Rules: simply pick the winner of each game listed. No score required (though a little added commentary on your picks won't be discouraged). You must make your picks before the first game of the week (usually Thursday Night Football) to be eligible for all the games. If you miss Thursday, you can still make picks for Saturday/Sunday games. If you haven't picked the Sunday games by the start of the first game (1pm EST), your Sunday picks won't count.

NY Giants @ New England - The Vikings made Daniel Jones look like the rookie he is and I expect the PATRIOTS to do the same.
Carolina vs Tampa Bay (London, UK) - We already saw the Bucs bottle up McCaffrey once this season. Can they do it again? London games always seem to throw teams off a little. I'll go with the PANTHERS.
Philadelphia @ Minnesota - It's usually wise to pick the VIKINGS at home.
Washington @ Miami - Smart move would be to pick the Skins playing a Miami team that's actively trying to lose. I say they may even fuck that up. So... it's a TIE!!!!!!
Houston @ Kansas City - Do the Texans have the o-line and running game to keep Mahomes off the field like the Colts just managed to? In my opinion, they don't. CHIEFS bounce back with a win.
New Orleans @ Jacksonville - I'm picking the JAGUARS here. I just feel like the Saints might overlook Jacksonville a little and pay for it. One of those weird games.
Seattle @ Cleveland - Browns suck; SEAHAWKS win.
Cincinnati @ Baltimore - Bengals suck; RAVENS win.
San Francisco @ LA Rams - As good as the Niners looked this past week, it's hard to see the Rams losing three games in a row. RAMS win.
Atlanta @ Arizona - I just keep picking the FALCONS. They have to win eventually, right?
Dallas @ NY Jets - COWBOYS won't lose three in a row. They put on an offensive showing that reminds the league what they can do against weak opposition.
Tennessee @ Denver - BRONCOS at home. It's always close in Denver. They only lost their last two home games to last minute field goals.
Pittsburgh @ LA Chargers - What are the Steelers going to do at QB? Who cares. CHARGERS win.
Detroit @ Green Bay - Going for the upset here and picking the LIONS. I really like what they've done defensively this season. As for GB, we see this all the time where a team has a huge win and then disappoints the following week.

NY Giants @ New England: Giants Carolina vs Tampa Bay: Tampa Bay Philadelphia @ Minnesota: Minnesota Washington @ Miami: Washington Houston @ Kansas City: KC New Orleans @ Jacksonville: New Orleans Seattle @ Cleveland: Seattle Cincinnati @ Baltimore: Baltimore San Francisco @ LA Rams: Rams Atlanta @ Arizona: Atlanta Dallas @ NY Jets: Jets Tennessee @ Denver: Denver Pittsburgh @ LA Chargers: Chargers Detroit @ Green Bay: GB
Eli will be force ghost Ben Kenobi to Jone's Luke Skywalker and Jones takes down Tom Vader and Darth Hoodie. It could happen!
London games tend to suck, and I think Carolina takes the week off. Tampa already got by the Rams so they can win this. Minnesota beats Philly in a close shoot out 24-21ish.
Redskins/Dolphins....how do you pick from this shit heap of a match up? Dolphins are intentionally losing and the Redskins are trying but they suck so hard they might still lose to a team who is taking a dive! I guess Miami since Washington just fired their coach.
KC gets over that loss to the Colts by taking it out on the Texans like a drunk husband who comes home and there is no dinner on the table. Nawlins shoots up the Jaguars and makes pelts out of them! Seahawks are looking better than I thought they would so they go in and leave a Cleveland Steamer on the field.
Baltimore beats the Bengals, BUT I would not be shocked if the Bungles all of a sudden look halfway competent and win. This could end up like that Broncos/Chargers game. Looks like a sure thing but division juju magic might dictate the better team has to lose due to some asinine rock paper scissors shit! Basically Baltimore has to fuck up more than Cincy actually winning for the Bengals to win.
Rams gotta get back on track. I think they throw a speed bump into the Niners undefeated road trip. Atlanta/Arizona........why this hell??? Atlanta FINALLY gets a victory. This game feels like the NFL realizes the Falcons are run by remedial class level graduates and are intentionally throwing them an easy game.
NFL: Okay Falcons, I know you have been having.....issues.....but we have a nice, happy, little easy opponent for you this week in the Cardinals so go do your best!
Jets gotta win sometime this year......right??? Ny beats Dallas for the Lulz! I'm going to take Denver at home because playing in Mile High sucks for lowlanders.
Chargers laid a massive egg against the Broncos this weekend. Theoretically they have an easy detail in a skeleton crew run Steelers team.
Green Bay All Day. Packers take down Detroit in a good Monday night division battle.

Thursday October 10th 8:20pm EST NY Giants @ New England - Defense is just too good.
Sunday October 13th 9:30am Carolina vs Tampa Bay (London, UK) - Fucking hell, I never seem to pick either of these two teams right. Carolina, I guess?
1:00pm Philadelphia @ Minnesota - Hell if I know.
Washington @ Miami - Fucking hell...who screws up first and gets a win? I'll go Washington with a new coach.
Houston @ Kansas City - Chiefs at home. Colts maybe put something on tape to beat this team but not sure the Texans have the defense to copy it.
New Orleans @ Jacksonville - I guess this Saints team will continue to roll with Bridgewater.
Seattle @ Cleveland - Seattle. Wtf Cleveland?
Cincinnati @ Baltimore - Hopefully Lamar bounces back with a monster game. Fantasy team will need it.
4:05pm San Francisco @ LA Rams - Idk, 49ers looked really good and home field isn't an issue in LA.
Atlanta @ Arizona - Maybe Atlanta wins this one. Though I won't be shocked if they lose it.
4:25pm Dallas @ NY Jets - Sure.
Tennessee @ Denver - Sure x2.
8:20pm Pittsburgh @ LA Chargers - Pitt has a 3rd string QB going so here's hoping the Chargers can pull it out.
Monday October 14th 8:15pm Detroit @ Green Bay - Detroit off a bye week is worrisome and they've played a lot better than week one. Each team has a good front seven but I'll take GB's front seven plus secondary at home. Stafford much more likely to commit some turnovers than Rodgers is. Probably going to see a lot of Aaron Jones and Kerryon Johnson.

I'm changing my pick to Washington. The more I think about it, the more I feel Miami is intentionally telling their guys not to try at this point. Like the coaches are saying "you still get your paycheck" just don't bother putting in any effort for the rest of the year because we are tanking for that first pick. I'm expecting a boring ass garbage game that ends like 7-3 or 6-2 or some shit. The crowd of 23 people go crazy!

I wish they could flex that Steelers/Chargers matchup. That could be a dreadful game. I'd rather have Niners/Rams on SNF.

Here are my picks for Week 6’s games
Patriots over Giants - Pats are a far more talented team on both sides of the ball, they win easily.
Panthers over Buccaneers - A difficult pick, but I’ll take the Panthers as they are playing very well right now and they have a better defense.
Vikings over Eagles - The Vikings have a superior defense and are at home so I will take them.
Redskins over Dolphins - Toilet Bowl here, I’ll take the Skins as they’ve been more competitive so far.
Chiefs over Texans - Chiefs offense will outscore the Texans in a shootout.
Saints over Jaguars - Saints are playing excellent football right now and have more talent.
Seahawks over Browns - Interesting matchup, I’ll take the Seahawks as they are playing much better and I have no confidence in the Browns.
Ravens over Bengals - Bengals are a lousy team all around, Ravens win easily.
Rams over 49ers - Very intriguing and important game, but I’ll take the Rams because their offense is more explosive, I don’t think the Niners can cover all of their offensive weapons.
Falcons over Cardinals - Falcons will stop the bleeding and get a desperately needed win against the Cards.
Cowboys over Jets - Jets look lifeless and pathetic, Cowboys win easily.
Titans over Broncos - I’ll take the Titans as they have more talent on both sides of the ball.
Chargers over Steelers - Chargers have a much better team, they haven’t played up to their potential but they get the win.
Packers over Lions - Packers defense is playing very well and I think they will slow down the Lions and Rodgers makes enough plays to get them the win.

This week I am ensuring to pick who I think is going to win. I wanted the Colts over Chiefs last week, but picked Chiefs anyway because it was the 'smarter' play. I have done something like this every week. This time I am picking with my gut.Thursday October 10th 8:20pm EST NY Giants @ New England Obviously New England should win here, but wouldn't it be hilarious if the Giants won? It would add to the lore that they always win this matchup. Sunday October 13th 9:30am Carolina vs Tampa Bay (London, UK) Tampa bounces back. I truly believe they are the better team here. As long as they can find a way to slow down CMC, they will win. 1:00pm Philadelphia @ Minnesota Washington @ Miami I am tempted to pick Washington because a new coach normally lights a fire for one game at least, but I think Miami actually plays well coming out of the bye at home. Houston @ Kansas City My game of the week. Both teams will play to win here but I think the Chiefs bounce back at home. New Orleans @ Jacksonville Minshew is a God Seattle @ Cleveland Cincinnati @ Baltimore4:05pm San Francisco @ LA RamsAtlanta @ Arizona4:25pm Dallas @ NY Jets As hilarious as it would be for Dallas to lose here, the Jets offense is just too terrible. Tennessee @ Denver 8:20pm Pittsburgh @ LA Chargers Upset? The Chargers are not as good as people think and the Steelers have turned the corner I think, even with the Ravens loss. Monday October 14th 8:15pm Detroit @ Green Bay
