⏰ 1:00PM ET - Commanders vs. Ravens

The reigning MVP is set to face one of the rising quarterback stars and former Heisman Trophy winner as the Washington Commanders (4-1) take on the Baltimore Ravens (3-2) this Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.

Preview

Jayden Daniels led the way on the Commander's dominating win against the Browns to solidify their four-game win streak. However, those wins have not come against major contenders like the Ravens.

Baltimore has bounced back from an 0-2 start, securing three straight victories, including a thrilling overtime win against the Cincinnati Bengals. With Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry showing no signs of slowing down, stopping this formidable duo will be a significant challenge for any opponent.

Prediction

Spread: Commanders +6.5

Total: Under 51

⏰ 4:25PM ET - Lions vs. Cowboys

The Detroit Lions (3-1) are set to travel to face the Dallas Cowboys (3-2) this Sunday afternoon.

Preview

Detroit is coming off a bye week after defeating Seattle 42-29 at home on September 30, covering the spread as a four-point favorite. Meanwhile, Dallas secured a comeback victory against Pittsburgh, winning 20-17 on Sunday Night Football last week as a 2.5-point underdog. Historically, the Cowboys lead the regular-season series 17-11 and have won the last five matchups, including a narrow 20-19 victory at home in their most recent encounter on December 30, 2023.

The Detroit Lions are 3-1-0 (75%) against the spread and 1-3-0 on the overs. The Dallas Cowboys hold a record of 2-3-0 (40%) against the spread and a 3-2-0 (60%) record on hitting the over.

Prediction

Spread: Lions -3

Total: Under 52

⏰ 8:15PM ET - Bills vs. Jets

The Buffalo Bills (3-2) are hosted by the New York Jets (2-3) in NFL Sunday Night's Primetime game.

Preview

After a promising start to the season, the Buffalo Bills experienced a significant downturn in Weeks 4 and 5, now sitting at 3-2 as they prepare for a divisional clash against the New York Jets on Monday Night Football. While their 3-2 record is sufficient to place them at the top of the AFC East after five weeks, the Bills must address their offensive struggles if they hope to contend for a Super Bowl.

The Jets will be taking the field for their first game without former head coach Robert Saleh, who was let go on Tuesday. Aaron Rodgers has struggled to replicate the MVP form he displayed three years ago, and his chemistry with star receiver Garrett Wilson had been virtually nonexistent until last week's game against Minnesota. Despite these issues, the Jets have managed to maintain a respectable 2-3 record and are hoping to finish week 6 with a .500 record.
