Matthew Freedman’s NFL Week 2 Early Bets and Trends

For the past few years, each Sunday night of the NFL season, I’ve written an early bets piece highlighting some applicable trends I’ve noticed for the upcoming week.

I'm not a trends bettor, but I find that historical situational data helps me identify spots I should consider further when analyzing games.

So here are some trends for Week 2 as well as some early Week 2 bets I’m making based on the current lines in the market and my early personal projections (which are likely to change throughout the week as I make updates).

Note: These aren’t all the trends I’m seeing and all the early bets I’m making. These are just a few of them. For more of my early Week 2 bets, check out the BettingPros App.

All lines and odds are from the BettingPros NFL odds page and as of Sept. 11. All the historical trends information is from Action Network and goes back to 2003. Abbreviations: Against the spread (ATS), return on investment (ROI), moneyline (ML).
