NFL Week 1 Game Picks

Did anyone else wake up like it was Christmas morning today? It’s Football Sunday, meaning there was zero chance I was sleeping in.

As we will every week, the staff at Bolts From the Blue have compiled our weekly picks. My favorite picks of the week on DraftKings Sportsbook are the Jaguars (-4.5) against the Colts, and our very own Chargers (-3) against the Dolphins. The Dolphins are having an unlucky bout with the injury bug, as De’Von Achane and Terron Armstead are both listed as OUT, and Liam Eichenburg is recovering from a rib injury. A healthy Khalil Mack and Joey Bosa should have ample opportunity to put on a display. The Jaguars have had the Colts’ number in recent years, and their trendline seems to be pointed in a very positive direction. Shane Steichen is a very promising coach, but it will likely take some time and the return of his star running back Jonathon Taylor to help turn the Colts around.

If you want to follow along with us, I made another Google Form for our members to log their own weekly picks! I’ll follow up with the results later in the week.

Have an amazing Sunday everyone!
