NFL Week 6 Preview/Predictions


Hello, all. Week 6 is here, and the boys all have something to say. Let's get into it.

1:00 
Sort of a Rivalry
Eagles (3-1) at Redskins (3-2) 

Joe: Yes, Philly was cut down by the lowly Lions. But Carson Wentz is still a stud who will pick apart the suspect Skins defense, and the Eagles D-Line will make life hell for Kirk Cousins. No, he will not like that.


Eagles 34, Redskins 17

Brad:
 Eagles will win because Carson Wentz is legit.  Washington has struggled this year, especially the defense.  Big day for Carson Wentz.

Jeff: Philly's defense will stop the Redskins offense.

''Who the Hell Cares?'' Part I

Jaguars (1-3) at Bears (1-4)
Joe: Both of these teams stink, but at least Jacksonville is headed in the right direction. The Bears are going nowhere, not that I care.

Jags 34, Bears 25

Brad: Jags will finally get a winning streak going, and I am going to stand by my prediction of a Jaguar Super Bowl this year.
Jeff: The Jags won't be able to stop Brian Hoyer and the Bears

Cleveland 

Browns (0-5) at Titans (1-4) 
Joe: Cleveland sucks.... at football. Focus on the Indians.

Brad: The Browns are horrible, yes.  But, the Titans are horrible too, and the Browns have been extremely competitive this year.

Jeff:This will be a close game, but the Browns have to win at one eventually.


Will the Patriots lose?
Bengals (2-3) at Patriots (4-1) 

Joe: The Bungles are again playing like the Bungles of old, while for New England, the King is back in his castle. So, the answer is no.
Pats 38, Bengals 14

Brad:
Patriots don't seem to want to lose, and the Bengals aspire no confidence.

Jeff: Tom Brady is Tom Brady.

49ers (1-4) at Bills (3-2) 
Joe: Say what you will about Colin Kaepernick off the field, but on the field, he is the best man to be the starting QB for the San Francisco 49ers. The Bills recent hot streak is bound to come to an end, and I think that the QB switch from Blaine Gabbert to Colin Kaepernick will refresh the 49ers offense, at least temporarily.

49ers 31, Bills 24

Brad:
Colin Kaepernick won't beat LeSean McCoy, who is giving free tickets to police officers.

Jeff: Buffalo's defense will crush Colin Kaepernick's whinny little body to the ground in a blowout.

Ravens (3-2) at Giants (2-3)
Joe: Yuck. I hate both of these teams. But since the Giants are playing at home, and Odell Beckham is due to break out, I think that the G-Men will get a much-needed W against what it, frankly, an overrated and mediocre Baltimore team.

Giants 28, Ravens 22

Brad:  
I don't see the Giants to be that good, but the Ravens are finding ways to win.  Sometimes that is enough and it will be this week.

Jeff: Hopefully OBJ can have fun again.

This is somewhat interesting 


Rams (3-2) at Lions (2-3) 
Joe: Yes, Theo Riddick and the Lions looked good against the Eagles last week. Yes, Case Keenum and the Rams looked awful against Buffalo last week. But the Rams are, at the very worst, an average football team, while I still believe that the Lions stink. LA will keep their winning ways going and improve to a surprising 4-2.

Rams 21, Lions 13

Brad:
Both of these teams are playing well, but the Lions have been better overall.

Jeff: This is my ''who the hell cares?'' game of the week.

Excitingly Dull
Panthers (1-4) at Saints (1-3)
Joe:  Carolina is clearly not the same team as the one that went 15-1 and was champs of the NFC last year. In fact, there is a good chance that they miss out on the playoffs. Although New Orleans has an awful record of 1-4, they can keep games close. I think that Drew Brees will be able to exploit a struggling Carolina defense, and New Orleans will put some points on the board. However, a man named Cam Newton is back, and his Panthers will put just a few more points on the board to avoid falling to 1-5.


Panthers 34, Saints 31

Brad:
 Carolina has been god awful this year.  I mean, they lost to the Bucs.  The Saints are better than Tampa Bay and will win at home.

Jeff: Who can't beat the Panthers at this point? 

4:05
Remember the AFL?

Raiders (4-1) at Chiefs (2-2) 
Joe:  I love the Raiders. I love Derek Carr. I love Amari Cooper. For that reason, I am picking against the Silver and Black. Although the Raiders have been good this season, they have also been lucky, and that is a big reason why they are 4-1. I think that Oakland is still growing up as a winning team, and this will be a humbling experience for Jack Del Rio's squad. As for Kansas City, an inconsistent team will experience one of the highs of a roller coaster season.
Chiefs 30, Raiders 27

Brad:
The Raiders are playing well this season.  Kansas City, on the other hand, is getting off to slow starts and that leads to issues.

Jeff: Jamaal Charles is back. Expect the Chiefs offense to get back on track.

4:25
Dez caught the ball
Cowboys (4-1)  at Packers (3-1) 
Joe: As much as I love the rookie tandem of Dak Prescott and Big Zeke Elliot, I also love Aaron Rodgers. When a football game is played at Lambeau Field, it's difficult to expect anything less than a Green Bay victory.
Packers 30, Cowboys 20

Brad:
 The Boys' are really good this year and in what will be the best game of the week.  Ezekiel Elliott will lead the Cowboys to victory.

Jeff: Dak is going to make some mistakes in this one, and it's going to cost Dallas.


Overall game of the Week
Falcons (4-1) at Seahawks (3-1)  
Joe: Atlanta has been one of the bigger surprises of the 2016 season, but, they are going into one of the most intense environments in American sports. This is the time of year when the Seahawks turn up the heat, and Atlanta will learn that the hard way today.

Brad:  The Seahawks are just a better team overall.

Jeff:This should be a good game, but the Seahawks defense is too good.

''Who the Hell Cares?'' Part III
Colts vs Texans:
Joe: Horrible Sunday Night matchup. Houston is at home and at least somewhat respectable, so I give them the win against a reeling Colts team.
Brad: The Colts have been horrible this year.  The Texans have been half decent.  The Texans will win this game.
Jeff: Houston's offense will shine.

Part IV

Jets vs Cards:
Brad:  Do I really need to explain why the Cards will win.
Joe: What he Said. 
Jeff:  jets can't seem to beat anybody and Won't beat the cards
