NFL picks and score predictions for Week 8 as we near the midway point of the 2020 season.

Yes, the 2020 NFL season is just about halfway over. Not long ago, we were worried there wouldn’t be football this year, and now we’re eight weeks in. Regardless of how fast this campaign seems to be rolling along, we’re ready to deliver our weekly NFL picks!

As always, we’ve got you covered with the Week 8 edition of NFL picks and score predictions. Now I’ll never claim that these are going to be 100 percent on point. In fact, there’s a very good chance at least a few of my picks will go completely awry. I will, however, make my selections based on research, experience, and careful consideration.

After a rough last few weeks, I finally pulled it together in Week 7. When all was said and done, I had put together a 10-4 record with my Week 7 NFL picks, boosting my overall record on the year to 65-40-1. I would have loved for it to be better at this point in the season, but it could also be worse. You need to take the wins where you can, I guess.

Just remember that making picks is not a science. As much research goes into it, anything can happen on any given Sunday. Isn’t that part of why we watch football in the first place?

Now that we’ve gotten all of that out of the way, here are my NFL picks and score predictions for Week 8. Just keep in mind that I assume no responsibility if you choose to place wagers based on my picks — that’s your decision, not mine.

Week 8 Byes: Arizona Cardinals (5-2), Houston Texans (1-6), Jacksonville Jaguars (1-6), Washington Football Team (2-5)
