Here are NFL Week 8 odds along with game breakdowns with a football betting perspective.
The eighth Sunday of the pro football schedule falls on Halloween and sportsbooks have given bettors a treat with NFL Week 8 odds already having been posted. A fabulous NFC game kicks off the week as the Packers will play at the Cardinals. Other key matchups include the Steelers versus the Browns, the Titans versus the Colts, the Patriots versus the Chargers, the Buccaneers versus the Saints and the Cowboys versus the Vikings.
A few teams experienced nightmarish performances and/or endings seven days ahead of the haunted holiday. The most alarming outcome was arguably the Chiefs 27-3 loss to Tennessee, in a game that saw Patrick Mahomes get knocked out of the game with a head injury late. Tennessee notched a second victory over an AFC powerhouse in a span of six days.
The Ravens weren’t left in much better shape than the Chiefs as Baltimore suffered a lopsided 41-17 home loss to the Bengals. Miami somehow found a way to blow yet another late lead and fell to 1-6 with a 30-28 home loss to the Falcons. In the late window, the Rams got quite the scare from the Lions in Jared Goff’s return to LA before emerging with a 28-19 win.
