Fantasy football strategy, rankings, and podcasts

If you haven’t noticed by now, we are in the thick of a time that plays a role in the confidence pool, especially season-long pools – bye weeks!

This can play big in your season long pools. If you have had a solid start and are sitting comfortably towards the top of the standings, you are loving bye weeks as the top numbers aren’t in play! You can’t have 15 and 16 point games where there are only 14 games played in a week!

On the flip side, if you need to make up ground, you need to make sure you hit as many picks as you can in a week.

Lucky for you, you’re reading my picks, so you’re good to go ?

Week 6 – HERE WE GO!!!!

(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)

15 – KANSAS CITY over Denver – A week of dramatic, close, competitive NFL games … … … will begin on Sunday, not Thursday.

14 – MIAMI over Carolina – Welcome to the league, Bryce! We need 64 points from you this week.

13 – BUFFALO over New York Giants – An easy way for the Bills to transition into a season without Matt Milano is to play the Giants

12 – Philadelphia over NEW YORK JETS – Another nationally televised game based on a quarterback who won’t be playing.

11 – LOS ANGELES RAMS over Arizona – The Rams offense seemed pretty tough BEFORE Cooper Kupp came back.

10 – JACKSONVILLE over Indianapolis – The Colts don’t win in Jacksonville, and that’s even when they have the better team!

9 – Baltimore over TENNESSEE – I feel that the London crowd will be offended by player nicknamed King Henry crowd so the refs will lean towards the Ravens.

8 – San Francisco over CLEVELAND – Hard to see picking against the 9ers in any situation at this point.

7 – LAS VEGAS over New England – Hopefully the Raiders will keep the ball out of Jakobi Meyeres if the game is close late.

6 – LOS ANGELES CHARGERS over Dallas – How quickly has the allure of the Cowboys disappeared?

5 – New Orleans over HOUSTON – The Saints just seem to find a way to win

4 – ATLANTA over Washington – It’s a home game so obviously you can’t go against Desmond Ridder!

3 – CINCINNATI over Seattle – OK, I’m back with the Bengals. My BOLD PREDICTION of the week is that even with the slow start, THE BENGALS WILL WIN THE AFC NORTH.

2 – TAMPA BAY over Detroit – This could be a surprisingly fun game

1 – CHICAGO over Minnesota – If you think the Bears will win at all this season, keep it on the one-point linen
