Buffalo Bills @ New York Jets (+13) - The Jets defense has been horrendous but perhaps they can keep it close against a Bills team that just lost to the Jaguars.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-9.5) @ Washington Football Team - These teams played last time in the playoffs and Taylor Heinikie lead a valiant effort against the Bucs. Now, there is talk that Heinikie could get benched for Kyle Allen- maybe his play has suffered since getting sponsored by Bud Light. Either way, Washington's defense has been inconsistent which could make it tough for Washington to keep pace.
Atlanta Falcons (+9.5) @ Dallas Cowboys - The Falcons have been better lately even without Calvin Ridley. Patterson has been one of the most consistent running backs this season. Dak Presscot looked a bit rusty coming off his injury but could have a better performance.
New Orleans Saints @ Tennessee Titans (-3) - The Saints usually bounce back from bad performances. That being said, the Saints are now without Alvin Kamara not to mention Jameis Winston and the Titans' defense has been on fire the last few weeks.
Jacksonville Jaguars (+10.5) @ Indianapolis Colts - The Jaguars only held the Bills to two field goals last week. James Robinson also makes his return. The Colts are coming off a big win against the Jets, so the Jaguars defense who contained the Bills, will have their hands full.
Detroit Lions (+9) @ Pittsburgh Steelers - With Big Ben out, there is a road map for the Lions to get their first win of the season. Of course, Jared Goff could derail those plans.
Cleveland Browns (+1) @ New England Patriots - The Browns defense kept the Bengals in check thanks to Denzel Ward's 100 yard interception return. Theoretically the Browns defense can slow down Mac Jones although the Browns will be without Chubb due to Covid.
Minnesota Vikings @ Los Angeles Chargers (-2.5) - Kirk Cousins had a deja vu performance of not coming through in the clutch after the Vikings took a big lead and Cousins also failed to lead the Vikings to a game winning field goal in Overtime. The Chargers are on of the worst rushing defenses. Still, the Chargers offense has been good and they should not be complacent as they have to keep pace in the tough AFC West.
Carolina Panthers (+10) @ Arizona Cardinals - The Cardinals look to see if they can keep their momentum going without both Kyler Murray and Chase Edmonds The Panthers did sign Cam Newton. The Cardinals did have to rely on trick plays against the 49ers. The Panthers young defense should do a better job containing the Cardinals than the 49ers last week.
Philadelphia Eagles @ Denver Broncos (-2.5) - The Broncos defense has been legit and looks to continue its domination of the NFC East. The Eagles have yet to register a win against the AFC West.
Seattle Seahawks (+4) @ Green Bay Packers - Aaron Rodgers returns from the Covid protocol but so does Russell Wilson.
Kansas City Chiefs (-2.5) @ Las Vegas Raiders - The Chiefs defense found it's stride last week against the Packers. However, their offense sputtered again for the 2nd consecutive week but perhaps they can finally get it together against the Raiders who have been up and down all year, including last weeks' loss to the Giants.
Los Angeles Rams (-4) @ San Francisco 49ers - The 49ers do a good job slowing down Cooper Kupp and while gaining OBJ did lose Robert Woods for the season. George Kittle made his return but look a little bit sloppy. The 49ers defense struggled giving up long 3d down conversions on screen passes and roughing the pass penalties. The Rams look to continue the trend of AFC West opponents beating the 49ers on the road.
Week 9 against the Spread - 6-7
Week 9 Straight Up- 7-6
