

This is a fun one for the Naval Academy. They often play big name schools but rarely in pseudo home games and even more rarely with a really strong chance to win – they lost by just 4 points against OSU back in 2009.
Navy is a super disciplined triple option running team and if they can have success they can make defenses feel really uncomfortable. Best of all their style wears at teams and their confidence.
This is not a team to be underestimated.
Though it is no surprise how Navy will attack this year’s attack is keyed by Keenan Reynolds as super savvy triggerman who scored a ton of touchdowns last year. An effective running game is the only way that they are going to scare the Buckeyes and potentially cash a ticket for backers.
Given the losses on the OSU side this number looks a little too inflated.
As someone who generally prefers underdogs this is a nice spot on opening weekend. Plus it always feels better to back a team like Navy against a behemoth like Ohio State.
That running game will be good enough to keep them close.
4* NCAAF Score prediction: Ohio State 30 – Navy 27

Green Bay Packers Preview
The Green Bay Packers look primed to continue their run atop of the NFC North. I am not a big fan of their signature move of the offseason – bringing in DE Julius Peppers – but even if it is a failure this team should have more than enough offense to make the playoffs, then who knows.
They haven’t bridged the gap with the likes of Seattle but they are a contender, maybe second in the conference after the Seahawks who they face the opening week. Cappers Picks provides free NFL football handicapping tips all season long.
The Detroit Lions showed some improvement last season after a terrible 2012 but it wasn’t enough to save the coach. This year they are hoping that Jim Caldwell can get them to the next level with a little help from Matt Stafford and Megatron of course. This team has always been able to move the ball and score but they need to get their defense to pick up some of the slack too.
There are some nice pieces that they need to gel as a unit. Cappers Picks provides free NFL football handicapping tips all season long.
The Minnesota Vikings won 5 games last season and it is going to be hard to improve on that total this season. Overall I think this team is poised to get to a more competitive level in the near future but with their top pick at QB not quite ready for prime time it will be at least another season before improvement shows up in the form of wins and losses.

The Chicago Bears enter the season looking to break the box of mediocrity they have been for the last few seasons. At times, when the offense is clicking they look every bit the equal of Green Bay, but they inevitably struggle down the stretch to collect the wins they should.
Coach Marc Trestman looks like he belongs in the league now he has to prove he is a winner and not just an offensive guru. Cappers Picks provides free NFL football handicapping tips all season long.
