Saints 45 Lions 27<\/strong><\/p>\n I advised NFL bettors that the Lions wouldn\u2019t have enough offense to keep up with the Saints \u2013 or enough defense \u2013 to keep New Orleans out of the end zone and that\u2019s exactly what happened. I also told pro football bettors that Detroit head coach Jim Schwartz made a mistake by naming rookie signal-caller Matthew Stafford as the team\u2019s starter despite the fact that the team had so many holes at other positions.<\/p>\n Now, heading into Week 2<\/strong>, the Saints will have a much tougher way to go against the stingy Philadelphia Eagles. Philly could be in trouble though, with mediocre backup Kevin Cobb likely replacing injured starter Donovan McNabb while the Lions will take another loss to Minnesota in Week 2.<\/p>\n Jets 24 Texans 7<\/strong><\/p>\n I knew the Jets would cover the spread in this contest and that they have a special young quarterback in Mark Sanchez, now everyone else knows. While I expected new head coach Rex Ryan to build New York into a feared defensive unit at some point, I have to admit that I didn\u2019t think it would happen so soon. Maybe it\u2019s me, but I wouldn\u2019t be surprised to see the J-E-T-S cover against the Patriots next week. The Texans will take another loss in Week 2 to the ticked-off Tennessee Titans. Ravens 38 Chiefs 24<\/strong><\/p>\n This game turned out exactly like I expected, although I didn\u2019t think the Chiefs would score nearly as many points as they did. Looks like Kansas City will have an excellent shot at beating Oakland next week while Baltimore will likely be in a knock-down, drag-out affair with San Diego.<\/p>\n Broncos 12 Bengals 7<\/strong><\/p>\n I picked the Broncos to cover the spread and they did, but I\u2019ve gotta admit that Denver didn\u2019t look very good in their \u2018luck\u2019 win. The Bengals also didn\u2019t look very good in this game despite having quarterback Carson Palmer back under center. The Bengals will undoubtedly lose to Green Bay next week while Denver will have a tough home game against Cleveland that they could lose.<\/p>\n Steelers 13 Titans 10<\/strong><\/p>\n The Tennessee Titans are going to spank division rival Houston next weekend while Pittsburgh handles the Bears in Chicago.<\/p>\n Falcons 19 Dolphins 7<\/strong><\/p>\n Jeez, Miami looked pretty bad in letting me down in this one. Atlanta head coach Mike Smith, the former Jaguars defensive coordinator, looks like he\u2019s had a big hand in improving his team\u2019s defense.<\/p>\n Giants 23 Redskins 17<\/strong><\/p>\n A close NFC East contest is what I expected and that\u2019s exactly what happened, even though New York narrowly missed covering the 6.5-point spread for me. The G-Men will be involved in another toughie on the road against Dallas. I like them to win while Washington enjoys a cakewalk win over the Rams.<\/p>\n Cowboys 34 Buccaneers 21<\/strong><\/p>\n I said Tony Romo and Co. would \u2018handle their business\u2019 in this matchup and they did in a contest that was never in doubt. Beating the Giants next week will prove to be a lot tougher while Tampa Bay could go down again in their road matchup against Buffalo.<\/p>\n Packers 21 Bears 15<\/strong><\/p>\n Aaron Rodgers is blossoming into an All-Pro type of quarterback if you ask me while Chicago\u2019s offense looked mostly inept in this contest despite the addition of strong-armed quarterback Jay Cutler. Green Bay cruises over Cincy next week while the Bears take a home loss to Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n Vikings 34 Browns 20<\/strong><\/p>\n Minnesota will be tough to beat this season if Brett Favre avoids the costly three-interception game while I expect the Browns to improve as time goes along. Minnesota handles Detroit easily next week while Cleveland could knock off Denver despite being on the road.<\/p>\n Colts 14 Jaguars 12<\/strong><\/p>\n I told NFL bettors that this game \u2018may be a bit ugly\u2019 but jeez, I didn\u2019t know it would be this ugly. Jacksonville may not have enough offense to beat Arizona at home next week, though their defense looked very strong on Sunday against the Colts. Indianapolis could be in a bit of trouble against an angry Dolphins team next week.<\/p>\n Eagles 38 Panthers 10<\/strong><\/p>\n Despite their overwhelming win over the Panthers, Philly will be in an uphill battle against the high-powered Saints while Carolina takes another loss to the vastly-improved Falcons.<\/p>\n Seahawks 28 Rams 0<\/strong><\/p>\n I wrote \u2018Go ahead and call me crazy\u2019 as I foolishly thought the Rams would cover the spread and I\u2019ve been kicking myself since half-time of this contest. No way does St. Louis beat Washington next week while Seattle engages in a thriller against division rival San Francisco.<\/p>\n Niners 20 Cardinals 16<\/strong><\/p>\n This is another one of the games I am totally furious with myself about as I suspected Frisco would cover the spread here. Both teams have \u2018winnable\u2019 games next Sunday with the Niners hosting Seattle and Arizona on the road to face the offensively-challenged Jaguars.<\/p>\n Our experts look at the NFL Week 1 Game Capsules and give you some perspective on the Week 1 Gambling online Weekly review…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":68,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[154,2362,2662,66494,2358,442,802,2663,834,2363,2361,1143,1168,2659,1323,17256,2660],"class_list":["post-13171","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-nfl","tag-bet-on-nfl","tag-betting-reviews","tag-capsules","tag-fantasy-football","tag-football-odds","tag-football-wagering","tag-nfl-betting","tag-nfl-capsules","tag-nfl-lines","tag-nfl-weekly-review","tag-point-spread-review","tag-sports-betting","tag-sportsbook","tag-summaries","tag-week-1","tag-week-1-recap","tag-weekly-nfl-capsules"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13171","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/68"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13171"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13171\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13175,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13171\/revisions\/13175"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13171"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13171"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13171"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"http:\/\/media.partners.betus.com\/BANNERS\/football\/sportsbook_kickoff_300x600_mybanner2.gif\")
