Rotation #458
Ravens -3 over Lions (win)
Ravens/Lions Over 43.5 (win)
The Lions shocked the football world in the first game of the year, beating the Chiefs on the road. Detroit will compete today, but they need to be more sound at the running back position and will lean on the untested Jahmyr Gibbs to run the football. If the Lions had any lead, it might be tough to hold onto it with a rookie running back. The Ravens’ identity is unchanged as they play solid defense, run the football well, and find tight end Mark Andrews when they need a big play. Baltimore is a tough place to play, and you must be full strength to beat them. The Lions are not, but Jared Goff will find his receivers today. Baltimore is better on both sides of the ball and should win a high-scoring game at home. Take the Ravens and the Over. Both are straight wagers.

Rotation #464
Seahawks -8.5 over Cardinals (win)
Seattle is a tough place to play, especially for a first-year coaching staff, a backup quarterback, the worst offensive line in the NFL, and a running game missing its key pieces. Seattle should run the ball well with Kenneth Walker, and Geno Smith should find his reliable targets. The Arizona secondary gets Budda Baker back, but they are thin and vulnerable. The crowd noise will be too much for the Cardinals to handle, and Seattle should run away with a double-digit victory. Take the Seahawks

Rotation #465
Steelers +3 over Rams (win)
The Rams need help at the running back position as they traded Cam Akers and are without their new starter, Kyren Williams, and his backup, Ronnie Rivers, for today’s game. Pittsburgh has an outstanding defense and can now focus most of its attention on Matthew Stafford. The Rams have offensive line issues and will have an unbalanced attack today. The Pittsburgh secondary is licking its chops. Pittsburgh has flaws, but their offensive line is healthy and should run first with Najee Harris to soften up the secondary, which certainly can be beaten. The Steelers will win in the trenches and secure a big road win with many of their fans traveling with them. Take the Steelers..
