The NFL season is right around the corner, as the season is set to kick off next week with Texans vs. Chiefs on Thursday night. It might not feel that way with no preseason to dissect, and with the NBA and NHL still in the midst of their delayed postseasons, but football is almost upon us. So it's time to delve into our predictions for the 2020 NFL season, starting with each team's win total.
Each year, sportsbooks place a number on the expected win total of each NFL team and allow bettors to decide whether a team will go over or under that total. We asked our staffers to make up to three best bets using the odds provided by William Hill Sportsbook, and the results were pretty interesting. You can see every pick in our team-by-team look below, but here are a few highlights.

The Cowboys were our most popular consensus pick, with four staffers taking them to go Over 9.5 wins despite the heavily-juiced price of -145 (meaning you have to bet $145 in order to win $100). "The Cowboys stumbled often in 2019 and still finished with eight wins," said longtime Cowboys reporter Patrik Walker. "They've now swapped Jason Garrett for Mike McCarthy and added CeeDee Lamb to the league's best offense while going all out on rebuilding the pass rush with big-name talent."
The Broncos had the most picks in all with six staffers putting them in their best bets, but the fascinating wrinkle is that three took the Over on 7.5 wins at -115, and three others took the Under at -105. "Drew Lock went 4-1 as a starter last year; you don't think this team can win just one more game in 2020?" one writer said. "I could not pick this Broncos Under fast enough," responded another. You can see their full responses below.
