Microsoft Cortana has made its picks for Week 9 of the NFL

Published by Business Insider on Wed, 02 Nov 2016


Microsoft Cortanaavirtual assistant picking the winner of every NFL game on Bing went 8-4in Week 8,bringing its overall record on the season to 64-54 (54%).Week 8 was Cortana's best week of the season, though still quite a bit worse than we were used to in seasons past. Along with not predicting a tie between the Redskins and Bengals in London (and really, who can blame it), Cortana also missed by picking the Seahawks, Bucs, Colts, and Vikings.Picking the Colts over the Chiefs puzzled us at the time, and the Buccaneers came close to the win. Meanwhile, the Vikings and Seahawks losses were both legitimate upsets.This week, Cortana and Vegas arein complete agreement. Still, we're circling a few games on our calendar: Eagles at Giants (Cortana likes the Giants), Steelers and Ravens (Cortana likes the Ravens), and Broncos at Raiders (Cortana likes the Broncos).As always, Cortana only picks the outright winner of each game. It does not make picks against the spread, though we like to include the point spread (in parentheses, courtesy of Vegas Insider ) for comparison. You can find Cortana's predictions by searching "NFL schedule" on Bing (picks made prior to the Thursday night game).Atlanta Falcons (-3.5) at Tampa Bay BuccaneersFalcons 55% chance to winJacksonville Jaguars at Kansas City Chiefs (-9)Chiefs 86% chance to winDetroit Lions at Minnesota Vikings (-6)Vikings 72% chance to winPhiladelphia Eagles at New York Giants (-2.5)Giants 52% chance to winDallas Cowboys (-7) at Cleveland BrownsCowboys 77% chance to winNew York Jets at Miami Dolphins (-3.5)Dolphins 69% chance to winPittsburgh Steelers at Baltimore Ravens (-3)Ravens 52% chance to winNew Orleans Saints (-3.5) at San Francisco 49ersSaints 67% chance to winCarolina Panthers (-3) at Los Angeles RamsPanthers 60% chance to winIndianapolis Colts at Green Bay Packers (-7)Packers 70% chance to winTennessee Titans at San Diego Chargers (-5)Chargers 53% chance to winDenver Broncos (PK) at Oakland RaidersBroncos 53% chance to winBuffalo Bills at Seattle Seahawks (-7)Seahawks 55% chance to winSEE ALSO:NFL POWER RANKINGS: Where all 32 teams stand going into Week 9Join the conversation about this storyNOW WATCH: A 48-year-old just broke the speed record for the Appalachian Trail
