It doesn’t happen too often, at least in recent years, that the Washington Commanders enter a game as the overwhelming favorite. On Sunday, Washington is a 7-point favorite for their Week 1 game against the Arizona Cardinals.
The Commanders are the second-biggest favorite for Week 1, behind the Baltimore Ravens, who are 9.5-point favorites over the Houston Texans, according to BetMGM.

Per NFLPickwatch, 100% of the experts who picked Week 1 games picked the Commanders. The next closest overwhelming favorite is the Ravens [99%] over the Texans.
