2022 NFL Week 1 picks against the spread Baker Mayfields Panthers knock off Browns Cowboys upset Tom Brady

If Thursday night's opener is any indication how Week 1 will go, home dogs are in a heap of trouble. Buffalo destroyed the in front of the whole world, flexing some road chalk muscles to kick off the 2022 NFL season. I'm more inclined to expect a little more chaos than Thursday suggested, particularly when there's so much unknown with a lot of different teams hitting the road as favorites.Having said that, I'm picking a Super Bowl matchup between a pair of Week 1 road favorites. My pick this year is over , the first ever bird matchup* we've seen in a Super Bowl (People are too low on Baltimore this year, getting a motivated and a much healthier roster. John Harbaugh will have this team fully back into the hunt for the No. 1 seed.As for the Eagles, people are bizarrely against the idea can take a leap forward. He's only 24 years old -- it just feels like he's closer to 30 Mike Modano Jersey because of how long he's been in the general spotlight. Philly is deep on the offensive and defensive lines and upgraded big time at receiver with the trade. The look like justifiable favorites after the opening game, but it's a long season ahead.Sunday, 1 p.m. ETTV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ () revenge game! Did not see this coming when we started prepping for the 2022 season. There's a chance he's an upgrade over , at the very least for this initial Week 1 matchup against Flacco's old team. Before 2021, Baltimore had a dominant Week 1 run. Even with the overtime lo s to the last year, the Ravens have a +119 point differential in opening weeks since 2018. A lack of a Lamar Jackson contract only helps the Ravens in my opinion. They basically dared him to pull a Flacco and bet on himself. Add in mi sing at left tackle and this could get ugly for the Jets if Baltimore is in typical Week 1 form.The pick:Ravens 35, Jets 13Props, Best Bets: N/ASunday,1 p.m. ETTV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ () revenge game! I DID see this coming with Carolina desperate to upgrade at the quarterback position. Given injury, it's an extremely good thing they did. It might not be great for the Browns -- with suspended, it's Antoine Roussel Women Jersey now or bust. I'm leaning bust, even though the Browns don't have a bad roster. The Panthers simply have a motivated Baker, a healthy and an upgraded offensive line and should be good enough out of the gate -- a la last year -- to take down a Watson-le s Browns team. Alexander Radulov Jersey The Pick: Panthers 24, Browns 17Bets: Panthers -1.5Sunday, 1 p.m. ETTV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ () Outrageous stat of the weekend: the Colts haven't won a Week 1 game since 2013. That's multiple coaches, multiple quarterbacks, multiple GMs, everything. Just obscene to go almost 10 years without winning a Week 1 game. Houston feels extremely frisky this year, with a bunch of veterans, and the Colts defense should take a step back under Gus Bradley with a questionable secondary. The Texans are probably live to win this game outright.The Pick: Texans 24, Colts 21Bets: Houston +7Sunday, 1 p.m. ETTV: Fox|Stream:fuboTV () The last football game played was the infamous Week 18 lo s to the Jaguars in 2021, preventing the Colts from making the playoffs and launching Jim Irsay's campaign to run Wentz out of Indy. The NFL schedule makers are a ruthle s bunch -- Wentz's first game of 2022 and his new team (with their terrible new name) hosting Jacksonville. The bonus? Wentz's old coach, Doug Pederson, is at the helm of the Jags now. That upgrade alone makes me love Jacksonville in this spot. The Pick: Jaguars 21, AFKAWFT 17Bets: Jaguars +2.5Sunday, 1 p.m. ETTV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ () Can't wait for the Dolphins to win by 45 points followed by a full NHL Dallas Stars Kids Jersey -blown attack in my mentions. I actually can wait for that, but what I can't wait to see is what the heck the Patriots offense looks like under the direction of Matt Patricia and Joe Judge. Most likely it'll be Bill Belichick with a heavy hand on the offense, but the whole setup is morbidly intriguing regardle s of who's calling plays. The Pick: Patriots 17, Dolphins 14Bets:Pa sSunday, 8:20 p.m. ETTV:NBC|Stream:fuboTV () It's doubtful there's been a team more "sold" by the general public over the last few weeks than the Cowboys. It's primarily because of the injury -- Dallas is expected to be without its superstar left tackle until at least December. 's struggled in the past without Smith on the field and it's not unreasonable to wonder if it causes long-term i sues with the offense. Short-term it's a problem too, but the Cowboys got enough time to prep for this Week 1 game that I think they can surprise a Bucs team dealing with its own litany of injuries on the offensive line. Dan Quinn will likely use and in multiple spots on the field, including the interior, to take advantage of the Bucs injuries and po sible pre sure on . It's probably best to wait for kickoff to grab the Cowboys, hoping it gets to +3.The Pick: Cowboys 31, Buccaneers 27Bets: Cowboys +2.5Monday, 8:15 p.m. ETTV:ESPNThis is being billed as the Revenge Game but I think it's a bigger motivational matchup for Pete Carroll, who just sent Ru s packing in a trade to the Broncos and who would LOVE to let people know Seattle can Mike Gartner Men Jersey still win without Ru s in town. It won't be easy, but none of the Seahawks games this year will be "easy" -- I'd bet anything Carroll wants to muddle every game this season, turning them into low-scoring slogs. Think 2010 and 2011 Seahawks games when you picture what we'll get from Seattle this year. The Unders should be great value early on this season for the Seahawks and the offensive machine being led by .The Pick: Seahawks 21, Broncos 17Bets: Under 44.5Other Scores 24, 21Eagles 35, 17 24, 21 35, 14 31, 28 31, 24 27, Raiders 24 17, 14
