MINTYBETS: It's week eight of the NFL. And we're here to give you guys our best bets for Sunday. I'll actually go first. My best bet for this week is going to be the Titans, Bengals game to go over 54 and 1/2. Now, I know that's kind of high.

But both these defenses are allowing an average of 25 to 26 points per game from their opponents. The Titans are second in scoring offense. And there's no way the Bengals can stop Derrick Henry.

But I do expect them to put a couple scores on the board here. So my pick is the over 54 and 1/2. Matt, let's go to you next.

MATTY_GENIUS: It won't be another week in the NFL if Minty didn't have some kind of action on the Bengals and Joe Burrow.

JARED QUAY: Yeah.

MATTY_GENIUS: So I think we're all in a good place. I'm going to go with a very square pick here. And my hair has got-- I look like a square. My head looks like a square, so it's perfect. I'm taking the Rams minus 3 and 1/2 against the Dolphins.

Everybody is going to be riding the Tua hype train this week. But it's his first start in the NFL. Going up against this defense, I hate to be a negative Nancy, but it's just not going to go well.

I'm taking the Rams laying 3 and 1/2. I can't believe it's only 3 and 1/2. Let's go.

JARED QUAY: Tua showed up in a National Championship game throwing touchdowns. The kid's made for primetime. But that's not my pick at all, right. I'm going against a team that I've hated for years. That's right, the Patriots are starting to slide.

And I can't wait to jump on the Bills minus 3 and 1/2. I don't know if you watch the Patriots games, but their offense cannot move the ball. Their best game plan is Cam Newton run for seven yards. That's all they do. I think the Bills have a great offense and they're going to score a lot of points here.

And this is a rivalry now. This is where the Bills get a chance to finally get eight, nine years of losing to the Patriots out in one game. I think this isn't going to be close.

I think the Bills win this one heavy. I'm taking a minus 3 and 1/2. And I'm really going to bet a lot on it.
