We’ve reached trade deadline Tuesday of what’s been a rollercoaster NFL season.
Multiple teams have started selling off talent, while surging contenders strengthen their lineups for the home stretch.
Injuries are also piling up as the Rams lost star receiver Puka Nacua to IR, and Rhamondre Stevenson’s absence from the Patriots’ offense adds to their long list of ailments.
In Week 9, our expert Erich Richter nailed the Jaguars to win big over the Ravens on “Thursday Night Football.”
And despite a late near-meltdown, the Cowboys escaped Indianapolis with a win.
Now, we move on to a fresh slate of games.
Last week’s favorites went a pristine 14-1, with the lone exception being the Patriots falling to the Packers, who will be one of our best picks for Week 10.
NFL Week 10 Survivor best picks
Packers -3.5 (-110, FanDuel) vs. Vikings
Behind Jordan Love and their dynamic receiving tandem, the Packers systematically dismantled a New England secondary that ranked eighth in pass DVOA before Week 9.
Love firmly inserted his name into the MVP race, connecting on 23-of-29 throws for 327 yards and three scores, showcasing his deep-ball accuracy and ability to deliver under pressure—something he’ll need against Minnesota’s heavy blitz rate.
In addition to completing six passes of 20-plus yards, Love also went near-perfect (10-of-11) for 146 yards and a touchdown against the blitz, according to Pro Football Focus.
The Packers defense did its job, forcing Drake Maye into three interceptions and, since Week 4, has ranked third in EPA per snap.
With the Vikings’ quarterback situation in shambles, they worked the phone lines and brought in Kirk Cousins, which is good news for Justin Jefferson and Co.
However, this Green Bay team is rolling and has extra motivation from a Week 1 loss to Minnesota.
Betting on the NFL?
Bills -7.5 (-111, bet365) vs. Jets
Gang Green is riding a four-game losing streak after being flat-out embarrassed by the Chiefs at Arrowhead last Sunday.
The team was reluctant to entertain trade talks involving Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson.
But with headlines swirling in the locker room, the division-leading Bills are now coming to town.
The Jets’ paltry rush defense (ranked 22nd in EPA) could not contain Kenneth Walker III and must now contend with James Cook, who’s scored a touchdown in seven straight games.
Josh Allen is 11-4 against the Jets, including five straight wins. The Bills’ last three victories have come by a combined 73 points.
If you’ve been saving them for a rainy day, congratulations.
