NFL WEEK 6 – Predictions (Projected odds makers @ Oct.10.2019 – 12:00PM EST) 

Bye Week: Buffalo, Chicago, Indianapolis, Oakland

Thursday Oct.10

NY Giants @ New England (Favorite)

Caesars -17

Westgate -17

William Hill -17

Unibet -17

SportSelect -16.5

Kicking off week six, the Patriots host the New York Giants in what has the appearance of being a lopsided event right from jump. While Vegas clearly agrees with that notion, New England is favored by a whopping 17-points.

The Giants will be without Saquon Barkley, Evan Engram, and Sterling Shepard for this matchup, to go along with a Pats defense that has been allowing less than seven points per game. If that wasn’t enough to sway your thought process, Bill Belichick has a supreme record against rookie passers which should again come to fruition. If you wanted easy money, it starts with the Patriots on Thursday.

NE covers the spread @ -17 NYG 14 NE 35 (W)

Sunday Oct.13

Carolina (Favorite) @ Tampa Bay

Caesars -2

The Carolina Panthers take travel to Tampa Bay this week, and again will start Kyle Allen at quarterback without Cam Newton. Christian McCaffrey has been on an absolute tear so far this season, and he will of course be the vocal point for this offensive approach.

The Buccaneers attempted to make a game of last week’s contest with the Saints, but proved talent still remains an issue. Bruce Arians has been rotating the game plans to highlight Chris Godwin one week, then Mike Evans the other week, if history has indication, Evans should get his targets here. While the Bucs can put up points on the board, the Panthers defense has played well enough to cause problems. It’s impossible to go away from McCaffrey and his Panthers.

CAR covers the spread @ -2 CAR 37 TB 26 (W)

Washington (Favorite) @ Miami

Caesars -3.5

Westgate -3.5

The battle of the bottom feeders occurs this week, and we literally don’t know which side to trust. This contest is a complete dart throw as inadequacy on both rosters is prime. While it appears Case Keenum will get the nod to start, having a new coach call the shots will bring with it uncertainty.

The Dolphins are coming off the bye week and should have dissected enough game film to at least keep this competitive. Showing no signs of improvement over the first four weeks, it’s difficult to trust anything coming from Miami. The Skins defense is far better than the Fins offense so we’ll side with that to favor the cause. We will gamble here.

WAS covers the spread @ -3.5 WAS 17 MIA 16 (L)

Philadelphia @ Minnesota (Favorite)

Caesars -3

This could be one of the better contests on Sunday, as the Vikings take their powerful run game against the reinvigorated Eagles. Minnesota still holds a very strong defensive unit that should make it hard on Carson Wentz and company, but given how Kirk Cousins and the pass game hasn’t met up to expectations, we do have concern.

Philly is coming off yet another victory, but this time it was behind the power of their run attack. Jordan Howard and Miles Sanders showed what they could do when provided the opportunity. In hopes to try and predict how both teams will show up for this one, we do have many concerns ahead. The Eagles defense is decimated with injury, while the Vikings offense is stuck in second gear. This one should be very close either way, and we’ll bet on that fact.

MIN doesn’t cover the spread @ -3 PHI 20 MIN 38 (L)

 

Houston @ Kansas City (Favorite)

Caesars -4.5

Westgate -4.5

William Hill -5

Unibet -4.5

SportSelect -4.5

Coming off a massively explosive performance last week, the Houston Texans take their new found talents to Kansas City to face the Chiefs who had a major letdown. As the Chiefs look to get healthy and back on track (Tyreek Hill could suit up), the Texans showed what they could accomplish with fabulous execution.

While the Chiefs still have glaring issues on the defensive side, Houston has proven to also be something of a paradox with their play week-to-week. Deshaun Watson looked perfect a week ago and will hope to step his game up verse Patrick Mahomes. Either way we cut it, this contest could be a score-for-score showdown leaving the last team with the ball as the victor. A field goal will decide this match.

KC doesn’t cover the spread @ -5 HOU 31 KC 24 (W)

New Orleans @ Jacksonville (Favorite)

Caesars -1

Westgate -1.5

William Hill -1

Unibet -1.5

SportSelect -0.5

Seeing this line come from Vegas leaves us with a great level of pause. Understanding that the Saints travel to Florida for this matchup shouldn’t be near enough to swing the opinion that New Orleans is the far superior club, even without Drew Brees. Alvin Kamara will be watching loads of tape on this defense which allowed Christian McCaffrey gash them all over the field.

While the jaguars are much improved offensively, the defense has taken a step back and might again be without the services of Jalen Ramsey, to be determined. Teddy Bridgewater has improved with each passing contest and will muster enough to again keep this winning streak going. This one will be easy money.

JAX doesn’t cover the spread @ -1 NO 13 JAX 6 (W)

Seattle (Favorite) @ Cleveland

Caesars -1.5

Westgate -1

William Hill -1

Unibet -1.5

SportSelect -1.5

Yet another baffling spread coming from the odds makers, Vegas has downgraded the Seahawks and Russell Wilson on the road against the struggling Browns. While yes, we get the fact the Cleveland has offensive weapons for days, they were fully exposed last week by the 49ers. Not only was Baker Mayfield a major issue, his offensive line and the play calling should take big part of the blame.

The Seahawks played to perfection last Thursday Night and will be flying high with confidence. Wilson again proved he is one of the best passers in this league, and teamed with a sound run game, they are extremely tough to stop. At this point we have no choice but to ride the hot hand even with travel miles being a slight sidestep.

CLE doesn’t cover the spread @ -1 SEA 32 CLE 28 (W)

Cincinnati @ Baltimore (Favorite)

Caesars -11

Westgate -11

William Hill -11.5

Unibet -11.5

SportSelect -11.5

This spread feels so much like a trap we can’t seem to get passed it. The Baltimore Ravens haven’t looked as polished these past couple games leaving much to be desired. The high end point totals are contingent on the performance of their quarterback Lamar Jackson. If he isn’t playing at his best, the team seems to struggle as well, there is no in between.

With that said, the Bengals are a team that have no identity and seemingly can’t get anything right on both sides of the ball. The offensive line will yet again struggle to stop the pressure the Ravens will bring, but we feel garbage time points could ruin this spread. Nevertheless, this should be a tune up game for Jackson and his club, we’ll bite here.

BAL covers the spread @ -11.5 CIN 17 BAL 23 (L)

San Francisco @ LA Rams (Favorite)

Caesars -3

Westgate -3

William Hill -3

Unibet -3.5

SportSelect -3.5

Eating our words for suggesting the 49ers aren’t for real, humble pie does taste good here. The 49ers are building themselves into something, but will receive a large test when the face the Rams this weekend. Backed behind a strong run game and a defensive line that should challenge to be the best in the business, San Fran has the makings to be a dominant squad.

The Rams on the other hand seem to be moving in the wrong direction these days, dropping contests that should be well in their grasp. Having yet another divisional showdown this week in hopes to not fall further behind the eight ball, we will see Coach Sean McVay at his best. This will be one of the most entertaining contests of the day, and we’ll stick with the home side here.

LAR covers the spread @ -3 SF 20 LAR 7 (L)

Atlanta (Favorite) @ Arizona

Caesars -2.5

Westgate -2.5

At this point, how can we trust anything that comes from the Atlanta Falcons? They are a hot mess on the defensive side showing great inability to stop the opposition. While their offense continue to amass points on the scoreboard, believing they will have enough to make stops and hold a lead on the road is near impossible.

Granted the Falcons are facing the Cardinals who have major issues themselves, seeing the Falcons on the road is nothing ever positive. With that, this game is played indoors which does bring some positivity to Atlanta. The Cardinals are a team that is still learning behind their rookie passer, and will be in tough to keep up with an offense that can still gain yards and points. We cringe with this selection, but we’ll trust the dirty bird one last time.

ATL covers the spread @ -2  ATL 33 ARZ 34 (L)

Dallas (Favorite) @ NY Jets

Caesars -7

Westgate -7

William Hill -8

Unibet -7

SportSelect -7.5

With news that the Jets will get starting quarterback Sam Darnold back in the mix from his bout with mono, being optimistic that he will generate sound returns isn’t favorable. Hearing that he lost quite a bit of weight and will have signs of rust, we truly wonder how this contest will shake out for New York.

The Cowboys on the other hand have seen their struggles these past few weeks while not putting it all together. However, Dallas is a much better squad and will have more than enough to make easy work of this Jets club even on the road. This contest should be viewed as a tune up for the Cowboys and Jason Garrett better have his troops ready. We see this as an easy victory for the Boys.

DAL covers the spread @ -7 DAL 22 NYJ 24 (L)

   

Tennessee @ Denver (Favorite)

Caesars -2.5

This is perhaps one of the more difficult contests to predict, as the Broncos are very up and down. Winning last week against the Chargers does bring some level of credibility, but the overall outlook isn’t very sound. The run game and defense should again be the formula taken here which could bode well for the Mile High.

The Titans are coming off a contest that was well within their grasp, but missed field goals and penalties ruined their day. While we still have no belief in Marcus Mariota, Derrick Henry will again be leaned upon to move this offense. The Titans defense is also a sound unit that will provide struggles for Joe Flacco. Either way, on the road in Denver is never an easy feat.

DEN covers the spread @ -2 TEN 0 DEN 16 (W)

Pittsburgh @ LA Chargers (Favorite)

Caesars -7

Westgate -7

William Hill -7

Unibet -6.5

SportSelect -7.5

Still with no word for who the starting quarterback will be for the Steelers, Mason Rudolph appeared to have a limited session yesterday. With that said, if he gets the nod, how efficient will he be? The run game needs to be on point with the defense playing lights out on the road.

The Chargers on the other hand are coming off a contest which saw them lay an egg and will have to be far better if they don’t want to fall further behind in the division. Playing at home will be welcome sight for this team as heading back to the drawing board to fix their inadequacies will be vastly important. We reserve the right to change this pick upon news of who the Steelers start at quarterback.

LAC covers the spread @ -7 PIT 24 LAC 17 (L)

Monday Oct.14

Detroit @ Green Bay (Favorite)

Caesars -4

Westgate -4.5

William Hill -4.5

Coming off an impressive showing last week verse the Cowboys, the Green Bay Packers seem to have all the pieces in place and ready to make things happen. If they continue to stay committed to the run game, sky is literally the limit. While their defense is extremely sound, they do give up big plays in the process. They are an attacking group that will try to get the ball with every opportunity.

The Lions are coming off the bye week and will have to be on their best this Monday in Lambo field. Trying to establish their own ground attack will definitely help the situation, but Matthew Stafford will have to be on point and not turn the ball over. Facing this old school attacking defensive approach of the Packers will be a very tough test. This game should be a lot closer than the line indicates. Should be a great matchup.

GB doesn’t cover the spread @ -4.5 DET 22 GB 23 (W)
