Bettor Up: Week 2 NFL Bets

I'm still trying to figure out if Russell Wilson indeed tapped out of those final seconds vs. the Seahawks and the color of Al Michaels' hair, so pardon me for my late arrival to examine the NFL's Week 2 betting board. 

I know it's one week and some people are making Super Bowl reservations right this minute for Geno Smith after he helped Seattle get a flucky win over Denver, but it's human nature to overreact to in-your-face results after eight months of no real NFL football. Hopefully my 3-0 start to the (2022) NFL betting season entices you to wager more money on the Jets to win the AFC East. 

Bears (+10) @ Packers: The Bears, double-digit home underdogs in Week 1, showed marked improvement on both sides of the ball in their win over San Francisco. On the flip side, Green Bay looked out of sorts, especially on offense, in their loss to the Vikings. I think the NFC North is going to be better than what most people think. I also have a thing for road underdogs on SNF. 

Vikings (+2.5) @ Eagles: We have two MNF games this week and I kind of like plays in both of them. Let's start here where the revamped Eagles narrowly escaped in Detroit despite their offense looking the part. Only problem now is they face a Vikings defense that will pressure Jalen Hurts, if not disrupt their running game. Therefore, it's unlikely the Eagles will have their way with Minnesota's front seven. I also like the Vikings chances of setting the pace to the game behind their offensive line. Bet the road underdogs. 

Titans @ Bills Under 51.5:  The Titans, for all their problems vs. the Giants in Week 1 , always seem to have the kind of roster make-up to give the Bills some problems. While strong at passing the ball and limiting big plays on defense, Buffalo struggles to run the football and stopping the opposition from running it against them. Buffalo also had the luxury of plenty of short drives vs. the Rams in Week 1. So, look for the Titans to take the air out of the football as this game stays under the total number.
