NFL Sunday Betting tips and predictons | Week 2, 2023 preview

NFL week 2 tips - Sunday September 17 picks

After a low-scoring start to the NFL season in Week 1, all 32 teams return for Week 2, and hopefully, we’ll see more points. As usual, the NFL’s Sunday slate is packed with action, and we have NFL betting tips and predictions to make your Sunday (17/9, 2023) even better.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Chicago Bears tips

Rachaad White is the starting running back for Tampa Bay, and he’s getting a ton of work. Although he managed only 37 rushing yards in Week One, he had 19 carries, and that kind of volume will eventually pay off with a big game. We think it happens this week against Chicago. Chicago gave up the second-most rushing yards in the NFL last year and didn’t look any better in Week One. Take White to hit his over against one of the NFL’s worst defenses.

Rachaad White Over 54.5 Rushing Yards

Cincinnati Bengals vs Baltimore Ravens

The Bengals could not have looked worse in Week One. They were beaten by an inferior Cleveland Browns team, but it’s important not to overreact to one week. This is still one of the Super Bowl favorites that has been in two straight AFC Championship games. They will bounce back, especially in front of their home fans against one of their divisional rivals.

Cincinnati Bengals -3

Atlanta Falcons vs Green Bay Packers tip

Bijan Robinson, the Atlanta running back selected eighth overall in the 2023 NFL draft, played one game and already showed he can be one of the league’s elite playmakers. Robinson had 16 touches in Week One and scored a touchdown in a blowout win. In a game that projects to be closer, Robinson should get even more work, and his talent will be on full display. His anytime touchdown odds will only get shorter from this point on, so we recommend taking it at plus money while you can.

Jacksonville Jaguars vs Kansas City Chiefs

After two years away from football due to injuries and suspensions, Calvin Ridley picked up right where he left off in Week One. He dominated the Indianapolis defense to the tune of 101 yards and a touchdown, immediately becoming Trevor Lawrence’s go-to target. In this game against the Chiefs, with the over-under set at 51 points, books expect a lot of points. Take Ridley to score against a beatable Chiefs defense in what projects to be a shootout.

Buffalo Bills vs Las Vegas Raiders prediction

The Bills looked terrible in Week One, while the Raiders looked very good. However, it’s crucial not to overreact to just one week. The Bills won 13 games last year, while the Raiders only won five. Buffalo is a substantially better team, and we expect them to fully bounce back at home in this spot.

Buffalo Bills -8

Seattle Seahawks vs Detroit Lions

D.K. Metcalf is one of the best receivers in the NFL and is specifically known for being one of the best deep threats in the league due to his enormous frame. In this game, both teams are expected to pass the ball a lot, making it difficult for Seahawks QB Geno Smith to resist throwing to Metcalf. The Lions simply do not have a cornerback who can match up with him, and Metcalf should come down with a lot of catches in this contest. This line is too low for one of the truly elite matchup nightmares in the NFL. This bet is paying $1.91 with Australian online bookmakers.

D.K. Metcalf Longest Reception Over 23.5 Yards

Los Angeles Rams vs San Francisco 49ers tips

This should be an interesting game between two standout teams from Week One. One key difference between them is that the Rams weren’t expected to be very good. However, this team won the Super Bowl two years ago, and while they had an awful 2022-2023 campaign, we believe they may be better than expected. As a home underdog in a divisional game, we expect them to keep it close against a very strong Niners squad.

Los Angeles Rams +8.5

New England Patriots vs Miami Dolphins

This line doesn’t make sense. Rhamondre Stevenson is the running back for the Patriots but has become one of their best playmakers in the passing game. That was fully on display in Week One when Stevenson had 64 receiving yards. That role isn’t going away, and in this game where the Pats are underdogs, they should pass a lot. When that happens, Rhamondre is involved. This is a great bet on a guy who could easily clear this number on one play.

Rhamondre Stevenson Over 20.5 Receiving Yards
