NFL Week 6 Handicapping and Early Picks
Scott Morris | October 12, 2022
Tomorrow is the start of week 6 in NFL action. Wednesday is a good day to really start your handicapping process.
Like we mentioned last week, a good way to handicap games is assign a spread to the game as it if it were on a neutral field. Then subtract three points from the home team. If there is a 2.5 point or greater difference between your guess and the actual line, that is your pick. Make sure there are no major injuries you didn’t know about.
Using this handicapping method we were able to give a great pick in Cardinals +5 last week. Let’s see if we can get a couple for this week as well.
| Away | Home | Our Guess | Actual | Play |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WAS | CHI | CHI -3 | PK | YES (CHI PK) |
| BALT | NYG | BALT -2 | BALT -5 | YES (NYG +5) |
| CIN | N.O. | CIN -3.5 | CIN -2 | NO |
| JAX | IND | IND -5.5 | IND -2.5 | YES (IND -2.5) |
| MIN | MIA | MIN -3 | MIN -3.5 | NO |
| NE | CLE | CLE -2.5 | CLE -3 | NO |
| NYJ | GB | GB -9.5 | GB -7 | YES (GB -7) |
| SF | ATL | SF -3.5 | SF -5.5 | NO |
| TB | PIT | TB -9.5 | TB -8 | NO |
| ARZ | SEA | ARZ - 1 | ARZ -2.5 | NO |
| CAR | LAR | LAR -10 | LAR -10.5 | NO |
| BUF | KC | Pick | BUF -3 | YES (KC +3) |
| DAL | PHI | PHI -7 | PHI -6 | NO |
| DEN | LAC | LAC -5 | LAC -5 | NO |
For the Packers and Chiefs picks feel free to buy the half point to get it off the key numbers of 3 and 7. You can bet these picks at any top sportsbook.
