Top Week 8 NFL predictions
One of the model’s strongest Week 8 NFL picks is that the Colts (-3) cover the spread at home against Washington. The Commanders rank in the bottom 10 in total offense and have the fewest takeaways in the league. They have topped 17 points just once over their last five games, while the defense has given up at least 21 points in six of seven contests.
On the other side, Colts running back Jonathan Taylor came off a two-game absence in Week 7 to produce 85 total yards and average 5.8 yards per carry, while Washington is in the bottom half of the league in yards per rush allowed. The Commanders don’t have enough offensive firepower to stick with the Colts on the road and the model has Indianapolis winning by more than a touchdown. Thus, the Colts (-4) cover in over 60% of simulations and the Over (41.5) is projected to hit well over 50% of the time. See which other teams to pick here.
