Prisco is 73-49 in straight-up picks this season.
Chiefs (-1)
Prisco has the Kansas City Chiefs bouncing back in Germany against the Miami Dolphins after last week’s 24-9 loss to the Denver Broncos. “The Chiefs are coming off a loss at Denver, one where the offense didn’t look that good,” he wrote.
“Miami impressed in beating New England, but they haven’t beaten a team with a winning record yet. This is a big chance. I just don’t think it will happen. Patrick Mahomes will get the best of the Dolphins defense as he gets back going right after his flu game last week.”
Prisco’s final score is 30-26, Chiefs.

Bengals (-1)
Additionally, the CBS Sports NFL analyst predicts the Cincinnati Bengals will win at home over the Buffalo Bills. Last season’s Week 17 matchup was canceled after Bills safety Damar Hamlin collapsed on the field in the opening quarter. During the 2022 AFC Divisional Playoffs, the Bengals won 27-10 at home against Buffalo.
“The Bengals have come back to life after the slow start due to Joe Burrow’s calf injury early in the season, which really impacted the offense,” Prisco wrote.
“Buffalo played looser against the Bucs last week, and they have three extra days of rest. This will be a fun offensive game that will go right down to the wire. It’s tight, but the Bengals will win it late.”
Prisco has Cincinnati winning 31-30 over Buffalo in Week 9’s Sunday Night Football.
Chargers (-3.5)
For his third pick, Prisco has the Los Angeles Chargers winning on the road over the New York Jets on Monday Night Football. “The Chargers seemed to right things against the Bears, but this is a long trip against a good defensive team,” he wrote.
“That will cause problems for Justin Herbert. The Chargers’ defense has been bad for most of the season, but they showed some improvement last week. Look for the Chargers to come in here and get the best of it as Herbert does enough to pull it out late.”
Prisco’s pick is Chargers, 21-17.
