In Week 8, the 49ers notched their eighth consecutive regular-season win over the Rams to drop the defending Super Bowl champions below .500, while the Patriots beat the Jets for the 13th straight time to get back to .500 on the season. Meanwhile, the Cowboys and Eagles covered massive spreads, while the Packers and Aaron Rodgers managed to cover as double-digit underdogs against the Bills.
For the second consecutive week, there will be three games with double-digit spreads, while every other game with the exception of the Panthers vs. Bengals has a spread of less than one touchdown.

Philadelphia Eagles at Houston Texans
The Eagles are still undefeated, and they looked incredible in their victory over the Steelers. Many may disregard the Steelers and Kenny Pickett, but they had covered the spread in back-to-back weeks prior to their trip to Philadelphia.
Now, the Eagles will travel to Houston for a Thursday Night Football game against the Texans, who just lost to Malik Willis and the Titans. In that game, the Texans were unable to stop Derrick Henry who rushed for 219 yards and two touchdowns.
This spread is already large, but with how these teams looked on Sunday, there is no reason to think that this spread isn't going to keep moving in the Eagles’ favor and potentially past the key number.
Current Line: Eagles -13.5
Predicted Final Line: Eagles -14.5
Buffalo Bills at New York Jets
This was supposed to be the year the Jets beat the Patriots. Instead, they lost and dropped to 5-3 on the season. Despite this disappointment, it's surprising to see them getting so many points against the Bills.
