Greg Cote's Week 8 NFL picks

A storm tossed our little boat on a roiling sea last week but did not capsize what continues a strong season. Tweet! I've just been penalized 15 yards for torturing a metaphor). The 4-9-1 against the spread (Bucs' win by 3 pushed) really hurts. Had Houston-with-points at Jax but too little else went my way. Too many ill-advised major risks led by an Upset of the Week call that surmised the Stinkin' Jets would beat Minnesota. Also had Fins beating Detroit, although that was a gamble I don't regret. Back in the boat to the siren song of a comeback week! (Note: Thursday night pick was At Texans (-7{) over Dolphins, 30-16.)
