This week’s Pick 6 features 3 favorites & 3 dogs.
YTD Record: 0-0
Pick #1
Green Bay Packers +3 @ Chicago
Give me an angry Aaron Rodgers with offensive freedom over a Bears team that is very good defensively but might have too much pressure on QB Mitch Trubisky.
Pick #2
Los Angeles Rams -3 @ Carolina
I know the narrative of west coast teams coming east is lean on the home team but this is Week 1, this isn’t the middle of the season, I like the Rams to come east & take care of business against a weird Panthers team.
Pick #3
New York Jets -3 vs. Buffalo
Jets at home vs. an inferior opponent. I have a lot of faith in a ton of unproven Jets coaches & players so hopefully they get off to a good start against a divisional rival.
Pick #4
Miami +7 vs. Baltimore
Miami will lose at home against Baltimore but I think the Dolphins hang tight with the Ravens & either are covering the majority of the game or Fitzpatrick has a window to find the back door cover.
Pick #5
Arizona Cardinals +3 vs. Detroit
Kingsbury & Murray get off to a great start against a Detroit team that has a ton of question marks to me. Little moneyline sprinkle here for me as well!
Pick #6
New England Patriots -6 vs. Pittsburgh
Patriots at Gillette vs. a franchise that can’t beat them. This pick is easy for me. Belichick & Brady get to prepare for a Steelers team that seems to shoot themselves in the foot when they go up against the Pats.
