Jaguars to pull small upset vs. East-traveling Raiders
The NFL's Week 8 was bountiful for me!
I had a great week in DFS, and it was sizzling with my picks in my Forecast.
I finished with 195.34 points with my cash lineup in DFS, and I had an 11-3 record with my picks last week. My Survivor picks were flawless with a 3-0 week, and my Best Bets were a D.J. Moore late game TD away from Atlanta covering the 4-point spread and finishing with a 4-1 week.
As crazy this NFL season has been I’ll take a winning week in my Best Bets.
Onto this week’s games!
(Odds are based on DraftKings lines)
Miami at Chicago (Dolphins -4.5, 46.5 over/under): The Dolphins are getting healthier in their defensive backfield, but the Bears still keep this close. Dolphins, 27-24
Buffalo at NY Jets (Bills -11, 46): I have a sneaky suspicion that this game goes under. Bills, 24-13
Minnesota at Washington (Vikings -3, 43.5): One would expect Justin Jefferson would have a big day for the Vikings, but the low over/under has me concerned. Vikings, 23-17
Carolina at Cincinnati (Bengals -7.5, 42.5): Another game with an unexpectedly over/under. Bengals, 23-13
LA Chargers at Atlanta (Chargers -3, 49.5): The Falcons offense needs to be its efficient self because their defense won’t stop a depleted Chargers offense. Chargers, 33-20
Green Bay at Detroit (Packers -3, 49.5): A get right game for Aaron Rodgers. Packers, 37-24
Indianapolis at New England (Patriots -5.5, 40): A quarterback making his second career start vs. a Bill Belichick team – easy choice. Patriots, 23-10
Las Vegas at Jacksonville (Raiders -2.5, 48): I think the oddsmakers forgot the Raiders are the worst of the West Coast team to play in 1 p.m. games in recent years. Jaguars, 27-24
Seattle at Arizona (Cardinals -2, 49): I think this will be competitive high-scoring game compared to the matchup from a few weeks ago. Seahawks, 31-30
LA Rams at Tampa Bay (Buccaneers -3, 42.5): This game has ugly written all over it, and it is our national 4 p.m. game. Buccaneers, 23-17
Tennessee at Kansas City (Chiefs -12.5, 45.5): Another ugly game on paper. Chiefs, 27-17
Baltimore at New Orleans (Ravens -2, 47): Expect some offensive fireworks to save the NFL from the Rams-Bucs and Titans-Chiefs debacles. Ravens, 32-27
