It’s week 6 already!
How are you doing in your NFL picks?
You making money?
Well you should. There have been a few easy weeks, and our man Wade McElwain has been ripping up some successful weeks on the books.
Here are his picks for Week 6 in the NFL
(-2.5) Carolina Panthers (3-2) vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-3) +48.5
When these two teams played in Week 2, it was a whole different story. A sweaty Thursday night where the Bucs stuffed Christian McCaffrey and Chris Godwin got loads of yards.
Why wouldn’t we expect more of the same this week?
Peyton Barber should be able to open some holes if he can get some good slot passes, as that front Panthers D is a bit of a tough nut to crack.
Kyle Allen is going to face pressure all day from Shaq Barret-making it a bit of a headache for him.
Look for a few sacks from the Shaq master.
It will be wet, windy and wild.
Bucs should be able to repeat again a slippery affair.
Houston Texans (3-2) vs (-4.5) Kansas City Chiefs (4-1) +55.0
The Chiefs lost? Has the world imploded?
The Indianapolis Colts choked the Chiefs in a testament game in Week 5, giving everyone a template on how it can be done.
So will the Texans be able to replicate this effort?
Definitely.
KC took a lot of injuries last week, and who knows if Patrick Mahomes will be 100% healthy.
He is facing and Texans defense that is growing with intensity each week.
The Chiefs D has yet to face a QB like Deshaun Watson this season, who will have plenty of time to open up the ball downfield to his talented receivers.
KC could be facing their second loss in a row.
San Francisco 49ers (4-0) vs (-3) LA Rams (3-2) +50.5
What’s going on with the LA Rams? Is the glory hole starting to close?
One thing that hasn’t been closing is their O-Line, which has been porous all season.
Jared Goff has hardly had any time, and no he faces the 49ers.
San Fran has a fierce front, who looks to stomp on Goff and shut down any run through their way.
Breida and Coleman should team up for a run down on the Rams, who will put up points, but inevitably go down.
49ers for the win.
(-2.5) Atlanta Falcons (1-4) vs Arizona Cardinals (1-3-1) +51.5
The Texans whooped the Falcons last week with 53 points against their tired D.
Whatever the Falcons told each other last season when they fell apart, they obviously didn’t listen.
Will they have a better chance against the struggling Cardinals?
Doubtful. Matt Ryan will still put up 300+ yards, but when it keeps coming back the other way, it’s like a hole in a boat.
Kyler Murray & David Johnson should have a great game.
Cardinals to win.
(-8) Dallas Cowboys (3-2) vs New York Jets (0-4)
Cough, cough, Sam Darnold is back from his kissing disease vacation, so how will he fare against this Dallas D?
The Cowboys took a moustache ride on Aaron Rodgers last week, who picked them apart like a turkey dinner. (Happy Thanksgiving Canada!)
If Jones was able to run holes through Dallas, what about Le’veon Bell?
He should have his first big game this season against ‘Dem Boyz who still might be smarting from that home spanking.
Dallas should win the game, but 8 points?
Doubtful.
We will be adding some new gambling functionalities in the next few weeks, so you can take our picks.
