Betting Week 9 NFL Games

NFL Week 9 begins with a massive AFC matchup when the Houston Texans head to the Meadowlands to take on the New York Jets.

Both teams continue to have playoff aspirations although Houston’s are more realistic.

Then on Sunday, the Lions battle the Packers and on Monday, it’s Baker Mayfield and the Bucs versus Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs.

Check out analysis of this week’s top quarterback matchups.

Writer’s NFL Quarterback Picks for the Week 9 Matchups

Houston – CJ Stroud at NYJ – Aaron Rodgers

Thursday, October 31st, 2024

Both Stroud and Rodgers can post amazing stats but although AR hasn’t had as good of a season as CJ, the future hall of fame quarterback is ready to breakout.

Davante Adams and Rodgers is going to become a thing in this game.

Also, the Jets have a bad run defense, which means the Texans will hand the ball to Joe Mixon for most of this one.

Rodgers wins the QB matchup.

NFL Week 9 QB Pick: Aaron Rodgers

Dallas – Dak Prescott at Atlanta – Kirk Cousins

Sunday, November 3rd, 2024

Dak can get it done for sure, but the issue is that Prescott is on the road and plays against a decent defense.

Cousins should have no trouble torching a Dallas defense that isn’t close to being what it was in 2023.

Kirk also tends to light it up on his home turf.

Expect a heavy dose of Bijan Robinson both in the rushing game and passing attack.

Cousins scores the stats victory.

NFL Week 9 QB Pick: Kirk Cousins

Chicago – Caleb Williams at Arizona – Kyler Murray

Sunday, November 3rd, 2024

Williams versus Murray is going to be a fun quarterback battle.

Caleb has begun to assert himself as a legit NFL starter while Murray has flat out taken over a few games this season.

Arizona’s defense isn’t as bad as many believe.

Chicago’s defense is good, though.

But Murray doesn’t have a DeAndre Swift on which to lean, meaning Kyler is going to account for 80% to 90% of the AZ offense.

NFL Week 9 QB Pick: Kyler Murray

Detroit – Jared Goff at Green Bay – Jordan Love

Sunday, November 3rd, 2024

If you’re handicapping against the spread or moneyline, Detroit has a real shot of covering and winning this one against the spread.

If you’re looking at QB matchups, Jordan Love wins the battle.

Love is a multiple TD throwing machine.

He’ll get a few against Detroit, 3 at least, because the Lions’ secondary is so-so and without Aidan Hutchinson, Dan Campbell must be creative to put pressure on Love.

Goff won’t need to counter because Green Bay’s D will struggle to contain Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

NFL Week 9 QB Pick: Jordan Love

LAR – Matthew Stafford at Seattle – Geno Smith

Sunday, November 3rd, 2024

Much respect to Geno Smith who continues to play at a high level after so many years in NFL purgatory before landing with the Hawks.

Matthew Stafford, though, is the best quarterback in the NFL when Puka Nucua, Cooper Kupp, and Kyrene Williams are healthy.

The Rams should score over 30 in this with Staff throwing 3 TD passes.

NFL Week 9 QB Pick: Matthew Stafford

Tampa Bay – Baker Mayfield at Kansas City – Patrick Mahomes

Monday, November 4, 2024

Mahomes doesn’t have to post brilliant stats for the Kansas City Chiefs to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Patrick doesn’t even have to throw a TD in this and the Chiefs should prevail.

Tampa’s lone hope is for Baker to beat Steve Spagnuolo’s defense with 3 to 4 TD passes.

It isn’t likely to happen but Baker should still throw for more yards than Patrick.

So Baker gets the QB victory while the Chiefs win the game.

NFL Week 9 QB Pick: Patrick Mahomes

How does it work?

Do Quarterbacks Affect NFL Bets?

Absolutely, quarterbacks are a major factor in NFL betting.

A top-tier quarterback can significantly impact a team’s performance and, consequently, the betting odds.

Point Spread:
A skilled quarterback can drive a team to victory, even against a favored opponent. Their ability to read defenses, make accurate throws, and lead scoring drives can drastically affect the point spread.
Moneyline
A strong quarterback can make a team a favorite to win outright, regardless of the point spread.
Over/Under:
A high-powered offense led by a talented quarterback can push the total points scored higher, making over bets more attractive.

When betting on NFL games, it’s crucial to consider the following:

Quarterback Health:
Injuries to star quarterbacks can significantly impact a team’s performance and betting odds.
Offensive Line Protection:
A strong offensive line can protect the quarterback, allowing them to make plays and drive the offense.
Offensive Weapons
The quality of a team’s receivers and running backs can also influence a quarterback’s performance and, in turn, the betting odds.

By understanding the impact of quarterbacks on NFL games, you can make more informed betting decisions and increase your chances of winning.

Top NFL QBs Entering Week 9 Expert Analysis

Previous Betting News

Okay MyBookie NFL gridiron betting nation, with Week 9 just days away from getting started, it’s time to take a look at the top handful of signal-callers in this week’s quarterback power rankings. With that thought in mind, let’s jump right into action so you can wager against their NFL odds.

NFL QBs Power Rankings for Week 9

Russell Wilson

While things could chance over the course of the second half, I just don’t see it happening. Russell Wilson leads the league in quarterback rating (120.7) and has thrown an NFL-leading 26 touchdown passes, which is more than any player in NFL history through seven games except for Tom Brady, who connected on 27 TD strikes in seven games in 2007 on the way to a record-tying 50 for the season that year.

More importantly, Wilson is virtually unstoppable even when he faces pressure as he deftly navigates the pocket to find an open receiver. A dozen of Wilson’s touchdown passes have come while under pressure and that’s just not fair to opposing defenses. Wilson has completed a blistering 71.5 percent of his pass and is undeniably leading the 2020 MVP race at this point and it looks like it’s his to lose if you ask me.

Patrick Mahomes

The 2018 league MVP is actually playing better than he did two years ago. Mahomes ranks second in quarterback rating (115.0) and has thrown 21 TD passes against just one interception. Kansas City’s leading man has a higher QBR, completion rate (66.9%) and touchdown-to-interception ratio through eight games than he did two years ago. It’s scary how good Mahomes is right now, particularly since his ceiling is virtually limitless.

Aaron Rodgers

Even with little help at the wide receiver position, Rodgers ranks third in quarterback rating (113.0). The future Hall of Famer has thrown 20 TD passes and only two interceptions this season while completing 65.9 percent of his passes.

Ben Roethlisberger

While Roethlisberger ranks a modest 11th in quarterback rating (99.8), he’s thrown 15 TD passes against just four interceptions while completing a stellar 67.9 percent of his passes. Make no mistake about it, Roethlisberger’s return is the main reason why Pittsburgh remains the only undefeated team in the NFL heading into Week 9.

Deshaun Watson

It’s a damned shame that Watson has no offensive help in Houston, but it’s a testament to how good he really is that the former Clemson national championship winner ranks sixth in quarterback rating (108.7) while completing a stellar 69.5 percent of his passes with 15 TD passes and a modest five interceptions. Watson has been sacked a league-high 22 times, but I fully believe he would be among the league MVP contenders if he were playing for a winning team.

Derek Carr

I’m a little bit stunned that no one is talking about Raiders quarterback Derek Carr this season. No matter, Carr has let his play do the talking by ranking a stupendous fourth in quarterback rating (110.2) while completing a blistering 71.1 percent of his passes with 14 touchdowns and only two interceptions. If Las Vegas starts to improve over the second half of the season, you could hear Carr’s name being thrown around as a potential MVP candidate.

Ryan Tannehill

Tannehill has been completely transformed into an excellent quarterback ever since making his first start in Tennessee. Now, the former Miami Dolphins first round draft pick ranks fifth in quarterback rating (109.8) while completing 67.4 percent of his passes. Tannehill has thrown an impressive 17 touchdown passes and only three interceptions and has turned the Titans into a legitimate threat in the AFC.

Justin Herbert

Thrown into the fire in Week 2 when starter Tyrod Taylor couldn’t play. Herbert has now entrenched himself as the future for the LA Chargers. In six starts this season, Herbert has completed 67.4 percent of his passes while ranking an encouraging eighth in quarterback rating (104.5). The former Oregon star has thrown a stunning 15 TD passe sand just five picks and is tied with Russell Wilson for the NFL lead in touchdown passes that travel at least 15 yards in the air (nine). Herbert also leads the league with seven scoring throws that have traveled at least 20 yards. Burrow has been as good as almost any veteran in the game.

Drew Brees

Even after getting off to a slow start and playing virtually all season without superstar wideout Michael Thomas, future Hall of Fame signal-caller Drew Brees is ranked seventh in quarterback rating (106.5). Brees leads the NFL in completion percentage (73.1%) and has thrown 13 TD passes against just three interceptions. When Michael Thomas does return, it could be lights out for the rest of the NFL Super Bowl contenders.

Joe Burrow

I’m not gonna’ lie. I didn’t hold Joe Burrow in the highest regard coming out of championship winning LSU, but now, I totally believe in the top pick in this year’s NFL draft. Burrow has been a revelation as he ranks third in passing yards (2,272) while throwing 11 TD passes and only five interceptions. Burrow ranks 24th in quarterback rating (91.4), but hell, that’s better than veteran starters like Nick Foles, Baker Mayfield, Cam Newton and Carson Wentz. Make no mistake about it, the sky’s the ceiling for Burrow and the suddenly competitive Cincinnati Bengals.
