Last year I finished 135-117-4, after picking every game ATS over the past four years, I’m 521-475. That’s 52.3% – I’d like to see that number 1-3% higher, but I must say I’m pretty happy about it. I went 12-5 with my “best bets” last season as well. Onto the Week 1 picks: Football is back!
SAINTS +4.5 at Packers
Falcons -3 at BEARS (Best Bet)
COLTS +8.5 at Texans
BILLS +6 at Chiefs
Titans +3 at JAGUARS
BENGALS +6.5 at Browns
Eagles -4.5 at RAMS
Steelers +2 at RAVENS
Lions +1 at BUCCANEERS
VIKINGS +9 at Chargers
GIANTS -3 at Redskins
PANTHERS +7 at Cardinals
Seahawks +5 at 49ers
COWBOYS +4 at Jets
Patriots -7 at DOLPHINS
Raiders +3 at BRONCOS
Comments: This is almost a certain jinx, but I’ve been of the belief for quite some time now that Week 1 presents the best value ATS all season long, and this year looks no different. The three toss-up games for me this week were Ten/Jax, NYG/Was and Oak/Den, but the rest were fairly easy calls – right or wrong. I especially like this slate when it comes to teaser opportunities.
