Week 8 NFL Score Predictions
Every week, I'll release a prediction for every game in the NFL. Here's how I see things going down in Week 8.
WEEK 4 PICKS: 5-8.
SEASON PICKS: 55-48.
Buccaneers at Bills
The Bills are reeling and desperately need a win. I have a hard time seeing the Bills drop two consecutive home games, so I'll side with Buffalo in a game they must have.
Prediction: Bills 23, Buccaneers 20.
Texans at Panthers
It's time to get a little crazy. Give me Carolina.
Prediction: Panthers. Score prediction will be released tomorrow.
Patriots at Dolphins
New England used up all of their good luck a week ago against Buffalo. No chance they pull off two stunners in a row.
Prediction: Dolphins 34, Patriots 24.
Jets at Giants
The Giants have had all sorts of issues on offense this season and it'll really show this Sunday against a stingy Jets defense.
Prediction: Jets 17, Giants 13.
Jaguars at Steelers
The Jags are cruising along but I'm going with the Steelers because, well, T.J. Watt.
Prediction: Steelers 24, Jaguars 16.
Falcons at Titans
Tennessee is rumored to be shopping De'Andre Hopkins, Derrick Henry, and potentially others. I don't believe in the Falcons whatsoever, but it's hard to side with a stagnant Titans offense.
Prediction: Falcons 20, Titans 17.
Rams at Cowboys
In their four wins this season, Dallas has allowed just 7.5 points per game. They haven't lost a home game since the season opener last year. That's not changing this week.
Prediction: Cowboys 28, Rams 11.
Vikings at Packers
Minnesota has a chance to rip off a bunch of wins over the course of the next month and a half or so. It starts this week in Green Bay. If they can win this one, watch out. I'll give them the W on a game-winning field goal.
Prediction: Vikings 24, Packers 21.
Saints at Colts
Derek Carr has thrown for 654 yards over the last two weeks but the Saints just haven't been able to find the end zone. This week, they find some answers and get the win on the road.
Prediction: Saints 29, Colts 27.
Eagles at Commanders
Philly had an impressive win last week over Miami, proving they are still one of the best teams in the NFL. Not expecting them to trip up and lay an egg in D.C. this week.
Prediction: Eagles 30, Commanders 14.
Browns at Seahawks
The PJ Walker story has been cool and all but that comes to an end in Seattle. The Seahawks win this game with ease.
Prediction: Seahawks 37, Browns 17.
Ravens at Cardinals
As bad as the Cardinals are, they aren't getting blown out. They'll "hang around" if you want to call it that but Baltimore will be in control the entire way.
Prediction: Ravens 20, Cardinals 10.
Chiefs at Broncos
Kansas City gets caught looking ahead but survives on the road.
Prediction: Chiefs 30, Broncos 20.
Bengals at 49ers
Sam Darnold fills in this week for the injured Brock Purdy and even though he has a ton of help around him, I can't see him outdueling Joe Burrow.
Prediction: Bengals 28, 49ers 19.
Bears at Chargers
With the schedule the Bolts have waiting for them, they need a win in the worst of ways. If they drop to 2-5, Brandon Staley be out of a job by mid-November.
Prediction: Chargers 27, Bears 23.
Raiders at Lions
Detroit got embarrassed by Baltimore last week but that's not nearly as bad as Vegas losing to the Bears who started an undrafted free agent rookie.
Prediction: Lions 34, Raiders 17.
