THE MAIN EVENT: Aaron Rodgers in the House of T-Pain
EXPERT PICKS: Will Baker Mayfield cough one up?
PROS vs JOES: The Sharps vs the Shawns

KEY FACTS: T-Pain is performing at halftime and Justin Jefferson hopes to dole some out after torching the Pack for 10-169-2 in the teams’ Nov. 21 meeting. Aaron Rodgers lost his security blanket (Davante Adams) and GB’s top replacement, Allen Lazard, is doubtful (ankle).
TRENDING: Rodgers has vanquished all six divisional opponents he has faced to open the season – 6-0 straight up, 5-1 ATS.
INSIGHT: The Packers are a public choice (60% spread bets), but the big bets are on the Vikes (63% spread handle).
Expert Picks
Behold the glory of our first NFL Sunday. Whose predictions will be sharper – Jay Croucher or Ryan Leaf?
THE BOOK
1. Baker Mayfield to throw an Interception (+100)*
Bet The Edge Boost of the Week
"Mayfield has thrown a pick in nine of his last 10 games, and Cleveland's defense is loaded."
Bucs-Cowboys Under 50.5 (-107)
"The Cowboys have very little at receiver behind CeeDee Lamb, and the Bucs are banged up on the offensive line."
THE BIG NAME
Chiefs -6.5 (-107)
“The injury to Arizona’s Rondale Moore is huge. We saw what a one-receiver offense (Rams) looks like versus a good defense (Bills).”
CeeDee Lamb Over 70.5 Receiving Yards (-125)
“He's the the only guy! So he will have opportunities and targets."

Rationale: The pro bettors/sharps note that Indy has lost an astounding eight straight Week 1 games.
2. Giants (+5) @ Titans
Pros: TEN 69% handle
Joes: NYG 54% tickets
Rationale: The public is banking on the Titans QB to “Tannethrill” his way through the G-men’s dreadful secondary. The sharps think an able-bodied Saquon Barkley will help keep it close.
3. 49ers (-6.5) @ Bears
Pros: CHI 53% handle
Joes: SF 53% tickets
Rationale: The Joes forecast no home Fields advantage.
4. Patriots (+3.5) @ Dolphins
Pros: NE 55% handle
Joes: MIA 55% tickets
Rationale: The public likes Tua to tango to a solid victory.
KEY FACTS: Tom Brady has lost more arguments to Gisele than games to the Cowboys; he is 6-0 against Dallas. Flip side, Dallas has won seven straight as a home ‘dog, and Dak Prescott is 12-3 SU and 10-5 ATS in prime time.
TRENDING: The Over is 7-1 in the Bucs’ last eight games.
