NFL Week 1: St. Louis Rams @ DETROIT LIONS (-7)



It's finally here, the NFL is back and every week I'll be making just one banker pick that can hopefully multiply a single pound.

Most of the week 1 temptations are for the favourites, with the Texans still looking a strong bet even after a shift from -8 to -12.5. The Eagles have a point to prove this year, and value of evens can be found at -9, away against Cleveland.

Teams with a positive handicap look much harder to choose; Buffalo may sneak a win away at the Jets, who have many questions heading into this season. Carolina are also carrying promise of an away win at Tampa Bay.

New England's game against Tennessee is one I would leave, with my only recommendation that it may go over 47 points.

A long-odds pick is the 49ers to win against Green Bay; they're more than capable. That's around 2/1

My poundtoathousand pick for week 1 is the DETROIT LIONS -7 at Evens.

At home to a less talented Rams side, the Lions have a point to prove this season; they are good enough to challenge the elite.
