Mike: "Houston's defence can keep the Chiefs in check long enough to make the bet on under 54.5 points a good one."
Kieran: "We all agree on that bet."
Mike: "If you like the Dolphins to win this, I'd be tempted to bet them on the moneyline at 23/10 rather than back the Dolphins with the -6.5 handicap."
John: "The Dolphins will be an unknown quantity for the Patriots and can cause them problems."
John: "Tampa are a project and we don't know how it will work on the field. It's like somebody's fantasy team from 2016."
Mike: "This is a really tight game. I think Tampa are going to be much better this year, thanks in part to Tom Brady joining from the Patriots."
John: "I think they Saints will win handsomely and will back them -3.5 points at 10/11."
Mike: "In an empty stadium, if Tampa's offence is ready to go, that could decide things. That would make 6/4 on Tampa a good bet."
Monday and Tuesday games
Dallas Cowboys @ LA Rams
Mike: "I like the over 51.5 points in this at 11/10. Both teams have defensive weaknesses."
Pittsburgh Steelers @ New York Giants
John: "Pittsburgh should be stronger this year. The Giants should put on a show too. I'm going to back over 47.5 points in this one."
Mike: "I like the Steelers -5.5 points here."
Best Bets
John: Over 47.5 in Las Vegas Raiders @ Carolina Panthers
Mike: The Cincinnati Bengals + 3.5 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
John: Under 39.5 points in New York Jets @ Buffalo Bills.
