Predictions for Week 6

Alrighty now, Last week I was 7-7, putting me at 41-19 for the season. Damn I screwed this up. Let's try aonther round.

HOU at CIN Winner: CIN

Cincinatti has been on arole recently and should continue in that vain in this home game against the Texans. The Texans run defense has been somewhat pourous in run defense recently so I think that Cedric Benson should have a good game in this one.


DET at GB Winner: GB

Detriot is  playing much better than they were last year. However, inconsistentcy in thier running game and a tranisitioning defense gives me every reason to select the offensively superior Packers.

STL vs. JAC Winner: JAC

Jacksonville has been somewhat lacking in offensive indentity recently, however they have shown the ability to run and throw with a fiar amount of consistentcy and effectiveness. The Rams have been defensively inempt recently. This should be a blowout.



BAL vs. MIN Winner: MIN

This game should be tight. However, the Ravens run defense was gashed by Cedric Benson. This doesn't bode well for the match-up against Adrian Peterson. I think this will be the main reason for the Vikings winning this game.


NYG at NO Winner: NYG

The Saints offense is explosive to be sure. Thier defense, however, is better at getting turnovers and getting points off those turnovers than actually stopping teams from scoring. The Giants are a different story. They actually have been stopping teams from scoring with a dominating defense and have been able to score enough points to get the win each week. The Giants should win this game and solidify thier place as the best team in the NFC.


CLE at PIT Winner: PIT

Cleveland is mis-managed. Pittsburgh is dynamic, on offense  and defense, plus they get Troy Polamalu back this week. Pitt wins in a blowout.

CAR at TB Winner: CAR

Tampa Bay is transitioning in every phase of the game. Even though they are playing hard, the Panthers have better talent and are playing better than the Bucs. DeAngelo Williams should have a great game in this matchup.


KC at WAS Winner: KC

I keep picking Washington to win a game and they keep failing me. Kansas City showed a lot against Dallas and they should be able to break through against the waning and slipping Redskins.

PHI at OAK Winner: PHI

Philadelphia is on a roll with Donovan McNabb back and at near full strength. Oakland is a listless frnachise, criipled by the owner that brought them to greatness. Philly wins in a blowout.

ARI at SEA Winner: ARI

Even though Seattle had a great showing against Jacksonville, I think that will not last against an explosive offensive team like the Cardinals. Matt Hasselback is still a good fantasy start, however I don't that will be enough to overcome the potentcy of the Cardinals offensive power.


TEN at NE Winner: NE

Tennessee has been completely unable to get it done when it come to maintaining consistent offensive production. New England has been getting its defensive swagger back in the past couple of games. New England should be able to win the game easily.



BUF at NYJ Winner: NYJ

Buffalo has been somewhat inept in the past few weeks. The Jets have missed on some winable games in the past few weeks so they will be playing angry and will probably blitz heavily. This should be a blowout after the first couple of plays.


CHI at ATL Winner: ATL

Atlanta has been able to answer almost every challenge that has come thier way this season, putting them squarely in the division race. Chicago has played stronger every week they have come out. This should be a tightly contested game, But I think Atlantas running game will allow them to overcome the Bears defense.

DEN at SD Winner: DEN

As over-rated as I think they are, the Broncos have answered the call at every challenge. The Chargers have been able to string some wins together but still seem to me to be a bit listless, particularly on the defensive side. They've lost the running game they so proudly touted when they where 14-2. I think Denver wins, because they have been able to keep the pressure on while the Chargers have sorly missed having thier pass rush ability.
