NFL Week 1

Cooch generally never bets this early in the NFL season, but I'll make a few action plays to get my gambling spirits flowing. We'll keep it very light and play lots o' teases, but Lavinius can vouch for my NFL street creds... heheh.

7 Pt. Tease:
Pittsburgh (even) and Buffalo (+1.5)

The NFL is Cooch's strongsuit. He aight.

Here are my picks. Not sure how many of these I'll actually lay money down on, but here's who I like on Week 1 Eve...

Carolina -7 over NO: I know N.O. is the sentimental pick, but Carolina is my darkhorse Super Bowl pick this year. I'm expecting big things out of them. N.O. was the worst defensive team in the NFL last year.

Houston +5.5 over Buf: Seems like too many points for a first time starter to be laying to a team who is improving and has had its core players together for a few years. Should be a close game at the very least.

SD -4.5 over Dallas: Bledsoe on the road against a good team? I'll take the good team...

Baltimore +3 over Indy: Manning and Co. against a top 5 NFL defense? I'll take the defense every time...

As you can see, the NFL is not mine. ;\
