Daniel Collins’ (6-1) Week 8 NFL Best Bet
Even on one of the Worst offenses in football, Cam Ward has been slinging it
Cam Ward o199.5 Pass Yards (-115) BetOnline
The Titans might be the worst team in Football and their offense is just as bad. Number 1 pick Cam Ward has been up and down in his rookie season but has not been shy slinging the rock.
Ward has 200+ passing yards in 3 straight games and 4 of his last 5. He also had 219 yards against this same Colts team in Week 3, who are allowing the 3rd most passing yards in the league. In a game where the Titans will no doubt be trailing for long stretches, I expect Cam to move the ball through the air to try and keep up.
Chef T’s (6-1) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Evan Ingram o30.5 receiving yards (-115) BetOnline
Evan Ingram has been cooking steady — 29, 33, 42, 42 yards in his last four, and Dallas is quietly leaking production to tight ends (8th most catches, 13th most yards allowed).
He’s locked in for 6–7 targets again, and 30 yards feels like the floor here. Easy scoop for the Kitchen.
Nate Hornung’s (3-4) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Titans/ Colts Under 48 (-110) BetOnline
If you’ve followed me on X, you’d know I’ve been tracking NFL Divisional Unders all year long. Through 30 divisional matchups, unders are hitting at over 56%, going 17-13 so far this season. In the AFC South specifically, they’ve had two of three games stay under, with the one outlier being the Colts and Titans earlier matchup.
The Titans defense won’t be able to stop Jonathan Taylor. Indianapolis will be able to do whatever they please on the ground, leading me to think they can chew up plenty of clock. Although the Titans put up 20 last time, on the road, it’ll be a lot tougher. Plus, I imagine the Colts will want to buckle down defensively as they try to win the division for the first time in a decade.
Colby Marchio’s (4-3) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Cowboys +3.5 (-110) BetOnline
I love getting Dak Prescott as an underdog almost as much as I love fading the Broncos after that wild comeback win. Denver scored all 33 of their points in the fourth quarter to beat the Giants 33-32, one of the craziest finishes of the season. A game they had no business winning.
This is easily my favorite bet of the week, and yes, I sprinkled on the Boys’ moneyline too.
John Hyslop’s (3-4) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Spencer Rattler will be slingin’ it
Spencer Rattler O225.5 Passing Yards (-115) BetOnline
I know what you’re thinking, “Slop, Spencer Rattler sucks.” I know. Everyone knows that. But here’s the thing, so does the Buccaneers’ pass defense. The last three QBs went for 240+ on them.
Two of those guys went 340+. All we have to do is wait for the Saints to fall behind in this thing, and then the magic starts. Feels free.
Varun Sharma’s (4-3) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Alec Pierce o37.5 Receiving Yards (-110) BetOnline
Last year Pierce averaged 51.5 receiving yards per game and finished with seven touchdowns on the year. He lead the team in touchdowns last year and this year he’s become the Colts’ bonafide WR2. Pierce has played in five of the Colts’ seven games, cleared this line in four of the five. He also leads the team in targets of 20+ yards, despite playing two fewer games.
Tennessee ranks bottom-12 in EPA per play allowed, success rate allowed, QB pressure rate and explosive pass plays allowed. Pierce ranks 3rd in the NFL in yards per reception this year, averaging 19.8 yards per catch. His average depth of target is 21.1 yards and the Titans have allowed a pass play of 29+ yards in six straight games.
This week the Titans will be without L’Jarius Snead and it’ll be Jalyn Armour-Davis taking his place. Armour-Davis ranks 91st in coverage grade this year and is allowing a 75% catch rate,15.9 yards per catch and a passer rating of 114.2 when targeted. Whoever suits up for the Titans, I’m all in on Pierce this week.
Brad Blakemore’s (5-2) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Bijan looks to take advantage of the worst rushing defense in the NFL
Bijan Robinson o131.5 rush + receiving yards (-115) BetOnline
BIJAN was held to only 92 rush + rec against a tough 49ers defense. This week he gets a butter soft Miami defense.
Every time he has had less than 125 rush + rec yards this season he has bounced back. After a season low, I expect dominance against a poor defense at home.
Danny Burke’s (4-2) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Bills Team Total Over 26.5 (-127) BetOnline
Buffalo has lost their last two games, is coming off a bye week and gets to face an incredibly overrated Panthers defense. Carolina is still a weak team, don’t let their win streak against bad teams fool you. Buffalo will come out angry and keep their foot on the pedal for all four quarters
Kate Constable’s (4-3) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Bijan Robinson O87.5 Rushing Yards (-114) BetOnline
Miami’s defense has been about as bad as it gets against the run this season, ranking dead last in the NFL and giving up 159.3 rushing yards per game. That’s a nightmare matchup against an Atlanta offense that leads the league in rushing at 136.3 yards per game. Not to mention Bijan Robinson is having the best season of his young career.
He’s been in peak form lately, piling up 285 yards on 50 carries over his last three games. With the Falcons committed to establishing the ground game and the Dolphins showing zero ability to stop it, Robinson should have every opportunity to blow past this number.
Adam Kaufman’s (5-2) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Baker Mayfield & the Bucs look to take down the Saints
Buccaneers -3.5 (-115) BetOnline
I know the staff prediction articles have been motorboating the books, but tread lightly here.
I’m uncomfortable with how much I like the Bucs, considering Baker Mayfield may as well have me at receiver at this point. Fortunately, Emeka Egbuka is egxactly what the Bucs will need against the Saints’ struggling secondary. Plus, Mayfield won’t see much pressure, so he’ll have time to operate in the pocket or scramble as needed.
The Bucs are 3-1 on the road, stealing multiple wins along the way, but the Saints are 1-3 at home as part of their woeful 1-6 mark.
Spencer Rattler will commit a turnover or two. Tampa Bay has a terrific run-defense that should stifle Alvin Kamara and Taysom Hill.
The NFL’s late window stinks this week, but investing in the Bucs smells kinda nice.
Tristan Vieira’s (6-1) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Texans -1.5 (-110) BetOnline
The 49ers are heading to Houston rolling red hot despite being really banged up on both sides of the ball. They find themselves as underdogs in this match up while the Texans have been struggling offensively.
This line stinks and I’m all over it, the injuries will catch up to San Fran eventually.
Sukh Brar’s (4-3) NFL Week 8 Best Bet
Baker Mayfield o3.5 rushes (-120) BetOnline
No scrambled eggs for this Baker last week. Zero carries. Zero rush yards. In this divisional matchup he’s going to have to escape the pressure of the Saints defensive front. Furthermore, the Saints are giving up this line to opposing QBs like clock work. Little juiced and is assuredly an absolute sweat. Tail with caution.
