NFL Football WK 8 2008 Picks

The Titans are the only team to remain undefeated going into week 8, and they face the Colts.  It has all the makings to be a really good game, but with the way the Colts have been playing (3-3) it’s anyone’s guess.  Mine is for the Colts.  I think the Titans have faced really weak teams so far, and I believe the Colts are one of the stronger teams, even when they’re weak.  As a team, the Colts have more experience than the Titans and I think that will help them carry the day. 

The Bengals and Lions are the only teams left who have yet to win a game.  What a terrible time to be a fan of either of those teams!  My heart goes out to them!

Teams with only 1 win: Seahawks, Chiefs.

Teams with only 1 loss: Steelers, Giants, Bills.   This will absolutely change after this week since the Giants and Steelers go head to head at Heinz Field.

NFC Division leaders in blue, AFC Division leaders in red.

Looks like some interesting match-ups this week and some games are hard to call.  Will the Titans be able to beat the Colts, the strongest team they’ve faced to date?  Who will walk away from the Giants-Steelers battle remaining with only a single loss?  Don’t expect anything to change in the NFC North standings since practically the entire division is on bye, and the Lions aren’t likely to beat the Redskins. 

Byes this week: Broncos, Vikings, Bears, Packers
