Phil Steele

Weather: Clear, Mid 60's, Winds 5-7 mph - It's another Championship banner reveal as the Patriots host the Chiefs. While NE enters the '17 campaign as the prohibitive favorite to claim the Super Bowl Title yet again, the Chiefs have strung together a handful of successful seasons lately including an AFC West Title last year. While my computer is calling for a low-scoring contest and the Patriots escaping with a 5 point win, I'll up both the scoreboard and gap in the final score and give NE the 10 point win.

Buffalo 325 - 278

The Jets are the worst team in the NFL as they dumped a lot of salaries this year, but the Bills have done some of that, themselves this offseason (Sammy Watkins, Ronald Darby). The Bills No. 1 rush offense is fueled by quarterback Tyrod Taylor’s mobility who, is expected to return here following a preseason concussion. While the points are pretty lofty in favor of Buffalo, I also find it difficult to lean in the Jets’ favor as well. My computer has Buffalo winning by 8 with a 47 yard edge. I put both teams in the go against category this year.

Atlanta is a top five team in the NFL while the Bears are near the bottom so talent clearly says Atlanta. Chicago was a banged up team last year putting 21 players on IR during the year, but still only lost one of their first seven home games by over a touchdown going 4-1-1 ATS as a home dog. Atlanta has Green Bay on deck and Chicago is my No. 1 most improved team in the NFL this year. It is tough to go versus a powerful Atlanta team but I like the Bears here. My computer calls for Atlanta to win this 25-19 and that is right at the total.

Phil's Forecast:

Houston 19 - 14

Houston by 5 Best Bet: *(Under 39.5) Houston 18 Jacksonville 13

Blake Bortles is 0-6 straight up (2-4 ATS) versus Houston’s top ranked defense. Last year Jacksonville was outgained here 387-150 but actually covered losing 21-20 (+3.5). Houston’s defense allows 50 yards per game less at home than they do on the road and their No. 1 defense gets back JJ Watt. Jacksonville had the No. 6 defense in the NFL last year and is stronger. Add in two weak offenses and I like under 39.5. My computer calls for Houston to win this 19-14 so it agrees with me.

This is one of the tougher games for me to call as my power ratings have Philadelphia the stronger team by four points, but when you factor in the home field they are right at the line at minus 1. Washington has actually dominated this series winning the last five games in this series both straight up and ATS. I will call for the Eagles to grab a close road win here and my computer has them by 1 as well.

Arizona has been a top ten offense and defense the last two years, but after going 13-3 in 2015, they missed the playoffs last year. Detroit was in the playoffs last year, but did it with smoke and mirrors keyed by fourth quarter comebacks (minus 16 yards per game). The window is closing on the Cardinals’ chances to get to the Super Bowl and the stronger team grabs this crucial week one win. My computer only has the Cards winning this by 1 but I like them by more.Detroit 21 points

The Raiders were the early favorite here, but Tennessee is now minus 2. Derek Carr and Marcus Mariota are both off injuries but look healthy coming into week one. Oakland has a slight edge on offense and Tennessee has a slight edge on defense. I have a lean with the Titans, but it’s tough laying points to a Raiders team that was 6-2 straight up and ATS on the road last year. I like the Titans to win the game and really like them when they're the underdog. Now they not only have to win but win by a FG or more.

Las Vegas Line All summer I have gone back and forth trying to pick the second place team in the AFC North. I lean with the Bengals, but my power ratings have these two separated by .04 and with Cincinnati at home they would be favored by 3.04. The line is minus 3. Joe Flacco did not play in the preseason, but the Bengals are without two defensive starters due to suspension in cornerback Adam Jones and linebacker Vontaze Burfict. Going through these ratings it looks like my computer and Las Vegas have about the same numbers. My computer calls for Cincy to win this by 4 and they are a 3 point favorite. I do not think Flacco will be insync yet (miss preseason) and call for the Bengals to grab the home win.

Defense

The Browns were 4-0 in the preseason, but Hue Jackson said he wanted to win to create a successful environment to start off the 2017 campaign. This time the opponent wants to win just as much and the Steelers are a much more talented team. A surprising stat is that the Steelers potent offense only managed 313 and 312 yards in the two games versus the Browns No. 31 defense of 2016. Rookie DeShone Kizer takes on a defense that put in a full game plan for the first time. Pittsburgh even scooped up cornerback Joe Haden after the Browns let him go and Steelers fans usually make up a good portion of First Energy Stadium. Cleveland is just 2-10-1 ATS as a home dog the last two years and Myles Garrett will miss this game for Cleveland. I like the Steelers more than my computer does.

Las Vegas LineThe Colts are a much weaker team when Andrew Luck is not on the field and Las Vegas originally had the Colts favored by three and with him out, they are a 3.5 point dog. Scott Tolzien has a career ratio of 2-7. The Rams were 0-7 straight up and ATS in Jared Goff’s starts last year, but I will take a second year Goff over Tolzien. The Rams also rate a large edge on defense even if their star holdout Aaron Donald continues to be absent. While the Rams should win this game, do you trust a team that was 0-2 as a favorite last year laying over a field goal? My computer has the game a toss up. This should be a lower scoring game.

Phil's Forecast:

I project these two in the NFC title game this year. Green Bay is 8-1-1 ATS in home openers and the home team in this series has covered five straight with the average win by 20 points per game. I feel that Seattle is the stronger team as they clearly have the better defense, while Pete Carroll is 10-3-3 ATS as an underdog the last five years. I personally find it tough to go versus either of these two squads but my computer likes the underdog a lot as it calls for an outright upset and they are a 3 point dog. I will let the computer handle this forecast since I am torn.

Phil's Forecast:

I know that San Francisco has won their last two home openers by a combined 51-3 margin and that Carolina is just 0-6-1 ATS as an away favorite. I have the Panthers as one of the most improved teams in the NFL and looking much more like the 2015 version. I have the Niners at the bottom. Carolina needs to get their season started right and are the much more talented team. Last year’s record gives us spread value here as I think it will for most of the first half of the year. My computer has Carolina winning this 25-18 and I will expand on that a bit.

Dallas By 6.0

The Giants have one of the best defenses in the NFL and Eli Manning has a dynamic receiving corps to throw to. Last year they held Dallas to 13 points per game, while the Cowboys averaged 28.4 ppg in their other 15 games. If you ask me for the straight up winner on this game I am torn and could make a good case for either team. I am surprised that Dallas is -4.5 especially with the Giants having covered the last 5 in the series. I like the underdog here.Ny Giants 315 - 307

Phil SteeleBy 0.31 Points Minnesota by 3 Minnesota 24 New Orleans 21

My computer has Minnesota a half point better and they are at home. It comes up with a forecast of 24-19. New Orleans is 9-1 ATS on the road and has a very motivated Adrian Petersen. I give a large defensive edge to the Vikings and a large offensive edge to the Saints. This is a game I would favor the home team by a FG but my computer calls for them to win by 5.

Phil's Forecast:Comp-Att-Yds DEN KICKER

Las Vegas Line

The Chargers were the king of the blown 4th quarter lead last year, but figure to be one of the most improved teams in the NFL this year. They are 11-3 as a division away dog and with Wade Phillips leaving Denver I do not think their defense will be as strong. Philip Rivers over Trevor Siemian at QB is a pretty large edge. I rate teams equal talent wise and with the line at 3, I will pass, but if it goes over 3, I will take the dog but my computer actually sides with Denver.
