Won 2, lost 1 last week. The Raiders finally got beat like they should have, which means I should have probably listened to my own caveat. The Bills and Cowboys were easy wins, no sweat there at all. Lots of action this week, so buckle up.
Season: 7-5, +1.5 units
Week 6: 2-1, +0.5 units
VIKINGS (-3) @ Eagles (1 unit): Wentz seems to be a normal human, and it will get worse without Lane Johnson. Doug Pederson also doesn’t understand how to use his best talent on offense, and the Vikings are coming off a bye week. Throw in a bit of Bradford revenge factor if you want to. By the way: this game is basically a full fade for skill players for fantasy purposes.
BILLS (-2.5) @ Dolphins (1 unit): I still think the Dolphins suck. That’s pretty much the end of my analysis. The Steelers are just that bad on the road.
RAVENS (+2) @ Jets (1 unit): This assumes Flacco is healthy and can play. The Jets are starting Geno Smith. Has anyone mentioned that the Jets are starting Geno Smith?
FALCONS (-6) vs Chargers (0.5 units): NFC South teams seem to revert to amazing status at home. Enjoy the shootout.
PATRIOTS (-7) @ Steelers (1 unit): Without Ben and with Landry Jones, the Steelers are a significantly different team. Tom Brady has also destroyed the Steelers during his career, so I have to give some merit to that trend.
