Our NFL Insiders predict Week 8's biggest upsets and fantasy flops/sleepers. Plus: Which team will finish with a better record -- Dallas or Philly? Will Atlanta end up with the No. 1 offense? And should L.A. make a QB change?
What's your biggest upset for Week 8?
Matt Bowen, NFL writer: Packers over Falcons. Green Bay's secondary will give up plays to Julio Jones, but I like Aaron Rodgers versus the Falcons' single-high safety defenses. If the Packers continue to operate in the short-to-intermediate passing game, Rodgers can expose the inside throwing windows and move the ball consistently versus Atlanta. Take the three-point spread and the Packers on the road. This could be a shootout.
Mike Sando, senior NFL writer: The biggest potential upset I can find, point-spreadswise, was Chicago over Minnesota in the Monday night game. The Bears will have 11 days between games, with minimal travel on the front end. The Vikings' issues along the offensive line aren't going away. They are coming off a rough game against the Eagles and could be vulnerable on the road against a division rival.
