Font’s Five: 2020 NFL Week 8 Picks of The Week

Anthony Fontanello / NFL / October 29, 2020

Welcome back to Font’s Five. Last week was a good week as we went 3-1-1. But that was then; this is now. Let’s get started, and remember, I don’t want your money. I want your bookie’s money.

Font’s Five Isn’t Giving Up on the Bills Just Yet

Bills -3.5, The Bills burned us last week, but you know what? That’s ok. Buffalo is looking to beat the New England Patriots finally. And to be honest, I have no idea how the Patriots are anywhere close in this game. Especially with the way they have looked recently.

Raiders, Pack, Steelers, and 49ers

Raiders +2.5, The Raiders are coming into Cleveland after an ugly loss to the Bucs last week. And the Browns didn’t look so good in their win either. Josh Jacobs and Darren Waller get it going here, and the Raiders come away with a win. Or at the very least cover. Like the great Al Davis once said, win, baby.

Packers -6.5, The Packers and Aaron Rodgers are playing pissed off football again. Bad for defenses good for us, bettors. They are coming off a great win over Houston. The Pack got Davante Adams involved heavily. They come into this matchup with the Vikings looking to keep the hot streak going. No Dalvin Cook and with the way ARod has been playing this year. This game won’t be close.

Steelers +3.5, Look as of right now, the Steelers are the best and most complete team in the NFL. They can score and defend at the highest level. It’s always a tough matchup playing the Ravens at home, but Big Ben and the Steelers will win this game. The fact they aren’t favored is preposterous. However, take the Steelers every week until otherwise stated.

49ers +2.5, San Francisco, is coming off an absolute manhandling of the New England Patriots. Seattle had a heart breaker in overtime to Arizona. But the Niners still defend well, and with that Seattle defense, they might put up close to 40. The Niners may not win this game, but best believe they will cover.
