2026 NFL Implied Totals: Week 1

Updated: Friday, September 11 at 9:33 PM ET.

While nobody is right 100% of the time, the Vegas sportsbooks are right more often than they are wrong.

A helpful tool to determine which players to roster or start (or at least to break a tie), especially in daily fantasy football leagues, is NFL implied totals (projected point totals for each team based on NFL odds).

Looking at the over-under alone is not enough. Although it's an obvious statement, the more points a team scores (or is expected to score), the more likely that fantasy points will follow.

NFL implied totals listed in the table below are calculated using NFL odds from FanDuel Sportsbook for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season and sorted from most to least projected points.
