NFL Week 8 Picks: Baltimore Ravens and Teams That Will Secure Bounce Back Wins

Tim DanielsOct 25, 2011

There are several upsets throughout the NFL in any given week. For the teams that come up on the losing end of those games, the most important thing is bouncing back the very next week with a win to get back on track. Here are three teams that will do just that in Week 8.

Detroit Lions

Detroit's tremendous 5-0 start has suddenly become a 5-2 start and the Lions have fallen back to the pack. Back-to-back home losses to San Francisco and Atlanta have left the league's most surprising team reeling and in desperate need of a win before its bye week.

Lucky, a trip to the Mile-High City to face off with Tim Tebow's Denver Broncos provides a great opportunity to get back in the win column. Lost in the commotion of last week's comeback victory was the fact Tebow struggled for three quarters and needed a late rally to defeat the lowly Miami Dolphins.

Prediction: Lions by 10

Tennessee Titans

Coming off a bye with the chance to stretch their division lead to 1.5 games, the Titans laid an egg against the Houston Texans. With Houston seemingly finding its stride, Tennessee needs to right the ship quickly to avoid being left in the dust.

Chris Johnson continues to struggle mightily. The running back is averaging less than three yards per carry. Perhaps the dreadful Indianapolis Colts run defense will cure his problems. Regardless, the Titans should roll past the winless Colts.

Prediction: Titans by seven

Baltimore Ravens

What happened on Monday Night Football was shocking. The Ravens offense had one of the league's worst showings of the season and it allowed the Jacksonville Jaguars to pull off the upset. Practice isn't going to be any fun this week, to say the least.

Baltimore should be able to bounce back against the Arizona Cardinals, who haven't picked up a road win yet this season. However, now that the tape is out on how to slow down the Ravens offense, things are going to get a lot tougher moving forward.

Prediction: Ravens by 13
