Hopefully you paid attention and played some or all of our Week 8 parlay card. But that’s in the past and it’s time to focus on the future.

After looking at Tipico Sportsbook’s NFL Week 9 odds, here is the latest “Let’s make some money” NFL parlay bet to cash in on among SportbookWire’s NFL expert picks and predictions.

Some things are a given. Taxes, death and of course, Andy Reid off a bye.

With a lot of close games this week, a parlay was difficult to find. But, alas, I have a duty to help you make some money and this is exactly what I plan to do. So, let us make some together and help with those holiday bills.

NFL Week 9: Let’s make some money parlay

Odds provided by Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Wednesday at 5:51 p.m. ET. All games Sunday and ET unless noted.

Leg 1: Titans at Chiefs TOTAL TDs OVER 5.5 (+112) – 8:20 p.m. (NBC)

Kansas City coach Andy Reid off a bye week is a sure thing. In his lengthy career, Reid-coached teams are 19-3 when coming off a bye week. This game against the Titans will be at home and another victory should be procured.

The 12.5-point line is a bit high though. For this reason, I will count on an offensive explosion from both the Chiefs and Titans.

The Chiefs are coming off a 44-23 victory over the 49ers in their last game. The Titans, much like the 49ers, will want to be a run-first team. It did not work for the 49ers, and it will not work for the Titans.

The Titans will be forced to use QB Ryan Tannehill in the pass game. This could lead to 1 or more turnovers. Giving Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes a short field is not a good plan for any team.

Not only will the Chiefs win, but they will score several TDs. The Titans will score, too, in order to keep pace. Titans RB Derrick Henry, against the Chiefs defense, is good bet and if Tannehill even gets 1 passing TD, I like this to go Over easily.

Leg 2: DOLPHINS -4.5 (-110) at Bears – 1 p.m. (CBS)

The NFL record for 160-yard receiving games in a season is 6. Miami WR Tyreek Hill already has 4 through 8 games. QB Tua Tagovailoa and Hill have a connection this season, and with WR Jaylen Waddle being no second fiddle, the Dolphins offense is clicking.

After falling into a 21-0 hole to the Lions in Week 8, the Dolphins mounted a comeback and won the game 31-27. The Bears won’t score 21 in this game. Therefor a major comeback will not be needed. Instead, Miami will use the points to pull away from Chicago, which after trading LB Roquan Smith and DE Robert Quinn, is far less ferocious on defense.

If the Dolphins contain Bears QB Justin Fields in the run game, this will be an easy cover.

Leg 3: Panthers at Bengals OVER 42-5 (-112) – 1 p.m. (FOX)

Cincinnati is coming off a lackluster showing in a 32-13 loss at Cleveland Monday night. A lot of this had to do with the Bengals’ inability to move the ball thanks to only having 5 days to get a game plan together after learning that stud WR Ja’Marr Chase would be out with a hip injury.

With another week to plan and going against a weak Panthers team, the Bengals will be able to get WRs Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd more involved. They will also be able to get RB Joe Mixon more involved after he had only 27 rushing yards on 8 carries Monday against the Browns.

The Panthers have been playing much better since coach Matt Rhule was let go after Week 5. Interim coach Steve Wilks has this team playing hard. Even without RB Christian McCaffrey (now with the 49ers), the Panthers managed to put up 34 points in a 3-point overtime loss at the Atlanta Falcons last week. Had K Eddy Piñeiro not missed an extra point with 12 seconds left in regulation and a FG in overtime, the Panthers would have won.

I do not care who wins or loses this game. I just want points. The Panthers’ 34 points against the Falcons comes 1 week after the Bengals put up 35 against the Falcons. Both offenses will score. Neither defense will get many stops. Look for a lot of points in this one. 42.5 is far too low. I’m also willing to back the Over up to 45.

Parlay payout: Bet $10 to win $76.61 (profit $66.61).

Leg 4-*: Chargers at FALCONS +3.5 (-117) – 1 p.m. (FOX)

*-If you want to add a 4th play to this parlay:

The Falcons do one thing very well. They run the ball. The Chargers defense allows the most yards per carry (5.7) in the league and it will be sliced up by the Falcons run game of RB Tyler Allgeier and QB Marcus Mariota.

The Falcons will shorten the game by having long extended drives. The Over/Under for this game is 50 (O: -108 | U: -112). I do not see it getting this high. The total should be lower.

After covering the spread in the first 5 games of the season, Atlanta has failed to do so in the last 2 games. It will get back on track this week and cover the +3.5 (117). 

Parlay payout: Bet $10 to win $142.09 (profit $132.09).
