Ok guys football season is nearly upon us and I know I am not the only one out there to follow the betting lines, so here's a write up of my week 1 picks ATS.
Locked in: 6 point teaser Detroit @ Tampa, Det +7.5, Over 35
I like the Lions here straight up, but in week 1 I'm gonna play it a bit safe and take the 6 points on both.
Leans: Cinci @ Cleveland, Cleveland -6.5
Cleveland is 1-10 their last 11 home openers but the Bengals will probably be one of the leagues worst and starting a rookie QB. That's enough for me to overlook the Brownies recent woes, especially when laying less than a TD.
Carolina @ Arizona, Arizona -7
Another rookie QB starting on the road. Cam Newton has looked terrible in preseason and I think the Cards cover easily.
Indy @ Houston, Houston -9
Colts starting 90 year old Kerry Collins after 2 weeks of learning the offense plus the probable start of Arian Foster is enough to take the points and Houston at home to cover. This isn't the same Colts team of years past.
Those are my leans so far, what do you guys think? Ill update later in the week with locked in picks if this thread draws any interest.
