Week 7 of the NFL season is in the books and what a week it was. There was plenty of drama across the slate, including a pretty significant win for the Lions over the Buccaneers in a statement game on Monday Night Football. While I was unable to cash in on my Week 7 mega parlay, I did cash back in Week 1 at +2512 odds! I’ve gotten within one or two legs of cashing these massive parlays in recent weeks, so let’s make it a second winner this week! With the Week 8 Sunday slate on the horizon, let’s get right into my NFL Week 8 mega parlay that pays out at over 19/1 odds at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Bills -7 (-115)
Giants vs Eagles over 43.5 (-118)
Bears ML (+132)
Cowboys +3.5 (-115)
Colts alternate team total over 26.5 (-285)
NFL Week 8 parlay odds: +1906
Buffalo Bills -7 over Carolina Panthers (-115)
Following a 4-0 start to the season, the Bills have fallen on hard times of late, dropping back-to-back games to the Patriots and Falcons. However, this week’s matchup against the Panthers has all the makings of a bounce back effort from the Bills coming off a bye week and stewing on those 2 losses. Josh Allen and the Buffalo offense should get back on track against a Panthers defense that is among the lesser units in football against the pass, sitting at 21st in EPA per play and 23rd in EPA per pass. On the other side, while the Panthers have been playing well of late, this is still a Carolina team that has struggled when stepping up in class this season. Look for the Bills to win by margin in this one.

New York Giants vs Philadelphia Eagles Over 43.5 (-118)
Both of these teams just played a high-scoring game a few weeks ago, and we can expect a similar outcome on Sunday, especially considering how each team looked against their most recent opponents. The Giants racked up 32 points against one of the best defenses in the NFL in the Denver Broncos, while Philadelphia was able to turn in its best game of the season offensively in a win over the Vikings a week ago. Given the fact that the Giants defense is one of the lesser units in the NFC against the pass and that Jalen Hurts and company finally appeared to get back on track in Week 7, it wouldn’t shock me if the Eagles put up a big number here and sent this one over the total.

Chicago Bears ML over Baltimore Ravens (+130)
This is one of the uglier games on Sunday’s card, but I’m of the opinion that the visitors have some value now that Lamar Jackson has been ruled out of this contest. Tyler Huntley will get the ball instead, and while the longtime backup quarterback has proven to be a valuable commodity within this Ravens offense over the years, he still is a massive downgrade from the 2-time MVP under center. On the other side, the Bears have won 4 straight games, even if a few of those wins were pretty uninspiring efforts. With that said, Chicago is the team playing better football at the moment, so we’ll take the plus money and add it to our parlay.Â
Dallas Cowboys +3.5 vs Denver Broncos (-115)
Surprisingly, the market continues to disrespect the Cowboys, and I’m more than happy to take advantage. Dallas is undoubtedly one of the elite offenses in the NFL, with the Cowboys sitting inside the top 5 in EPA per play, success rate and EPA per pass. Dak Prescott is playing at an MVP level and there isn’t much that defenses can do to slow down this attack, as the Cowboys have scored 27 or more points in 5 of their last 6 contests. Conversely, the Broncos offense has been a complete no-show in the first 3 quarters of their games this season, with Denver struggling mightily to score outside of the 4th quarter. If the Cowboys can get out to an early lead, they are certainly live to win this game, much less cover the number.

Indianapolis Colts alternate team total over 26.5 (-285)
To close out our mega parlay, let’s take the Colts to clear an alternate team total over. This is a nice anchor leg for this parlay, especially since Indianapolis is taking on a hapless Titans team that has struggled to stop any competent offense this season. It just so happens that the Colts are the top offense in the game at the moment, with Daniel Jones and company running roughshot over plenty of defenses to this point. Given the fact that this game could end up being a bit more of a grinder with Tennessee’s offense not doing much on the other side, I’ll knock down the team total from 30.5 to a more manageable number and air on the safe side for our final leg.
