NFL Week 8 Betting Preview
NFL Week 8 Betting Preview, It is late October and the NFL regular season is rapidly closing-in on its halfway point. This only adds to betting action for some of Week 8’s games as they become almost must-win affairs for a few high-profile teams.
The team at the top of that list would be the New Orleans Saints, who come into this Sunday night’s showdown against Green Bay with an overall record of 2-4 both straight-up and against the spread. The Saints have lost three games this season as favorites and BetOnline NFL Sportsbooks has opened them as slight one-point home favorites against the 5-2 Packers. The total for this NFC showdown has been set at 55.5. Green Bay is just 1-7 both SU and ATS in its last eight games as underdogs on the road.
Last season’s Super Bowl champs suddenly find themselves in desperate need of a win after dropping their last two games both SU and ATS. The Seattle Seahawks are now 3-3 SU and ATS on the year heading into this Sunday’s matchup against Carolina. BetOnline’s NFL football betting odds for this game have Seattle favored by five points on the road with the total set at 44.5. The Seahawks are 4-0 ATS in their last four road games against a team from the NFC South.
The Houston Texans eclipsed last season’s win total of just two games with a promising 3-1 SU and ATS start in their first four games, but they have reverted to their old form with three straight losses heading into Sunday’s road game against Tennessee. The Texans have been listed as two-point road favorites for this AFC South tilt with the total set at 43. Houston has been able to cover the spread in five of its last six games against the Titans.
Washington has stumbled out of the gate with a 2-5 start both SU and ATS and this Monday night it will have the unenviable task of going on the road as a 10-point underdog to face the red-hot 6-1 Dallas Cowboys. BetOnline has set the total for this classic NFC East rivalry at 49.5. The Redskins will come into Big D with a profitable 12-3 record ATS in the last 15 meetings and the total has stayed UNDER in the last three games between the two. Top
