NFL Picks Week 6

Week 6 NFL Picks


Green Bay (-15) over St. Louis
  • A 15 point spread is extremely high for the NFL and usually when it's that high, you always pick the underdog.  Having said that, I'm going with Green Bay because they're at home and St. Louis is on the road.  Aaron Rodgers for 3 TD's and 400 yards is a staple of the NFL sunday. 
  • Prediction: Green Bay, 35-14
Chicago (-3) over Minnesota

Jacksonville (+12) over Pittsburgh
  • The Jaguars are the only team to beat the Steelers at Heinz Field twice in one year (2007).  That will never happen again, but I'm going with the Jaguars against a high spread.
  • Prediction: Pittsburgh, 27-17
Carolina (+3.5) over Atlanta

Philadelphia (-1.5) over Washington
  • If the Eagles are who we thought they were, they win this game by double digits and silence their overwhelming amount of critics.  With a team this talented, starting 1-5 would be downright baffling.  Look for Desean Jackson to have a big first series and set the tone for the Eagles.
  • Prediction: Philly, 35-24
Indianoplis (+7) over Cincinnati

San Francisco (+4.5) over Detroit
  • Somehow, someway, this is the most intresting game of the week.  Detroit is 5-0 for the time since the Civil War and San Francisco is having a revival under Jim Harbaugh and that great defense.  Lions havn't played a great defense yet and in the NFL, you have to lose eventually.
  • Prediction: San Francisco, 20-13

NY Giants (-3) over Buffalo
  • Giants come alive and so does their running game.  200 yards for Jacobs and Bradshaw combined.  Buffalo keeps it close, but comes up short
  • Prediction: Giants, 21-17

Baltimore (-7.5) over Houston

Oakland (-7) over Cleveland
  • Oakland at home still riding from last weeks win.  Al Davis will be on their minds again.
  • Predicition: Oakland, 28-17
New England (-7) over Dallas

New Orleans (-4.5) over Tampa Bay

NY Jets (-7) over Miami
  • Tease this game and it's the lock of the week.  Matt Moore vs. Derelle Revis equals a Jets Blowout.
  • Prediciton: Jets, 24-3
