Greg's 2022 NFL Picks: Week 8

 Another great week for me as I go 7-3 against the spread and 9-5 in the victory column (including Thursday night) That brings my total to:


Points: 41-34

Victory: 66-51


I have also hit upon my upset picks this year, going 5-2 in that regard. Let's see if that continues.

Broncos @ Jaguars (-2.5) YE OLDE PICK'EM! London gets the football it always gets. Give me Jacksonville.

Victory: Jaguars


Patriots (-2.5) @ Jets: PICK'EM #2! I see another close low scoring game as the defenses step up. In this case, I think the Pats are the more desperate team so I'm going to go with them, but again, it could be anybody's game

Victory: Pats


Steelers @ Eagles (-10.5): I'm going to take a flier on this one. I think the Steelers will play them close and I think the Eagles are due for a down performance. I think the Eagles win, but I think the Steelers will keep it under the number.

Points: Steelers    Victory: Eagles


Bears @ Cowboys (-9.5): I don't know if the Bears can keep up their momentum from MNF. I think Cowboys grind them down and eventually cover

Points: Cowboys   Victory: Cowboys


Dolphins (-3.5) @ Lions: The Lions have really come back to Earth, especially offensively. I'll take Miami.

Points: Dolphins    Victory: Dolphins


Cardinals @ Vikings (-3.5): Very quietly, the Vikings are 5-1. I think that continues.

Points: Vikings   Victory: Vikings


Panthers @ Falcons (-4.5): Winner leads the NFC South. Not really sure, but I will split the difference. Falcons win but...

Points: Panthers     Victory: Falcons


Raiders (-1) @ Saints: PICK'EM #3!  Give me the Raiders. That's all.

Victory: Raiders


Titans (-3) @ Texans: Big win for the Titans last week. I think they back is up with another.

Points: Titans     Victory: Titans


Giants @ Seahawks (-3): My brain is saying Seahawks because the Giants' run defense has been bad recently. But I can't go against the Giants coaching again. Therefore, I will split the difference.

Points: Giants   Victory: Seahawks


Commanders @ Colts (-2.5): I like Taylor Heinicke more than others and I don't like the first-time starter in this spot. Give me the Commies on the road.

Victory: Commies


49ers @ Rams (-1.5): Niners have the hex on the Rams and honestly, I don't think there is a reason for it to stop. Give me the Niners

Victory: Niners


Packers @ Bills (-11): Yeah, this has the potential to get really ugly. Big number, but I have to take the Bills.

Points: Bills    Victory: Bills


Bengals (-3) @ Browns: UPSET PICK OF THE WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This would not have been on my radar, until the news came out yesterday that JaMarr Chase will be out the next couple of weeks with a hip injury. They will adjust, but it will be tough immediately. Browns hung around the Ravens, so they will be game. I think the Bengals struggle at first without Chase and the Browns get the upset.

Points: Browns     Victory: Browns
