Week 8 NFL Picks Against the Spread (ATS): Yanotchko
Here are my Week 8 picks against the spread:
Detroit Lions -3.5 over Atlanta Falcons (5 units)
This game was supposed to be the best one we were going to import to London, but now it seems like we are ripping the Brits off yet again. The Falcons have been horrific on defense this year, as they have given up 274 yards per game through the air, and on the ground, they have given up 137 yards per game and 4.1 yards per carry. The Falcons have also been really bad against the number this year, as they have posted a 2-5 mark, and this matchup certainly does not favor them at all. I have every advantage checked for Detroit in this game, the No. 1 defense going against a banged-up line, Joique Bell against the league’s worst run defense (fantasy) scoring wise, and Matthew Stafford against that secondary. I am taking all five units on this play here, and I think the Lions will win going away.
Indianapolis Colts -4 over Pittsburgh Steelers (5 units)
After dropping their first two games, the Colts have been a machine ripping off five straight games in a row, and they will absolutely get number six in Pittsburgh this week. The Steelers had their Monday night game gift wrapped to them by the Texans, but when it comes down to it, the Steelers are really a horrible defense. I really love Andrew Luck getting to throw against a banged-up Pittsburgh secondary that gives up 231 yards through the air and 10 TDs so far as well. I also love the Colts remodeled defense, that can stop the run by only givng up 96.7 yards per game, and they will be able to hold Le’veon Bell in check. The Colts have been straight up fire against the spread this year as well, as they have posted an amazing 6-1 record against the number. I love the Colts passing game against this Pittsburgh D that can’t get after the quarterback at all, and I am going another five units on this one.
DraftKings $2.2 Millionaire Maker Week 8 Contest: Turn $27 (entry) into $1 Million (top prize).
Houston Texans -4 over Tennessee Titans (4 units)
If you have been following us for awhile, you know that I am the type of guy that has certain rules. I believe in never drafting any New York Jets offensive player for fantasy purposes, any Green Bay running back, and also when a rookie QB is starting, I am going the other way. That photo of Zach Mettenberg that is going around scares me, and it almost makes me think that this guy is strung out, and not a professional athlete. I also love the fact that the Texans have a great ground-and-pound game, and they get to play a Titans defense that gives up 123 yards per game, and 4.0 yards per carry. The Texans have also been great against the number this year as well, posting a 4-1-1 mark. I just love J.J. Watt and the return of Jadeveon Clowney wreaking havoc at the line of scrimmage, and I really don’t think that the rookie will be up for this kind of pressure. Give me the 4 units on this one for certain.

Whistler Blowers, Insiders
I like ‘em. I’ll drop a 20 on these picks for a 5 teamer. I can’t take the over on the Colts game.
The way Fatburger’s been playing, he’s going to chew the clock since Le’veon Bell is the only thing the Steelers have that’s halfway worth a crap. Oh and i’ve got the Colts giving up 3, so you’re getting retailed wherever you’re at for 4.
Oh and you got the Texans -4? The Cannery has ‘em giving up a point. Man, wherever your action is, i’m glad i’m not betting with them. You’re getting raked over the coals on the spreads. However, i will say this. You’ve got the Lions -3.5, i’m giving up 4. But that texans spread…holy crap!
