We are a little over a week away from the start of the 2017 NFL regular season. This is the very last minute to start thinking about possible bets for over/under regular season team wins. I wanted to wait on this post since injuries have affected my decisions in a big way. Also, position battles swung a few decisions, like Deshone Kizer winning the starting quarterback job in Cleveland.
We didn’t just look at the lines and guess at our over/under picks. We went through the entire schedule in the NFL and picked every game.
A lot can happen from now until the end of the season (injuries, coaching changes, etc). We will attempt to help you make a better decision on which teams to lay bets on.
This year’s over/under lines are pretty damn tight. A single half-win swayed many of my votes. I took my sweet time and have been studying these season win total prop bets.
I also had to look very close at divisions that could have as many as three teams good enough to win the division. The NFC North, AFC West and NFC South are three of those divisions. I could like a team like the Saints, but their schedule is just filled with stud NFC South teams.
