NFL Week 6 picks against the spread Chie

These two prime-time games are a reward for our penance on Thursday night. Two elite divisional matchups on Sunday and Monday plus a bunch of eyebrow-raising chaos bombs lingering in the early window.The two non Chiefs-Bills games in the late window are extremely "meh" at first glance. But a crazy NFC West shootout and Carolina playing spoiler could really turn the afternoon window into a full day of calamity.Last week felt like a C+ or B- drama week for the . This one has the makings of some very bizarre twists and turns. Sunday, 1 p.m. ETTV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ ( ) Latest Odds: New York Giants +5.5 The Giants are the most fun question in football right now -- is this John Henson Jersey start legit or will they regre s? Brian Daboll is universally beloved regardle s, both by Giants fans and football fans in general. He's so dang blue collar. The only concern is New York's coming back from London off a ma sive win against a very dangerous offense. The Giants will muddle things up because they can't win with lockdown defense, but it's asking a LOT of this team to slow down . I think we see a ton of points here, a suming the forecast remains benign, especially with now on IR for Baltimore. I'm picking the Ravens but if I were betting them I'd take the first half line instead with New York battling potential jet lag. The pick:Ravens 35, Giants 28Props, Best Bets: Over 45.5Sunday,1 p.m. ETTV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ ( ) Latest Odds: New Orleans Saints +3 The Revenge Game!! Cincy is 31st in yards per play in the NFL this year, which Jabari Parker Jersey would be shocking except the bigger stunner is the ranking 32nd. Quite the precipitous fall for the reigning conference champs. These teams feel like traditional scorers, but both defenses are substantially better than the current iteration of the offenses. This game is an LSU FEST. Betting against in Louisiana does not feel smart and I bet we see a sneaky amount of Burrow jerseys in the stands from Saints fans who appreciate what he did at LSU. I have the Saints but barely.The Pick: Saints 17, Bengals 14Bets: Under 43Sunday, 1 p.m. ETTV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ ( ) Latest Odds: Indianapolis Colts -1.5 Insane stat: the Colts are the first team since the 1995 to not allow a single point in the fourth quarter of any game through five weeks of the season. More insane stat: if the Jaguars don't score in the fourth quarter Sunday, the Colts will be the first team since the 1934 and 1934 to not allow a fourth-quarter point through six games of the season. Now, granted, this isn't entirely the Colts being elite on defense -- Jacksonville shut/blew them out a few weeks Oscar Robertson Jersey back and no one scored late. The stepped on their own foot last Thursday. Etc, etc., but still a crazy stat. The Jaguars are, somehow, the more desperate team here. The under is so low it's hard to play, but it's hard to see where the points come from here.The Pick: Jaguars 14, Colts 9Bets: Lean under and JagsSunday, 1 p.m. ETTV: Fox|Stream:fuboTV ( ) Latest Odds: Miami Dolphins +3 Any discu sion of this game is largely irrelevant without knowing the precise nature of the Miami quarterback situation. , the late-round rookie, has been announced by Mike McDaniel as the starter. I think plays (he never suffered a concu sion, per the Dolphins, but the altered protocols forced him to remain out of the game and mi s practice). I'm willing to bet on the +3.5 that he ends up playing and I think we see a ton of points in this game too. The Pick: Dolphins 28, Vikings 24Bets: Over 45.5, Dolphins +3.5Sunday, 1 p.m. ETTV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ ( ) Latest Odds: Cleveland Browns -2.5 Bill Belichick Revenge Game!!! The Patriots were written off several weeks ago and the BB eulogies were being crafted. Then they stuffed the Lions in a sack last week. It still didn't get the radar up. What did put my antenna in the air was Tom Curran -- the funniest-in-writing (decently funny in person too, I gue s) reporter of any major NFL beat -- of NBC Sports Boston giving some praise to Matt Patricia's offense. MY SLANT with Time to appreciate the job Matt Patricia is doing with the offense is on again at 8:30pm(but don't Spencer Hawes Jersey get ahead of yourself, "we're not going to do cartwheels") NBC Sports Boston's Patriots Coverage (@NBCSPatriots) We all had a good chuckle but the numbers are on par with last year and the Pats have a very winnable schedule coming up. Ignoring the quality of competition from the current season's teams, let's acknowledge Bill Belichick is about to play the twice, the Browns once and the Colts once in a six-game stretch. Bill might as well be Steve Buscemi writing names right before he gets that call from Billy Madison. The sixth opponent is the Bears. Even with (!), the Pats might be about to get hot.The Pick: Patriots 18, Browns 13Bets:Lean under and PatsSunday, 1 p.m. ETTV: Fox|Stream:fuboTV ( ) Latest Odds: Green Bay Packers -8 is a complex individual, but he's also got some very simple, very respectable and very dangerous tendencies when he's questioned. Rodgers has Michael Jordan level spite levers working inside his head. There's nothing more complimentary than the way approaches Rodgers -- he's treated as a contemporary despite being seven years younger. And Brady still stays aloof, because he knows Rodgers is a threat. Anywho, the Packers lost and Rodgers is probably going to carve up the Jets in this LaFleur vs. LaFleur matchup. The Pick: Packers 31, Jets 17Bets: Packers -7Sunday, 1 p.m. ETTV:Fox|Stream:fuboTV ( ) Latest Odds: Atlanta Falcons +3.5 If we're going to ding a franchise for a perceived bad roster, we need to give credit to a coaching staff for maxing out that roster. The Falcons have played five games and have been in Jason Terry Jersey five one-score games. Arthur Smith is doing a really good job with the current Falcons roster and deserves credit for navigating the Matt Ryan/Marcus Mariota swap meet move. He had nothing to do with it and still has the offense giving people problems. If anyone gives these guys flak for using "smoke and mirrors" quickly remind them that's coaching. I'm going Niners here but if the final injuries are bad for San Francisco I wouldn't want to be on their side.The Pick: 49ers 28, Falcons 24Bets: Pa sSunday, 1 p.m. ETTV: Fox|Stream:fuboTV ( ) Latest Odds: Pittsburgh Steelers +9.5 T
