Game Week 2

All of our bets from Game Week 2:

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS @ LAS VEGAS RAIDERS

We’ve got Football in Vegas, baby! Two week 1 winners battle it out at the opening of the Allegiant Stadium as the Michael Thomas-less Saints take on the new hometown Raiders! The Raiders took down the Carolina Panthers in week 1 behind Josh Jacobs in what was a tightly contested affair against a defensive unit…

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS @ SEATTLE SEAHAWKS

The first big test of the Brady-less Patriot era sees Cam Newton and the Patriots head to the Pacific North West for a showdown with the 1-0 Seattle Seahawks and I’m not sure I like their chances. The Patriots moved the ball well on the ground against Miami but that looks to be a real…

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS @ LOS ANGELES CHARGERS

The Chiefs started where they left off last season, putting points on the board and winning games and now travel to LA to take on the 1-0 Chargers who beat the Bengals somewhat fortunately in week 1. The Chiefs most impressive player in Week 1 was their rookie Running Back, Clyde Edwards-Helaire who carried the…

WASHINGTON @ ARIZONA CARDINALS

Two teams who surprised many by winning in week 1 meet in the desert tonight looking to improve to 2-0. The Cardinals went to divisional rivals and fallen Super Bowl finalist Niners and left with the W off the back of a stellar performances from 2nd year QB, Kyler Murray who passed for 230 yards…

BALTIMORE RAVENS @ HOUSTON TEXANS

Imagine being the Texans, you finish week 1 with a loss to the Chiefs, get that out of your system, on to week 2 and… it’s the Baltimore Ravens coming to town! What a way to start the season! The Ravens look imperious in week 1, taking apart the Cleveland Browns and Lamar Jackson looking…

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS @ TENNESSEE TITANS

So the Jags went and shocked the NFL world on Sunday beating the much fancied Indianapolis Colts and Gardner Minshew looking like a franchise QB, completing 95% of his pass attempts and 3 passing TD’s and not turning the ball over. On defense this is far from a top tier Jacksonville defense but some guys…

CAROLINA PANTHERS @ TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS

So Tom Brady’s Tampa debut didn’t quite go to plan did it.. not only did the Saints dominate the game but Brady made a few errors, the worst of which was the pick six he threw, making it three consecutive games Brady has thrown one. On the whole the offense looked as if they weren’t…

DETROIT LIONS @ GREEN BAY PACKERS

Yeah, good luck Detroit.  The Lions somehow threw away a game they had no right losing against the Bears on Sunday and if you’re going to let Mitch Trubisky mount a 4th quarter comeback against you and think I’m going to back you to do anything to stop Aaron Rodgers than you’re a crazy person! In…

ATLANTA FALCONS @ DALLAS COWBOYS

Get ready for some offense, Ya’ll! In my opinion this is the must watch game of the 6pm slate. Two high powered offenses go head to head at Jerry World and with both teams at 0-1 there will be a real fear of falling behind the pack for whichever team leaves here 0-2. The Falcons lost…

MINNESOTA VIKINGS @ INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

Week 1 didn’t quite go the way the Colts were expecting huh, heavy favourites against the Jacksonville Jaguars where the much fancied Colts were expected to dominate the game and walk out of Duval with a W but Gardner Minshew obviously didn’t read the game script and pulled off the upset win taking apart a poor…

SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS @ NEW YORK JETS

Two teams coming off week 1 L’s match up here and I’m not so sure this is the forgone conclusion some think it is. The Jets looked horrid on offense for most of their week 1 matchup with the Bills, Sam Darnold couldn’t get the offense going against a stout Bills pass defense and it took a couple injuries on…

DENVER BRONCOS @ PITTSBURGH STEELERS

Two teams who played on Monday night to varying degrees of success face off here in Steeler country and I’m expecting a physical game of football! The Steelers got the best of the Giants on MNF and they look like an offense who can once again put points on the board now Big Ben is healthy and…

BUFFALO BILLS @ MIAMI DOLPHINS

My Buffalo Bills travel to Miami after successfully dealing with fellow divisional rivals the New York Jets in week 1 and will look to go 2-0 on the season and in the division whilst the Dolphins started off with a regular feeling, losing in New England to the Patriots but this is a new Patriot…

NEW YORK GIANTS @ CHICAGO BEARS

So Mitch Trubisky is a legit starting NFL QB again after his comeback heroics against the Lions? Lets maybe hold fire on that for a second, Trubisky always seems to play well against Detroit and I’ll need to see it more than a couple of times before I believe it! I’m still not sure how the Detroit Lions threw…

LOS ANGELES RAMS @ PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

We told you about the Eagles huh! Behind a beat up O-Line and injuries to most of their offensive  weapons the Eagles were upset (we called it though) by Washington, Carson Wentz being sacked 8 times was certainly a huge factor as to why and this week they welcome Aaron Donald to Philly! The Eagles…

CINCINNATI BENGALS @ CLEVELAND BROWNS

Week two of the NFL season starts with the intra-divisional ā€˜Battle of Ohio’ and who’d have guessed it both teams head into this game 0-1 on the season (we did… we guessed it!) The Browns were blown out by the Ravens (won’t be the last time someone gets blown out by the Ravens this year!) and there were some very underwhelming aspects…
