NFL Week 9 parlay – Syndication Server

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

It’s on to Week 9 of the 2024 NFL season, and we’re looking to bounce back. We just missed cashing our 3-leg parlay in Week 8 by a single point.

The Green Bay Packers won by only 3 points last Sunday, missing the cover as 4-point favorites against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Packers closed as 3.5-point favorites at some shops, and that means the cover was missed by a half-point by some bettors. That’s even worse.

Not that it matters much, but we did hit the Over (41) in the Carolina Panthers-Denver Broncos game by just a single point, too, and we needed QB Bryce Young and WR Jalen Coker to connect for a TD in the final minute to get the W.

The Pittsburgh Steelers also held on for a 26-18 win/cover as 6-point favorites over the New York Giants on Monday Night Football. If you bet each leg of the parlay individually, then you finished ahead.

Let’s try to get back to our winning ways from Week 7.

After looking at BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL Week 9 odds, here is our “Winner winner chicken dinner” NFL parlay bet to cash in on among SportsbookWire’s NFL expert picks and predictions.

Winner winner chicken dinner NFL parlay

WEEK 9

Odds provided by BetMGM Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list of NFL odds. Lines last updated Saturday at 11:59 a.m. ET. All games Sunday and ET unless noted.

Leg 1: BILLS -6 (-110) vs. Dolphins – 1 p.m. (CBS)

The Buffalo Bills (6-2) host the Miami Dolphins (2-5) for the second meeting between these AFC East rivals.

The Bills rolled to a 31-10 win against the Seattle Seahawks last weekend, and they’ve won back-to-back games by at least 21 points, while winning and covering each of the past 3 outings.

Buffalo went out and acquired WR Amari Cooper, while rookie WR Keon Coleman has been showing dramatic improvement. The Bills are starting to roll and take care of the teams they’re supposed to.

As a favorite, Buffalo is a perfect 5-0 straight up (SU), while covering each of the past 4 after failing to cover in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals as a 7-point favorite.

These teams met in South Florida back on Thursday Night Football in Week 2, and that’s the game QB Tua Tagovailoa was knocked out of due to a concussion. Buffalo rolled to a 31-10 victory as a 2.5-point underdog. Tagovailoa just returned to the lineup in last week’s game after a 5-week absence, but he and the Dolphins lost to the visiting Cardinals.

The Bills are playing good football, while the Dolphins look like a rudderless ship. As long as this stays under a flat 7 points, bang the Bills in the first end of the parlay.

BACK BILLS -6 (-110) to begin our Week 9 three-leg parlay.

Leg 2: SAINTS -7 (-115) at Panthers – 1 p.m. (CBS)

The New Orleans Saints (2-5) visit the Carolina Panthers (1-6) for the second and final meeting between these NFC South rivals.

The Saints pounded the Panthers back in Week 1 by a 47-10 score, easily covering the 3.5-point spread as the Over (41.5) cashed.

QB Derek Carr started that game, throwing for 200 yards and 3 TDs. He was knocked out of the Week 5 game against the Kansas City Chiefs due to an oblique injury and missed 3 games. He is expected to return in Week 9, much to the dismay of the Panthers.

QB Bryce Young started that Week 1 rout, and he was benched in Week 3. However, last week he returned to starting duties after QB Andy Dalton suffered a sprained thumb in a fender bender. Young did OK in Denver and gets the nod again in Week 9 against the nemesis Saints.

The Saints have won 3 in a row in this series, going 2-0-1 ATS. The Saints have won 3 of the past 5 trips to Charlotte, too, going 2-2-1 ATS. Let’s back Carr and the Saints as they look to rev up the offense after tremendous struggles with QBs Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener under center.

BACK SAINTS -7 (-115) as our middle play.

Leg 3: UNDER 48 (-110) – Lions at Packers – 4:25 p.m (FOX)

The weather forecast calls for temperatures in the low 50s with an 80% chance of precipitation and winds of 14-17 mph, with gusts to 20-25 mph. We’ll get a steady rain throughout the game.

With such an ugly weather forecast, we should get a ground-based attack from both the Detroit Lions (6-1) and the Packers (6-2). Just double-check the weather forecast closer to kickoff Sunday before finalizing your wager.

Add in the fact Packers QB Jordan Love (groin) suffered a groin injury last week, and he is a question mark for Sunday. With rain in the forecast and a slick surface, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the Packers play it very safely, rather than risking an aggravation of Love’s injury. The possibility of QB Malik Willis starting makes the Under look that much more attractive.
