NFL – Gameweek 6 Preview

NFL - Gameweek 6 Preview

NFL – Gameweek 6 Preview – With four teams on a bye this week ( Bills, Bengals, Cowboys and Seahawks), here are my week 6 predictions:

 

Thursday Night

Eagles at Panthers

Both teams are 4-1 and are off to good starts to the year! QB Cam Newton is playing at a high level and will be tested by the Eagles defensive front 7. Eagles QB Carson Wentz had a big game last week, and I am expecting another good performance. In the end I see the Panthers taking it late.

Panthers To Win –  27-21

Newton: 300 YDS, 3 TDs

Benjamin: 88 YDS, 1 TD

 

Sunday Games

Dolphins at Falcons

Miami’s offensive line has been terrible to start the season, and with the Falcons coming off their bye week rested, I am expecting the Dolphins to continue to struggle on offense. Their defense has played well but will tire against the explosive Falcons offense.

Falcons To Win –  27-10

Ryan: 315 YDS, 3 TDs

Jones: 100 YDS Rec, 1 TD

Freeman: 115 Total YDS, 2 TDs

 

Bears at Ravens

Rookie QB Mitch Trubisky will be in his first road game against the aggressive Ravens defense. Flacco and the Ravens offense showed some life last week and will look to continue.

Ravens To Win – 21 -13

Flacco: 225 YDS, 2 TDs

Ravens Defense: 1 TD

Browns at Texans

The Texans Defensive injuries will be a concern moving forward specifically with losing JJ Watt for the rest of the season. Rookie QB Deshaun Watson has been consistently good the past 3 weeks, and will continue this week.

Texans To Win –  30 – 17

Watson: 300 YDS, 3 TDS

Hopkins: 115 YDS, 1 TD

Miller: 90 YDS rushing, 2 TDs

 

Packers at Vikings

Division rivalry between two teams with injuries, however the Vikings are without their starting QB, and RB. Packers offensive line is getting healthy, on back to back road games similar to last week I see Aaron Rodgers pulling a win out late in this one.

Packers To Win –  24-20

Rodgers: 288 YDS, 2 TDs

Jones: 100 YDS rushing , 1 TD

Adams & Nelson: 1 TD each

 

Lions at Saints

Lions lost a tough game last week against the Panthers, meanwhile the Saints are coming off their bye week with an improving defense. While the trade of Adrian Peterson will help stabilise their running game, the Lions will challenge that Saints secondary. Expect a good game here!

Saints To Win –  28 – 24

Brees: 315 YDS , 3 TDs

Ingraham: 100 Total YDS, 1 Rushing TD

Thomas: 100 YDS Rec, 1 TD

49ers at Redskins

The 0-5 49ers in their third straight road game, against Washington who is coming off a bye week are all things that will be tough to overcome for the 49ers.

Redskins To Win –  31 -10

Cousins: 275 YDS, 3 TDS

Pryor: 110 YDS, 1 TD

 

Buccaneers at Cardinals

Tampa lost to the Patriots last Thursday, meanwhile the Cardinals aren’t looking as good as expected. I see the Bucks offense getting the ball going.

Tampa To Win –  28 -17

Winston: 275 YDS, 2 TDs

Evans: 88 YDS, 1 TD

Martin: 100 Total YDS, 1 Rushing TD

 

Rams at Jaguars

Both teams are up and coming with both looking impressive at 3-2. The Rams lost a physical game against the Seahawks last week and have a long cross country trip for this week. The Jags defense has looked good, but their run defense will be tested this week against the top 5 offensive line in the Rams.

Rams To Win –  20-14

Goff: 215 YDS, 1 TD

Gurley: 145 YDS Total, 2 TDs Rushing

{ad}

Steelers at Chiefs

The undefeated Chiefs are confident and riding high while the Struggling Steelers are looking to get back on track. No way the Steelers offense will look as bad as last week, but in a close game I see the Chiefs winning late. Key injury to watch is pro bowl TE Travis Kelce for the Chiefs if he cannot play that is a big loss.

Kansas City To Win –  23-21

Smith: 300 YDS, 2 TDS

Hunt: 110 Total YDS, 1 TD Rushing, 1 TD REC

 

Giants at Broncos

The Giants lost 3 WRs to injury last week including their star Odell Beckham for the season. Broncos are coming off their bye week and this is a primetime game for that defense. I don’t see this ending well for the Giants!

Broncos To Win –  27 – 13

Broncos Defense: 2 TDS

Anderson: 115 Total YDS, 2 TDs
