Week 2 NFL best Bets: Experts Weigh In on Broncos–Colts, Eagles-Chiefs, and Wilson’s Interceptions
LAS VEGAS – As the NFL enters Week 2, betting analysts are identifying key opportunities based on early-season performance and evolving team dynamics.Here’s a breakdown of top picks from leading experts.
Denver Broncos at Indianapolis Colts (Broncos -1.5, 43.5)
Analysts are eyeing a potential teaser opportunity with the Indianapolis Colts.Despite a low game total,the Colts’ performance with quarterback Daniel Jones – 22-for-29 passing in week 1 – suggests his capabilities may be underestimated by current lines. experts recommend a six-point teaser combining Colts +7.5 and Patriots +7.5. 72% of bets and 59% of money at BetMGM are currently on the Broncos -1.5.
Philadelphia Eagles at Kansas City Chiefs (-1, 47)
The Philadelphia Eagles are favored by one point, with 77% of bets and 83% of money at BetMGM backing them.One analyst has a lower power rating on the Kansas City Chiefs than the market, noting their 8-12-1 ATS record in their last 21 games (including playoffs). Injuries to Xavier Worthy and the suspension of Rashee Rice have further impacted the Chiefs’ offensive outlook. The analyst recommends betting on Eagles -1, and would consider backing the spread up to -2.
russell Wilson Interceptions
A contrarian bet focuses on Russell Wilson under 0.5 Interceptions (-110). The rationale centers on a belief that initial pricing overestimated Wilson’s potential for turnovers, given his current play style doesn’t necessarily indicate a high likelihood of interceptions. Analysts suggest the market may be overreacting to past performance.
