NFL odds: Week 9 winners picks and schedule

SB Nation

The NFL’s Week 9 schedule started with the Miami Dolphins losing to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday. It now moves on to the Sunday slate of games, with 12 games on tap. Meanwhile, the Cleveland Browns,

New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have the week off as they all reach their bye week.

The highlight of the schedule is a late-afternoon matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills. Presumed to be the favorites for the AFC Championship game again this year, both clubs are looking up at other teams leading their respective divisions – the Chiefs are a game behind the Denver Broncos in the AFC West, while Buffalo is a half-game behind the New England Patriots in the AFC East. A win today could be the catalyst for either the Chiefs or Bills to make a run in the second half of the year.
