Ryan Fowler's Week 1 Picks (2015 Record: 46-37-2)

Jets (+2.5) over the Bengals

Solid defense and under-appreciated Ryan Fitzpatrick with Brandon Marshall, Eric Decker, Matt Forte, and Bilal Powell to help move the chains AT HOME. The Jets' a home dog Week 1? I'll roll dem dice.

Steelers (-3) over the Redskins

Washington's defense ranked 28th in yards allowed last season. Ben Roethlisberger has a knack for exploiting defensive weaknesses. It'll fall on the Steelers' defense to help me get over the (-3) hump. I have all the faith in the Pittsburgh offense to put up points.

Saints (-1.5) over the Raiders

We all want the Oakland Raiders to take that next step and I believe they are well on their way, but I also believe Drew Brees with a healthy stable of offensive weapons wins this shootout by 3-or-more points.
