Moving Day. NFL Week 8 Preview

A orange house with moving trucks and boxes outside.


I was busy moving this blog to WordPress, I forgot to post the preview on time. Goddammit!


THE GAMES


2024 NFL season week 8 Minnesota Vikings vs Los Angeles Rams
Minnesota Vikings   41
Los Angeles Rams  31

Justin Jefferson should get over 100 yards with the Vikings scoring 41 points. 


2024 NFL season week 8 Baltimore Ravens vs Cleveland Browns
Baltimore Ravens    45
Cleveland Browns    3

After demanding the Browns stop starting Deshaun Watson, fans got their wish as he's out for the season with a ruptured Achilles. So the starter this time will be Jameis Winston with OC Ken Dorsey calling the plays in an attempt to spark the offense. They likely wanted Dorian Thompson-Robinson to start but he jammed his finger in relief of Watson. But with 2 injured QBs, they signed former Patriot Bailey Zappe off the Chiefs practice squad. Best of luck to them!


2024 NFL season week 8 Tennessee Titans vs Detroit Lions
Tennessee Titans   14
Detroit Lions           16

Lions WR Jameson Williams got suspended again but this time it's 2 games for PEDs. Whoops!


2024 NFL season week 8 Indianapolis Colts vs Houston Texans
Indianapolis Colts    16
Houston Texans        9

Even though the Texans are 5-2, C.J. Stroud is tied for 3rd in times sacked with 20. Coach DeMeco Ryans knows the poor offense line play is something they need to "get fixed" because they can't afford for him to go down this season. Especially with all the roster moves and new uniforms signaling these are the brand-new Texans. These aren't the same Texans where the QB broke the record for times sacked in a season. But they do need to get their shit together.


2024 NFL season week 8 Green Bay Packers vs Jacksonville Jaguars
Green Bay Packers      23
Jacksonville Jaguars  19

I hope Shelton Benjamin doesn't get injured doing something stupid in AEW.


2024 NFL season week 8 Arizona Cardinals vs Miami Dolphins
Arizona Cardinals   31
Miami Dolphins       12

Speaking of stupid, Tua won't wear the Guardian Cap during games. Oh well.


2024 NFL season week 8 New York Jets vs New England Patriots
New York Jets                20
New England Patriots   30

While A-Rod is throwing picks and picking noses, Robert Saleh is now working with the Pack.


2024 NFL season week 8 Atlanta Falcons vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Atlanta Falcons                25
Tampa Bay Buccaneers  29

Best of luck to Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin on recovering from his dislocated ankle.


2024 NFL season week 8 Philadelphia Eagles vs Cincinnati Bengals
Philadelphia Eagles   21
Cincinnati Bengals    30

Yeah, I got nothing to say here.


2024 NFL season week 8 New Orleans Saints vs Los Angeles Chargers
New Orleans Saints       34
Los Angeles Chargers  16

What better way for Alvin Kamara to celebrate his new 2 year, $24.5 million contract extension with the Saints than to break the team's all-time rushing yards record with a 245 yard game?


2024 NFL season week 8 Buffalo Bills vs Seattle Seahawks
Buffalo Bills           10
Seattle Seahawks  17

Skip.


2024 NFL season week 8 Chicago Bears vs Washington Commanders
Chicago Bears                        6
Washington Commanders   21

Is it a good idea to have your rookie QB play through a rib injury? That's just asking for trouble.


2024 NFL season week 8 Carolina Panthers vs Denver Broncos
Carolina Panthers   10
Denver Broncos      38

Since Andy Dalton sprained his thumb in a car crash, Bryce Young will start for the Panthers. I can't help but feel Bryce will get sacked 6 times, throw 2 INTs and fumble before getting yanked.


2024 NFL season week 8 Kansas City Chiefs vs Las Vegas Raiders
Kansas City Chiefs  37
Las Vegas Raiders   16

The Chiefs fleeced the Titans with that DeAndre Hopkins trade making that 3-peat more likely.


2024 NFL season week 8 Dallas Cowboys vs San Francisco 49ers
Dallas Cowboys           0
San Francisco 49ers   17

While teams giving tours of their facilities is nothing new, Jerry Jones doing it while his team is practicing came off as a shock to the football world. The Cowboys have 6 different tour options at both AT&T Stadium and The Star where you have guided and self-guided tours visiting the locker room, field, restaurant, suites and other areas for about $55 per adult. There're a lot of things you can say about Jerral, but there's no questioning his ability to make money. His franchise is the most valuable in the world despite not winning a Super Bowl since Troy Aikman was on the field in pads instead of a suit. Anyways, they're getting shutout by the Niners.


2024 NFL season week 8 New York Giants vs Pittsburgh Steelers
New York Giants       13
Pittsburgh Steelers  30

Mike Tomlin Let Russ Cook and he served up a 37-15 win over the Jets passing 16/29 for 264 yards and 2 TDs plus a rushing TD. He looks to roast the other Jersey team in primetime as well.


LAST WEEK: 10-5
OVERALL:     64-43
