What are the best bets for Week 8 of the 2014 NFL season?
Happy Sunday! The 2014 NFL season continues with another jam-packed slate of games in Week 8, and while this week’s Thursday night appetizer did not live up to the considerable hype in terms of competitiveness, we have high hopes for Sunday’s group of games. Throughout the first seven weeks of the campaign, we have provided you with five selections per week on the NFL slate, but unfortunately, the Week 7 picks continued a bizarre trend of less than ideal results. Now, we will be aiming to bounce back toward a more positive trend in handicapping the league.
As always, “fade the public” is the general principle of this column, and if there is anything to indicate that the “sharper” investment is one direction, we will often be the first to pounce on it, even if it requires some ignorance to reality and public perception. Before we get to the picks, let’s look at where we stand for the season, including last week’s less than desirable results:
- Last week: 2-3
- Season: 14-20-1
With that out of the way, let’s take a look at this week’s selections!
