NFL Week 6 Picks

The Steelers are a bad football team. There is no excuse for losing to the Raiders and Titans. Good teams pull those wins out. They should be 4-1 but instead they are 2-3. There playoff chances are getting slim. They really need to finish the year 8-3 now, which is no easy task considering they still have to play the Ravens twice, Giants, Cowboys, and Chargers. If they keep playing they way they are now they will be lucky to win two of those. I didn't even add the games against the Bengals or Brownies which could easily cost the Steelers a win. It's going to be a tough road and I should really think about giving up hope right now but for some reason I still believe they can pull it off. And look on the bright side, at least I'm not a Browns fan. On to the picks...

Outright Record: 39-32 Spread: 9-9

Falcons 41, Raiders 21 --- Falcons should win this game big even though the Raiders are off a bye, which hasn't helped DAY RAYYYDAAASS recently because they have lost their last 4 after one. Plus Matty Ice is home.

Bungals 21, Brownies 20 --- I feel sorry for anybody in the state of Ohio that has to watch this game. I think I would honestly rather watch a Keeping Up With The Kardashians marathon.

Dolphins 17, Rams 12 --- The Rams are 3-2 but they are 0-2 on the road. Meanwhile the Dolphins just beat the Bengals and could easily be sitting at 4-1 if they hadn't lost two overtime games. They should be able to win at home today.

Jets 24, Colts 17 --- NYJ -3.5 I know the Jets are not a very good football team and the Colts just knocked off the Packers. Here's the thing though, last week for the Colts was such an emotional game at home. It will be hard for them to have the same intensity on the road. I think the Jets will force a turnover or two from Andrew Luck and win this game.

Eagles 28, Lions 27 --- DET +3.5 When the Eagles win they don't win by much is my reason for taking the spread. Plus the Lions are off a bye and this is a must win for them. They cannot fall to 1-4 in the NFC North. The Eagles also need this game after losing to the Steelers last week. As long as Mike Vick doesn't fumble the ball every other play and Andy Reid ACTUALLY GIVES THE BALL TO SHADY MCCOY they should be able to win.
P.S. Seriously Andy Reid doesn't know how to coach a team. Last week against the Steelers, Shady killed them but he barely ever got the ball until their last drive which resulted in a TD. Take the ball out of Mike Vicks hands and let Shady run guy.

Bucs 20, Chiefs 17 --- I think both of these teams are better than what their record says. The Chiefs just don't have a QB (good luck with former Brownie great Brady Quinn today) but they can run the ball well. The Bucs are coming off a bye with a 1-3 record. They have been in every game though and could easily be a 2-2 team.

Ravens 27, Cowboys 17 --- BAL -3 I just have a feeling that Joe Flacco plays well today after only scoring 9 points against the Chiefs. Even though the Cowboys just had a bye week I really don't think they are a great football team. Tony Romo cannot afford to throw a pick today or else the Cowboys will go down.

Cardinals 24, Bills 14 --- The Bills have been bad recently (I'm still standing by my prediction that they will make the playoffs though). They aren't the best road team and the Cardinals have had a long rest since their loss to the Rams. They are 3-0 at home and should be ready to go this afternoon.

Patriots 31, Seahawks 20 --- It's so hard to pick against the Seahawks when they are in Seattle. But it's also hard to pick against the Patriots when their offense looks like a well oiled machine. It wouldn't shock me if the Pats finish the year 14-2. They won't win the Super Bowl because they don't play great defense but they will win today.

Giants 27, 49ers 24 --- NYG +6.5 I feel like this spread is an easy on to take. Your going to give me 6.5 points to bet on the defending Super Bowl Champs? Yes please. Anyways the Giants should have the something to prove mentality today in San Fran. Everybody thinks the Niners are the best team in the NFC but the Giants won the NFC Championship last year in their house. I think the Giants travel west and get the W.

Vikings 26, Redskins 21 --- This is the first game outdoors for the Vikings and I'm pretty sure this is the first time I'm picking them this year, so they will probably lose. RGIII is coming off a concussion though and they Vikings don't turn the ball over. They should be able to control the pace of the game and improve to a surprising 5-1.

Texans 34, Packers 23 --- It's starting to become clear that the Packers aren't a good football either. Aaron Rodgers is running for his life at times and the defense isn't great. The Texans should be pumped to be playing in their first Sunday night game. J.J Watt should be able to sack Discount Double Check Man once or twice to get the win.

Chargers 24, Broncos 21 --- I feel like these teams have been on a bunch of prime time games and I'm getting a little tired of seeing them. I think Phil and the Chargers bounce back after losing to the Saints last week. The Chargers are a better football team right now.
