Anytime TD picks: Three wide receivers, including red-zone-target hog Davante Adams, are the selections for Jordan Horrobin’s Week 9 TD picks.
Prop bets: Allen tends to take matters into his own hands when he faces the Chiefs. With that in mind, a plus-money price for him to score has Horrobin’s attention.
Chiefs vs. Bills SGP: Buffalo has dominated the regular-season meetings between these teams, but Perri doesn’t care. Read why he’s backing Kansas City to win in this +360 wager.

Cardinals vs. Cowboys MNF picks: Dallas’ offence is flying high, and Perri thinks that will lead to a win and cover for the Cowboys.
Cardinals vs. Cowboys MNF SGP: Dallas can score, but its defence is also one of the worst in the NFL. Psihogios expects a close game and a big performance from Marvin Harrison Jr. in his +310 ticket.
