NFL Football Picks

The Buffalo Bills whooped up on the Raiders last weekend, but they still don’t look very smooth. The Washington Commanders look like a team which is going to struggle on offense at times, but Buffalo’s defense really isn’t that good. Who covers the spread here? Get Loot’s Buf/Wash prediction here!

The Atlanta Falcons barely got by the Green Bay Packers last week. The Detroit Lions dropped a clise one at home to Seattle. Both games were fairly evenly matched. Now these teams meet each other in what should be another exciting game that comes down to the 4th quarter. Get Loot’s Atl/Det pick here!

The Rams are better. That much we know. They’re a playoff team and the Broncos probably aren’t. At the same time, Mile High isn’t an easy place to play. This is a tough patch for the Rams, in the second of three straight road games. So which factors should matter most to bettors in our week 6 pick?

When a team that can’t buy a win is suddenly in every game, covering spreads, while getting close games to fall in their favor, it deserves a hard look. Volatility is less of a factor and opposing teams need to take them seriously. That’s reflected in the 1 point spread where the Browns are even technically the favorite at a couple betting sites.

The Key to this Matchup: QB play. Let’s face it, the QB makes or breaks a team, and this game is all about Wilson vs. Carr. Yes, it helps to have a marquee supporting cast surrounding you but a solid QB can bring out the best in even the most average of players. Dave Wilson breaks down the quarterback play in this game and offers his free pick.

After blowing 20-point lead on Sunday Night Football to kick off the season against the Green Bay Packers in Lambeau Field, Chicago has gotten off to a roll winning three consecutive games. The Bears also come in well-rested here as they come into Miami off a bye. Are they in s a good spot to get Miami at -3? Keith Franks gives his pick to win against the spread.

This offense can only go as far as Joe Flacco can take it. That was proven Sunday when nobody could answer the bell and come to the aid of their drowning quarterback. Mornhinweg has also proven that he’s likely to stick with the passing game even if Flacco doesn’t have his best stuff. Rick Wise takes a closer look at the matchup and makes his NFL selection.

In Buffalo’s three lopsided losses to the Ravens, Chargers, and Packers, Josh Allen played like a rookie. In the Bills’ two wins, Allen looked more comfortable and the offense therefore played better as whole. Which Josh Allen do we see this weekend? Sportdbooks have given Bills backers 10 points to work with.

Although the Vikings record is not great, we can say that they have played the more difficult schedule so far in 2018. They tied the Packers, beat the Super Bowl Champion Eagles, and they played a very competitive game against the undefeated Rams, losing by a single score. So are they good enough to win by 11? Bob Clark has his prediction.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cincinnati Bengals square off for the first of their two annual prison riots in a classic AFC North matchup. The Steelers have gathered all the king’s horses and all the king’s men to try to put their Humpty Dumpty start to the season back together again. Bookies are offering the Steelers +2.5 and Kyle Cash is riding Pittsburgh here in week 6.
