2020 NFL picks, score predictions for Week 9

NFL picks and score predictions for Week 9 as the second half of the 2020 season gets underway.

We have officially hit the midway point of the 2020 NFL season, and what a ride it’s been. We’re inching closer to finding out who will be crowned champ this year as the contenders separate themselves from the pretenders. For now, though, we’re ready to deliver our weekly NFL picks!

As always, we’ve got you covered with the Week 9 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.

Can we just go back to Week 7? I had gotten myself back on track two weeks ago, but unfortunately lost my way a bit with my Week 8 NFL picks. After Monday Night Football came to an end, I had a 7-6 record to show for my efforts. Definitely not my best so far this season, and I’ll admit I can do better.

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 9. 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 9 Byes: Cincinnati Bengals (2-5-1), Cleveland Browns (5-3), Los Angeles Rams (5-3), Philadelphia Eagles (3-4-1)
