1. Prisco’s Week 1 picks: Chiefs, Packers prevail

USATSI

Can you believe it? Actual NFL picks are back! Pete Prisco has projected every single matchup of Week 1, and he’s got a few contenders starting the 2024 campaign with a bang. Here’s a sampling:

Chiefs 24, Ravens 18: This rematch of the AFC Championship game will feature two of the best in the NFL. Lamar Jackson is playing behind a rebuilt offensive line, which could be a problem early in the season against a team that loves to blitz. The Chiefs will be better this year on offense than a year ago.Packers 33, Eagles 28: The Packers found out Jordan Love could be their guy last season, and I think that will continue here. The Eagles have shored up their secondary, but they were terrible against the pass last year. Love has a big night and the attacking new-look defense of the Packers plays well.Jaguars 34, Dolphins 31: This will be a high-scoring game. Miami is fast, which will cause problems for the Jacksonville secondary. But the Jaguars will also score against a Miami pass rush that is missing key players. The Jaguars will win it late with a field goal.

2. Expert picks: Best division, Super Bowl teams
