Looks like nobody started the Week 9 thread yet, so I'll get it going.
The Sunday night game looks like the best one on the schedule, with the Raiders and Broncos both 6-2 heading into a game at Oakland.
Pittsburgh at Baltimore might be the best of the early games. Both teams had byes last week and both seemed to need the time off. The Ravens lost four in a row after a 3-0 start and the Steelers had dropped their last two. The Steelers also got a little healthier, with Ben Roethlisberger, Cameron Heyward and Marcus Gilbert returning to practice Monday.
The Steelers have not looked good on the road, but perhaps a return to health will be enough to turn things around. The Ravens certainly haven't looked good over the past month.
Steelers' Gilbert to Cam: 'Stop complaining'
Speaking of Gilbert, he called out Cam Newton for complaining about getting hit. While Newton does seem to take quite a few illegal hits with no call, Gilbert has a point. Roethlisberger also takes a heck of a beating and you don't see him asking to chat with Roger Goodell about it.
Eagles at Giants also looks like a good one. Both teams are 4-3, two games behind the Cowboys.
Buffalo at Seattle could be a decent Monday night game, but it's not the most attractive matchup.
The rest of the Sunday schedule is as follows.
Dallas at Cleveland
Detroit at Minnesota
Jets at Miami
Jacksonville at Kansas City
New Orleans at San Francisco
Carolina at Los Angeles
Tennessee at San Diego
Indianapolis at Green Bay
