The Packers\u2019 last trip to Seattle didn\u2019t end well. After a game in which the team struggled to move the ball in the noise the Seahawks\u2019 fan created, victory was stolen away from them by the replacement officials.<\/p>\n<p>The Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans meet at the Georgia Dome on Sunday with a total of 52. Feels a little high given the numbers they\u2019ve played to in the past. Oddsmakers were also quick to forget about the Falcons\u2019 struggles a year ago, favoring them by a point and a half.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eagles vs. Jags<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Philadelphia Eagles are installed as 11-point favorites \u2013 the highest spread of the week \u2013 with a total of 51.5 for the game. The Eagles really closed last season strong, while the Jaguars did little to re-tool after another poor season.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3><a title=\"Sports Picks\" href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/handicappers\/\"><strong>CLICK to GRAB OUR BEST Expert Sports &amp; Football Picks for 2014 GAMBLING!<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Texans vs. Redskins<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Houston Texans host the Washington Redskins as 2.5-point favorites. Both teams found themselves in the bottom five of the league last season, just a year removed from playoff appearances.<br \/>\n[soliloquy id=&#8221;82219&#8243;]<br \/>\n<strong>Pats vs. Fins<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The New England Patriots give away 3.5-points to the Miami Dolphins in Florida in their opener. This game could mean big things in the AFC East, as this could be the Dolphins\u2019 best \u2013 and only \u2013 opportunity to hold the division lead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>49ers vs. Cowboys<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The San Francisco 49ers visit the Dallas Cowboys as four-point favorites. The 49ers have opened the season with victories over Aaron Rodgers in consecutive seasons, meaning Tony Romo faces a tall order.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Broncos vs. Colts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Denver Broncos are 6.5-point favorites against the Indianapolis Colts, with a total of 55 installed for the game \u2013 the highest total of the week. The Broncos took care of business in Indianapolis a year ago, and Peyton Manning will surely look to make a statement against his former team once again.<\/p>\n<p>The Detroit Lions host the New York Giants as four-point favorites, and the Arizona Cardinals host the San Diego Chargers as 3.5-point favorites in the Monday night doubleheader.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Upon first glance at these odds, those big 50-plus totals really stand out. Offenses usually take a couple weeks to get their legs under them.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Eagles in particular needed a few weeks to figure things out a year ago, and Gus Bradley deserves a little more respect than that.<\/p>\n<p>The Redskins expect a healthy Robert Griffin III back by Week 1, while the Texans are dealing with issues at quarterback and wide receiver, and there\u2019s no telling what their defense will look like this season, making the Texans an underwhelming favorite.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table width=\"644\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"19%\"><strong>Date\/Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"22%\"><strong>Favorite<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"10%\"><strong>Spread<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"22%\"><strong>Underdog<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"8%\"><strong>Total<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/4 8:35 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Seattle<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-5.5<\/td>\n<td>Green Bay<\/td>\n<td>44.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Atlanta<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-1.5<\/td>\n<td>New Orleans<\/td>\n<td>52<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At St. Louis<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-5<\/td>\n<td>Minnesota<\/td>\n<td>46<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Pittsburgh<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-5<\/td>\n<td>Cleveland<\/td>\n<td>41<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Philadelphia<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-11<\/td>\n<td>Jacksonville<\/td>\n<td>52<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At NY Jets<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-4.5<\/td>\n<td>Oakland<\/td>\n<td>39.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Baltimore<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-2.5<\/td>\n<td>Cincinnati<\/td>\n<td>43.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Chicago<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-6.5<\/td>\n<td>Buffalo<\/td>\n<td>49<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Houston<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-2.5<\/td>\n<td>Washington<\/td>\n<td>46.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Kansas City<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-5.5<\/td>\n<td>Tennessee<\/td>\n<td>44<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 1:00 ET<\/td>\n<td>New England<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-3.5<\/td>\n<td>At Miami<\/td>\n<td>47<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 4:25 ET<\/td>\n<td>Carolina<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-2.5<\/td>\n<td>At Tampa Bay<\/td>\n<td>41<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 4:25 ET<\/td>\n<td>San Francisco<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-3.5<\/td>\n<td>At Dallas<\/td>\n<td>48<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/7 8:30 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Denver<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-7<\/td>\n<td>Indianapolis<\/td>\n<td>55.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Monday Night Football Odds<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=\"644\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/8 7:10 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Detroit<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-4<\/td>\n<td>NY Giants<\/td>\n<td>45.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9\/8 10:25 ET<\/td>\n<td>At Arizona<\/td>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0-3<\/td>\n<td>San Diego<\/td>\n<td>44.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><b>The 2014\/15 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/nfl\/\">NFL futures betting<\/a> season is here in full force!
