Pick of the week
I’m going with the Eagles to win and cover the spread against the Falcons. The Falcons are coming off an impressive win over the Packers in Week 1, but I don’t think they’ll be able to keep up with Carson Wentz and the Eagles’ high-powered offense. The total for this game is set at 49 points, so there should be plenty of scoring to go around.

Article 1: Patriots open as 5.5-point favorites over Jaguars in AFC Championship rematch
The New England Patriots are starting their title defense with a bang. According to OddsShark, the Pats are opening as 5.5-point favorites over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the AFC Championship rematch.
The Jaguars shocked the NFL world by beating the Steelers in Week 5, but I don’t see them having much of a chance against the Patriots. Tom Brady and Bill Belichick have had plenty of time to prepare for this game, and they’ll be looking to make amends for last year’s heartbreaking loss.
The over/under for this game is set at 47.5 points, so there should be plenty of fireworks on Sunday. I’m predicting a 31-17 win for the Patriots.
Article 2: Cowboys open as 3-point favorites over Giants in NFC East rivalry game
The Dallas Cowboys will be looking to start their season off with a bang when they take on the New York Giants on Sunday. According to OddsShark, the Cowboys are opening as 3-point favorites in this NFC East rivalry game.
The Giants had a disappointing season last year, and they’re facing an uphill battle against the Cowboys this week. Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott should have no trouble putting up points against New York’s defense, and I’m predicting a 34-21 win for Dallas.
The over/under for this game is set at 44 points, so there should be plenty of action on Sunday night. Be sure to check out OddsShark for the latest odds on this and other NFL games. Good luck!

The Philadelphia Eagles are looking to make a run for the Super Bowl this year, and they’ll be starting their journey with a matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. According to OddsShark, the Eagles are opening as 5.5-point favorites in this NFC Divisional Round game.
The Falcons had a great season last year, but I don’t think they’ll be able to keep up with the Eagles’ high-powered offense. Carson Wentz is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, and he should be able to lead his team to victory. The total for this game is set at 49 points, so there should be plenty of scoring to go around.
I’m predicting a 27-20 win for the Eagles in this one. Be sure to check out OddsShark for the latest odds on this and other NFL games. Good luck!

The Green Bay Packers will be looking to avenge their Week 17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings when they take on them in the NFC Divisional Round. According to OddsShark, the Packers are opening as 7-point favorites in this matchup.
The Vikings had a great season last year, but I don’t think they’ll be able to keep up with the Packers’ high-powered offense. Aaron Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, and he should be able to lead his team to victory. The total for this game is set at 44 points, so there should be plenty of action on Sunday night.
I’m predicting a 27-17 win for the Packers in this one. Be sure to check out OddsShark for the latest odds on this and other NFL games. Good luck!
