NFL Week 2 Predictions

—

Friday 12/10/25

10:15am Commanders vs. Packers @ Lambeau Field

Betting Tip: Packers –3.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

It could be a close game, but the Packers were impressive when beating Detroit last week, and that’s the best form guide.

Washington was also good in beating the Giants, but playing on the road won’t be as easy, and they often struggle to win on the road.

Back the Packers to win by a touchdown.

Monday 15/10/25

3:00am Jaguars vs. Bengals @ Paycor Stadium

Betting Tip: Bengals -3.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

The Bengals are our tip to win the Super Bowl, so we’re backing them to cover the –3.5 spread against a moderate Jaguars outfit.

Joe Burrow is due for a big performance after being held in check last week, and that should translate to an easy win for the Bengals.

Take the –3.5 line before it moves.

3:00am Giants vs. Cowboys @ AT&T Stadium

Betting Tip: Cowboys -4.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

The Cowboys dug deep to lose narrowly to the Eagles last week, which was a much better performance than expected.

They only have to get past the Giants to put a win on the board, and after the Giants were hammered by Washington last week, we’re putting the Cowboys on our ticket.

3:00am Bears vs. Lions @ Ford Field

Betting Tip: Lions –3.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

We didn’t see much from the Lions last week, but we expected some teething problems in the opening week. They should perform much better for Dan Campbell on Monday morning.

The Bears gave up an 11-point fourth quarter lead to lose, and we don’t fully trust Caleb Williams to guide his team around the field.

Therefore, take the Lions to win and cover.

3:00am Rams vs. Titans @ Nissan Stadium

Betting Tip: Rams –5.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

The Rams are a team that could sneak under the radar in 2025, and we’re backing them to beat the Titans.

They looked good winning last week, and although playing on the road is a different beast, we don’t rate the Titans much.

We pick the Rams to win by a touchdown.

3:00am Patriots vs. Dolphins @ Hard Rock Stadium

Betting Tip: Patriots @ $2.03

BET NOW

It’s hard to support the Patriots and Dolphins, but the Patriots were better than the hapless Dolphins, who were awful.

The Patriots lost last week, but we saw more from Maye to back them over the Dolphins, who scored eight points on their last possession.

3:00am 49ers vs. Saints @ Caesars Superdome

Betting Tip: Saints +3.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

Injuries have once again reared their ugly head for the 49ers, who are the better team, but not without their star players.

That should be enough for the Saints to keep it close, and it’s a Saints team that has been threatening to turn their form around.

Getting a +3.5 line at home is good enough for us.

Saints by 3

3:00am Bills vs. Jets @ MetLife Stadium

Betting Tip: Bills –6.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

The Bills got away with one last week against the Ravens, but credit them for completing the comeback with no time on the clock.

They now need to focus on a desperate Jets team, who are struggling with confidence. We don’t think a +6.5 line is enough to see them cover the spread, so back the Bills.

3:00am Seahawks vs. Steelers @ Acrisure Stadium

Betting Tip: Steelers –2.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

It’s always a good defensive battle between the Seahawks and Steelers, and we’re picking the Steelers to come out ahead.

They are tough to beat at home, and we thought the line would be around –4.5. Aaron Rodgers had four touchdowns last week, so he has rediscovered his best form.

That should be enough to see them win by at least a field goal.

Steelers by 7

3:00am Browns vs. Ravens @ M&T Bank Stadium

Betting Tip: Browns +11.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

The Ravens choked last week, and we think that will have a flow-on effect against the Browns on Monday.

They gave up a big lead to the Bills, and although it’s easy to assume they will beat the Browns easily, it’s never that easy for the Ravens.

Take the outsiders to keep it close at generous odds.

Ravens by 6

—

6:05am Broncos vs. Colts @ Lucas Oil Stadium

Betting Tip: Colts @ $2.05

BET NOW

The Colts come off a solid win, and that could be all the confidence they need to go to another level.

They have the players needed to win NFL games, and with Daniel Jones getting time in the pocket, he could show off his skills.

Getting $2.05 for the Colts is a good price for the home side.

6:05am Panthers vs. Cardinals @ State Farm Stadium

Betting Tip: Cardinals –6.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

Not much is needed from the Cardinals to cover a –6.5 spread against the Panthers, so we’re including them in our NFL picks.

It’s tough to know what they will produce week-to-week, but they are 1-0, and they are a good bet to go 2-0 against a poor Panthers team.

Cardinals by 10

—

6:25am Eagles vs. Chiefs @ GEHA Field

Betting Tip: Eagles @ $1.90

BET NOW

The Chiefs didn’t impress us last week when losing to the Chargers, and the travel back from Brazil won’t help their cause.

That leaves last season’s Super Bowl champions with a good chance of winning, and the Eagles did what they needed to when beating Dallas.

It’s the game of the round, so take the $1.90 for the favourites.

Eagles by 6

10:20am Falcons vs. Vikings @ U.S. Bank Stadium

Betting Tip: Vikings –3.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

We were impressed by the Vikings comeback win over the Bears, and that should give them enough confidence to win again.

The Falcons are a tough team to back consistently, and we don’t have high hopes for them in 2025. Therefore, including the Vikings at a generous line in your NFL picks.

Tuesday 16/10/25

9:00am Buccaneers vs. Texans @ NRG Stadium

Betting Tip: Texans -2.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

There won’t be much between the Buccs and Texans, but we’re giving the edge to the home side.

They might have lost last week, but their team is too talented to drop after one performance. The Buccs are also inconsistent, so their chances of going 1-1 are strong.

Watch for any late betting moves.

Texans by 3

12:00pm Chargers vs. Raiders @ Allegiant Stadium

Betting Tip: Chargers -3.5 @ $1.90

BET NOW

Most of the money has come for the Raiders to start 2-0, but the Chargers were one of the more impressive teams in Week 1.

They got the better of the Chiefs in a tough performance, and it was good to see Justin Herbert having success.

He should dominate again, so back the Chargers –3.5.
