NFL Week 8 Overreactions
Mackenzie Salmon breaks down the wildest games from Week 8.
Sports Seriously
The New England Patriots (2-6) are rebuilding, but they’re coming off a big win, and they’ll try to keep some momentum going against another struggling team in the Tennessee Titans (1-7).
If there was a moment that signaled the end of the New York Jets season, it likely will be pinned to the day the Patriots took down the supposed super-team. It wasn’t a pretty win, but it was enough to spoil a division rival while giving a bright spot in a tough season.
Tennessee might have hit a new low when it took a thumping from the Detroit Lions in a 38-point loss. The Titans are one of two teams to only have one win; can they join the Patriots with a much-needed victory?

Lorenzo Reyes: Patriots 17, Titans 16
Frankly, I would stay away from this play, altogether, but I’ll give a slight edge to New England. There are far more interesting matchups out there this week.
Tyler Dragon: Patriots 17, Titans 16
The Patriots and Titans have a combined three wins. This game will impact 2025 draft positions. Both these clubs are in a rebuild. A win against the Jets last week should boost New England’s confidence.
Richard Morin: Patriots 17, Titans 10
New England may be rebuilding but they don’t deserve to be 3.5-point underdogs against a Tennessee squad that is arguably in worse shape. Especially if Drake Maye is cleared to play, it’s got to be the Patriots in this one.
Jordan Mendoza: Titans 15, Patriots 13
Tennessee is coming off an embarrassing performance while New England is riding high. The Titans completely flip it around with a win in a low-scoring affair.
