Broncos-Rams and Week 6 Picks!

The Broncos come home to Mile High after a terrible loss at the Jets last week and on a three game losing streak at 2-3. The Rams come into town 5-0 and the best team in the NFC. The Broncos are big underdogs at home and the weather is calling for snow and 30 degree temps. I think the only advantage the Broncos have in this game is the weather and the homefield. How the hell is Vance Joseph and Joe Woods going to find a way to outcoach Sean McVay and the Rams offense? I can't see it happening. The Broncos are in for a rough one, and I think the Rams will pull away in the second half and send the Broncos to their fourth straight loss.

LA Rams (-7) over DENVER

Final Score: Rams-30 Broncos-20

Now onto the picks for Week 6...
Last Week's Record: 9-5-1
Overall Record: 36-34-6
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)

MINNESOTA (-9) over Arizona:
The Vikings are 2-2-1 and coming off a big win over the Eagles last week. They blew a bad one at home to the Bills earlier in the season, and I don't see it happening to the 1-4 Cards this week.

CLEVELAND (+1) over LA Chargers: Interesting game in the AFC this week. The Browns are 2-2-1 after a big win over the Ravens last week, and the Chargers are 3-2 but have to come all the way to Cleveland in the early window. I think the Browns will find a way to beat the Chargers and get to three wins.

MIAMI (+4) over Chicago: Everything points to a Bears win here, but I have a feeling that the Dolphins will pull the upset at home.

WASHINGTON (-1) over Carolina: I think the Redskins will rebound after getting blown out against the Saints last week. I think the Panthers aren't a great road team, and the Skins win a close one.

Indy (+3) over NY JETS: Andrew Luck finds a way to keep the Colts in the game and wins it late on a last minute drive.

CINCY (-2) over Pittsburgh: I think the Bengals are the best team in the AFC North and I think they prove it once again with a big home win over the Steelers.

ATLANTA (-3) over Tampa Bay: Atlanta is more desperate at 1-4 and they need the win badly. I can't see them losing three in a row at home.

Seattle (-3) over Oakland (London): The first London game of the year and the Seahawks will take care of business and send the Raiders to 1-5.

Buffalo (+10) over HOUSTON: No way this Texans team should be favored by 10 points over anyone-even the Bills.

Jacksonville (-3) over DALLAS: Jacksonville's defense will be too much for the Cowboys offense. Look for the Jags to get back on track and get to 4-2.

TENNESSEE (+3) over Baltimore: This is a pretty big game in the AFC. I like the Titans at home as a home underdog in this spot. I still don't trust the Ravens on the road.

Kansas City (+4) over NEW ENGLAND: It is hard to bet against Belichick and Brady at home on a Sunday night, but I think the Chiefs will do enough to find a way to win the game.

GREEN BAY (-9) over San Francisco: The 49ers look done at 1-4 and are probably headed for a top five pick in the draft. The Packers are shaky and Aaron Rodgers is still banged up, but they should find a way to win the game easily at home on MNF.
