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.
