NFL 2018 Week 8 Predictions

Week 8 Predictions

Eagles -3 over Jags, 24-18

-Didn’t think we’d be here with these two teams but...loser goes home? It’d be blinking red light time at least. For this scenario I’ll take Wentz over Bortles thank you.

Ravens -2.5 over Panthers, 20-16

-I trust the Ravens to win tough games. Also, the Panthers explosion in the 4^th Q last week masked an overall not great performance where again their defense seemed old and overrated.

Bears -8 over Jets, 26-13

-Jets are starting to diminish while Bears should take care of business. It’d be nice if Khalil Mack got healthy though.

Bengals -3.5 over Bucs, 33-26

-Bengals are still very much in the hunt while the Bucs aren’t if we are being serious. Bengals D-Line makes a mess of the Bucs O-Line in this contest.

Lions -3 over Seahawks, 27-20

-Lions are getting things right, Seahawks are going the other way. C’mon Stafford, I need production on Matt Ryan’s bye week.

Chiefs -9.5 over Broncos, 37-24

-Broncos need to be selling parts off. Chiefs will continue to roll here.

Washington -1 over Giants, 20-17

-Giants are staying around, but not an exceptionally exciting or well schemed team.

Steelers -7.5 over Browns, 28-20

-I want to take the points and Browns, but I feel like the feel-good run is over and the Browns are going to settle back to like 3-12-1. Steelers are rested off the bye and ready to probably make a run through the second half of the season.

Colts -3 over Raiders, 26-17

-Colts are just a much better team. Raiders are dissolving. Luck’s season stats are starting to look insane.

49ers -1.5 over Cards, 16-13

-Both teams are really bad. One is injured to hell but trying and operating with good schemes, the other is healthy but just look super basic in scheme.

Packers +8.5 over Rams, 30-34

-I have a lot of respect for the Rams. But 8.5 to Aaron Rodgers’? Yeah, I don’t think so. Rams have too many issues in the secondary for that.

Saints -1 over Vikings, 30-27

-Every week the Saints put more of the team together. Vikings winning here would be big for reestablishing some trust. Big games for all the WRs involved though.

Pats -14 over Bills, 30-13

-Pats are going to annihilate this team. I would sit Gronk, no need. Bills couldn’t score on air. I don’t know how to measure this, but I’m pretty sure Allen-Pederman-Anderson is the worst QB situation I’ve ever seen. And I saw Cleveland over the last 6 years and Arizona 2011-2013.
