Jets logo

⏰Day/Time: Thursday, Oct. 31, 8:15 p.m. ET
Odds: New York -3 (Even)
Total: 45

A pretty decent game to kick-off the week, as Houston visits the Jets. The Jets had at quarterback last season. It’s still not easy to trust New York as a favorite, so the Texans deserve a look for one of the NFL Week 9 upsets.

Vikings logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: Minnesota -1 (-105)
Total: 46.5

The Colts need to see if Anthony Richardson can stay healthy, but continue to play his style. The Vikings need either Sam Darnold or JJ McCarthy to step up and take control of the offense. Last year’s QB play wasn’t very good after the injury to Kirk Cousins. The Vikings need to do better than 2-6 straight-up at home.

Panthers logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: New Orleans Even (-120)
Total: 40.5

This game is even, although the Panthers to get a victory, while the Saints can earn a road win. There’s little question New Orleans is entering the season as the better team. What transpires over the first eight weeks probably won’t be enough to change that. The NFL expert picks against the spread Week 9 will probably be on New Orleans. There are other games that are more appealing from a betting standpoint, however.

Browns logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: Cleveland -3 (-120)
Total: 43.5

The Browns show some improvement if Watson bounces back. Cleveland should have a big advantage on defense, so will have to take the Browns as an NFL Week 9 point spread play.

Titans logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: Tennessee -2.5
Total: 41

Another one of the early NFL Week 9 matchups that might you looking for yardwork to do instead of watching it on television. Tennessee is favored by 2.5 points and you can make a case the line should be a field goal. Even if Drake Maye isn’t starting yet, Jacoby Brissett is a better option than New England had last year. Will Levis went through some growing pains last year, though that was to be expected. The Titans had a head start and should be better this year. The Titans have to get a slight lean laying less than a field goal.

Bengals logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: Cincinnati -7
Total: 45

The NFL point spreads for Week 9 have the Bengals favored by 7 points and the total is 45. The spread sounds about right considering the Bengals are coming off a game with the Eagles and have a big game with Baltimore up next. This might be a spot where the Raiders manage to keep things close, so take Las Vegas +7.

Falcons logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: Dallas -1
Total: 48

The NFL Week 9 preseason preview sees the Falcons, this one could turn into a bit of shootout, so the over may be worth a look.

Bills logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: Buffalo -3
Total: 51

The weather may not be too bad this time of year for NFL picks and parlays for Week 9.

Ravens logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: Baltimore -10.5
Total: 43

Ravens in this spot. Baltimore is coming off a key division game with Cleveland and has Cincinnati waiting in the wings. Nobody can blame Baltimore if they’re not up for this game, which it can win even with a relatively poor performance.

Giants logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:00 p.m. ET
Odds: New York -1.5
Total: 42

This one isn’t one of the better games from a fan’s perspective, although it could be fairly close. The Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels may take a few lumps this season, but he has enormous potential. Washington in a teaser looks to be pretty tempting, as you can move the line to Washington +7.5.

Cardinals logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 4:05 p.m. ET
Odds: Chicago -1.5
Total: 46.5

The NFL points spreads for Week 9 have the Caleb Williams will have immediate success. Kyler Murray also has some talent and he’s also the more proven quarterback at this stage.

Packers logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 4:25 p.m. ET
Odds: Green Bay -1.5
Total: 49

The third straight game with a 1.5-point favorite and the third straight game that is going to attract the attention of teaser bettors. Anytime the potential is there to move a line across the numbers 3 and 7, teaser players are interested. This one could be a big game as far as the playoff implications for both teams. Green Bay has playoff aspirations of its own. The NFL results Week 9 from this game will help determine the NFC playoff picture.

Seahawks logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 4:25 p.m. ET
Odds: Los Angeles -1.5
Total: 46.5

The NFL Week 9 preseason preview notes it’s more of the same for teaser players in this game. The NFL injuries that take place this time of the season, as neither is particularly deep. This one should be a closely contested game that could go either way.

Eagles logo

⏰Day/Time: Sunday, Nov. 3, 8:15 p.m. ET
Odds: Philadelphia -3.5 (-105)
Total: 47

The Sunday night game is a decent matchup between the Eagles are healthy and clicking they’re a tough team. We didn’t always see the best the Eagles have to offer a year ago. The NFL line on this game doesn’t offer a lot of value, but it’s probably easier to make a case for the Jaguars plus the points.

Chiefs logo

⏰Day/Time: Monday, Nov. 3, 8:15 p.m. ET
Odds: Kansas City -7 (-120)
Total: 47

The Chiefs are favored by 7, which sounds about right. Tampa Bay is going to have its hands full if it wants to win a fourth straight division title. The Bucs may not be a great team, but they haven’t had to be to win the NFC South. The key for Tampa Bay is again letting Mayfield play his game and hope for the best. Mayfield did a good job of protecting the football least season. The Chiefs are saying they’re going to throw more deep es this season, but it remains to be seen. The over under Week 9 looks to be a shade high in this game and there is fair value on the under 47.
