Daniel Collins’ (4-1) Week 6 NFL Best Bet

Jaxon Smith-Njigba o75.5 Receiving yards (-115) BetOnline

This is my 4th time taking my man JSN and in an even better matchup, I have no idea why this line is sub 80.

The Jaguars are 27th in receiving yards allowed and at this point, Smith-Njigba is matchup proof. Back to old reliable.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Chef T’s (5-0) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Christian McCaffrey o52.5 Receiving Yards (-115) BetOnline

Picture this: Tampa’s defense has been leaking receiving yards to running backs all year — 29th in the league, practically begging to get diced up. Christian McCaffrey has cleared 50 yards every single week like clockwork, carving defenses in the flat and on angle routes. At 52.5, this line is like under-seasoned soup — easy to fix, and CMC is about to stir the pot again.

Nate Hornung’s (3-2) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Miami Dolphins TT Under 19.5 (+102) BetOnline

This was plus money a couple days ago but -110 is still fine. Fade the Dolphins every chance you get. The Los Angeles Chargers are depleted offensively and have dropped two straight after starting off 3-0. Heading into Miami, the defense will know they’ve got to step up against one of the worst offenses they’ve seen this year.

The Chargers also win the coaching battle. I’m taking Jim Harbaugh over Mike McDaniel everyday of the week and twice on Sundays. If there’s any coach that will turn this team around and get the ship back on track, it’s Jim. Miami has only been held under this number one time this season, and have scored at least 24 in three separate games.

“Why is this line so low?” I ask, as I strap on my tinfoil hat.

Colby Marchio’s (2-3) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Bengals +14.5 (-110) BetOnline

Buckle up, we’re about to sweat our rear ends off. I am putting all of my trust into Joe Flacco this week personally, the number is way too high at 14.5. Flacco is inheriting a much better offense than he had with the Browns and I think he can be serviceable enough to keep this within a two score game.

Again, bring a towel it will be sweaty.

John Hyslop’s (3-2) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Darren Waller Over 3.5 Receptions (-106) BetOnline

This could easily be the greatest bet of all time. Maybe better. I know the haters are going to ask, “Isn’t this guy a rapper?” Great question. Yes, he was. But now he’s a football player.
A damn good one at that. He cleared this number in the first half last week. Do we really think he won’t do it again this week? Think people. Feels easy.

Varun Sharma’s (4-1) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Tucker Kraft o45.5 Receiving Yards (-115) BetOnline

This week, the Bengals defense ranks 29th in receiving yards allowed and 29th in receiving yards allowed to the TE position. Last week we saw Sam LaPorta have his best game of the year, going for 92 yards and a touchdown. Prior to that it was T.J. Hockenson going for 49 yards and a touchdown.

The Bengals rank in the bottom two for both touchdowns and explosive plays allowed over the middle and it’s a part of the field they’ve struggled to cover. Love leads all qualifying QBs in yards per attempt and passer rating on throws between the numbers. Tucker Kraft’s been his favorite target in this area of the field, leading all TEs with 16.0 yards per reception on throws over the middle.

Brad Blakemore’s (4-1) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Jared Goff o1.5 Passing Touchdowns (-130) BetOnline

At home. Vs the Chiefs. The Superbowl that could have been and I’m backing Goff to get it done in the air.

Yes the Jags explored rushing TD’s, so let’s zag and go for Goff to throw in two

Danny Burke’s (4-1) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

J.K. Dobbins Over 64.5 Rushing Yards (-115) BetOnline

Dobbins is averaging 15.4 carries for over 80 rushing yards per game. He’s facing a Jets defense that’s allowing 4.5 yards per carry, and multiple running backs to hit 100+ yards. The Broncos should control this game and emphasize Dobbins out of the backfield.

Kate Constable’s (3-2) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Jaylen Warren U46.5 rushing yards (-111) 

I am going to continue to fade whatever running back is facing the Browns defense each week. This week, it’s Steelers RB1 Jaylen Warren. He’s averaging 44 rushing yards per game, which is right around this week’s prop, but he has yet to face a run defense quite like the Browns.

Cleveland has held Chase Brown, Derrick Henry, Josh Jacobs, David Montgomery and Jordan Mason all under their rushing prop this season, and Warren will be the next name on that list. 

Adam Kaufman’s (3-2) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Patriots -3.5 (-110) BetOnline

Call me a New England homer, a Pats honk… The playoff push in Mike Vrabel’s first season in Foxborough continues this weekend in New Orleans with a win over the struggling Saints.

Yes, the 1-4 Saints are coming off their first win after turning the Giants over five times, but the Patriots will be more disciplined and riding the high of a primetime win over the Super Bowl favorite Bills in Buffalo.

Drake Maye will have plenty of time to find his favorite target Stefon Diggs after consecutive 100-yard connections the last two weeks, while Spencer Rattler’s offense must contend with a very good secondary and an elite run-defense. Oh, and Alvin Kamara’s banged up.

This game doesn’t figure to be high-scoring, but it should be a third straight Pats win. Comfortably.

Tristan Vieira’s (5-0) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Chiefs -2.5 (-110) BetOnline

Lions going into arrowhead banged up yet still on a heater winners of 3 straight and averaging almost 35 ppg. Yet they find themselves as 2.5 point dogs to an equally banged up chiefs team that just folded on primetime. The lions are getting all the $ & public love but the line is moving the opposite direction. 

Give me Patty & the boys to cover on prime time in a sharp spot. 

Sukh Brar’s (3-2) NFL Week 6 Best Bet

Lions +2.5 (-113) BetOnline

Goff is 2-0 against the great Patrick Mahomes. He looks to stay undefeated as the Chiefs haven’t looked like themselves this year. Knowing the boys in Honolulu Blue, they’ll want to make a statement here, and I think they do.
