NFL Week 8 Must Bet Games | MyBookie NFL Preview

NFL Week 8: October 26-29, 2023

New England Patriots at Miami Dolphins

NFL Odds: Patriots -4; Dolphins +4 / Patriots +160; Dolphins -190
When: Sunday, October 29, 2023 at 1:00pm ET
Where: Hard Rock Stadium | Miami Gardens, Florida

Even when the Patriots were at the height of their powers, the Dolphins always played them tough. Now the Dolphins are the better of the two teams, yet still, this battle is always fun.

Miami and New England split the two games last year, and don’t be surprised if it happens again in 2023.

The Patriots have a new and far more explosive offense than last year, and that will keep this game close.

Houston Texans at Carolina Panthers

NFL Odds: Texans +3; Panthers -3 / Texans +130; Panthers -150
When: Sunday, October 29, 2023 at 1:00pm ET
Where: Bank of America Stadium | Charlotte, North Carolina

All draft season, the debate between C.J. Stroud and Bryce Young raged on. Who would the Panthers take, and who should they take? In the Carolina draft room, that question was answered, with Young being the first overall pick. Now we get to see it answered on the field.

Two years ago, we had the No. 1 pick, Trevor Lawrence, losing to the No. 2 pick, Zach Wilson. Now Wilson is out of job. We expect both Stroud and Young to have jobs in their third NFL seasons, but who knows which of the two will have the leg up in their first-ever meeting.

Carolina is the better overall team, they are home, and they are the favorite against the Texans.

New York Jets at New York Giants

NFL Odds: Jets -1.5; Giants +1.5 / Jets -120; Giants +100
When: Sunday, October 29, 2023 at 1:00pm ET
Where: MetLife Stadium | East Rutherford, New Jersey

The Aaron Rodgers addition to the Jets will be judged by the AFC East standings, potential playoff wins, and by how he does in the battle of New York. If he can make it in this game, he can make it anywhere.

In light of the Giants making the playoffs last year, and the Jets making the biggest move of the NFL’s offseason, this is the most important out-of-conference game for the Jets in years. For their fans and for the New York media, this is a must-win. Rodgers cannot lose to Daniel Jones.

With that kind of importance, feel comfortable giving the points. This will be a solid Jets win, setting them up for a good run through the season’s second half.

Cincinnati Bengals at San Francisco 49ers

NFL Odds: Bengals +1; 49ers -1 / Bengals -105; 49ers -115
When: Sunday, October 29, 2023 at 4:25pm ET
Where: Levi’s Stadium | Santa Clara, California

The Bengals and 49ers are two teams that have lost in the Super Bowl in the recent past and are favorites to get back there this season. The collection of offensive weapons in Cincinnati is perhaps the best in the league. The collection of defensive standouts in San Francisco is perhaps the best in the league.

The 49ers are early modest favorites to win at home, and it’s a good spread to bet right now. By Week 8, the quarterback question will have been answered for the 49ers, and they may be three- or four-point favorites by the time this game kicks off.

The Bengals are going to have a good season, but this trip to California is going to be tough.
