Default NFL Week 8

After a 2-0 NFL record last week (Yea Jets/Falcons) A look at some potential interesting matchups for week 8. All three are road teams (but all are dogs, something rare)

NYJ +1.5 at Cleveland.

I guessed yesterday that this game would be a pick em, and it essentially is... but I like the Jets here. If you look at the Jets schedule, although they aren't a great team, they easily have potnetial to go 10-6 and make th epost season bc of strength of schedule... it's a big game going into their bye week as well (a win makes them 5-3 and winners of 3 straight). The Road doesn't seem to matter , as the Jets won in Buffalo and Tennessee earlier this year, both teams which I think closely resemble The Browns skill level. Oh yea, as a last thing IT'S CLEVELAND

Indianapolis +2.5 at Denver.


This is a very interesting matchup. Denver's D has been stellar, but could ANY D really hold the Colts to under 14 points? If you ignore that crazy game against Tennessee, the Colts havent been held that low all year, and the Broncos haven't scored over 17 points all season. Getting this spread at + FG and a hook for the Colts seems like a stellar bet.

St. Louis +9 at SD

The Rams are a decent team with a lot of +'s in there arsenal. The Chargers have seen mental collapses at times in their defense. I think 9 points is too many to lay here and pick the Rams by cover.

These are are early week looks and I will not be completing any bet for several days -- jus a look into potentials
