The Broncos open the 2021 campaign with a road trip to Metlife Stadium in New Jersey. The Broncos have not won a September game under Vic Fangio, so there is a pressing need to get off to a good start. The Broncos can definitely win this game, but I just can't trust them right now until they prove me wrong. I'm hoping that they will get this win on the road, but I'm ready to pick them yet.
Prediction: NY GIANTS (+3) over Denver
Final Score- Giants-23 Broncos 20
Now, onto the picks for Week 1.....
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)
ATLANTA (-3) over Philly: I like Atlanta more than most people do this year, and I think they get off a good start with a home win over the Eagles.
Pittsburgh (+7) over BUFFALO: For some reason, I think the Steelers will play well in this game. I think the Bills win, but I think it will be a close game.
Minnesota (-3) over CINCY: I think the Vikings will pounce on the Bengals early in this game and cruise to an easy opening win.
San Francisco (-6) over DETROIT: Two teams that look like they are on different paths this season. I like the 49ers to roll over the Lions.
TENNESSEE (-3) over Arizona: I think the Titans will take care of business at home this week and get off to a good start.
Seattle (-2) over INDY: I like the Seahawks in this spot over the Colts on the road.
WASHINGTON (+2) over LA Chargers: The WFT pulls the upset over the Chargers in Week 1. That might be the one real shocker of the day.
NY Jets (+5) over CAROLINA: The Sam Darnold Bowl in Carolina as Darnold faces his old team. I think the Jets will be feisty in this game keep it close until the end.
Jacksonville (-3) over HOUSTON: I think the Urban Meyer and Trevor Lawrence era gets off to a great start with a resounding win over the hapless Texans.
KANSAS CITY (-6) over Cleveland: This is probably the most premier matchup of the day. The Browns head to KC to take on the Chiefs. I know a lot of people are picking the Browns, but I like the Chiefs to run away with this one.
NEW ENGLAND (-3) over Miami: The Pats unveil rookie QB Mac Jones, and he takes on his old Alabama teammate Tua Tagovailoa. I think Bill Belichick will have the Pats ready to roll and look for them to cruise to a win over the Dolphins.
Green Bay (-3) over NEW ORLEANS: This game got moved to Jacksonville because of the Hurrican Ida. I think Green Bay will take advantage of the netural site and take care of business over the Saints.
LA RAMS (-7) over Chicago: I think the Bears will keep it close on Sunday Night Football for a little while, but the Rams will pull away at the end. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Bears turn to Justin Fields early in this game.
LAS VEGAS (+4) over Baltimore: The Raiders finally get to host fans in their new Vegas stadium on Monday Night Football. I think the Raiders will pull the upset and take down the Ravens.
