The NFL regular season doesnt kick off for five months, but that doesnt mean you cant fire any football-related wagers right now. Wise guys arent necessarily spraying future bets in April, but if theres a good price available on a certain player or team, people will pounce. I like to lean on betting buddies who do this for a living to gauge their temperature. This page may contain affiliate links to legal sports betting partners.

"I think the Lions are a good team to back this season," Pizzola told me. "The average person thinks their window has closed, but last season they had the most adjusted games lost due to injury ever. At one point, they were without their entire starting secondary for multiple weeks. "And the offense is still very good even though the offensive line isnt what it once was. Chicago and Green Bay are way overrated in the division. "Its a good time to buy low on Detroit." There you have it. Here are three other bets wise guys are eyeing: Tennessee Titans Over/Under 6.5 wins The first win total posted on Tennessee was O/U 6, and it didnt last long. Sharps knocked it to 6.5 almost immediately, and its starting to get expensive at some shops. BetMGM has 6.5 ov-125 and DraftKings is dealing 6.5 ov-140, but if you do your diligence, theres a +105 at FanDuel. Save yourself the 45 cents if youre going to join the betting blitz on Cam Ward and new head coach Robert Saleh. One wise guy bet the Titans to make the playoffs at +325. PICK: Titans (+105) Over 6.5 wins Chicago Bears Under 9.5 wins Bears apologists will say this number is disrespectful after Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson led the team to 11 wins and a postseason victory over the Packers a year ago, but 9.5 is actually high for Chicago. It feels like the franchise has been lined at 8 or 8.5 forever. Its highly unlikely the Bears can duplicate all the comeback victories from last season and a much tougher schedule and natural regression dont help the case, either. PICK: Bears (-115) Under 9.5 wins Carolina Panthers win NFC South "They should not have the longest odds to win the division," my buddy Vegas Rick said over the phone. "It doesnt make any sense." Theres a lot to like about Carolinas progression from a two-win team to a five-win team to an eight-win team over the last three years. If Bryce Young takes another step forward, theres no reason the Panthers cant contend. They have a wide range, with +320, +350, +370 and +425 all available in the market. Make sure you get the best price. PICK: Panthers (+425) to win NFC South
