Agree/Disagree with Colin Cowherd’s Blazing 5 Week 2 NFL Picks (2019)
It’s Friday, which means Colin Cowherd released his popular Blazin’ 5 NFL betting picks. Cowherd had a winning week in Week 1, and generally, he does a good job prognosticating. Here’s what he has for Week 2:
LOOK: AGREE/DISAGREE BLAZIN 5 (WEEK 3)
Colin Cowherd’s Blazin’ 5 Week 2 NFL Picks
Seattle at Pittsburgh (-3.5)
Buffalo (-2) at New York Giants
Chicago at Denver (+2.5)
New Orleans at Los Angeles Rams (-2.5)
Philadelphia at Atlanta (+2)
Agree or Disagree?
Seattle at Pittsburgh (-3.5) — AGREE
The Steelers were blown out in Week 1. Like Herd, I expect them to make up for their embarrassing performance with a strong showing at home.
Buffalo (-2) at New York Giants — AGREE
These two teams (and quarterbacks for that matter) are headed in opposite directions. The Bills are a team on the cusp of being a fringe playoff contender and their quarterback, Josh Allen, is young and exciting. As for the Giants, they’re awful on defense and it’s just a matter of time before they move on from an aging Eli Manning.Â
Chicago at Denver (+2.5) — AGREE
Denver is a tough place to play and yet, we are getting almost a field goal? Sign me up! After all, I’ll take Joe Flacco over Mitchell Trubisky any day of the week.
New Orleans at Los Angeles Rams (-2.5) — DISAGREE
The Rams are a great team but there’s a revenge factor from last year’s NFC Championship Game that can’t be ignored. Give me New Orleans with the points.
Philadelphia at Atlanta (+2) — DISAGREE
Cowherd loves him some Matt Ryan. I don’t. The Eagles figured things out in the second half last week and proved they’re an improved offense with Desean Jackson back in the mix. I’d forget about laying the points, though, and just bet the Eagles on the MONEYLINE. For whatever reason, I can see the Eagles winning 24-23 or something.
