SEATTLE SEAHAWKS AT BUFFALO BILLS
Sunday November 8 – 13:00 ET – Bills Stadium
The Buffalo Bills were a little fortunate to have pulled off the victory against the New England Patriots last week, but good teams find a way to win games. Despite their impressive 6-2 record, they find themselves as underdogs against the 6-1 Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
Seattle took down the San Francisco 49ers in a high-scoring affair last week. They will be in tough against the Bills but should have no issues putting points up against their struggling defense. They have put up at least 30 points in six of the seven games they’ve played thus far and will likely reach that figure again in Buffalo.
This will be a tough game to call as both teams have enough quality to embarrass their opponents on the right day. The overlooks like the play in this one though, as Josh Allen and Russel Wilson could put on a show for fans and neutrals alike.

ODDS: Seattle (-3)
Over/Under: 54.5
HOUSTON TEXANS AT JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS
Sunday November 8 – 13:00 ET – TIAA Stadium
The Houston Texans might be the most disappointing team in the entire NFL after nearly reaching the AFC Conference final last season. They have been better since firing their head coach and general manager Bill O’Brien a few weeks ago, but still have just one win on the season.
Houston’s one win comes against the Jaguars though, as they took them down in Texas 30-14 back on October 11th. However, they have lost two straight games since then.
Even though Houston hasn’t been very good, they still should be able to cover the seven-points they are favoured against a Jacksonville side who hasn’t even been able to keep games close. They have lost their last three games by 10 points or more and that will likely be the case again on Sunday against the Texans. Don’t be surprised to see the game go over the total of 50 points as well.

NEW YORK GIANTS AT WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM
Sunday November 8 – 13:00 ET – FedEx Field
The New York Giants are coming off a short week after falling in disappointing fashion to Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday evening.
They come into Washington as three-point underdogs but will like their chances of picking up their second win of the season against a team with just two wins themselves. They did come up big against the Dallas Cowboys last week in a 25-3 victory but that was their first victory since week one of the season.
The Giants have managed to keep games close even when they haven’t won them and should be able to pull off their second win of the season against Washington. Washington is the only team that New York has beaten this year and they should be able to get the job done once again. The total is also set quite low at 42, but the under is still worth wagering on as both sides rely on their defense.
PICKS: New York Giants

ODDS: Washington (-3)
Over/Under: 42
MIAMI DOLPHINS AT ARIZONA CARDINALS
Sunday November 8 – 16:25 ET – State Farm Stadium
The Miami Dolphins didn’t have the highest of expectations coming into the campaign but are now making a serious push for the AFC East title. While the Buffalo Bills remain atop the division, Miami certainly has them in their sights and could close the gap with a big win against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.
Arizona will be well rested coming off a bye week heading into their contest against Miami. They have won their last two consecutive victories including against the Seattle Seahawks and will be up for the challenge presented by the Dolphins.
Even if Miami doesn’t pull off the victory in Arizona, they should keep the game close. Their defense has been phenomenal early in the season and they will be hoping that stellar play will continue Sunday. Take Miami to cover the points at -4.5 but stay away from the rather unpredictable total set 47.5.
PICKS: Miami
ODDS: Miami (-4.5)
Over/Under: 47.5
PITTSBURGH STEELERS AT DALLAS COWBOYS
Sunday November 8 – 16:25 ET – AT&T Stadium
Heading into week nine of the NFL season, the Pittsburgh Steelers remain the league’s only undefeated team after an impressive victory last week against the Baltimore Ravens in week eight. They have now beaten Baltimore and the Tennessee Titans in consecutive weeks to cement their place as a legitimate contender in the AFC.
Dallas’ nightmare season only got worse last week when they were obliterated by the woeful Washington Football Club. The Cowboys now sit with just two wins and six losses after eight games and that record will not be improving this weekend when they take on one of the best teams in the entire league.
Washington easily handled the Cowboys defense last week and expect much of the same from Pittsburgh on Sunday when they visit Dallas. This game could get ugly quickly with the Steelers looking to end it before it even really starts. Take Pittsburgh to cover the points, but stick to the under as Dallas won’t be putting up very much points.
PICKS: Pittsburgh

ODDS: Pittsburgh (-13.5)
Over/Under: 41.5
