Even those not on the West Coast could have a little more interest in making Week 2 NFL picks on either the Rams or 49ers. How those teams respond after playing in Australia last week is something that will be highly observed. Both are fortunate to have home games on the Week 2 NFL schedule, with San Fran hosting Miami on Sunday, and L.A. hosting the Giants on Monday. The Niners are 13.5-point favorites for their contest, which is the biggest NFL spread of the young season.

Top Week 2 NFL predictions<\/p>\n

We can tell you one of the model’s strongest Week 2 NFL picks for the best betting apps<\/a> is that the Seahawks (-4, 41) cover at Arizona in a Sunday 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. Seattle prevailed in the Kickoff Game last Wednesday, and the Seahawks are 6-1 against the spread when having a rest advantage since the start of the 2025 season. Though it’s not like the reigning champs need extra rest — or even QB Sam Darnold (out) — versus Arizona as the Seahawks have defeated the Cardinals in nine straight, going 8-1 ATS over this stretch. The Cards were impressive in upsetting the Chargers in Week 1, but the former still showed its flaws as its 111 penalty yards were the second most in Week 1. The Seahawks are forecasted to cover the spread nearly 60% of the time in an A-rated pick.\u00a0See which other teams to pick here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Another one of its Week 2 NFL predictions: the Buccaneers (-8.5, 41.5) cover versus the Browns as Tampa is forecasted to cover in well over 50% of simulations. Perhaps no team looked worse in Week 1 than Cleveland, as the Browns allowed 34 points to Jacksonville, saw Deshaun Watson get sacked five times, and only managed a garbage-time touchdown versus backups. The Bucs disappointed themselves in a loss at Cincy but a return home should help as Cleveland’s 4-14 ATS road mark since 2024 is the worst record in the NFL. The model also has the Over hitting more thaan 60% of the time.\u00a0See which other teams to pick here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
