Tonight we get a double header for Monday Night Football. Now normally for the standalone primetime games I’ll pick the spread and the total. For this week we are just going to look at the spreads though. We’ll start with the Bills and Titans and finish with the Eagles and Vikings.

Bills (-10) vs. Titans (+10)

I’ve been having trouble with this one all week. All I keep thinking is that 10 points is too many for a team like Tennessee that is talented and will control the ball and burn the clock. Then I think about what Buffalo did to the Rams last week and I think that we could be looking at a blowout here. Regardless of the spread, I see the Bills winning and I do think this line is inflated a bit due to what happened last week. I just can’t see myself going against the Bills right now though. All it takes is for Josh Allen to put up a game sealing touchdown in a one score game to get this to double digits and a cover for the Bills. Just about 3/4 of the money has come in on Buffalo too. I hate doing this, but you have to roll with the Bills here until they show any sign of slowing down.

The Play: Bills -10

Eagles (-2.5) vs. Vikings (+2.5)

This has all the makings of a great game. Both these teams were impressive last week and seem to continue to be everyone’s dark horse Super Bowl picks. I buy what the Eagles are selling a little bit more than the Vikings though. Minnesota took advantage of a depleted receiving corps for Aaron Rodgers last week and I’d like to see where that momentum takes them this week. My guess is not very far because, that’s right you guessed it, they’re playing in primetime. We all know how Kirk Cousins fares in those games. Not well. The Eagles on the other hand may have only won by three against Detroit last week, but the Lions scored twice in the fourth quarter to close the gap. I think the home field advantage will help the Eagles out immensely. The Eagles also have two talented corners that will hopefully be able to slow down (not stop because that might be impossible) Justin Jefferson as well. I’m feeling a backbreaking interception late in the game for Kirk Cousins and the Eagles win by a score.

The Play: Eagles -2.5
