Placing Wagers on NFL Week 1: Choices for Betting, Offers, Betting Platforms, Eagles vs. Cowboys Bets, and Chiefs vs. Chargers Wagers

In the upcoming NFL season, football fans are eagerly anticipating the debut of Sam Darnold in his new team, the Seattle Seahawks. Darnold, who signed a three-year, $100.5 million contract, is set to take the field in the Seahawks' opening match.

Darnold, who threw for 4,319 yards and led his previous team to a 13-4 record last season, will be facing a challenging opponent in the San Francisco 49ers. However, the Seahawks' computer model simulation suggests Seattle to win in almost 60% of simulations against the 49ers, offering strong value at plus-money odds according to the model (Seahawks ML (+116)).

Meanwhile, the 49ers are dealing with injuries and contract disputes. Star wide receivers Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings are out and not on the field during training camp, which could potentially weaken the 49ers' offensive lineup.

Elsewhere in the league, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who have won four straight NFC South championships, are considered an underrated team in the NFL. With Baker Mayfield at the helm, the Buccaneers have shown no issues winning under different playcallers, and the model expects them to continue their winning streak in Week 1.

In Washington, the Commanders and Terry McLaurin have agreed to a new contract, ensuring Washington will have its full complement of playmakers on the field in Week 1. The Commanders went 12-7-1 against the spread last season, including the playoffs, and the model projects them to cover the spread in over 60% of simulations.
