I'm still analyzing. The first thing I look at his home dogs. But I don't really like Miami, Jax, Carolina, Arizona or Oakland.

Maybe AZ. I haven't studied the rest. Week 1 is always a crap shoot.

I know Dave Tuley of ESPN always like home dogs, so I look at those closely too.

I kind of like the Redskins, Titans, Falcons, Dolphins and Bengals. Houston's a tough one to go with because the Saints were killing people last year often. Redskins are a bit tough too but getting those big point totals at home are tough, especially in week one when teams are fired up.

After watching Packers-Bears, a 15-team under parlay is kind of tempting.

After watching some of last nights game I may take the angle of fading QBs that didn't play in the pre-season. Rivers, Goff, Wentz would be those guys.

I am obviously biased, but I think Rivers is often underrated...especially in fantasy. They have a strong receiving unit too. Mike Williams is finally settling in and the return of Hunter Henry at TE is huge. And of course Keenan Allen is almost automatic for short yardage situations, but he can do just about anything.

I’m definitely pro Rivers. But don’t hate the Colts getting a tudder.

Week 1 is tough. I think I'm going with Tampa, AZ and KC.

Rookie QBs are tough. Being from AZ I'm pulling for Kyler Murray to be a stud, but I imagine he will face all sorts of pressure. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a tough start. Though he has only lost like 3 games in his whole life, so who knows? Hoping David Johnson has a big bounce back year too. He should have a lot more space with the spread offense.

Lions lost to rookie Darnold last year in game 1, maybe they lose to Murray this year in week1.

With the way the Giants defense looked, I think it's a safe bet to say that taking the under was a good idea.
