This week’s Pick 6 features 2 favorites, 2 underdogs & 2 totals.
YTD Record: 15-20-1
Pick #1
KC -3 @ DEN
This is the game to get Mr. Thursday Night back in the W column. I’ve heard a lot of talk about how Kansas City is in trouble & about how the Chiefs are in a crisis. Well this is a get right spot for them. I think they go short week on the road & prove to national audience that they are for real & that their season is back on track. KC by a touchdown.
Pick #2
HOU-IND OVER 47
Points, points, points & more points here in this AFC South showdown between Houston & Indianapolis. I think both defenses are still trying to figure out what they do really well & that’s a formula for both offenses to score up & down the field. I think Texans QB Deshaun Watson will be able to continue his good form & Jacoby Brissett & the rest of that Colts offense should be rested & well prepared coming off the bye, taking the OVER here.
Pick #3
DET +1 vs. MIN
I’m going to chase the Vikings all season. I don’t think Kirk Cousins is good, I’ve told you this a lot. Give me the Lions here at home on a short week after losing another division game in heartbreaking fashion on Monday Night Football. I think Detroit will be able to use that frustration & take it out on a Minnesota team that is reading their press clippings after a home win over Philadelphia. First moneyline sprinkle of the week, Lions & the points.
Pick #4
LAC +2 @ TEN
The Los Angeles Chargers need a win in the worst way & I still can’t figure out how a team that has Ryan Tannehill as their starter in 2019 is favored. I guess that’s how far the Chargers have fallen in most people’s eyes but I’m not giving up on Philip Rivers even though everyone else seems to be. Chargers in the second moneyline sprinkle of the week outright in Nashville.
Pick #5
SEA -3.5 vs. BAL
Seattle is proven, Baltimore is not. That is really the only logic I need here. All Russell Wilson has done his whole career is win games & I see his Seahawks squad taking care of the Ravens by a touchdown at least. Lamar Jackson will have a tough day dealing with that Seattle defense on the road, so give me the Seahawks giving the points.
Pick #6
PHI-DAL OVER 48.5
This rivalry has gone back in forth in the recent years total wise. Usually these two teams get into absolute shootouts but before last season, the trend in this series was to lean under. Well now it’s time to go back to the OVER because both defenses have played horribly the last few weeks. I think both offenses find a way to get into rhythms & we have a points-fest on Sunday Night Football.

Good luck!
