Kristopher Knox urged bettors to lay the 7.5 with Denver when Tennessee comes to town. Titans rookie quarterback Cam Ward makes his first NFL start on the road against a Broncos defense that ranked seventh in total yardage and third in points allowed in 2024. Knox expects Sean Payton and Vance Joseph to throw confusing looks that create turnovers, giving Bo Nix and the Broncos offense short fields against a Titans unit that surrendered the league's third-most points a year ago. He predicts the game could be tight early, but Denver's defensive advantage will allow it to pull away late and cover.

Kristopher Knox recommended taking Cincinnati -5.5 in Week 1, pointing out that the Bengals covered at least a touchdown in both meetings with Cleveland last season. While the Browns' defense traditionally bothers Joe Burrow and new starter Joe Flacco is an upgrade from last year's quarterback carousel, Knox believes Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins headline a passing attack that is 'virtually impossible to contain.' Cincinnati played its starters extensively in the preseason to avoid its usual slow September starts, and Knox expects that extra prep to minimize mistakes and stave off any Week 1 upset bid.

Kristopher Knox advised laying the 7 points with Philadelphia in the 2025 opener. He argued Dallas' defense—already 28th last year—will be even weaker after trading away Micah Parsons, the engine of its pass rush. Knox expects the Eagles' home crowd on their banner-raising night and a balanced offense led by Saquon Barkley to overwhelm a Cowboys attack that is likely to be one-dimensional. He reminded bettors that Philadelphia outscored Dallas 75-13 across two meetings in 2024 and sees no reason the margin should shrink with the Eagles at home.

Kristopher Knox described Scottie Scheffler as a key contender for the 2025 Masters, despite Scheffler not recording any tour wins thus far in 2025. Knox emphasized Scheffler's recent Masters dominance, winning two of the last three (2022 and 2024) events, noting that no player has captured consecutive titles at Augusta since Tiger Woods (2021 and 2022). Knox believes Scheffler's unprecedented success at Augusta and current status as World No. 1 remain powerful factors in favoring him this week. Although he is still without wins in 2025, Knox insists it would be no surprise if Scheffler repeats, highlighting his consistency and elite skill at Augusta National.
