Alright. Taking Minny in this one.. Tough. I am no fan of Murray. Plus his old coach is across the field as if his weaknesses aren't already known. I actually liked GB earlier this summer. But I can't do it. I think the Vikings coach staff is really top notch. Clear edge in this game when it will matter most. We aren't laying points. We don't need to cover a number. I have a Hockenson TD prop in this one at +350. As I said. Flores DC. O'Connell HC. We saw him get everything out of Darnold for a season. I am looking for a game. GB with too many question marks for me to think they win here on the road. 4* Money Maker MINNESOTA VIKINGS

4* Total Money UNDER Tampa/ Bengals

4* Money Maker INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

Taking NEW MEXICO STATE. I didn't like Hawaii in Week 1. Didn't know how the UNLV line went from -1 to -3. They lose that one. QB doesn't look in the offense. 52% Completion percentage? Looked horrible vs UNLV 17 of 41! And we are to think they cover 10 vs New Mexico State? We saw Florida State stick around vs SMU with some turnover help. Maybe New Mexico State isn't that good, but Hawaii isn't in Florida State territory either. I wouldn't be shocked if they stole an outright win here. I had New Mexico State vs Mercyhurst last week laying 28.5. QB made some nice throws. The backup QB made some nice throws. Hawaii isn't Florida State, and they aren't Mercyhurst. But the Aggies offense is better than the Rainbows right now. 4* Money Maker NEW MEXICO STATE

4* Total Money UNDER Bills/ Texans

4* Money Maker CICINNATI BENGALS -- tough one for sure. I can't stand this Cincy coach. Guy is absolutely terrible. But I am big believer in this offense. Bucs I think take a step back this year. I like Saints and Falcons to be the teams beat in the South. Cincy to me is really in a poop or get off the pot season. Coach needs to finally start a season strong with some wins.

4* Money Maker WASHINGTON COMMANDERS

4* Money Maker CAROLINA PANTHERS -- man oh man, I can hear the Bears hype already and its barely June! I know the Panthers squeaked into the playoffs with a losing record. But I see the upside in this one. And honestly, the Bears band-wagon will be full throttle by the time the season kicks off. I am probably getting a bad number at +2.5. I am sure a +3 will rear its head eventually. Won't matter. I think Carolina wins outright.

4* Money Maker HOUSTON TEXANS -- Always such a to-do about this QB in Buffalo. I think the coach is way past his warranty. Texans had a lot of injuries last year. But this is a solid team all around. If the Bills do pull it out, I am calling 24-23. But I think that Houston wins this one outright.

4* Money Maker NEW ORLEANS SAINTS -- If you wait long enough, I think a +7.5 will pop up. I think the Lions will get some love for the season based on their schedule. Saints showed a lot of life and growth last year. I have these winning the NFC South this year. I think they take another step forward this season. Winning + covering are 2 different things. We will get the cover.
