Jan 2023

My picks are not based on the odds. I like the the teams in BF:

Bills vs. Dolphins
Opening point spread: Bills -9
Opening point total: 46
Opening moneyline: Bills -435, Dolphins +350

Bengals vs. Ravens*
Opening point spread: Bengals -5.5
Opening point total: 44
Opening moneyline: Bengals -225, Ravens +190

Jaguars vs. Chargers
Opening point spread: Chargers -2.5
Opening point total: 46.5
Opening moneyline: Chargers -140, Jaguars +120

Giants vs. Vikings
Opening point spread: Vikings -3
Opening point total: TBD
Opening moneyline: Vikings -150, Vikings +130

Cowboys vs. Buccaneers
Opening point spread: Cowboys -3
Opening point total: TBD
Opening moneyline: Cowboys -165, Bucs +140

Seahawks vs. 49ers
Opening point spread: 49ers -9.5
Opening point total: TBD
Opening moneyline: 49ers -460, Seahawks +370

Betting the odds:

If Lamar Jackson starts I take Baltimore to beat the spread. High ankle sprain would likely limit his running but it doesn't make him immobile.

Looks like Tua is out so I'll go with Buffalo to cover. If Tua plays I'll take Miami to beat the spread.

I'll take Seattle to beat the spread but 49ers to win. Shanahan will rest starters with a lead allowing 4th quarter scores by the Seahawks. 9 1/2 is a lot to give.
