NFL Week 1 odds For Every Game
It might seem like the confetti was just raining over Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes and the rest of the Chiefs in commemoration of their second straight Super Bowl title, but the new NFL season is upon us. Here are live Week 1 NFL point spreads, moneylines and over unders for each game on the slate.
Houston Texans () at Indianapolis Colts ()
- Point Spread: Texans () at Colts ()
- Moneyline: Texans () at Colts ()
- Total:
The Texans will be shouldering hefty expectations after shocking the NFL world last season and getting into the second round of the postseason despite some key injuries.
C.J. Stroud has set the bar high after a spectacular rookie campaign, and Houston loaded up around him this offseason with the addition of Joe Mixon and Stefon Diggs. Meanwhile, the Colts’ own dynamic young signal-caller, Anthony Richardson, will be making his long-awaited return from injury and will undoubtedly be eager to showcase his own game-breaking ability that we saw glimpses of during his brief rookie year.
The Texans have actually opened as 1.5-point road favorites, while the projected total is as high as 48.5 points.
Jacksonville Jaguars () at Miami Dolphins ()
- Point Spread: Jaguars () at Dolphins ()
- Moneyline: Jaguars () at Dolphins ()
- Over Under:
Two Florida squads that fell short of expectations to varying degree in 2023 face off to start a season of renewed optimism. The Jaguars missed the playoffs altogether at 9-8 and lost Calvin Ridley in free agency, but they’ve restocked with Gabe Davis and rookie first-round pick Brian Thomas Jr.
On the other side, Mike McDaniel’s explosive offense made some serviceable veteran additions in Jonnu Smith and Odell Beckham, but the defense could be challenged early with both Bradley Chubb and Jalean Phillips potentially missing the start of the season.
The Dolphins have opened as -3.5 favorites and the projected total notably sits as high as 49.5 points.
Minnesota Vikings () at New York Giants ()
- Point Spread: Vikings () at Giants ()
- Moneyline: Vikings () at Giants ()
- Over Under:
The Vikings had been favored in this game by around -2.5 for months until it was learned that rookie JJ McCarthy would miss the entire season with a meniscus injury. Minnesota will now have to get the job done with Sam Darnold under center. Darnold will be set up for early success thanks to a rich array of offensive weapons that includes offseason addition Aaron Jones and elite receiver Justin Jefferson.
Meanwhile, the Giants will roll out sixth overall pick Malik Nabers for the first time in this matchup, and the game will also mark the start of a season that likely decides Daniel Jones’ future with the team.
New England Patriots () at Cincinnati Bengals ()
- Point Spread: Patriots () at Bengals ()
- Moneyline: Patriots () at Bengals ()
- Over Under:
The Patriots sideline will never quite look the same without the scowl of Bill Belichick in the center of it, but this game indeed begins a new era for the fabled franchise. Jerod Mayo’s head coaching debut comes against a Bengals team that figures to have Joe Burrow back under center after a wrist injury cut short his season.
Cincy’s new-look backfield will also be a point of interest, as the Zack Moss – Chase Brown tandem is set to helm the ground attack with Joe Mixon now in Houston. The Bengals have notably opened as up to -9 home favorites on NFL Week 1 odds boards while the projected total is as high as 43 points.
“So far we’ve taken little to no action on the Patriots. I think we’ll continue to take a lot of Bengals bets. I don’t foresee many Patriots bets,” said BetMGM’s Christian Cipollini.
Pittsburgh Steelers () at Atlanta Falcons ()
- Point Spread: Steelers () at Falcons ()
- Moneyline: Steelers () at Falcons ()
- Over Under:
New Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith will ironically work his first regular season game in his new capacity in the stadium where he earned plenty of the Falcons’ faithful’s ire as the head coach. Smith will be working with a revamped Pittsburgh QB room and will have the horses in the backfield to deploy the run-heavy scheme he’s fond of, but it may prove difficult keeping up with the new Kirk Cousins-led Atlanta attack with a ground-centric attack.
NFL Week 1 odds show that the Falcons are up to -3 favorites in the initial line, while the game carries a projected total of 43 points.
Carolina Panthers () at New Orleans Saints ()
- Point Spread: Panthers () at Saints ()
- Moneyline: Panthers () at Saints ()
- Over Under:
The Panthers are starting over again in a sense for the second straight season, with one of the brightest young offensive minds in the league, Dave Canales, tasked with turning former first overall pick Bryce Young around after a mostly disastrous rookie year. Veteran Diontae Johnson and rookies Xavier Legette and Jonathon Brooks constitute the most noteworthy additions on the offensive side of the ball, while the Saints curiously remained static on offense and are banking on Derek Carr having a better command of the offense in Year 2 with the team.
The Saints are up to -5.5 favorites at the open, while the projected total is just 40.5 points.
Tennessee Titans () at Chicago Bears ()
- Point Spread: Titans () at Bears ()
- Moneyline: Titans () at Bears ()
- Over Under:
The Bears will be the subject of plenty of scrutiny all summer heading into the season, and this will be the game where the Caleb Williams era officially begins in the Windy City. Offseason additions D’Andre Swift (free agent), Keenan Allen (trade) and Rome Odunze (draft) will round out an incumbent offensive group that was already showing promise last season.
The visiting Titans will feature a ground attack not including Derrick Henry for the first time since 2015, but the Tony Pollard-Tyjae Spears duo does have plenty of explosive potential. The Chicago Bears opened as -4.5 favorites, according to NFL Week 1 odds, and the game has a projected total of up to 44 points at the open.
Arizona Cardinals () at Buffalo Bills ()
- Point Spread: Cardinals () at Bills ()
- Moneyline: Cardinals () at Bills ()
- Over Under:
Another interconference clash that will garner plenty of Week 1 attention is one featuring the debut of the Kyler Murray- Marvin Harrison Jr. duo against a revamped Bills offense that has plenty of question marks surrounding it heading into the new campaign. How Josh Allen will function without Stefon Diggs, and to a lesser extent, Gabe Davis, begins to be explored in earnest starting with this game, although much is expected from Khali Shakir and rookie Keon Coleman as far as filling the void is concerned.
The Bills have opened as a full -7 favorite despite the offseason exodus of talent, while the projected total checks in as high as 49 points.
Dallas Cowboys () at Cleveland Browns ()
- Point Spread: Cowboys () at Browns ()
- Moneyline: Cowboys () at Browns ()
- Over Under:
There will be plenty of attention on America’s Team as the new season dawns, even after yet another postseason failure this past January. With no upgrades to the depth behind CeeDee Lamb at receiver and a baffling reversion to Ezekiel Elliott at running back, it’s fair to wonder if Mike McCarthy isn’t set up for another stumble and a ticket out of town. For their part, the Browns, unlikely postseason qualifiers a year ago, will hope this is the season they finally start seeing a return on the massive Deshaun Watson investment/gamble.
Dak Prescott and the Cowboys opened as -1.5 road favorites over the Browns. That number starting going the Browns way over the course of the summer, however, and landed at Browns -2.5 by the end of August. Dallas versus Cleveland opened with a 43.5 over/under.
Las Vegas Raiders () at Los Angeles Chargers ()
- Point Spread: Raiders () at Chargers ()
- Moneyline: Raiders () at Chargers ()
- Over Under:
Antonio Pierce accomplished the relatively rare feat of upgrading his interim head coach title this offseason after leading the Raiders to a strong second half of the 2023 campaign. However, Vegas couldn’t snag a first-round-worthy quarterback and will therefore enter the new season with either Aidan O’Connell or veteran offseason addition Gardner Minshew.
In turn, the Chargers have their quarterback situation cemented with Justin Herbert, but they also have plenty of question marks after letting Keenan Allen, Mike Williams and Austin Ekeler go this offseason. NFL Week 1 odds show that the Chargers are up to 3.5-point home favorites in the opening line, while the total checks in at 43.5 points.
Denver Broncos () at Seattle Seahawks ()
- Point Spread: Broncos () at Seahawks ()
- Moneyline: Broncos () at Seahawks ()
- Over Under:
Some say the Broncos overreached by taking Bo Nix with the 12th overall pick, but it could well be the long-tenured college quarterback under center for Denver to open the season. However, if it is indeed the rookie who gets the call, he’ll be working with what appears to be a highly suspect receiving corps that has very little in terms of proven depth behind Courtland Sutton and newcomer Josh Reynolds.
The Seahawks start the post-Pete Carroll era with this battle between one-time AFC West rivals, but the offensive cast is replete with familiar faces such as Geno Smith, Kenneth Walker, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, among others. The Seahawks are up to -5 home favorites in the opening line and the projected total comes in at 42.5 points.
Washington Commanders () at Tampa Bay Buccaneers ()
- Point Spread: Commanders () at Buccaneers ()
- Moneyline: Commanders () at Buccaneers ()
- Over Under:
Two veteran defensive coaches in Dan Quinn, who’ll be starting his tenure as the head man in the nation’s capital, and Todd Bowles square off in this season-opening matchup. Both clubs are considered borderline postseason contenders in what is expected to be a very tough NFC, and the Commanders will likely be rolling with second overall pick Jayden Daniels right from the onset of his career.
Austin Ekeler also heads up a new Washington backfield, while Daniels’ fellow rookies Luke McCaffrey and Ben Sinnott could also play key roles early. Then, Baker Mayfield will be gunning to prove his resurgent 2023 was no fluke while working with all of the same core pieces that facilitated that success. The Bucs are up to -5 home favorites to start, while the projected total is one of the lowest of the slate at 42.5 points.
LA Rams () at Detroit Lions ()
- Point Spread: Rams () at Lions ()
- Moneyline: Rams () at Lions ()
- Over Under:
This rematch of January’s NFC Divisional Round matchup should make for highly intriguing prime-time viewing, considering the sheer offensive firepower on either side. Both clubs will unsurprisingly rely once again on their excellent core pieces – the Rams’ offense should run through Kyren Williams, Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, while the Lions’ attack will largely center on Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Both teams have designs on the high-level achievement after successful 2023 seasons, and this could be another very hard-fought battle akin to last season’s playoff battle. Opening NFL Week 1 odds showed the Lions -3.5 betting favorites, while the projected total is an unsurprisingly elevated 51.5.
New York Jets () at San Francisco 49ers ()
- Point Spread: Jets () at 49ers ()
- Moneyline: Jets () at 49ers ()
- Over Under:
The second year of the Aaron Rodgers era in the Big Apple begins on the road as the Jets will face the defending NFC Champions. In the past month, it looked as though the 49ers might be missing Brandon Aiyuk and Trent Williams but both have resolved contract issues are are expected to play against the Jets.
“Bettors haven’t really scared of the fact that Aiyuk wasn’t expected to play or Trent Williams (wasn’t expected to play),” BetMGM trading manager Christian Cipollini told Eli Hershkovich on TheLines podcast. “We’ve taken more action on the 49ers. At that 3.5 we have way more action on the 49ers, but at +4 we were taking a bit more Jets action. Some of that’s just people trying to take a key number when they think they have it.”
New York versus San Francisco opened with the 49ers as -6.5 favorites. The initial total for Jets vs. 49ers was 45.5.
Rodgers is outfitted with even better weapons this time around after the offseason additions of Mike Williams and Malachi Corley, not to mention a healthier Breece Hall. The defending NFC champs, meanwhile, are going to run it back with the same core group that fell just short of a Lombardi yet again in February.

Major NFL Week 1 Odds Movements
Week 1 NFL odds can have a considerable amount of movement over the course of the summer and in the days leading up to kickoff. Injuries play a huge factor, as do contract hold-outs. Narrative can also have an impact, though generally most current opinions on teams align with those from several months back.
The Bengals, for instance, were projected in May to have a bounceback year now that Joe Burrow is back from injury. Cincy’s Week 1 opponent, the Patriots, were projected to be among the dregs in the NFL then and that remains the case.
With that said, here are some of the more notable line movements from when lines were first released in mid-May to now.
Broncos at Seahawks
- Opening spread: Seahawks -4.5
- Current spread: Seahawks -6
Seahawks versus Broncos has seen Seattle increase its projected advantage by a point-and-a-half at most books. This may be due to Sean Payton’s recent decision to start rookie QB Bo Nix Week 1. A rookie QB on the road against a formidable defensive mind like Mike Macdonald is a tough spot for Broncos backers. Nevermind the fact that Lumen Field is considered by many to be one of the tougher places to play on the road in the NFL.
Cowboys at Browns
- Opening spread: Cowboys -1.5
- Current spread: Browns -2.5
Dallas and Cleveland, meanwhile, has seen a swing in Cleveland’s direction. Dak Prescott and the Cowboys opened as -1.5 favorites but now the Browns are favored -2.5 at most sportsbooks. The opening line from May was a bit eyebrow raising with Dallas as a road favorite against a team that has a projected win total of 8.5.
Jets at 49ers
- Opening spread: 49ers -6.5
- Current spread: 49ers -4.5
The Week 1 Monday Night Football matchup between the Jets and the 49ers has also seen some movement in favor of New York. San Francisco opened as a -6.5 betting favorite and that number has been whittled down to -4.5. The Brandon Aiyuk contract drama that filled much of the 49ers’ summer, coupled with the Christian McCaffrey calf injury, both may have played a role. Aaron Rodgers and the Jets, meanwhile, have seen their Super Bowl futures go from +2200 in May to +1800 at some books, currently. Bettors are high on the Jets entering the season.
