After a promising start in Week 1, he aims to continue the momentum and build a winning streak.
Here are his top picks for this week’s betting card.
Last Week: 3-2 (Season: 3-2)
(All times ET)
Sunday, Sept. 15
Chargers @ Panthers (1 p.m. CBS)
While Chris sees merit in backing Carolina, he acknowledges that the Chargers could easily find themselves in a tight contest similar to last week. The L.A. offense, heavily reliant on Justin Herbert, struggled with just 11 first downs and a mere 5.2 yards per attempt. If this trend continues, a scoreline like 20-10 is plausible. Betting enthusiasts should keep a close eye on the Chargers’ team totals throughout the season, as they are likely to trend towards the Under.
Monday, Sept. 16
Falcons @ Eagles (8:15 p.m., ESPN)
Backing the Falcons may be a challenge, particularly with Kirk Cousins not at full strength. However, the Eagles did little to ease concerns from the preseason, committing three turnovers and allowing over seven yards per play against the Packers. While a bet on Over 47 points is appealing, Chris is leaning towards Atlanta covering the 6.5-point spread.
