Taking the BRONCOS. Lost an ugly one with these guys on Monday night. But we are home and angry. Plus, as everyone probably already knows. Our HC was the DC of the Bears. Like I said when we took the Packers of Chicago. Bears defense will be good. But they won't be historically great. We saw how bad the offense looks. Are you telling me Miller and Chubb won't be able to get after Trubisky this afternoon? He's a statue. And the play calling is highly questionable. Give me Denver who has every player strength and weakness marked down on that Bears sideline. 5* Best Bet DENVER BRONCOS

Taking the RAMS. I get it. Saints want revenge for last year. Maybe the refs give them a play to make up for it. I don't think it will matter. We saw the Texans move up and down the field on Monday night. Rams can do the same. Gurley looked ok. Plus, with Brown, now they can really pound away and keep Brees off the field. Can't hide the now 2-9 SU and 1-11 ATS run that New Orleans has put together in Games 1+2 the last couple years. Maybe Brees is in his swan song. Last year was the least amount of passing yards in his 12 years with the Saints. I know he sat a game, but he would have need 400 to get up to next lowest total. Look. New Orleans is solid. But I think everyone already had this game as loss for the Rams. Super Bowl runner ups have their motivation. 8* Sure Shot LA RAMS

Now Baltimore gets Arizona. A rookie QB and rookie HC. I will be the first to say my Lions picks was a brutal one. Up 24-6 in the 3rd and the team your playing having 3 first downs, you should really seal the deal. But hello Matt Patricia. Not that Kliffy is much better. We have the superior staff today. We have Arizona in an early time slot. More importantly, we have film on Kyler. This Baltimore is solid. If Hollywood is the real deal at WR, watch out. The run game is solid. Detroit should have sealed up a, at worse 24-10, 27-17 type of game. I can't see Cards pulling off the same stunt this week.

But I have seen nothing the last 2 games that says Chip Kelly is going to be able to keep up here. This opened at like 18/19. I still think anything under 30 is a gift. 14 pts in for UCLA. Sooners with 700 yards of O in their games. Oklahoma a bye week next. UCLA with PAC 12 home opener up next.

Chubb will also be a beast. On offense. Super Bowl Champ now under in Flacco. I get it. Guy is a statue. People don't like him. Fine. Lindsey and Sanders are two guys with something to prove, mainly, their health. But Freeman and Booker are 2 solid RBs to help out. I think WR Sutton takes a step forward. Flacco will make rookie Fant a star. Their new OC had Kittle in San Fran catching almost 90 balls. How do you even think of getting behind Oakland as any kind of fave.

Going UNDER the total here. In the past, we have seen a few overs when these guys get together. But times have changed. For starters - Dallas defense. I think these guys are one of the Top 10 units in the leagues. Doesn't matter who is behind center. They will stack the box to stop Barkley and unleash a pretty good pass run on whoever is handing the ball off. Dallas offense is lack luster for me. Maybe Zeke comes to play. Cooper still a little banged up. I just see this one being pretty low scoring. Think the Boys get in the 20s, but not expecting much from NYG. 27-14, 23-10.

Now, Luck to Jacoby is a drop off. But the talent still surrounds him. Out of the gate, I look at this game like a rally around the leader type of situation. Everyone giving up on Indy. No hope.

I think Baltimore would be an average team this year. Nothing sexy. I know they win every preseason. Would like to see Lamar take a step forward at QB before really getting behind these guys. No way we see Rosen now that the OL has been weakened. The total tells us what exactly Vegas thinks of both of these teams. From what I read before this trade, they players didn't want Clowney for Tunsil. They can't be happy that he was dealt.

MSU got 5 turnovers and still couldn't cover vs UL Lafayette last week giving up nearly 500 yards to their offense. I think we hang tough.

Taking MARSHALL here. First off. Prime let down spot for Boise. I mean, outscoring Noles 23-0 on the road. Hats off, plenty of props. Now they are home on their Smurf Turf. Well, it isn't as magical as it was years ago. 11-20-1 ATS and 6-14 ATS vs winning teams under this coach. Herd no walk over. Should be primed to contend for their own conference title. This just seems a bit inflated based on that win. And again, freshmen QB leading the way. Boise can easily win this and not cover. I think this is going to be a close game. 4* Money Maker MARSHALL THUNDERING HERD

Taking GREEN BAY to open up the season. So real fast - You know we had a nice season in 2018. In 2017 we led ALL handicappers in NFL. And going back to 2010 and over 1000 picks, we are cashing at a 56% clip. This season, I feel a 60+ % season on deck. I've redone worked some numbers, and man, if I adjusted faster last season we would have added at a minimum, a half dozen more wins. -- For 2019 kick-off though, we are grabbing the dogs. I've said in videos already that I expect the Bears to take a step back. Losing their DC will be felt, especially early. Let's not forget that even though we cashed Chicago when they jumped to that 20-0 lead before losing 24-23. I still don't expect Mitch to outperform Aaron. Rodgers, I feel, has a lot to prove. New HC and now he has to show that his old HC was keeping him down. Getting a nice number, have to play the division dogs with a chip on their shoulder. 5* Best Bet GREEN BAY PACKERS

And 4 of their top defensive guys. We see them get rolled in January Bowl games because they don't have the depth to compete. Not that UL is a New Year's Day bowl team, but the talent is still ACC level and pretty decent. Satterfield comes over from Appy State where he was 28-4 in Sun Belt play. This team absolutely quit on Bobby Petrino last year. Leading Florida State before losing 28-24. Then they get wholloped 66-31 by Georgia Tech. And then the wheels just fall off as they allow 56-77-54-52-56. That is nuts. But, a new regime in charge. A new attitude. A defensive coach with 10 starters back, 6 on offense.

Taking HOUSTON here. If I could get the +850, I would be taking here on the site MONEY LINE. Look. This is a monster line vs a team with a QB that put up 50 TDs last year. New HC who loves to run and gun. Sooners have to replace their own QB. Albeit, they bring in some guy you may have heard of who was 26-2 at Alabama. I get that Oklahoma reloads, but replacing 4 OL that are now in the NFL is a tough bill to fill. Sooners never had much of a defense. So the points, I think, are double what they should be. All we need is a turnover or 2 and we can be in lead with home faves playing catch-up. 4* Money Maker HOUSTON COUGARS

I also think people are expecting him to become Johnny Manziel under Kevin Sumlin when he was at A&M. That was 2013. Rainbows were a little bit of a darling to start the year. Off a 3-9 season, finished with 8 wins. Now, they have Arizona, Oregon State and head to Washington to start this year. That isn't easy. But you have to like having 18 starters back including your QB who went for 36 TDs and nearly 3900 yards in the air (just 10 INTs.) Getting double digits as a home dog is always nice - But the long travel for any team coming here adds more value to the points. Again, off a nice break out season, these guys are thinking they can win both of these games vs the PAC 12.

Taking the NATIONALS. Yeah. I will bite on the low hanging fruit. I always tell you the truth with me. Win or lose. And this MLB season - it's been a loser. The no way looks to easy games have been rolling. The huge favorites continue to roll. And that hurts a dog player like me. Because I can't lay -250 and now -300 and even -400 numbers. It will be a grind the next month on the bases for sure. But we have NFL and CFB which if you look at the past years on the leaderboards, I have been dominating (#1 in NFL 2017 season. Top 5 NFL + CFB last year) -- So Joe Ross. He's dealing. A .50 ERA last 18 innings. Pirates at times look like they have thrown in the towel. Give me Washington battling for a playoff spot. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS

Taking the RAMS. We know how bad Dallas is in pre-season. We faded them last week. In fact, these are two teams we faded in Week 1. But it is a new week. And, this may be painful to hear and type, but this is a Blake Bortles bet. He was uneven to say the least. Bad probably in his game vs Raiders. For me - he is carrying a huge chip on his shoulder. Look. Maybe he is crap and he can't handle the pressure. But something tells me he puts it together vs the Cowboys today. Again, Rams a team that just needs to go through the motions. But having a capable back-up QB is a spot they should be fine tuning. Brandon Allen is a practice squad QB, but with a year under his belt in this system. Always a plus. 4* Money Maker LA RAMS ---- Wish I waited 10 minutes when the lines came out... RAMS now +2.5 ....
