NFL Week 1 Top Picks
After analyzing all 16 games in the NFL's opening weekend, Cohen favors the Indianapolis Colts to beat the Houston Texans 29-26 as one of the big upsets at home in Week 1. Indy won three games by three points last season, the most by a team margin of victory, while the Texans went 1-1 last year with two games decided by two points.
The Texans are one of two teams on the road in Week 1, but they haven't had much success against their division rivals recently, winning just two of their past eight meetings. CJ Stroud was sacked eight times in two meetings last year, but the Colts won the game with Anthony Richardson starting. The combination of Richardson and running back Jonathan Taylor will be a formidable matchup for Houston's defense, and the Colts have a defense that ranks fifth in the NFL in sacks in 2023.
