Today's show: Week 8 winners and losers, plus full recapIt's Monday, which can only mean one thing: I stayed up until 3 a.m. last night recording a podcast with Will Brinson and Ryan Wilson that touched on everything you need to know about Week 8, and let me just say, it's probably for the best that you listen. We covered all 13 games from Sunday, which means we likely spent some time talking about your favorite team.One thing we do every week is hand out our weekly winners and losers from Sunday's action. Here's a look at who made our list. Ryan WilsonWinner: John Lynch. The 49ers GM took a huge gamble last week when he decided to make a trade for Christian McCaffrey and that gamble is already paying off. Lynch looks like a genius after McCaffrey's performance on Sunday in a 31-14 win over the Rams where he became just the fourth player since 1970 to record a rushing TD, a receiving TD and a pa sing TD in the same game. McCaffrey finished with 94 rushing yards, 55 receiving yards and 34 pa sing yards.Loser: Zach Wilson.The ' 5-2 start could end up going down drain if Wilson keeps playing the way he did on Sunday against the . The second-year quarterback threw three interceptions and was a big reason why New York lost 22-17. It's not clear if Robert Saleh would consider a QB change, but he did bump up from No. 3 QB to No. 2, which might be his way of sending a me sage to Wilson. If you want to know why Wilson is struggling, you can .Will BrinsonWinner: Arthur Smith.Going into the season, some people thought the had one of the worst rosters in the NFL. If that's the case, then Smith should win coach of the decade because he has his team in first place after eight weeks.Loser: and .The could have been in first place if not for these two. Moore was almost the hero on Sunday after catching a 62-yard TD with 12 seconds left (You ). However, Moore immediately had his hero status revoked because he got flagged for exce sive celebration, which moved Pineiro's extra point back 15 yards. Not only did Pineiro mi s the 48-yard extra point, but he also mi sed a 32-yard field goal that would have won the game in overtime and the Panthers ended up losing 37-34. John BreechWinner: Nathaniel Hackett. If the had lost on Sunday, there's a 50% chance the team would have just left him in London, but he didn't have to worry about that because the Broncos were able to pull out the 21-17 win against Jacksonville. The most encouraging part for Hackett is that the offense took a small step forward and if it continues to improve, the Broncos could sneak into the playoff race.Loser: Josh McDaniels.I don't want to say the Raiders did a 24-hour bender on Bourbon Street before their 24-0 lo s to the , but that's what it looked like. The Raiders were so bad that Mark Davis , which doesn't seem like a good thing. McDaniels' first season with the Raiders has slowly turned into a disaster.Not only did we list our winners and losers, but we also recapped every game from Sunday. To listen to today's episode, . You can . 2. Week 8 grades: Raiders get an 'F' for ugly lo s, get a 'C' as second half struggles continueEvery week I team up with six of my colleagues here at CBSSports.com to hand out grades, and this week, the Raiders got the lowest grade of any team in our imaginary football school.Here's a look at the grades from two notable games that were played Sunday:Saints 24-0 over Raiders ()Raiders grade: F.The Raiders were so bad in this game that giving them an 'F' is an insult to the letter 'F.' got benched in the fourth quarter on a day where the offense didn't reach Saints territory a single time while he was in the game. The Raiders' offensive failures led to the team's first scorele s game since 2014. This was a nightmare lo s for a team that's now 2-6 and Josh McDaniels' first season on the job is quickly spiraling out of control.Saints grade: A+.The Saints ended their two-game losing streak and they did it by destroying the Raiders in every way that one NFL team can destroy another team. The defense surrendered le s than 200 yards while pitching a shutout for just the fourth time since 2000. Offensively, had his way with the Raiders. Not only did the Saints running back rush for 62 yards and a touchdown, but he also added 96 receiving yards and two touchdown catches. The Saints' 3-5 record might be ugly right now, but the good news for New Orleans is that ugly can win the NFC South title. This was the Saints team everyone thought they were going to see when the season started and if they keep playing like this, there's no Tommy Edman Jersey reason they can't win the division.Dolphin 31-27 over Lions () grade: B.The Dolphins found themselves in an early 14-0 hole, but they were able to dig themselves out of it thanks to the dynamic duo of (188 receiving yards) and (106 yards and two touchdowns), who combined for 294 receiving yards. The two made life much easier for Tua Tagaovailoa, who targeted them with 23 of his 36 pa ses (Tua threw for 382 yards and three touchdowns). The Dolphins were nearly unstoppable on third down, converting 8 of 12 attempts, which included two different third-and-13 conversions. One reason the Dolphins were able to win this shootout is because their defense actually showed up for the second half. After surrendering 27 points in the first half, the Dolphins pitched a shutout over the final two quarters. This team is now rolling heading into November.Lions grade: C.This game looked like it was going to turn into a blowout win for the Lions after they took an early 14-0 lead, but for the third straight week, this team forgot how to play football in the second half. After scoring 27 points in the first half, the Lions got shut out in the second half, which continues an ugly trend for the Lions: They've now been outscored 48-0 in the second half over the past three weeks. Losing close gams to good teams was good enough for last year's Lions, but it's not good enough for this year's group. Dan Campbell needs to figure out to get his team playing two good halves.As for the other 22 grades we handed out on Sunday, . 3. NFL Week 8: Overreaction or realityEveryone on the internet loves to overreact to things, and that's especially true when we're talking about the the NFL.

The 49ers running back caught a touchdown pa s, threw a touchdown pa s and scored a rushing TD, making him just the fourth player since the 1970 merger to have a pa sing TD, rushing TD and receiving TD in the same game.

Although Kamara didn't match McCaffrey's trifecta, he did record a rushing TD and a receiving TD in the same game for the 10th time in his career. That's the third most in NFL history, trailing only Marshall Faulk (15) and Brian Westbrook (12). Fittingly, McCaffrey also recorded his 10th game with a receiving and rushing TD on Sunday, which means the two guys are tied in the record book.Happy Birthday .The Falcons QB celebrated his 29th birthday on Sunday (Oct. 30) and he did it in grand fashion. Mariota threw three TD pa ses AND led a game-winning drive to become just the third player in NFL history to accomplish those things on his birthday. Warren Moon did it in 1990 and accomplished it in 2015.Tyreek on verge of breaking a single-season record. It's not every day you see a player get close to breaking a single-season record after just eight weeks, but Hill is getting close. The Dolphins receiver finished with 188 yards, marking the fourth time this year he's topped 160 yards. That's tied for the second-most in NFL history trailing only Roy Green, who topped 160 yards a total of five times in 1984. Hill could break this season-long record by Week 10 if he has two big games over the next two weeks. need to feed .The Cowboys running back has turned into a secret weapon of sorts for Dallas. Pollard had 15 touches for 147 total yards in Dallas' 49-29 win over the and the Cowboys are now 8-0 all-time when he gets at least 15 touches in a game. Not only that, but the Cowboys have averaged 37 points per game in those wins. Maybe they need to give the Pollard the ball more often (). makes Eagles history.The Eagles quarterback has won 10 consecutive starts, which is the longest streak in franchise history. Before beating the Steelers on Sunday, Hurt had been in a tie with several other quarterbacks, including Norm Van Brocklin, Donovan Trevor Rosenthal Jersey McNabb, and .If you see any other fun facts, . 5. Monday preview: Prepping you for at If there's a Halloween game in the NFL, you can bet the Bengals will be playing in it. With orange and black serving as the unofficial colors or Halloween, the NFL clearly loves scheduling the Bengals for this holiday. Tonight's game will mark the fifth time since 2000 that the Bengals have played on Halloween. To put that in perspective, the Browns will be playing on Halloween for just the second time since 2000.

Ending that streak won't be easy and that's because they'll be playing this game without .My good buddy Jared Dubin wrote our deep-dive preview for this game here at CBSSports.com, and here's how he sees the game playing out: Why the Bengals can win:Even with Ja'Marr Chase out, the Bengals should still be able to move the ball through the air thanks to the presence of and , who both rank in the top-20 in receiving yards this year. If the Bengals air attack gets bottled up, then they can turn to , who should be able to gash up a Browns' defense that's surrendering more than 135 yards per game on the ground. Basically, the Bengals offense might not take a huge step back just because Chase is out.

Although he did mi s one game of those four games, he rushed for a total of 319 yards on 45 carries in the other three games combined.

You can check out Sullivan's , but if you don't feel like clicking over, here's one prop from both of us for tonight's game.ONE PROP Tyler LIKES: OVER 0.5 interceptions (+118):ONE PROP I LIKE: OVER 1.5 field goals (+120) or OVER 5.5 points (-135):I was going to take an Evan McPherson prop, but those haven't been released yet, so I'm going to ride Cade York here. The Browns kicker is averaging 2.3 field goal attempts per game this year and I think that number might actually go up tonight since the Bengals have the second-best red zone defense in the entire NFL. If the Browns reach the red zone, there's a good chance their drive will stall, which will lead to field goals for York. I like both of these props, but I like OVER 1.5 field goals more since the value is much better.Finally, if you're wondering who we're picking, here's who we have tonight in a game where the Bengals are currently favored by three points:Dubin's pick: Bengals 26-17 over BrownsSullivan's pick:Bengals 27-24 over BrownsMy pick:Bengals 27-20 over Browns Over , our experts have made a unanimous choice with all eight picking the Bengals to win and cover. 6. Rapid-fire roundup: injures ankleIt's been a busy weekend in the NFL, and since it's nearly impo sible to keep track of everything that happened, I went ahead and put together a roundup for you.Cooper Kupp suffers ankle injury in lo s to 49ers. The Rams season could go from bad to worse if Kupp has to mi s any time.
