Agree/Disagree With Colin Cowherd’s Blazing 5 Week 8 NFL Picks (2019)
It’s Friday, which means Colin Cowherd released his popular Blazin’ 5 NFL betting picks. Cowherd has been winning like crazy this season and he generally does a good job prognosticating pro football games. He said he likes the dogs in Week 8 so let’s have a look…
Colin Cowherd’s Blazin’ 5 Week 8 NFL Picks
NY Giants (+6.5) at Detroit
Denver at Indianapolis (-4.5)
NY Jets (+6.5) at Jacksonville
Carolina (+6) at San Francisco
Oakland at Houston (-7)
Agree or Disagree?
NY Giants (+6.5) at Detroit— DISAGREE
Detroit is the best two-win team out there. They desperately need a win to boost confidence and get them back to .500. Nothing says confidence like a blowout. Oh yeah, Daniel Jones is bad…
Denver at Indianapolis (-4.5) — DISAGREE
This goes against Colin’s golden rule. The Broncos were blown out last week on Thursday Night Football and I believe that with extra time to rest and prepare, they’ll come back and put on a good showing at Indy.
NY Jets (+6.5) at Jacksonville — AGREE
Colin went with his rule on this one and I’m in. No ghosts out in Jacksonville…because who wants to live in Jacksonville?
Carolina (+6) at San Francisco— AGREE
Another agreement. As much as I’ve enjoyed them this year, the 49ers don’t seem like a 7-0 team to me. They’re overdue for a letdown.
Oakland at Houston (-7) — AGREE
Derek Carr struggles on the road. In his career, he’s 14-28 away from home. Plus, the Texans are a very good team that lost a real tough one last week. I can see them coming out and putting a beatdown on Oakland.
