Do any lines jump out to y’all? I’ve always had a hard time with NfL games and with it being week 1, I don’t really know what teams will look like. Thoughts?

Saints -9.5 over Tampa. Game is in NOLA, Jameis won’t be playing. Feels like it won’t be close.

(Can’t figure this one out, wrong team favored in my eyes) Thats why it stands out.

NFL is a totally different monster than college.

Its harder than it sounds but just picking the winner, not worrying about the spread, will get you the cover at a high clip. I can’t find the numbers right now, its around 65%, but the the spread doesn’t come into effect most of the time. That means whoever wins usually covers the spread. The trick is picking the winner and hitting UD ML’s. I like to focus more on the NFL than college.

Tonight is a crap shoot and don’t really like a side but I sprinkled some on the Falcons ML last week. Then I waited around and got it at under 44.5 after it dropped....oh well...all action tonight.

I like the Falcons tonight with Wentz & Alshon out. Others I like to cover, Titans, Bengals, Steelers, Ravens, 49ers, Rams, Lions, Packers and Seahawks.

Falcons look good to me as well, but it is a popular pick I am reading on messages boards like this and hearing on radio which isn't something I typically like. Also, taking Titans -1.5 and Saints -9.5.

I like teasers when it comes to NFL. I teased the eagles to +8.5 with MSU down to -0.5(my book has now moved MSU to -7 1/2 against KSU)

Absolutely, nothing like a 6-7pt two teamer in the NFL.

Damn they just posted Falcons -3.5 Live after that eagles punt.

Holy crap Sarkisian’s bags need to be packed yesterday. They made it deep into the redzone three times and no points. Its the same problem they had last year.
