Week 8 NFL Picks

New England -7 St. Louis (in London)
Pats cover across the pond.
Pick: Pats -7

At Tennessee -3.5 Indianapolis
Titans get to .500 behind another strong effort from Chris Johnson.
Pick: Titans -3.5

At Green Bay -14 Jacksonville
The Packers roll all over the MJD-less Jags in a one-sided beat down. No Jennings, no Jordy, no problem.
Pick: Packers -14

San Diego -2.5 At Cleveland
I want to believe these Browns will put it all together, but I think they’ll have a hard time stopping the Chargers.
Pick: Chargers -2.5

At Philadelphia -3 Atlanta
Atlanta just keeps on winning, but it’s desperation time for the Eagles. Everyone loves Philly in this game so I’m going the other way.
Pick: Falcons +3

At Detroit -2.5 Seattle
Seattle keeps it close as Detroit’s offense continues to sputter.
Pick: Seattle +2.5

At NY Jets -2.5 Miami
The Jets can get to .500 with a win. They’ve been playing tough the last couple weeks. Reggie Bush is going to run angry, but the Jets should squeak by in game dominated by punts and field goals.
Pick: Jets-2.5

At Chicago -7.5 Carolina
Featuring Jonathan Stewart as a primary back is a great idea, but the Panthers aren’t going to right the ship that quickly days after firing their GM. Chicago capitalizes against a team that needs more changes.
Pick: Bears -7.5

At Pittsburgh -4 Washington
Dwyer gets his second straight start and Big Ben gets the word pass defense in the NFL. Yea RG3 is amazing, but Pittsburgh can match offensive strikes.
Pick: Steelers -4.5

At Kansas City -2 Oakland
The Chiefs are 0-3 at home and the Raiders are 0-3 on the road. Something’s gotta give. Quinn’s got a chance to prove himself again, but I see Palmer making more plays.
Pick: Raiders +2

NY Giants -2 At Dallas
Dallas beat ‘em before, but Eli loves putting up big numbers in Big D.
Pick: Giants -2

At Denver -6.6 New Orleans
Shoot out city. I like the Saints to keep pace.
Saints +6.5

San Francisco -6.5 At Arizona
Big divisional battle. Two great defenses. Edge has to go to San Francisco.
Pick: 49ers -6.5
