Stay tuned for the NFL Week 2 Odds! Week 1 brought some sports betting surprises in the NFL, as it usually does.
The Cincinnati Bengals couldn’t get out of their own way, making too many mistakes to avoid a disappointing home loss at the hands of New England.
The Cleveland Browns may have to prepare to acknowledge that Deshaun Watson is the most expensive disappointment in NFL history after his poor showing against Dallas in a home loss.
The Green Bay Packers may have lost quarterback Jordan Love on the second-to-last play of their loss to Philadelphia down in Brazil.
What games should you look at for Week 2 – and which games should you avoid? Read on to get our thoughts.
NFL Week 2 Odds: Games You Should Bet and Avoid
Avoid: Buffalo Bills (+2.5) at Miami Dolphins
When: Thursday, September 12, 8:15 PM, Prime Video
Buffalo has issues to work out on both sides of the ball – and special teams.
They almost lost their home opener to an Arizona team that is well behind them on the talent spectrum, as their defense couldn’t stop Kyler Murray until the second half, and then their special teams gave up a kickoff return for a late touchdown that made the game way too interesting.
Miami was down by double digits at the half against Jacksonville in Week 1 before roaring back to win with a late field goal.
The Bills were just 3-5 against the spread on the road last year and 3-3 ATS in AFC East matchups. Both of these teams look inconsistent so far, so don’t put your money at risk here.
Bet: San Francisco (-5) at Minnesota Vikings
When: Sunday, September 15, 1:00 PM, CBS
Sam Darnold looked as sharp as he ever has in an NFL uniform on Sunday, leading the Vikings to a blowout win over the New York Giants.
That’s one reason why the line in this game has already dropped a point and a half from the open.
In 2023, the Vikings were just 2-6 against the spread, while the 49ers were 9-3 against the spread on the road.
At this writing, we still haven’t seen San Francisco’s opener against the New York Jets, but even though the Giants have a decent defense, it’s not like the 49ers’ unit, and the 49ers have an NFL-caliber offense.
The Giants should have all the information they need to send sixth-year quarterback Daniel Jones to the bench.
NFL Pick: 49ers to win and cover.
Avoid: Cleveland Browns (+3) at Jacksonville Jaguars
When: Sunday, September 15, 1:00 PM, CBS
Deshaun Watson only completed 53% of his passes on Sunday against the Cowboys and had a pair of interceptions.
He did have a touchdown pass to complete the only impressive scoring drive that the Browns mustered, right after KeVontae Turpin took a Cleveland punt all the way to the house.
Last year, the Browns weren’t a strong road team, going 2-6-1 ATS away from Northeast Ohio.
However, Jacksonville didn’t look that great either in Week 1, building a double-digit lead on the Miami Dolphins on the road before coughing the game up in the second half.
Since we don’t know enough about these teams yet, I would hold onto my money here.
Bet: L.A. Chargers (-6.5) at Carolina Panthers
When: Sunday, September 15, 4:05 PM, FOX
Yes, the Chargers rolled over the Las Vegas Raiders, but a West Coast team heading east on the road is usually cause for some caution.
In this case, though, the Carolina Panthers took a 47-10 whipping from a New Orleans Saints team that has a lot of its own flaws.
The Panthers were just 1-7-1 ATS at home last year, so it would be wise to back the Chargers before this line grows larger than a touchdown.
NFL Pick: Chargers to win and cover.
