Bet on It

By Dalton Del Don

Last year I went 126-125-5 ATS. Over the last three seasons since I started doing this, I’m 386-358. Onto Week 1 action:

VIKINGS +5.5 at Saints

Broncos +2.5 at JAGUARS

Raiders +6 at TITANS

BENGALS +4.5 at Patriots

Browns +3 at BUCCANEERS

Colts -2 at TEXANS

LIONS +6.5 at Bears

Falcons -2 at STEELERS

Dolphins -3 at BILLS

PANTHERS +6.5 at Giants

Packers -3 at EAGLES

Cardinals -4.5 at RAMS (Best Bet)

49ers -2.5 at Seahawks

Cowboys -3.5 at REDSKINS

Ravens +2.5 at JETS

Chargers -4.5 at CHIEFS

Comments: After the Vikings clearly outplayed them in the NFC Championship game, I’m surprised so much money is going on the Saints…The Falcons being favored by two points in Pittsburgh essentially says Vegas views Ben Roethlisberger as a 5-7 point player, which is massive…The Packers could easily win the Super Bowl this season, but giving three points in Philadelphia is a lot to ask. The line opened at Eagles -1…Seems like a lot of good value with home dogs in Week 1, including the Rams. Still, I don’t feel great making a bad team with a QB making his first ever start as a “best bet.”
