Dallas Cowboys vs Arizona Cardinals
Prediction
Dallas Cowboys -6.5 runs
The Cardinals are expected to be the worst team in the entire NFL. Their over/under win total of 4.5 is the lowest – and with plenty of room to spare. Kyler Murray is coming off a torn ACL and won’t be ready at this point in the season, so fading Arizona in the first few weeks – if not throughout the entire year – looks like a strong play. I’m not putting any playoff chips into the center of the Cowboys’ table, but they should once again be a solid regular-season squad. A moribund franchise like Arizona won’t have much a home-field advantage, either, so I have no reservations about giving a fair amount of points. I would jump on this line now while it’s less than a touchdown.

Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Jets predictions
Money line Philadelphia Eagles
Is there any team more overvalued than the Jets heading into the new season? Probably not! Yes, they should be pretty good. But let’s not get carried away by thinking that a quarterback who is well past his prime at 39 years old is going to take a team from 7-10 to the best in the league right away. New York is a -1 favorite, so if you factor in 3 points for home field then Philadelphia would be just a -2 favorite at a neutral location. Seriously? The Eagles are the cream of the crop in the NFC and perhaps in all of football. Let’s go with them and don’t bother with the 1 point.
