New York Giants @ Detroit Lions
In this opener, expect to see mostly backups and young players on both sides, with the Giants’ deep wide receiver room taking the spotlight. The Lions’ starters got practice once morest the Giants this week, potentially mitigating the need for them to play extensively. The Giants’ offense, showcasing veterans and rookies, might have the upper hand once morest the Lions’ defense.
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
With Tom Brady retired, Buccaneers’ quarterback competition heats up as Baker Mayfield and Kyle Trask take the field. Both have something to prove, which might lead to an exciting game, potentially favoring the Over (39) bet. Receivers like Russell Gage and Deven Thompkins might shine, and Trask’s presence might further push the Over.
Green Bay Packers @ Cincinnati Bengals
Jordan Love and starters might play briefly, but points might flow later in the game. The Bengals’ backup quarterback competition between Trevor Siemian and Jake Browning might impact the game’s tempo. Cincinnati’s edge on defense and the potential for late scoring might make them favorable once morest the spread.
Atlanta Falcons @ Miami Dolphins
With Arthur Smith’s history of limiting starters’ preseason play, the Falcons might lean on Logan Woodside as their quarterback. Miami, led by Tua Tagovailoa, might showcase more starters. Miami’s stronger lineup and home-field advantage might lead to a victory, but backups might see significant action as well.
Washington Commanders @ Cleveland Browns
The Commanders’ improved offense and a chance to test themselves once morest Deshaun Watson offer intrigue. Cleveland’s Deshaun Watson is set to play, adding spice to the game. Washington’s quarterback competition between Jacoby Brissett and Sam Howell adds another layer, making this matchup worth watching.
Denver Broncos @ Arizona Cardinals
Backup quarterbacks take center stage, with Denver’s Jarrett Stidham and Ben DiNucci facing off once morest Arizona’s Colt McCoy and David Blough. The Cardinals’ projected weak defense and Denver’s capable backups suggest a higher-scoring game. This matchup might provide plenty of offensive action late in the game.
