There's nothing better than football season, right? We're only one week in and it feels like there's a boatload of drama, new storylines, injuries, and a ton else to sink our teeth into over the coming days before Week 2 even rolls around.While it was great to fully embrace football back in the world, the gamblings weren't too kind to begin the year as we went 6-10 ATS overall on the opening slate. We were given a few bad beats with the allowing the to rally late, the taking until the fourth quarter to get moving against Atlanta, and the displaying unbelievably poor goal-line prowe s. That said, down weeks are going to happen and I'm happy we're getting ours out of way early.We'll look to bounce back in Week 2 where there are a bunch of fascinating games, beginning with Chargers-Chiefs which just so happens to be included in my five locks of the week.Regular seasonLocks of the Naji Ozeir Jersey Week ATS: 1-4ATS:6-10ML:7-9Turns out that is still pretty good at football even without . The Chiefs quarterback looked like a man on a mi sion to begin the 2022 season and to sed five touchdowns in Kansas City's blowout win over the . Mahomes completed pa ses to nine different Chiefs and threw only nine incompletions. I expect he keeps this training rolling on a short week when they open up Arrowhead Stadium against the Chargers. As a home favorite, Kansas City is 6-1 ATS in their last seven games. While Los Angeles boasts just as impre sive of a quarterback in , they will likely be without receiver in this matchup, and starting corner still has his status in the air as he looks to make his season debut. Given those questions on L.A.'s roster, four points Jake Long Jersey aren't enough to sway me away from the Chiefs, who own one of the best home-field advantages in the NFL.Projected score:Chiefs 31, Chargers 24The pick:Chiefs -4Sometimes an opponent just has your number. That's exactly the case here with the Saints hosting the Buccaneers. Since arriving to Tampa Bay, has yet to beat New Orleans, heading into this matchup 0-4. The Saints succe s against the Bucs, however, does predate Brady as they are 7-1 ATS in their last eight meetings overall. Yes, New Orleans struggled and narrowly defeated the last week, but I expect to see a more well-rounded attack from them after shaking off the rust in Week 1.If is going to look like the quarterback he was in the fourth quarter last Sunday where he completed 13-of-16 for 213 yards and two touchdowns, they'll be able to go toe-to-toe with a Bucs offense that will likely be without (hamstring). The underdog is also 4-0 ATS in this head-to-head throughout Brady's time with the Bucs.Projected score:Saints 27, Buccaneers 24The pick:Saints +3The New York Football Giants contributed to one of the more notable upsets of the Week 1 slate as they took down the in Nashville. The Brian Daboll Jaaron Simmons Jersey era continues to start on a positive note when they head back to MetLife Stadium to take on the Carolina Panthers. They are coming off an opening lo s to the where they were gashed on the ground for 217 yards on a 5.6 yards per carry clip. Given that looks back to his prime self following a 164-yard rushing performance in Week 1, it looks like he's in a position to run New York to a 2-0 record.Over their last 16 games, Carolina is 3-13 ATS and has been a poor bet coming off a lo s as of late, owning an 0-6 ATS mark. Projected score:Giants 23, Panthers 20The pick:Giants -2.5This is the perfect spot for the Bengals to get right after a rough showing in the Gerald Ford Jersey overtime lo s to the . They played po sibly their worst game imaginable (five turnovers) and were still within striking distance of the win. With that sour taste of Week 1 still in their mouths, the Bengals will be looking to right the ship in Dallas and the Cowboys are ripe for the picking following thumb injury. Mike McCarthy's club is now down its top two players on the offensive side of the ball in Prescott and left tackle . While ' (concu sion) status will be worth watching, the Bengals have plenty of firepower to outrun a Cooper Rush-led Cowboys offense.Cincinnati was also pretty resilient last year following a lo s with a 5-2 ATS record. They are currently on a 5-0 ATS steak on the road.Projected score:Bengals 30, Cowboys 20The pick:Bengals -7.5New England's offense continues to look disjointed and now they are dealing with a banged-up after he suffered a back injury in the opener against Miami. His status for this game isn't really in question, but one does wonder if he'll be limited at all as the Patriots head to Pittsburgh. While the Steelers will be without star pa s-rusher (pectoral), they still have a defense that should give this Pats offense fits as they still look to form Erik Magnuson Jersey an identity. Yes, Pittsburgh's offensive line is also a ma sive question and their offense didn't exactly light it up in the opening win, but they simply have more playmakers than the Patriots at this point. When that's the case and they are getting points as a home dog, it's hard not to lean that way. New England also travels to Pittsburgh on an 0-4 ATS streak on the road.Projected score:Steelers 23, Patriots 21The pick:Steelers +1.5 at BrownsProjected score:Jets 24, Browns 20The pick:Jets +6Commanders at Projected score:Lions 23, Commanders 21The pick:Commanders +2.5 at JaguarsProjected score:Colts 30, Jaguars 24The pick:Colts -4 at Projected score:Ravens 23, Dolphins 20The pick:Dolphins +3.5Falcons at Projected score:Rams 31, Falcons 20The pick:Rams -10.5 at Projected score:49ers 24, Seahawks 20The pick:Seahawks +10 at BroncosProjected score:Broncos 28, Texans 17 The pick:Broncos -10 Cardinals at Projected score:Raiders 28, Cardinals 24The pick:Cardinals +6 at Projected score:Packers 30, Bears 17The pick:Packers -10Titans at Projected score:Bills 33, Titans 21The pick:Bills -10 at Projected score:Eagles 30, Vikings 27The pick:Eagles -2
