Cordell's Week 6 Thoughts
Philadelphia Eagles
at Carolina Panthers +3.5
While the secondary is banged up, and that does concern me, I think they still pull this out. Carolina has too many questions, which Cam do we see, and can they keep collectively compensating for Greg Olsen.
Cleveland Browns
at Houston Texans -9.5
While this team is winless, I don’t think they get their first Sunday. But I do think they can keep this close.
New England Patriots
at New York Jets +9.5
The patriots are going to be wiping the floor with the jets this week. With the jets proving that they can win a few games, I think this one is more hurtful to jets fans. Or hopefully if you want an early pick. Either way, the pats win by a lot.
.
Miami Dolphins
at Atlanta Falcons -12
This Atlanta team is becoming healthier and with that, more scary. I think Matty Ice has a big game.
Detroit Lions
at New Orleans Saints -5
While the saints are a lock at home for the most part, and I think they win, I think in a shoot-out this game stays close. I’ll take the lions and the points.
Green Bay Packers
at Minnesota Vikings +3
Green bay keeps rolling after a last second win last week as a tough Vikings defense surrenders another L.
Chicago Bears
at Baltimore Ravens -6.5
I think the ravens can get on track this week, even with their injury report stacking up. Flacco knows his team needs one, and I think they get it.
San Francisco 49ers
at Washington Redskins -10
I think Cousins shows off for the future team of his, and I’m not talking about the redskins.
Los Angeles Rams
at Jacksonville Jaguars -2.5
Jacksonville will be able to keep rolling off of a highly emotional win last week. Bortles does enough to not cost them the game.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
at Arizona Cardinals +1.5
Tampa is going to prove me right one week. Martin being back will help this whole offense, and I think they’ve got this.
Pittsburgh Steelers
at Kansas City Chiefs -4.5
Kansas City will be facing an angry Big Ben, but I don’t think the Steelers figure it out this week.
Los Angeles Chargers
at Oakland Raiders -1
Rivers hasn’t had the season he has been expected to have, but mike Williams coming back will help him and the other receivers.
New York Giants
at Denver Broncos -11.5
This Denver defense is too good to pass up, ride the wave with them.
Indianapolis Colts
at Tennessee Titans no line yet
Indy hasn’t done enough to prove they can stay in games against legitimate competition and I think Tennessee take advantage.
4 College Picks
NC State -10.5
At Pittsburgh
I think Pittsburgh is a very good team and this is way too many points to give the home team.
Arkansas +32
At Alabama
No I'm not thinking an upset here. But a rivalry game as the season thickens, 32 points I think is way too much.
Michigan
At Indiana +7.5
Even though a touchdown is a lot of points, this Michigan team isn’t going to let this game be a close one. Take them and eat the points.
Cincinnati
At South Florida -23.5
I like Cincinnati to keep this game close, even though they will be on the road against a better team. Take these points!
