Picks included the Bengals beating the Titans easily, the Patriots winning (but maybe not covering) in Miami, and the Broncos over the Chiefs. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/d414788e-66f3-48d9-9b22-d255c2108a2f (scored 0) - Pete Prisco on New York Jets: Prisco picks every Week 8 game with a predicted final score, including the Packers beating the Panthers, the Lions handing the undefeated Vikings their first loss, and the Bengals blowing out the Titans. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/0e9d8078-8a3c-4465-92a9-e73302d4a67c (scored 35.71) - Nick Faria on New York Jets: Faria says rookie edge rusher David Bailey, now at five sacks, is on track to win Defensive Rookie of the Year, and that Garrett Wilson is headed for a 100-catch, 1,000-yard, 10-touchdown season.
