NFL Single Game Parlays Week 8: Sixteen Same-Game Slips, Eight Games and the Record

Published October 29, 2026 by Statz NFL.

The same-game parlays the engine has published so far for Week 8: sixteen slips across eight games, from the Titans-Bengals Second Receiver Ceiling at 49.21 to four Patriots-Dolphins long shots, with the model's chance against the price and the honest record of six winners from 103.

Six from 103, and what the slips are

The Single Game Parlays record after Week 7 is six winners from 103 slips, 16.15 points staked and 18.2 returned, 2.05 up. Last week produced two of the six, and the rest of the page lost, which is what a page of long shots does most weeks. Each slip is a script for one game, built from bet365 main lines that are priced individually, so the combined price is their product: a quarterback has a big day and the payoff lives with a second receiver, or a back gets the workload and the touchdown, or both teams throw. The model prices each script against the market's, and the stake is a tenth to a quarter of a point.

This week the page has sixteen slips across eight games, built so far; the Friday and Saturday builds can add or change them, and the prices move between now and kick-off. The standalone games have their own previews: Thursday, Sunday night and Monday night.

The 6pm games: Titans-Bengals, Vikings-Lions, Browns-Steelers and Colts-Jaguars

The widest gap on the page is the Titans-Bengals Second Receiver Ceiling at 49.21: Dohnte Meyers over 29.5 receiving yards at 3.70 and over 2.5 receptions at 3.50 with Joe Burrow over 324.5 passing yards at 3.80, the model at 10.0% against 2.0% implied, 0.15 of a point. The same game has a Workhorse Back at 17.30, Chase Brown over 5.5 receptions at 5.00 and over 53.5 rushing yards with Burrow under 278.5 passing yards, 7.0% against 5.8%, a quarter. Minnesota at Detroit has a Workhorse Back at 13.35 built on Jahmyr Gibbs: to score at 1.34, over 5.5 receptions at 2.88, over 83.5 rushing yards, with Jared Goff under 263.5 passing yards, 10.6% against 7.5%, a quarter. Gibbs is questionable with a shoulder, so that slip depends on the inactives.

Cleveland at Pittsburgh has three slips, all leaning on Deshaun Watson over 249.5 passing yards at 3.25: the One Passing Game at 89.59 (Harold Fannin Jr. to score at 3.90 and over 35.5 receiving yards, KC Concepcion over 69.5 receiving yards at 3.80; 6.4% against 1.1%, a tenth of a point), the Second Receiver Ceiling at 53.24 (Fannin to score and over 59.5 receiving yards at 4.20; 6.5% against 1.9%, 0.15) and the Chase Script at 92.93 (Concepcion to score at 3.70 and over 59.5 receiving yards, Jaylen Warren over 79.5 rushing yards at 2.78; 3.1% against 1.1%, a tenth). Indianapolis at Jacksonville has one, a Chase Script at 113.53: Bhayshul Tuten to score at 1.76 and over 99.5 rushing yards at 5.10, Josh Downs over 32.5 receiving yards and Daniel Jones over 274.5 passing yards at 6.80, 4.3% against 0.9%, a tenth.

The late games: Chargers-Rams, Chiefs-Broncos and Patriots-Dolphins

Los Angeles hosts the Chargers with two slips. The One Passing Game at 28.80 is Matthew Stafford over 247.5 passing yards at 1.86, Puka Nacua over 124.5 receiving yards at 3.70 and Tyler Higbee over 29.5 receiving yards and over 3.5 receptions at 2.25, 9.1% against 3.5%, 0.15 of a point; the Throwing Festival at 23.81 has Justin Herbert over 194.5 passing yards with Stafford, and Colby Parkinson to score at 3.70 and over 25.5 receiving yards, 8.2% against 4.2%, a quarter. Parkinson is questionable with a rib injury.

Kansas City at Denver has a Second Receiver Ceiling at 57.41, Travis Kelce to score at 3.20 and over 79.5 receiving yards at 4.60 with Patrick Mahomes over 274.5 passing yards at 3.90, 6.2% against 1.7%, 0.15, and a Workhorse Back at 20.31 on Kenneth Walker III: to score at 1.68, over 5.5 receptions at 6.50 and over 86.5 rushing yards, 8.2% against 4.9%, a quarter. The model has this game at 44 points against a market of 40.5, which is why both slips lean on Kansas City passing.

New England at Miami has four slips, all long: the One Passing Game at 91.49 (A.J. Brown over 79.5 receiving yards at 3.90, Hunter Henry over 69.5 at 5.10, Drake Maye over 299.5 passing yards at 4.60; 6.3% against 1.1%), the Second Receiver Ceiling at 119.65 (Henry, Malik Willis over 249.5 passing yards at 5.10, Maye; 4.2% against 0.8%), the Throwing Festival at 138.53 and the Blowup Total at 148.15, each a tenth of a point. Brown is questionable with an ankle, and the slips that need him need him.

One Passing Game, LAC @ LAR — Stafford o247.5 pass yds 1.86 · Nacua o124.5 rec yds 3.70 · Higbee o29.5 rec yds 1.86 · Higbee o3.5 rec 2.25 — at 28.80 — The model has the Rams by ten, so this is the favoured script. Game preview
Workhorse Back, KC @ DEN — Walker TD 1.68 · Walker o5.5 rec 6.50 · Walker o86.5 rush yds 1.86 — at 20.31 — A back who scores, runs and catches on a model total of 44. Game preview

Sunday night: Eagles at Commanders

The one Sunday-night slip is a Blowup Total at 121.86: Stefon Diggs and DeVonta Smith to score at 2.90 and 3.20, Jayden Daniels over 224.5 passing yards at 2.68 and Tanner McKee over 274.5 passing yards at 4.90, the model at 3.0% against 0.8%, a tenth of a point. It needs two quarterbacks to throw in a game with a total of 40.5, and McKee over 274.5 is the leg that does the damage. Diggs is questionable with a hand and Smith with a hamstring.

What to actually do with this

The slips are 2.4 points of stakes across the sixteen. Treat them as lottery tickets with a stated edge, because that is what they are: the model has every one above its implied price, and the record says six in 103 land. If you want one, the 49.21 Titans-Bengals ceiling has the widest gap on the page and the 28.80 Chargers-Rams script has the shortest price among the ones the model likes by more than five points. Check the injury table before you place any of them; a leg that sits voids the slip down to a shorter price.
