Bears u8.5 wins (-140, BetMGM)

Chicago has their work cut out for them in the NFC North. After going 5-12 last season, they have road games in Washington, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Philadelphia and San Francisco, not to mention playing in a division that went a combined 45-23 last season. Caleb Williams enters his second season as the Bears' quarterback and will try to improve on their 3-7 record in close games from last season. Head Coach Ben Johnson will look to improve on his teams offence, which ranked 28th in scoring last season.

The Bears will be an improved team this season, that much is clear. Their first two preseason games have shown that the offensive side of the ball is clicking much better than it did last season, but the odds of them being a +.500 team are still low. Granted, just about every expert thinks that the other teams in the division will take a step down from how they played last year, the Bears are still missing some pieces on both sides of the ball to get them back to a playoff caliber team.

Commanders to Make the Playoffs (-150, DraftKings)

Washington defied all expectations last season going 12-5 and making it all the way to the NFC title game. With potential MVP Jayden Daniels at quarterback, expectations are that the Commanders will be able to maintain the offensive production they were able to muster last season. They'll face the 7th toughest schedule in the NFL this season, but they've proved they can win in close games, going 8-2 last season in one score games. Their current line is set at over/under 9.5 wins, and will most likely end up 2nd in the NFC East.

Baltimore Ravens to win Super Bowl (+700, FanDuel)

The Ravens are the clear favorite to win their third straight AFC North crown and have moved up to #4 in the ESPN power rankings following the draft. Their current line of 11.5 wins is tied for the the highest of any team in the NFL. Quarterback Lamar Jackson is the preseason favorite to win the MVP and this could be the year that a team not named the Chiefs represents the AFC in the Super Bowl.

It wont be a walk in the park for the Ravens either. They have the ninth-toughest schedule of any team in the NFL and will have to play against every team in the NFC North, which was the toughest division in football last season. For comparison, the Buffalo Bills, who are also +700 have the 23rd toughest schedule next season. Those two teams will clash in week 1 in what could be an early preview of the AFC title game.

Lamar Jackson to win MVP (+550, DraftKings)

Jackson is a two-time MVP and three-time PFWA winner. With 4,172 yards through the air and 915 yards on the ground, Jackson was beat out last year by Josh Allen. Just looking at their numbers from last season, I'm puzzled as to why Allen won when Jackson had more yards, TDs, threw fewer INTs and had a better QBR. It's even more confusing when you consider that Jackson won the MVP in 2023 with stats that were all worse than last years. For an award that should be based on individual performance, I think Jackson got robbed last season. That being said, if he can remain healthy and lead his team to yet another AFC North championship, it would take an record-breaking performance from some other player for me to bet on anyone but Jackson to take home his 3rd MVP in 8 years.

Vikings WR Justing Jefferson To Lead NFL In Receiving Yards (+800, DraftKing)

Jefferson finished last season with 1,533 receiving yards last season, averaging 14.9 yards per catch. The Vikings are a pass-heavy offense with Sam Darnold throwing for over 4,300 yards last year. It's not out of the realm of possibility that these two are able to stay this consistent this season, if not perform even better given the overall strength of the Vikings offense. Only the duo of Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase were more productive last season as the two combined for 100.5 yards/game compared to the Vikings 90.2. Where the Vikings have a solid OL, the Bengals have one of the worst and will face much tougher teams this year than they did last season. I'm expecting their offensive production to falter while the Vikings show once again what they can do in a very difficult NFC North.
