D$'s NFL Week #1 Best Bets - Part 2

Congrats to Jdawg who is now 3 for 3 picking winners on NCAA Thursday night football this season.  We will keep this momentum rolling into the weekend.

Nice to see some REAL NFL action on Thursday night.  Garrett Hartley probably cost gamblers millions with his two shank-apotomos FG efforts which would have sealed the game for those who had the Saints!

In addition to a strong love for the 49ers, D$ has three other best bets for Week #1:

Miami (-3) @ Buffalo.

I realize it's only Week #1, but this is a key game for the Dolphins.  The schedule makers were not kind to the fish with games against Minnesota, Jets, New England, & Green Bay afterwards.  They really need to win or face a real possibility of being 0-5 to start the season.  i.e. game over.

Miami does have trouble playing in Buffalo, but the Bills are possibly the worst team in the league and barring a Henne meltdown, they should take care of business here.  NOTE:  I am starting to like the UNDER 38.5 for this contest.  Dolphins offensive has been shakey in the pre-season and Bills secondary is their only strength so the score shouldn't be too much of a blowout.

Fish 17  Bills 13


Atlanta (-2) @ Pittsburgh

No Big Ben for Pittsburgh - sometimes it just that easy.  Pittsburgh will try to get to 2-2 by the time he is back in week 5, but 1-3 could happen as only Tampa in Week #3 is a weaker opponent for them.  I'm feeling that Atlanta is a bit underrated and should take care of business this week.

Atlanta 24  Steelers 13


Colts (-2) @ Houston

Every year we keep hearing 'this is the year' for Houston.  Houston is 1-13 lifetime against the Colts.  Peyton Manning just wins games, and we like that we don't have to give 7 points this week when taking them.

Colts 31  Texans 28


D$'s Teaser of Week:
It feels like a road show, but my 7 game teaser this week includes my best bets: the 49ers (+4), Dolphins (+4), Falcons (+4.5), and Colts (+5).  To round out the Teaser, give me Green Bay +4, and I like the Lions +14 and Carolina +14 to cover their games.   Good Luck on Sunday!
