Game Analysis & Picks
The Super Bowl Champion Los Angeles Rams will unveil their banner Thursday night to kickoff the 2022 NFL season by hosting the current Super Bowl favorite Buffalo Bills (+600) who also enter SoFi Stadium as -2.5 favorites. Both teams will begin the season relatively healthy with only Buffalo missing elite CB Tre-Davious White still recovering from a Week 12 ACL tear. It’s Week 1, there’s no current trends available so it’s best to keep things simple — I’m anticipating the Bills are ready to make a statement that this is their year while the Rams are still enjoying what they accomplished last season. For this reason let’s ride with the Bills -2.5. For the total, these are high scoring veteran led offenses who shouldn’t miss a beat. Last year the Bills were 3rd in the NFL averaging 29.8 PPG while the Rams were 6th at 27 PPG. The 52.5 over should smash tonight.
Bonus Prop
Cooper Kupp Over 7.5 Receptions (-110) & Over 94.5 Yards (-110) – With no Tre-Davious White for the Bills and Allen Robinson starting his first game for the Rams, expect the comfort of Stafford’s connection with Kupp to completely dominate in a projected high scoring game. In 2021, Kupp averaged 8.5 receptions and 114.5 yards per game.
