Playing the Englund Gambit will get you nowhere.
The following are all sound and which is best differs for everyone depending on stylistic factor:
Queen's Gambit Accepted
Queen's Gambit Declined
Slav Defense
Semi-Slav Defense
King's Indian Defense
Nimzo-Indian Defense
Grunfeld Defense
Dutch Defense w/e6 (Stonewall & Classical)
