Week 2 in the NFL is about to start and its time to put to work Bet Calculators from sites like www.jollyodds.com to find the best bets to place on the weekend’s games. Below we make our predictions for the top three picks to back.

 

Cincinnati Bengals Vs Pittsburgh Steelers

 

The Bengals have one of the best defenses in the NFL and last season they were one of the best of keeping play out of the end zone. The one thing they greatly need to improve on this season is the amount of surrendered receptions. Last year the were tied bottom with The Giants at 101.Their week 1 opponents The Jets were not able to take advantage of this weakness. Their biggest success came through Quincy Enunwa the slots wide receiver.

 

The Steelers biggest job this season was replacing Heath Miller and the new boy James has got off to a flyer. Hopefully, for The Steelers, he can keep up his form and stay injury free. He has already built up a great understanding with Ben Roethlisberger managing to catch five out of seven passes. He played every minute of the defensive snap and will be a key figure if The Steelers are going to win.

 

Prediction is for The Steelers to snatch the win

 

Oakland Raiders Vs Atlanta Falcons

 

During the off season, The Raiders spent $38 million on Sean Smith to sign him to a four-year contract. They may be regretting that decision now as during the first game he was hauled off at half-time.He was getting destroyed and even admitted so in an interview after the New Orleans game.

 

The Falcons are a high powered attacking machine and Smith will have to cope with it or risk losing his place in the team. Matt Ryan is Julio Jones number one choice but Mohamed Sanu at 6` 2” had an impressive first game managing 80 yards and five catches.

 

Prediction is for The Atlanta Falcons to win.

   

Indianapolis Colts Vs Denver Broncos

   

The Broncos are the team to look out for and many expect them to go all the way this season. In week 1 they showed why so many punters are backing them as they dominated the game. This season they have a new offensive line behind C.J. Anderson they manage 92 yards along with a Touchdown against Carolina.

 

The Colts will be worried about that statistic as in their season opener their defensive line was destroyed by Theo Riddick and Ameer Abdullah The Lions backs. They managed 108 yards for rushing averaging 5.7 yards along with receiving 120 yards.

 

The Colts linebackers were dominated in their opener with Jackson leading the line they managed only two tackles. If they are going to win this weekend he will have to greatly improve. The Broncos have Anderson, Devontae Booker, and Kapri Bibbs that can do some serious damage and win the game.

 

Prediction is for The Denver Broncos to win.
