NFL Week 1 Early Parlay
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Leg 1: Buffalo Bills -6 vs. Arizona Cardinals (-110)
The Buffalo Bills open their 2024 NFL season at home against the Arizona Cardinals and are under a touchdown favorite. The Cardinals do have Kyler Murray at quarterback healthy again, which is great news for them.
However, Arizona’s defense is a major concern. Although Buffalo doesn’t have a true No. 1 receiver, Josh Allen can spread the ball out, while also running it himself. James Cook is also a dynamic running back who can be part of the passing game. Allen and the Bills offense should be able to score often and win by at least a touchdown in their Week 1 matchup.
Leg 2: Chicago Bears ML vs. Tennessee Titans (-198)
The Chicago Bears had a great defense last season and focused on the offense this offseason. Chicago traded for receiver Keenan Allen and then drafted receiver Rome Odunze and quarterback Caleb Williams, who will start in Week 1.
The new-look Bears offense should be able to have success against Tennessee’s defense, which ranked 17th in yards allowed last season. The Titans added Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd at receiver but lost running back Derrick Henry, a key loss to the running game, which will likely take a step back this season.
The Bears’ defense will be the difference-maker this game, as we are adding Chicago on the Moneyline to the parlay.
Leg 3: Tampa Bay ML vs. Washington Commanders (-175)
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers host the Washington Commanders in Week 1. This is a good spot to take Tampa Bay on the Moneyline.
Washington has a new quarterback in Jayden Daniels under center, but having his first NFL game on the road game should pose some problems. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay runs back a similar offense to last season, which had success with Baker Mayfield at quarterback.
The Commanders, meanwhile, gave up the most yards in the NFL on defense last season and Washington didn’t do enough this offseason to improve their defense. Mayfield and Mike Evans should be able to have success through the air to lead Tampa Bay to a Week 1 win.
