We're two games into the season after the 49ers surprisingly dominated the Rams in Australia on Thursday night stateside, but now our attention turns to the main slate, with 12 games on Sunday afternoon before the Cowboys and Giants square off that night, and then the Chiefs open the season by hosting the Broncos the following night. After months of tracking line movement and breaking down the matchups, we're finally ready to submit Week 1 picks for against-the-spread contests.
Many such contests feature a format where you have to pick five teams each week, and I've been playing in the major Las Vegas pick-five contests for more than a decade, finishing in the top 50 and cashing twice. I've been sharing those picks here at SportsLine for nearly as long, in addition to the full slate of picks I share for SportsLine subscribers, which include a 4-0-1 start to the regular season.
In Week 1, I'm shying away from one best bet I actually love playing in the market otherwise, and I'll explain why after giving out my top five picks.
