1. Kansas City Chiefs (5-0): The Chiefs are coming off a bye in Week 6 and get a rematch of last season's Super Bowl with the 49ers in Santa Clara. This should be a real test for the Chiefs. The 49ers and their fans will be sky high for this game. Next: +1.5 at San Francisco 49ers - Sun, Oct. 20, 1:25 PM PT – O/U: 47 (ATS: 2-3 – O/U: 3-2)
2. Minnesota Vikings (5-0): The Viking are coming off a bye in Week 6 and will return to take on the Detroit Lions in Minnesota. The Vikings acquired running back Cam Akers from the Texans in a trade on Tuesday. The Vikings traded a conditional 2026 sixth-round pick as part of the deal, and the Texans included a conditional 2026 seventh rounder. Next: -2.5 vs Detroit Lions – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 50 (ATS: 5-0 – O/U: 1-4)
3. Detroit Lions (4-1): The Lions came into Jerry's House and absolutely boat-raced the Cowboys, 47-9. The Lions suffered a huge loss in the game with the fractured tibia and fibula injury to defensive end Aidan Hutchinson. He will be out for about four months and will be almost impossible to replace. He could return for the NFC Championship game and/or for the Super Bowl. Next: +2.5 at Minnesota Vikings – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 50 (ATS: 4-1 – O/U: 2-3)
4. Baltimore Ravens (4-2): The Ravens won their fourth consecutive game, defeating the Commanders, 30-23. The Ravens look potent on offense. Lamar Jackson threw for 323 yards and one touchdown, Derrick Henry rushed for 132 yards and two touchdowns, and Zay Flowers caught 9 passes for 132 yards. They Raven look like a good playoff team. Next: -3.5 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Mon, Oct. 21, 5:15 PM PT – O/U 49.5 (ATS: 3-2-1 – O/U: 5-1)
5. Houston Texans (5-1): The Texans beat the Pats on the road to go to 5-1 and maintain their two-game lead in the AFC South. In Week 7, the Texans will travel to Green Bay in a battle of California quarterbacks: C.J. Stroud of the Texans vs. Jordan Love of the Packers. Next: +2.5 at Green Bay Packers – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U 47.5 (ATS: 2-3-1 – O/U: 2-4)
6. Buffalo Bills (4-2): The Bills knocked off the Jets on Monday Night Football, then followed that up with a splash trade for a wide receiver. The Bills acquired wide receiver Amari Cooper from the Browns for a 3rd round draft pick in 2025 and a 7th round draft pick in 2026. Next: -9 vs Tennessee Titans - Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 41 (ATS: 3-3 – O/U: 3-3)
7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-2): The Buccaneers ran for 277 yards as they rolled through the Saints offense in a 51-27 blowout win on the road. Quarterback Baker "Heisman" Mayfield threw for 325 yards and four touchdowns in the win and added 29 yards rushing in the win. Next: +3.5 vs Baltimore Ravens - Mon, Oct. 21, 5:15 PM PT – O/U: 49.5 (ATS: 4-2 – O/U: 4-2)
8. Green Bay Packers (4-2): Quarterback Jordan Love threw four touchdown passes in a 34-13 rout of the Cardinals. The Packers have a good team, but are located in the tough NFC North division, where every team has won at least four games through the first six weeks. Next: -2.5 vs Houston Texans - Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 47.5 (ATS: 4-2 – O/U: 3-2-1)
9. Atlanta Falcons (4-2): The Falcons easily beat the Panthers, as most teams other than the Raiders have done this season. Former USC wide receiver Drake London has 38 receptions and four touchdown receptions through six weeks. Next: -2.5 vs Seattle Seahawks – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 51 (ATS: 3-3 – O/U: 3-3)
10. Washington Commanders (4-2): The Commanders hung with the Ravens, but in the end the Ravens were too much at home in a 30-23 win over the Commanders. Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels continues to lead the NFL in completion percentage. He has completed 75.3% of his passes. Next: -8 vs Carolina Panthers – Sun, Oct. 20, 1:05 PM PT – O/U: 51.5 (ATS: 4-1-1 – O/U: 5-1)
11. Pittsburgh Steelers (4-2): The Steelers easily defeated the hapless Raiders on Sunday, 32-13. Despite being 4-2 as a starter, the Steelers are considering starting Russell Wilson at QB in Week 7. Fields is averaging 184.3 passing yards per game and the Steelers must think that the veteran Wilson brings more juice to the passing game. Next: +1.5 vs New York Jets – Sun, Oct. 20, 5:20 PM PT – O/U: 38 (ATS: 4-2 – O/U: 2-4)
12. Los Angeles Chargers (3-2): Quarterback Justin Herbert had his best game of the season as the Chargers won for the first time in Denver since 2018, beating the Broncos 23-16. The Chargers could use help at wide receiver and former Charger Mike Williams is allegedly on the trade market. Williams would give the Chargers some much needed depth and experience at WR, and Herbert has had success with Williams in the past. Next: -3 at Arizona Cardinals - Mon, Oct. 21, 6:00 PM PT – O/U: 43.5 (ATS: 3-2 – O/U: 1-4)
13. Chicago Bears (4-2): Former USC rookie quarterback Caleb Williams was on fire in London on Sunday, completing 23 of 29 passes for 226 yard and four touchdowns, and adding 56 yards on the ground in an easy 35-16 win over the Jaguars. Next: Bye – Following week: N/A at Washington Commanders - Sun, Oct. 27, 1:25 PM PT – O/U: N/A (ATS: 4-1-1 – O/U: 3-3)
14. San Francisco 49ers (3-3): The 49ers moved to .500 for the season with a 36-24 win over the Seahawks in Seattle. Quarterback Brock Purdy has been steady for the 49ers this season, throwing for 255 yards and three touchdowns against the Seahawks. The 49ers will have a challenge at home this week. Next: -1.5 vs Kansas City Chiefs – Sun, Oct. 20, 1:25 PM PT – O/U: 47 (ATS: 3-3 – O/U: 4-2)
15. Seattle Seahawks (3-3): The Seahawks lost their third straight game, this time to their division rivals, the 49ers. The Seahawks lost this game at the line of scrimmage, rushing for just 52 yards, while allowing the 49ers to run for 228 yards on the ground. Next: +2.5 at Atlanta Falcons - Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 51 (ATS: 1-4-1 - O/U: 5-1)
16. Philadelphia Eagles (3-2): The Eagles won in Week 6 in unimpressive fashion, defeating the offensively challenged Browns, 20-16. Wide receiver A.J. Brown returned from his hamstring injury to catch six passes for 116 yards and a touchdown in the victory. Next: -3 at New York Giants – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 43 (ATS: 2-3 – O/U: 2-3)
17. Indianapolis Colts (3-3): Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco threw two touchdown passes, including the go-ahead touchdown to wide receiver Michael Pittman, to lead the Colts to a 20-17 win. Flacco will return to the bench this week with the return of Anthony Richardson to the starting lineup. Next: -3 vs Miami Dolphins – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 43.5 (ATS: 5-1 – O/U: 3-3)
18. New York Jets (2-4): The Jets lost 23-20 to the Bills at home Monday Night and shortly after that loss made a major trade. The Jets acquired wide receiver Davante Adams from the Raiders to join his old pal quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The cost was a third-round draft pick in 2025 that will become a second-round pick if Adams is an AP All-Pro or if the Adams is on the active roster and the Jets make the AFC Championship game or the Super Bowl. Next: -1.5 at Pittsburgh Steelers - Sun, Oct. 20, 5:20 PM PT – O/U: 38 (ATS: 2-4 – O/U: 2-3-1)
19. Dallas Cowboys (3-3): The Cowboys got crushed at home by the Lions, 47-9. The Cowboys have now lost their last four home games and have trailed by 20 points or more in all four losses. The Cowboys are ranked 30th in red zone defense and 30th in red zone offense. Today this looks like a bad football team. Next: Bye – Following week: N/A at San Francisco 49ers - Sun, Oct. 27, 5:20 PM PT – O/U: N/A (ATS: 2-4 – O/U: 4-2)
20. Denver Broncos (3-3): The Broncos saw their three-game winning streak come to an end at home in Denver, losing to the Chargers 23-16. The game was not as close as the score indicated, as the Chargers led 23-0 after three quarters. It was the first Chargers win in Denver since 2018. Next: -3 at New Orleans Saints - Thu, Oct. 17, 5:15 PM PT – O/U: 37 (ATS: 4-2 – O/U: 3-3)
21. Arizona Cardinals (2-4): The Cardinals got whacked in Genn Bay, losing to the Packers 34-13. The Cardinals are giving up 153 yards per game rushing and struggling to get pressure on the QB. That may be a problem against their next opponent. Next: +3 vs Los Angeles Chargers - Mon, Oct. 21, 6:00 PM PT – O/U: 43.5 (ATS: 3-3 – O/U: 3-2-1)
22. New Orleans Saints (2-4): The Saints lost their fourth consecutive game, getting crushed in New Orleans at the hands of the Bucs, 51-27. The Saints defense came up with three interceptions, but also gave up 594 yards in the loss. Next: +3 vs Denver Broncos – Thu, Oct. 17, 5:15 PM PT – O/U: 37 (ATS: 3-3 – O/U: 4-2)
23. Los Angeles Rams (1-4): The Rams are coming off their bye in Week 6 and will be at home this week, although it may not feel like it. The Raiders are coming to SoFi Stadium and that means a sea of Silver & Black in the stands. Fortunately for the Rams, this Raiders team is not that good. Next: -7 vs Las Vegas Raiders – Sun, Oct. 20, 1:05 PM PT – O/U: 43.5 (ATS: 1-4 – O/U: 3-2)
24. Miami Dolphins (2-3): The Dolphins are coming off their bye in Week 6 and will hope to get better quarterback play from their backups while they wait the return of starting QB Tua Tagovailoa, who cannot return off the injured list until Week 8. Tua has been out due to a series of concussions. There could come a point where it makes no sense for him to return this season. Next: -3 at Indianapolis Colts - Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 43.5 (ATS: 1-4 – O/U: 1-4)
25. Las Vegas Raiders (2-4): The Raiders were easily defeated by the Steelers on Las Vegas, 32-13. Steeler fans took over the Stadium, something that would never have happened in Oakland. Ex-Chargers GM Tom Telesco is the GM of the Raiders, and he has a lot of challenges in front of him. Telesco traded disgruntled wide receiver Davante Adams to the Jets for a third-round draft pick that could become a second if certain conditions are met. The first of many moves for Telesco. Next: +7 at Los Angeles Rams - Sun, Oct. 20, 1:05 PM PT – O/U: 43.5 (ATS: 2-4 – O/U: 4-2)
26. Cincinnati Bengals (2-4): The Bengals got a 47-yard touchdown run from quarterback Joe Burrow in their 17-7 win over the Giants. The Bengals are 0-3 at home this season but will be on the road this week against a very beatable opponent. Next: -6 at Cleveland Browns – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U 42 (ATS: 3-3 – O/U: 4-2)
27. New York Giants (2-4): The Giants hung with the Bengals, but could not score enough points to win, losing 17-7. The Giants had opportunities, but in the second half turned the ball over on downs twice, and kicker Greg Joseph missed two field goals. The Giants were also playing without star wide receiver Malik Nabors, who missed the game with a concussion. Next: +3 vs Philadelphia Eagles – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 43 (ATS: 3-3 – O/U: 1-5)
28. Tennessee Titans (1-4): The Titans have the No. 1 ranked defense in the NFL, allowing just 248.8 yards per game. That did not help in a 20-17 loss to the Colts, primarily due to quarterback Will Levis, who threw for just 95 yards and had an interception. Levis has thrown five touchdown passes this season and has seven interceptions. Next: +9 at Buffalo Bills – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 41 (ATS: 1-4 – O/U: 2-2-1)
29. Jacksonville Jaguars (1-5): The Jaguars traveled to London, hoping to find a win and they instead got blown out by the Bears, 35-16. Owner Shahid Khan gave head coach Doug Pederson and GM Trent Baalke the dreaded vote of confidence last week, which means one or both will be gone by the end of the season. Next: -5.5 vs New England Patriots - Sun, Oct. 20, 6:30 AM PT – O/U: 42.5 (ATS: 2-4 – O/U: 3-3)
30. New England Patriots (1-5): The Patriots lost their fifth straight game, falling to the Texans at home, 41-21. Rookie QB Drake Maye, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, got his first start and played well, throwing for 243 yards and three touchdowns, while leading the Pats in rushing yardage with 38. Next: +5.5 at Jacksonville Jaguars – Sun, Oct. 20, 6:30 AM PT – O/U: 42.5 (ATS: 1-4-1 – O/U: 3-3)
31. Carolina Panthers (1-5): The Panthers lost again, and the basic question has to be, when does Bryce Young start at quarterback again? Carolina sent wide receiver D.J. Moore, two first-round picks, two second-round picks, and a fourth-round pick to the Chicago Bears in exchange for the No.1 pick, which they used to select Young. They have too much invested in Young to sit him on the bench, especially since the Panthers are not close to being a playoff team. Next: +8 at Washington Commanders – Sun, Oct. 20, 1:05 PM PT – O/U: 51.5 (ATS: 1-5 – O/U: 5-1)
32. Cleveland Browns (1-5): The Browns lost to the Eagles 20-16 on Sunday at Philadelphia and the fire sale started two days later. The Browns traded wide receiver Amari Cooper, a five-time Pro Bowl selection, to the Bills, an actual playoff contender. The trade was for a 3rd round pick in 2025 and a 7th round pick in 2026. All-Pro defensive end Myles Garrett should be up next for the fading Browns. Next: +6 vs Cincinnati Bengals – Sun, Oct. 20, 10:00 AM PT – O/U: 42 (ATS: 2-4 – O/U: 2-4)
