Couple of quick impressions from yours truly...

10 of the 15 listed games currently are ROAD CHALK

Playoff teams (Arizona and Dallas) start at home as dogs.

As @askias pointed out, the defending champs are an underdog here at home to start the year (+1 -110 @ BOL)
 
Cards dogs and early season Kliff a dog

Kingsbury's third season in Arizona, the Cardinals are 15-5-1 in Games 1 through 7 and 8-18 the rest of the season. At Texas Tech, the Red Raiders were 27-15 in Games 1 through 7 and 8-25 thereafter. Overall, that's 42-20-1 in Games 1 through 7 and 16-43 after. And in all of his nine seasons, his teams had a worse record in the second half of the season than in the first.

this was written last december 29, so they went 1-2 after it last season, bringing his 2nd half cards season record to 9-20
 
Give me Atlanta and the points!

On Wednesday, the Falcons' first day of training camp, quarterbacks coach Charles London said Mariota would be the team's starter under center.

DHop will control all of this. Have fun!
 
I know it's your little fetish teed but I'd expect the exact opposite this year. Fade early.

Square AF but how does a SF/Den teaser not get there? Yeah both road teams but they're playing two of the teams in the running for most likely to have first pick next April.

Lance on the road doesn’t make me feel comfortable.
 
Never been accused of being a Baker fan but I think he gonna do well here long as McCaffery stays healthy. Can’t believe I’m saying this but I think panthers kick the shit out of the browns. This game just screams Baker will play about as well he can, it his dna to win this game so he can rubs browns noses in it!

It not all bout Baker, certainly helps that browns will be paying panthers qb more than the guy starting for them in this game! That pretty much tells ya who has the qb edge. There a lot more to like than just Faker gettin revenge tho, panthers got plenty of weapons to work with and the way their pieces look I think it just perfect for baker to do what he does best and get the right guys the ball with chances to make plays. The panthers oline the only place I have a little concern against a tough browns d front. I think they have baker in the gun and getting it out to his weapons so fast it will negate the rush, all else fails just check it to mccaffery and let him do his thing

As much I like panthers weapons where I really love them is on the defensive side! They have invested a ton of draft capital on this side the ball and it show. They were good last year, they kinda fell off later in year but they were young, now they all have a year under their belts and just as importantly Horn will be out there this year absolutely taking away half the field! this kid has everything you want to be the next big time shut down corner, life is way easier for a DC when he has a guy he can put on a island and not worry bout his man getting open! I dunno bout you all but I’ve seen Cooper more than enough times to know he will be absolutely no help to brissett in this game! On the road against a lock down corner Cooper will be a total no show, he such a smooth incredibly polished route runner but he don’t have that dog in him. I’ve watch him abandoned Dak so many times in these kind of games! Week 2 at home vs jets after doing nothing this week he will shine! (I’ll be looking for cooper under rec yards week 1, and over week 2!).

After cooper what does brissett have to throw to? Peoples-Jones? That doesn’t scare me! Yes browns will do some work on the ground but it ain’t gonna be easy for Chubb as panthers will be able to dedicate 8 men to stopping him cause Brissett and his guys on the outside not striking fear in these guys w cooper being taken away! I can’t believe I get panthers at home laying less than a fg! I think they win by a td or more! By far my favorite play of week 1!!
 
Immediate starter. I get why the saints did this, I’m sure he wanted to be highest paid Nickel, and he may deserve it. Saints are deep at CB, though. He’s a player though and no one is better on the roster there

Sad, feel we could’ve gotten a little more in the trade.
 
It’s is funny but I thought he played well. Sorry for the Saints clutter.

Miami WR release was interesting too
 
They screwed up drafting Lance. Other than his athleticism and arm strength what does he do well? Nothing

I think it gonna work out for them. He can’t be any worse a qb than RG3 and shanny made him a freaking star! until he got hurt then him and his daddy deciding he wasn’t gonna use his legs anymore,,he was gonna be a pocket qb like Peyton manning! How that work out for him? Not shanny fault the goofy Mfer could learn to slide!

Jimmy g forced them into this, if they could trust his health I don’t think they make the move. I’ve heard ppl say that it was a indictment on Jimmy g but Im sure it was the fact he always hurt and every time he went out their season went down the drain, they had to do something! Roster too damn good for the season to be in hands of Jimmy staying healthy!!
 
I’m sure Lance will have some growing pains w the occasional turnover but he will also connect on the shot plays Jimmy tended to miss!!! Just couldn’t hit any hr’s unless one the wr’s took a short pass to the house, this year they might have more 3 and outs but they gonna hit huge plays every game!!

Can’t pay everyone (unless you the rams, they got some straight up geniuses working the cap!(.
 
Interesting promo on DK, where you can bet any team on the ML for opening weekend, and if they lead by at least 10 at any time in the game, you win, regardless of the final result. Creates an interesting opportunity of scanning the card to see who might create such a 10 point lead.

A week 1 Favorite. that will be a week 2 favorite, and in week 2 the game will be a Thursday night game.

week = 1 and F and n:day = Thursday and n:F

1-4 SU and 0-5 ATS against Chiefs
 
week = 1 and F and n:D and on:F

A week 1 favorite that will be a week 2 dog and their week one opponent will be favored in week 2 and the week 1 line is greater than -7 (24-51 32% ATS and only 41-37 SU).
Fade :
Dolphins
Panthers
Titans
Chargers
 
week = 1 and D and PRSW>3 and PRSW<7 and n:F ( 39-13, 75%, 24-29 SU)

A week 1 game in which the dog had won between 4 and 6 games last season and will be a week 2 favorite

Play Giants against Tennessee.

I have that one and the Rams/Bills game they have the same deal at 7 pts

Thinking SF has as good a chance as anyone. Definitely leaning Buffalo for the 7 pt lead deal. Pretty sure they don't lose money on any of these fuckin promos though so I'm always skeptical.
 
They put limits and probably significantly on those props but know they'll get it back tenfold.
