Week 2 NFL picks, predictions, best bets from Vegas expert: This 3-team football parlay would pay nearly 6-1

The Dallas Cowboys have the opportunity to start their season 2-0, so many fans and bettors will be deciding whether to include “America’s Team” in their Week 2 NFL picks. Dak Prescott and company are confident after making quick work of Deshaun Watson and the Cleveland Browns in a 33-17 road win last Sunday. Week 2 won’t be a cake walk, however, with the incoming New Orleans Saints coming off a decisive 47-10 win against the Carolina Panthers. These NFC opponents have traded off wins in recent years, although they haven’t faced each other since a 27-17 Cowboys win in 2021. They are now six-point favorites to repeat that success in the Week 2 NFL odds. Before you make any Week 2 NFL picks or NFL parlays, be sure to see what SportsLine senior analyst Larry Hartstein has to say.

A former lead writer for Covers and The Linemakers, Hartstein combines a vast network of Vegas sources with an analytical approach he honed working for Pro Football Focus. Hartstein tied for 52nd place (out of 1,598 entries) in the 2022 Westgate Las Vegas SuperContest, going 53-34-3 ATS. His weekly Vegas contest selections form the basis of his NFL best bets column, which is 81-49-2 (62.3%, +26.85 units) since its inception in 2022. He went 2-1 last week. Anyone who has followed him is way up.

For Week 2, Hartstein has locked in three confident best bets. If you successfully parlay his picks, you’re looking at a payout of almost 6-1. You can only see Hartstein’s Week 2 NFL picks at SportsLine.

New England should be a confident bunch heading into their first home game of the season after upsetting Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals 16-10 in Week 1.
