THE PLAY: Tampa Bay Buccaneers +1.5 (-110)

The Falcons were very fortunate to beat the Saints last week considering the fact they didn’t score an offensive touchdown all game. They were outgained in total yards and rank below average on both sides of the ball in terms of EPA per play. Tampa is 7-3 SU in the last 10 meetings between the two teams and it’s hard to see Atlanta slow down Baker Mayfield and this Tampa offense. Take the Bucs. 

THE PLAY: Minnesota Vikings -2.5 (-110)

We have our first game of the season in London as the undefeated Vikings take on a Jets squad that just lost SU as big favorites to the Broncos. A bounce back isn’t likely against Minnesota, who is playing the best football in the NFL and had a sizeable lead on the road at Green Bay and held on for the victory. This game has extra meaning for the reinvented version of Sam Darnold, as he gets to take on the team that drafted him. New Yorks offense will continue to struggle against DC Brian Flores and this top-notch Minnesota defense. Justin Jefferson can win any battle and he has Jordan Addison to help if the Jets double him. Expect Minnesota to continue to roll across the pond. Take the Vikings. 

THE PLAY: Washington +1.0 (-110)

Bounce back spot for Washington after a really tough loss on the road to undefeated Rutgers, a game in which they outgained the Scarlet Knights 521-299 but failed to come away with the win. The Huskies will emphasize 3rd down conversion rate and making field goals this week in practice, but they have a veteran quarterback in Will Rogers who's up for the task of taking down Michigan. Stopping the run is the key to success because the Wolverines have a subpar quarterback and thus don’t throw much. Washington has allowed just 3.74 yards per attempt on the ground and they’re averaging 7.2 yards per play on offense. The Huskies win this one straight up at home Saturday. Take Washington.
