READ MORE: 2023 NFL Week 8 Sleeper Picks
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Buffalo Bills
- When: Thursday, October 26th, 2023. 8:15pm EST.
- Where: Highmark Stadium, Orchard Park, NY
- NFL Odds: Buccaneers (+8.5) // Bills (-8.5)
Both teams have something to prove. Tampa heads to Buffalo after a disappointing 16-13 loss to Atlanta. The Bills fell to their top rivals, the New England Patriots. Buffalo should win, but right now, the Bills are a bad bet to cover a -4 spread against Tampa, much less -8.5.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Atlanta Falcons vs. Tennessee Titans
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Nissan Stadium, Nashville, TN
- NFL Odds: Falcons (-3) // Titans (+3)
Ryan Tannehill lists as questionable. If Tannehill can’t play, the Atlanta Falcons have the edge. However, the ATL should bounce after beating Tampa in NFL Week 7 and securing the top spot in the NFC South. Also, Desmond Ridder is a different QB on the road.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Atlanta Falcons
Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Lambeau Field, Green Bay, WI
- NFL Odds: Vikings (-3) // Packers (+3)
After struggling early in the season, the Vikings have turned the page, winning 3-of-4. The loss in the last 4 games came versus the Chiefs. The best win came against the 49ers this past Monday night. Vikings are the play to cover.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Minnesota Vikings
Houston Texans vs. Carolina Panthers
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Bank of America Stadium, Charlotte, NC
- NFL Odds: Texans (-3) // Panthers (+3)
In a battle between the top two picks in the NFL Draft, Carolina’s Bryce Young and Houston’s C.J. Stroud, C.J. has the edge. The Texans boast a better defense and a much better offensive line. Houston beats the Panthers by more than 3.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Houston Texans
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Acrisure Stadium, Pittsburgh, PA
- NFL Odds: Jaguars (-2.5) // Steelers (+2.5)
Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars are rolling. But the Steelers are also playing great football. Which team has the edge? Jacksonville plastered 31 onto the Saints’ defense on the road in their last. Lawrence and the Jags keep it going.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Jacksonville Jaguars
New Orleans Saints vs. Indianapolis Colts
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis, IN
- NFL Odds: Saints (+1.5) // Colts (-1.5)
One team is finding ways to lose, the Saints, while the other is playing well enough to win, but falling short, the Colts. The team that finds ways to lose will eventually get it together. Saints cover.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: New Orleans Saints
Los Angeles Rams vs. Dallas Cowboys
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: AT&T Stadium, Arlington, TX
- NFL Odds: Rams (+6.5) // Cowboys (-6.5)
Losing Kyren Williams is a massive blow to the Rams’ playoff hopes. Los Angeles will struggle to keep Dallas’ pass rush away from Matthew Stafford. But giving up 6.5 points is asking a lot. So going Rams makes sense.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Los Angeles Rams
New York Jets vs. New York Giants
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ
- NFL Odds: Jets (-3) // Giants (+3)
Sure, the Giants looked great beating Washington 14-7 in their last. But taking down the Commanders and then beating the Jets’ defense are 2 very different things.
J-E-T-S quarterback Zach Wilson beat the Philadelphia Eagles defense a couple of weeks ago and the Jets take on the Giants after a bye.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: New York Jets
Philadelphia Eagles vs. Washington Commanders
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ
- NFL Odds: Eagles (-6.5) // Commanders (+6.5)
In the first matchup this season, Washington pushed Philadelphia to overtime. That game feels like it happened in 2022. Washington has gotten worse while the Eagles have hit their stride.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Philadelphia Eagles
New England Patriots vs. Miami Dolphins
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 1:00pm EST.
- Where: Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, FL
- NFL Odds: Patriots (+9.5) // Dolphins (-6.5)
In the victory over the Buffalo Bills, the New England Patriots may have turned their season around. Mac Jones played great, completing 83.3% of his passes, throwing for 272 yards, and tossing a couple of TDs. The Pats easily cover this overlay number.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: New England Patriots
Cleveland Browns vs. Seattle Seahawks
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 4:05pm EST.
- Where: Lumen Field, Seattle, WA
- NFL Odds: Browns (+3.5) // Seahawks (-3.5)
Cleveland’s victory over the Indianapolis Colts was a tale of two halves. Myles Garrett dominated the first half. But the Colts’ offense exploded in the second half. The Browns were lucky to escape with a victory. Seattle should have no trouble covering this spread.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Seattle Seahawks
Cincinnati Bengals vs. San Francisco 49ers
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 4:25pm EST.
- Where: Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, CA
- NFL Odds: Bengals (+5.5) // 49ers (-5.5)
This is a key game for San Francisco. The vaunted 49ers defense allowed Kirk Cousins to carve them up. Brock Purdy didn’t play great, but the Niners defense is the reason SF lost to Minnesota. 5.5 points are too many to give to the Bengals.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Cincinnati Bengals
Chicago Bears vs. L.A. Chargers
- When: Sunday, October 29th, 2023. 8:25pm EST.
- Where: SoFi Stadium, Inglewood, CA
- NFL Odds: Bears (+8.5) // Chargers (-8.5)
This is a key game for San Francisco. The vaunted 49ers defense allowed Kirk Cousins to carve them up. Brock Purdy didn’t play great, but the Niners defense is the reason SF lost to Minnesota. 5.5 points are too many to give to the Bengals.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Chicago Bears
Las Vegas Raiders vs. Detroit Lions
- When: Monday, October 30th, 2023. 8:15pm EST.
- Where: Ford Field, Detroit, MI
- NFL Odds: Raiders (+8.5) // Lions (-8.5)
Baltimore brought Detroit back down to earth. Sometimes, teams require a butt whipping as a reminder that they must always strive to improve. On Monday, Detroit shows why they remain a legit Super Bowl contender. The Raiders are just bad. So the Lions win by 10 or more.
2023 NFL Week 8 Pick: Detroit Lions
