Last week speaks for itself http://www.cappingthegame.com/forum/showthread.php?93881-NFL-Week-5
Week 6 rundown:
Giants-CHI - Giants are shockingly bad but still have Eli and some weapons. Bears have been unimpressive of late. One of these days the Giants will put something together, but line seems about right. Pass.
Oak-KC - Division rival getting a bunch of points isn't an auto play, but its certainly on the radar. Pryor has proved at Indy that he can play effectively on the road.
Oakland +8 1/2
Phi-TB - Bit of a mystery game with the QB situations. Pass.
GB-Balt - Ravens seem to be getting it together, and dogs again? Can't resist.
Baltimore +3
Det-Cle - Worried about Cleveland being over-valued now that they're back to Weeden, but Lions on the road is still problematic. Pass.
Car-Minn - Vikings should win but the upcoming QB controversy figures to make them unpredictable for awhile. Pass.
STL-Hou - Houston needed to hit bottom and I think the Niners game fits the bill. Expecting a rebound from them against a team they should be able to push around.
Houston -7 1/2
Pit-Jets - Ordinarly LeBeau scheming against a rookie is a must play, especially off a bye week, but the Jets look like they'll dominate both lines and Geno's mobility will be big against the Steeler blitzes. Passing for now, may revisit.
Cin-Buf - Bills will be a tough out at home all year. Didn't we see Cincy lay an egg in this type of spot two weeks ago?
Buffalo +7
Ten-Sea - Lot of points to be giving to a fairly decent Titan team. No chance of Tenny winning though, so pass.
Jax-Den - No reason to play this monster line. Pass.
Ari-SF - Another division rival getting a bundle of points. Arizona's D is pretty solid, and they have weapons to be competitive.
Arizona +10 1/2
NO-NE - Not a fan of going against the Pats in their building, but the Saints are rolling and have the better offensive personnel. Will pass.
Was-Dal - Was last week the type of game that will boost a team's confidence (like the NY Giants trying to ruin the Pats perfect regular season) or was it just another Dallas disappointment? Regardless, the Skins are dangerous coming out of the bye, with RG3 coming off what was kind of his preseason in Weeks 1-4. Skins have to feel confident in this spot. Pass.
Good luck all!
