NFL 2017 Week 8 Lines: Point Spreads, Betting Odds From Las Vegas
Six teams are favored by more than a touchdown, according to the betting odds for Week 8 of the 2017 NFL season. Some of the top Super Bowl contenders are heavy home favorites at the halfway mark of the year.
The Philadelphia Eagles have established themselves as the best team in football with a 6-1 record, and they’ll host the San Francisco 49ers in the most lopsided matchup of Week 8. The 49ers are still looking for their first win of the year, so it’s not surprising that the betting line is approaching two touchdowns.
Tied for the AFC’s best record at 5-2, the Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots are both 7.5-point home favorites against quality opponents. Kansas City hosts the Denver Broncos on “Monday Night Football.” New England plays the Los Angeles Chargers, who have won their last three games.
The Minnesota Vikings are the biggest favorites away from their own stadium in Week 8. They are giving the winless Cleveland Browns 9.5 points in London. Minnesota is tied for the second-best record in the NFC.
The contests on both “Thursday Night Football” and “Sunday Night Football” feature three-point betting lines. The Miami Dolphins are road underdogs against the Baltimore Ravens, and the Detroit Lions are home underdogs against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
No over/under is higher than that of the one in the contest between the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins. Both teams are trying to stay alive in the NFC East race with three fewer wins than the first-place Eagles.
The Arizona Cardinals, Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Rams, Tennessee Titans, New York Giants and Jacksonville Jaguars all have byes in Week 8.
