Week 8
Rules: simply pick the winner of each game listed. No score required (though a little added commentary on your picks won't be discouraged). You must make your picks before the first game of the week (usually Thursday Night Football) to be eligible for all the games. If you miss Thursday, you can still make picks for Saturday/Sunday games. If you haven't picked the Sunday games by the start of the first game (1pm EST), your Sunday picks won't count.
If I've liked your post, consider your picks logged and recorded. So if you want to change them, best tell me in another post.

Minnesota is on a roll, and they get Washington. Even on a short week there is no excuse for losing here. Coin toss for the Titans. New Orleans slaughters the red birds. I could totally see the Rams barfing up the win to the Bungles but I will play it safe. Jets in a minor upset over the Jags. Colts have better everything and they are at home. Giants in an upset over the Lions. Chicago has crap offense and good defense. That should be enough to get by the Chargers who have crap everything!
Buffalo defense tears up the Iggles. Seattle destroys the Falcons who are in free fall. I will take the Niners to continue rolling but Carolina might keep it close. Patriots have to lose sometimes this season........right??? Probably not this week. Houston in a close game against Oakland.
Big game of the week! Hoping the referees fuck off in the GB/KC game and let the guys play! I will take KC at home in a close one. Jesus Christ NFL!!! Monday looks like another drizzling shits of a game! I will take Pittsburgh. Miami taking the dive all the way to the off season!

My confidence is a little shaken after being soundly out-picked by Mrs. sdm, who chooses winners based on little more than which logos she likes more. Still...
Washington @ Minnesota - Hey, it's the Case Keenum returns game! I'm sure we all remember what happened the last time Keenum played at US Bank Stadium. We'll be hearing about the Minneapolis Miracle a lot during the pregame show (if anyone's going to watch that). Well it'll take a similar miracle for the Redskins to win here. VIKINGS win obviously.
Tampa Bay @ Tennessee - The Titans just won, therefore they'll lose this week. BUCCANEERS come out firing and win.
Arizona @ New Orleans - I'm done picking against the SAINTS. (now watch them lose as a result of this comment)
Cincinnati @ LA Rams - Did you know that Bengals coach Zac Taylor was Jared Goff's QB coach last season? That essentially means he sat next to him on the bench, holding one of Sean McVay's clipboards. RAMS win.
NY Jets @ Jacksonville - I'm not worried by the Jets and their disastrous performance last night. The Pats have been making a LOT of QBs look atrocious this season. JETS bounce back and win in Duval.
Denver @ Indianapolis - Not picking against the COLTS anymore this season. They dropped a weird one to the Raiders the other week, but Darius Leonard is back now and the Colts are rolling with confidence. Want to sell out stopping the run and force Brissett to throw it? Uh oh, he can.
NY Giants @ Detroit - Eh, LIONS I guess.
LA Chargers @ Chicago - I'm expecting the BEARS to show what I expected them to show last week. Chargers seem done to me.
Philadelphia @ Buffalo - BILLS and their tough defense punishes Wentz and Josh Allen has a big game!! Bills go 6-1 and TheGoodMan begins to feel... hope.
Seattle @ Atlanta - Ryan might not even play. Enter Matt Schaub. Sucks for my fantasy team and sucks for the Falcons. Plus the SEAHAWKS just lost and it's hard to see them losing twice in a row.
Carolina @ San Francisco - McCaffrey gets tested. The Bucs showed that McAffrey can be limited. The 49ERS have a stout defense and will win to remain undefeated, yet still get no respect by people who've never heard of Kyle Allen.
Cleveland @ New England - Much like my Titans/Chargers premonition last week, another vision has seared itself into my mind; a single thought appearing suddenly and unprompted, clear as daylight. I'm not sure where these prophecies are coming from, but I can't ignore them. In this case, it says... "I GUARANTEE (BoSoxRules style) the PATRIOTS win this game."
Oakland @ Houston - Look for Josh Jacobs and the RAIDERS to come in and stun the Texans in Houston at a time when citizens are still reeling from being STUNNED by the Nats!
Green Bay @ Kansas City - Oh, it's Matt Moore. PACKERS win and they ought to be very worried if they don't.
Miami @ Pittsburgh - A team that's quickly lost its biggest talents, and the Dolphins. Hmm, I think I'll take the STEELERS.

Is it me or are games featuring the Chargers and/or Titans the most impossible to pick? You never know what you’re gonna get from either of them. At least I never do.

I was injured to start the season but now I'm back up to 100% Full disclosure about last Thursday: my brain said Denver's winning recently, they're at home and Mahomes is banged up going in but my gut said pick KC. Luckily I went with my gut for the rest of my picks. Thursday October 24th 8:20pm EST @ Minnesota

That's what happens with mediocre .500 teams. It's fucking red light, green light, all season and trying to find a rhythm with that kind of win/losing is frustrating!

Here are my picks for Week 8’s games
Vikings over Redskins - Vikings are hot and are much stronger on both sides of the ball.
Titans over Buccaneers - Difficult pick but I’ll take the Titans because their defense is better.
Saints over Cardinals - Saints are a very complete team and have a lot more talent than the Cards.
Rams over Bengals - Rams have a far more talented team, the Bengals are lifeless.
Jaguars over Jets - Jags are better, I expect Fournette and Minshew to have big games.
Colts over Broncos - Colts are far more talented and will outscore the lousy Broncos offense.
Lions over Giants - Lions have a much better defense and a stronger team, they get the win.
Chargers over Bears - I’ll go with an upset here, I don’t trust the Bears and Rivers is much better than Trubisky, I’ll take the Chargers.
Bills over Eagles - I think the Bills are a more complete team and I’ll take them to get the win in a close game.
Seahawks over Falcons - Seahawks are much better, Falcons are a disaster.
49ers over Panthers - Niners defense will slow down the Panthers offense and the Niners make enough offensive plays to get the win.
Patriots over Browns - Pats defense will shut down the Browns and the Browns defense won’t be able to handle Brady and the Pats offense.
Texans over Raiders - Texans are a more complete team and they will bounce back and get the win.
Packers over Chiefs - Chiefs are without Mahomes, Packers have Rodgers so the Packers win.
Steelers over Dolphins - Steelers are much better, Dolphins don’t even look like they are trying to win.

8:20pm EST
Washington @ Minnesota
- Vikes are hot right now and Washington is a mess.
Sunday October 27th
1:00pm
Tampa Bay @ Tennessee
- I guess?
Arizona @ New Orleans
- Saints continue to roll.
Cincinnati @ LA Rams
- Bengals are a dumpster fire.
NY Jets @ Jacksonville
- Ghosts, ghosts everywhere for Darnold.
Denver @ Indianapolis
- Colts are better plain and simple.
NY Giants @ Detroit
- Lions rebound.
LA Chargers @ Chicago
- I guess Nagy just doesn't run the ball so if the biscuit is gonna be throwing 50 times I'll give them the L even against the Chargers who are snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Philadelphia @ Buffalo
- Wentz and the Eagles are struggling and now they face a tough defense @buffalo? I think Josh Allen has a big game too.
Seattle @ Atlanta
- Should be a no brainer.
4:05pm
Carolina @ San Francisco
- Head says SF but gut says Carolina.
4:25pm
Cleveland @ New England
- Ugh
Oakland @ Houston
- Should be a decent enough game but Houston is easily better.
8:20pm
Green Bay @ Kansas City
- Packers offense seems to be firing on all cylinders and get a Mahomes-less KC team.
Monday October 28th
8:15pm
Miami @ Pittsburgh
- The 0-for continues
