NFL Week 8 games get underway tonight and it’s time to make those football picks straight-up for your confidence pools and pick em contests. And what a way to start as Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers head north to take on Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. It’s a redemption game for the Bills after last week’s unexpected loss to the New England Patriots, but are they overlooking the Bucs and a stout defense run by head coach Todd Bowles? He may not be Bill Belichick, but he’s pretty good in his own right and has experience facing Allen and Bills head coach Sean McDermott. But that’s just one game here in Week 8 and with no bye weeks, we’ve got a full slate of games. I don’t think we’re at the point in the season where you need to be taking too many chances, but if you’re at the bottom of the standings, maybe you start thinking about some contrarian picks. Let’s see where we’re at.

 

 

In an effort to help you with your pools, I will provide you with my picks each week. In addition to full game breakdowns I do for my own research, I will also use money lines which at least show you how Vegas and the books are leaning. Sometimes the lines offer you a clear-cut decision, but you also need to explore some of the intangibles of each match-up and maybe have more of a gut-feel as to what may happen in a particular game. That’s where ranking your predictions becomes so important.
