Time once again for your Winning Stats Predictor Picks, this time for Week 6. Things are starting to heat up picking winners, as it went 11-3 last week, improving the season total to 47-30. Unfortunately it still can't seem to win any money in Vegas (or for me), going just 6-8 Against the Spread, bringing our season record to 32-42-3, and ending our two week mini-run of winning weeks. Let's get back on track this week:
Game Picks for Week 6:
| Home | Score | Away | Score | Probability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Titans | 24 | Steelers | 29 | 62.7% |
| Falcons | 30 | Raiders | 19 | 77.0% |
| Browns | 21 | Bengals | 24 | 57.7% |
| Dolphins | 18 | Rams | 19 | 51.2% |
| Jets | 20 | Colts | 23 | 59.2% |
| Eagles | 21 | Lions | 22 | 52.2% |
| Ravens | 26 | Cowboys | 25 | 53.6% |
| Buccaneers | 18 | Chiefs | 19 | 51.2% |
| Seahawks | 23 | Patriots | 24 | 51.6% |
| Cardinals | 27 | Bills | 19 | 71.1% |
| 49ers | 30 | Giants | 22 | 68.7% |
| Redskins | 21 | Vikings | 25 | 61.4% |
| Texans | 25 | Packers | 24 | 51.4% |
| Chargers | 23 | Broncos | 25 | 55.6% |
Top 5 Against the Spread Picks (2-3 last week, 9-14-2 season):
-
Colts +3.5 at Jets - As "Luck" would have it, the Colts are my best pick for this week, getting points (and I've seen +3 (+105)), in a game I think they could win handily. I had the Colts last week as well, and that worked out quite nicely.
-
Lions +4.5 at Eagles - The predictor has gotten the Eagles right in every game this week, so we're going with that pick against this week, with a desperate team coming off a bye. Turnovers will be key.
-
Seahawks +3.5 vs. Patriots - From now on, anytime I see the Seahawks getting points at home, no matter the opponent, I'm taking them. They're better than people give them credit for.
-
Titans +5.5 vs. Steelers - Home Dogs from the Predictor are 8-3 Against the Spread this season, so we'll go with a home team getting points on a short week. No Troy Polamalu too.
-
Cardinals -4.5 vs. Bills - This is just because the Bills are bad, and the Cardinals have won 11 straight at home. Predictor is also 4-1 predicting the Cardinals games, so I like that too this week.
