The NFL season continues after an exciting first week of the regular season. A lot of the underdogs have won outright in their first game, so what should we expect from the best matchups of week 2?
The Philadelphia Eagles will host the Minnesota Vikings in a Thursday night game. The Vikings are coming off a home loss as big favorites to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which is their fifth defeat in a row. Philadelphia’s quarterback Jalen Hurts played one game against this Vikings team and had 2 touchdowns. He also averaged a TD per game last year, so Jalen Hurts to score a rushing touchdown at 1.90 (9/10) has a good value.
The Cincinnati Bengals had one of their worst performances in the last NFL 2023 divisional game against the Cleveland Browns. They will be playing another divisional matchup this week against the Ravens, and they can’t afford to lose. The Bengals have beaten Baltimore in four of their last five head-to-head games. Joe Burrow will be ready to bounce back with a big win here, so the Cincinnati Bengals -3 point handicap @ 1.90 (9/10) is a good play in this game.
