Summary
SportsLine AI’s top disclosed 2026 NFL Week 1 pick is Baltimore -3.5, projecting a 29-16 Ravens win over Indianapolis and assigning the spread an A+ rating.
The model ties that edge partly to Lamar Jackson’s return to full health after a 13-game season in which he threw for 2,549 yards, 21 touchdowns and seven interceptions.
SportsLine said it generated spread, moneyline and over-under picks for every Week 1 game, using a fully automated system that updates with recent data and matchup scores out of 100.
Week 1 opens Sept. 9 with Patriots-Seahawks, a Super Bowl LX rematch, and runs through Broncos-Chiefs on Monday, with larger Sunday spreads including Chargers -9.5, Jaguars -8.5 and Lions -7.
