It’s already the halfway point of the 2017 NFL season. Here are the opening point spreads for all 13 games being played in Week 9 this weekend.
With just Monday Night Football left on the Week 8 slate between the Denver Broncos and the Kansas City Chiefs, let’s focus our attention on the week ahead in the NFL. We’ve essentially made it to the halfway point of the season.
Week 9 will have 13 games, including three nationally televised contests. There will, however, be six teams on their byes this week. Those teams are the Chicago Bears, Cleveland Browns, Los Angeles Chargers, Minnesota Vikings, New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers.
Teams are starting to separate themselves from the pack. There has emerged one elite team in football. That would be the Philadelphia Eagles, who are a strong 7-1 through the first eight weeks of the season. Then there are a handful of teams that need to realize that the playoffs aren’t happening and it might be time to look ahead to the 2018 NFL Draft. Those struggling teams know who they are.
