Los Angeles Rams vs. San Francisco 49ers Pick - The Los Angeles Rams come into the Bay Area for an NFC West battle with the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football. The 49ers are starting to wane and could really use a win to breathe some life back into their sagging season. The Rams, however, are in a nice little groove at 4-1, coming off another impressive win on Sunday over Washington. Can San Fran get it done at home after dropping games in consecutive weeks there? Or will the Rams continue their fine form? Loot breaks it down here! (8:20PM EST) - 10/18

Indianapolis Colts vs. Cleveland Browns Pick - The Indianapolis Colts take on the Cleveland Browns on Sunday in week five AFC action. Both teams started the season in a worrisome way, but with three straight wins apiece, both the Colts and Browns are looking to make a move. The Colts are getting good play from their defense, with Philip Rivers helping get the offense on the right track. Cleveland is seeing things start to pay off on offense with three straight high-scoring games. Who can get the cover on Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium? Loot breaks it down here! (4:25PM EDT) - 10/11

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Tennessee Titans Pick - The Pittsburgh Steelers come to Nissan Stadium in Nashville for a week four showdown with the Tennessee Titans in a battle of AFC unbeatens. Both teams sit at 3-0 and look to add another notch to their belts. The Steelers look good with their rollicking defense and a resurgent Roethlisberger. But the Titans are in winning form with Derrick Henry and a squad that has been on a nice winning run since late last season. Who can get the job done on Sunday? Loot breaks down the action here! (1PM EST) - 10/4

Tennessee Titans vs. Minnesota Vikings Pick - On Sunday, the Tennessee Titans come into Minneapolis to take on the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings really need a positive development. They haven't merely just lost their first two games, but they've been manhanded through two weeks. They now host a 2-0 Titans team that hasn't covered the spread yet, but is still 2-0 after two hard-fought wins to start the season. Who can get the upper hand this weekend at U.S. Bank Stadium? Click here to find out. (1PM EDT) - 9/27

Denver Broncos vs. Pittsburgh Steelers Pick - The Denver Broncos come to Heinz Field on Sunday for a week two showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Denver had high hopes this season, but some injuries and a week one loss on MNF has them eager to hit the win-column. The problem is that it won't be easy in Pittsburgh against a Steelers team that looked the part of a contender on MNF with a nice road-win over the Giants. In this article, Loot gives his pick of the week. Take a look! (1PM EST) - 9/20

San Francisco 49ers vs. Kansas City Chiefs Pick - It all comes down to this, with the San Francisco 49ers taking on the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV in Miami on February 2. We clearly have the top two teams in their respective conferences and everything you want from a Super Bowl with what figures to be a tightly-contested and evenly-matched contest. There is a lot to like on both sides, with a position against either team not easy to take. In this article, Loot breaks down the game, deliving into the different matchups, before giving his betting pick. Let's finish the season strong! Click here! (6:30PM EST) - 2/2

Super Bowl LIV Early Thoughts - With the smoke just clearing from the conference championships, we now turn our attention to the biggest game in American sports, with Super Bowl LIV coming up on February 2 in Miami. With one of the tightest point spreads ever in the Super Bowl, we have our work cut out in determining the winner between two fine teams like the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs. It's one of those games where a number of different positions can be justified. In this article, Loot attempts to help us organize our early Super Bowl thoughts. Click here to read!

Green Bay Packers vs. San Francisco 49ers Pick - The Green Bay Packers come into Levi's Stadium on Sunday to take on the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship Game. The winner goes to the Super Bowl and both teams will be laying it all on the line. Both teams have ample cause for hope. A week 12 game between the two doesn't really paint the Packers' cause in a great light, but if any team can turn it around, it's Aaron Rodgers and the Packers. Will the Niners show they're the boss in the NFC or will the Packers be able to dial up the right answers? Loot offers his betting pick in this article. Click here! (6:40PM EST) - 1/19

Tennessee Titans vs. Kansas City Chiefs Pick - The AFC is up for grabs on Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium with the Tennessee Titans coming in to face the Kansas City Chiefs to see who will represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. The Titans have ridden Derrick Henry to this spot, as the monster back looks to carry his team to glory. And after also running wild on the Chiefs earlier this season, maybe it's in the cards. But the Chiefs have not lost since and after exploding against the Texans on Sunday, they don't look like an easy team to derail right now. Loot offers his take in this article. Take a look! (3:05PM EST) - 1/19

Seattle Seahawks vs. Green Bay Packers Pick - In the final divisional playoff game of the weekend, the NFC takes center stage, with the Seattle Seahawks coming into Lambeau Field to take on the Green Bay Packers. It seems like the overall enthusiasm on the Packers isn't that high, despite a 13-win season. They look to make their playoff presence felt this week. But against Seattle, it won't be easy, especially with how the Seahawks got back on the winning track with a nice road-win on Philly in the wild card round. Who will get the upper hand in this one? Loot breaks it down here! (6:40PM EST) - 1/12

Houston Texans vs. Kansas City Chiefs Pick - The Houston Texans come into Arrowhead on Sunday for an AFC Divisional Playoff showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs., It wasn't the dominant season they had hoped for, but the Chiefs won their last 6 to get home-field and now look to start a deep postseason run. It won't be easy, facing a Houston team that showed a lot of guts on Saturday with a come-from-behind win over the Bills. Are the Chiefs a little too much or can the Texans find the right answers? Loot breaks down this game here, along with his ATS pick! Check it out! (3:05PM EST) - 1/12

Tennessee Titans vs. Baltimore Ravens Pick - In the first AFC Divisional Playoff game of the weekend, the Tennessee Titans come up north to take on the Baltimore Ravens. The Titans thrived on Saturday with an upset win over the Patriots, as they now look for their second upset in as many weeks. With Derrick Henry running wild, you can't count them out. But they have their hands full with the top seed in the AFC, a Ravens team that has won 12 games in a row. They look to be the class of the conference, but can the Titans give them a run for their money? Or will the Ravens resume their dominant ways this week at home? Loot offers his betting guidance in this piece. Take a look! (8:15PM EST) - 1/11

Minnesota Vikings vs. San Francisco 49ers Pick - In the opening divisional playoff game of the weekend, the Minnesota Vikings come into Levi's Stadium to take on the NFC's top seed in the San Francisco 49ers. After beating a 13-win team on the road in the wild card, the Vikes look to spring another upset this week and to their creidt, they looked good on Sunday, as most of their pieces are back in place. But standing in their way is a home Niners team that looks to make their postseason presence felt this week. Who will cover the number? Loot breaks it down here! (4:35PM EST) - 1/11

Seattle Seahawks vs. Philadelphia Eagles Pick - Wild Card weekend wraps up with a great matchup in Philly, with the Seattle Seahawks taking on the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday afternoon. Seattle had the better season overall, but it was the Eagles who finished the season stronger, winning their division and now hosting a playoff game. But with all the injuries, are they going to be easy pickings in the postseason? Or are the Seahawks compromised enough to make them a lesser version of what we saw a month ago? Loot offers his take in this article! (4:40PM EST) - 1/5

Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans Saints Pick - Sunday leads off with a potentially-explosive NFC Wild Card Playoff game with the Minnesota Vikings taking on the New Orleans Saints at the Superdome. The Saints have to host a Wild Card game despite a 13-win season, but have finished the season strongly and look to be major contenders. Can the Vikings do anything about it? They sure did a few years ago, but a lot has since changed. Will the Saints romp their way to a big win or is there a case to be made for the Vikes? Loot breaks down the game here and offers his wagering counsel. Check it out! (1:05PM EST) - 1/5

Tennessee Titans vs. New England Patriots Pick - In the second AFC Wild Card Playoff game of the day, the Tennessee Titans come into the dragon's lair in Foxborough to take on the New England Patriots. For the Titans, they gutted their way into a wild card spot, overcoming a lot on the season with a big assist from rushing champ Derrick Henry. They look to pounce on a Pats' team that hasn't been great lately, playing in their first wild card game in a decade. Will the Titans show some of the heart they had this season and give the Patriots a run? Or is this postseason again the time when the Pats kick it into gear? Loot breaks down the game here! (8:15PM EST) - 1/5

Buffalo Bills vs. Houston Texans Pick - In the first playoff game of the postseason, the Buffalo Bills come into NRG Stadium for a wild card showdown with the Houston Texans. The Texans again won their division and are at home, but still have a lot to prove. For the Bills, in only their second postseason appearance in the past two decades, they also look to make a statement with a big win. Will the Texans fire at home? Or will the Bills' defense show up and make their presence known? Loot offers his betting pick in this article. Take a look! (4:35PM EST) - 1/4

San Francisco 49ers vs. Seattle Seahawks Pick - On Sunday, the San Francisco 49ers come to CenturyLink to take on the Seattle Seahawks. The stakes are high. Both teams are in the playoffs, but will be in very different positions based on the result of this game. The winner will get a premier playoff spot, while the loser will have to take to the road on wild card weekend. The stakes are high. Check out Loot's piece to see who might be in a better position to cover the spread this week in Seattle. (4:25PM EST) - 12/29

Tennessee Titans vs. Houston Texans Pick - On Sunday, the Tennessee Titans come to NRG Stadium to take on the Houston Texans. The Texans beat the Titans a few weeks ago, but the stakes are higher this week, with Tennessee facing a win-and-you're-in scenario in this divisional battle. Houston could maybe alter their postseason position slightly, but the urgency will definitely be in the Titans' corner. Will it be enough to notch the win and cover this week in Houston? Loot offers his take in this article. Check it out! (1PM EST) - 12/29

Green Bay Packers vs. Minnesota Vikings Pick - On Monday Night Football, the Green Bay Packers take on the Minnesota Vikings. It's a game that could determine the NFC North with the 11-3 Packers coming into Minneapolis to take on the 10-4 Vikes. The first game was a close one, won by the Packers at Lambeau, but a lot has changed since that showdown. Both teams won on Sunday and carry some good momentum into this high-stakes contest. Will the defense of the Packers again curb a strong Vikings' offense? Or will the Vikings dial up the right answers at home this time? Loot offers his take here! (8:15PM EST) - 12/23

Los Angeles Rams vs. San Francisco 49ers Pick - On Saturday Night Football, we will see an NFC West matchup with the Los Angeles Rams taking on the San Francisco 49ers. The Niners suffered a puzzling loss to Atlanta last week and are in danger of squandering a great start to the season, as they now need help to win the division. A good start would be a big home win this week. Coming into town is a Rams team that saw some good momentum end last week in a crushing loss to the Cowboys. Who can shake it off in time for this big showdown at Levi's Stadium? Loot offers his betting counsel in this piece. (8:15PM EST) - 12/21

Buffalo Bills vs. New England Patriots Pick - In AFC East action from Foxborough on Saturday, the Buffalo Bills battle the New England Patriots. The potential stakes here are the AFC East, as the long-suffering Bills take on their perennial tormentor in the Patriots. After losing to them narrowly earlier in the season, a Bills team coming off a great win over the Steelers on Sunday night looks to even the score on Sunday in a game that could go a long way toward helping them turn the corner as a franchise. Loot breaks down the game in this article. Take a look! (4:30PM EST) - 12/21

Houston Texans vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Pick - In the first of three Saturday games in week 16, the Houston Texans come to Raymond James Stadium to battle the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. On Sunday, both of these teams won. The Bucs won their fourth in a row with a win at Detroit to go to 7-7 on the season. They host a Texans team that went on the road themselves last week, taking control of the AFC South with a big win over Tennessee. Who can get it done this week? Loot breaks down the game here. Check it out! (1PM EST) - 12/21

Indianapolis Colts vs. New Orleans Saints Pick - On Monday Night Football from the Superdome, the Indianapolis Colts come to face the New Orleans Saints. Both teams are in very different stations, with the Saints playoff-bound and the Colts nosediving. But each team needs to recover from a painful loss on Sunday. The Saints lost in the last seconds in the game of the year against the 49ers. The Colts dumped their third straight, but could get their season back on track this week. Will the Saints be too much or are the Colts ready to spring the surprise? Loot offers his take in this piece. Take a look! (8:15PM EST)

Buffalo Bills vs. Pittsburgh Steelers Pick - The Buffalo Bills come into Heinz Field for a big AFC showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football. The Bills are looking to atone for a loss to the Ravens last week, but with their defense and 9-4 record, they will be a strong challenge to the Steelers. But to their credit, the Steelers have defied all odds this season, winning seven of their last eight, including a road win over the Cardinals on Sunday, to get to 8-5. More wins and they can start honing in on what would have seemed like a most unlikely playoff berth. Who gets it done on SNF? (8:20PM EST) - 12/15

New York Jets vs. Baltimore Ravens Pick - Thursday Night Football features a good AFC matchup, with the upstart New York Jets taking on the scorching Baltimore Ravens. It was a routine game on Sunday for the Ravens with another win, their ninth in a row. In beating a good Buffalo team on the road, they added another notch to their belts and are now the top seed in the AFC. With four wins in five games, the Jets have shown some signs of life and look to spring the massive upset on TNF. Can they make a run at the spread or will the Ravens once again go on a rampage? Loot offers his betting counsel in this article. (8:20PM EST) - 12/12

New York Giants vs. Philadelphia Eagles Pick - The New York Giants take on the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football in NFC East action. Normally when a 2-10 team takes on a 5-7 one, it fails to register much of a ripple. But with the Eagles a game back in their division, this game has actual ramifications. The Eagles really hit a new low on Sunday, falling to the Dolphins and failing to take advantage of Dallas losing this week. They look to make it better at home against a nosediving Giants team that dropped its eighth straight on Sunday. Loot offers his take here! (8:15PM EST) - 12/9

Seattle Seahawks vs. Los Angeles Rams Pick - In NFC West action from the LA Coliseum, the Seattle Seahawks take on the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday Night Football. This is the second of two games between these divisional rivals, with the Seahawks having won the first game by a point in Seattle. The Seahawks are really rolling now at 10-2, having taken the lead in the division. At 7-5 and with a crowded wild card picture, the Rams really need this one. Will the Rams use some newfound momentum on offense to get over the hump this time? Or will Seattle put another notch on their belt, as they build their postseason case? Loot offers his take in this article. (8:20PM EST) - 12/8

Dallas Cowboys vs. Chicago Bears Pick - The Dallas Cowboys come to Soldier Field to face the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football. Despite both teams being 6-6, it would appear it is the the Cowboys are the ones who have a future, as they lead the NFC East. You couldn't tell by the way they're playing, with Dallas having dumped two straight. Meanwhile, the Bears are now at home, coming off two wins in a row. Who can get it done on the short week? Loot breaks down the action in this article. (8:20PM EST) - 12/5

Minnesota Vikings vs. Seattle Seahawks Pick - Monday Night Football features a red-hot NFC matchup, with the Minnesota Vikings taking on the Seattle Seahawks. This promises to be an eventful MNF game, whoever comes out on top. Both teams have been in good form and still have big things on the table this season. Can Seattle withstand the powerful Vikings' offense? And can the Vikings' "D" deal with Russell Wilson and Company? Loot offers his betting take in this article. Take a look! (8:15PM EST) - 12/2

New England Patriots vs. Houston Texans Pick - Sunday Night Football features an AFC battle of first-place teams, with the 10-1 Patriots coming into NRG Stadium to take on the Houston Texans. Houston is coming off the long week where they scored a meaningful win over division rival Indy. A win here would really be a stamp of validation against a tough defending Super Bowl Champion in the Patriots. After another win where their defense dominated, the Pats now look to put the final touches on their big playoff run. Will the Texans thrive at home or are they up against it this week on Sunday night? Loot offers his take here! (8:20PM EST) - 12/1

New Orleans Saints vs. Atlanta Falcons Pick - On Thursday Night Football, the Thanksgiving edition, the New Orleans Saints take on the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. A few weeks back, the 14-point dog Falcons sprung the surprise at the Superdome, beating the Saints by 17. But at 9-2 and coming off two nice wins, the Saints are rolling and have playoff tie-ins to worry about. The Falcons saw an end to their modest two-game streak on Sunday in a tough loss to Tampa. Who can deliver the cover on Thursday? Loot breaks it down in this article. (8:20PM EST) - 11/28

Buffalo Bills vs. Dallas Cowboys Pick - Also on Thanksgiving Day is a nice battle between the Buffalo Bills and Dallas Cowboys. The Bills have somewhat quietly flown out of the gates with an 8-3 record. Can they keep it going or will they start running into resistance against the better teams they face? That also applies to a Dallas team that fell to the Patriots last week and while they still lead their division, could really use a confidence-building win against a good team like the Bills. Who will get the upper hand on Thanksgiving? Loot offers his take here! (4:30PM EST) - 11/28

Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions Pick - It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without a Lions game in Detroit and on Turkey Day, we will see them face NFC North rivals the Chicago Bears. At Soldier Field a few weeks back, the Bears emerged victorious and won last week, as they look to get on a little run. Still, with their offense, they keep a lot of games close and evem a Lions' team without Matthew Stafford and some other pieces could be competitive in this spot. In this article, Loot breaks down this game and offers his ATS pick! Check it out. (12:30PM EST) - 11/28

Baltimore Ravens vs. Los Angeles Rams Pick - The Baltimore Ravens come to the Coliseum to take on the Los Angeles Rams on Monday Night Football. The Ravens are 8-2, winners of 6 straight with some terrifying beatings over good teams in recent weeks. After a 34-point win over the Texans, they now come across the country and into the NFC to take on the LA Rams. Sure, it hasn't quite gone according to plan for the Rams this season, but some recent wins and a better showing on the defensive side of the ball has given them some hope heading down the stretch of the regular season. Loot breaks down the MNF game this week in this article. Check it out! (8:20PM EST) - 11/25

Green Bay Packers vs. San Francisco 49ers Pick - The Green Bay Packers come to Levi's Stadium for a Sunday Night Football matchup with the San Francisco 49ers. Among the top contenders in the NFC with a combined record of 17-3, these teams could be seeing each other later down the road. Coming off the bye, the Packers look to add a real notch to their belt by beating the 9-1 Niners. But San Francisco could put a lot of wind in their sails with a win over a good team in good form. Loot breaks down the game here and offers his ATS pick. Take a look. (8:20PM EST) - 11/24

Indianapolis Colts vs. Houston Texans Pick - Thursday Night Football features an AFC South battle with first place on the line, as the Indianapolis Colts take on the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium. The Colts won last week to get to 6-4, taking advantage of a Houston team that had the misfortune of running into the Ravens last week. With a 41-7 defeat, the Texans will be looking to make amends in a divisional game where the stakes are high. Will they be able to win at home against a team that beat them a month ago and three straight times overall? Or will the Colts once again serve notice that they're still the Texans' master? Loot breaks the action down here! (8:20PM EST) - 11/21

Kansas City Chiefs vs. Los Angeles Chargers Pick - Monday Night Football features an AFC West battle from an exotic locale, as the Kasnas City Chiefs take on the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chiefs got Patrick Mahomes back last week, but it wasn't enough, as their "D" collapsed in a loss to the Titans. Things weren't any better for the Bolts, also losers in a close game, falling to the Raiders and now facing a crisis at 4-6. Will the Chiefs be able to close the show this week or will their defense let them down again? Can the Chargers even take advantage of it with injuries having them looking ragged for most of the season? Loot offers his take on this battle from Estadio Azteca in this article. Check it out! (8:15PM EST) - 11/18

Chicago Bears vs. Los Angeles Rams Pick - On Sunday Night Football, the Chicago Bears take on the Los Angeles Rams at the LA Coliseum. Unlike last season, neither team is in a comfortable spot heading into the second half. Both teams could really use a win. The Rams, after falling short to the Steelers last week, look to go on a spurt, starting at home against a Bears team that has underwhlemed in 2019. On Sunday, they did manage to break a losing streak, but still face a long road back. Who can get it done in the City of Angels this week? Loot offers his ATS breakdown in this article. (8:20PM EST) - 11/17

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cleveland Browns Pick - In AFC North action from FirstEnergy, the Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Cleveland Browns in Thursday Night Football action in week 11. The Steelers are red-hot, almost magically turning around a season that looked headed right into the drain. After scoring their fourth win in a row, they now go into Cleveland to face the Browns, a team that finally showed some life in a tough win over the Bills on Sunday. They look for a spurt of their own now, but it won't be a breeze against a Steelers team that found its edge and can make it hard on mistake-prone offenses like the Browns. Loot offers his ATS pick in this article. Take a look! (8:20PM EST) - 11/14

Seattle Seahawks vs. San Francisco 49ers Pick - On Monday Night Football, the NFC West takes center stage, as the top dogs in the division do battle at Levi's Stadium, with the Seattle Seahawks taking on the San Francisco 49ers. At 8-0 the Niners are flying high. But standing in their way is a tough 7-2 Seattle team that might be throwing some things at the Niners that SF hasn't seen this season. By the same token, Seattle will be seeing a stronger 49ers team than they've seen in recent seasons. Who can get the upper hand this week? Loot breaks down the action in this article. Take a look! (8:15PM EST) - 11/11

Minnesota Vikings vs. Dallas Cowboys Pick - On Sunday Night Football, the Minnesota Vikings take on the Dallas Cowboys in a high-stakes NFC battle in Texas. After a three-game slide, the Cowboys are ready to make noise, having taken the lead in the NFC East with two straight wins. But after a loss to the Chiefs in agonizing fashion last week, the Vikings are looking to get back on the winning track. After working hard to forge a winning path, the Vikes will be reluctant to relinquish all the momentum. It should be a hard-fought battle. Loot gives us the lowdown on the spread here! (8:20PM EST) - 11/10

Los Angeles Chargers vs. Oakland Raiders Pick - On Thursday Night Football, AFC West rivals the Los Angeles Chargers and the Oakland Raiders do battle at the Coliseum for the last time. The Chargers are in the midst of trying to right the ship, as two straight wins have them to 4-5, as they look to get to .500 this week. Standing in their way is a 4-4 Oakland bunch looking to start putting together a postseason run, with their improved offense and greater fire they've shown in '19. Who can get the upper hand in the Bay this week? Loot breaks down the Thursday Night Game here! (8:20PM EST) - 11/7

Miami Dolphins vs. Pittsburgh Steelers Pick - OK, maybe it wasn't what the league had in mind when scheduling these games, but the Miami Dolphins come into Heinz Field on MNF to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers. At a combined 2-10, these teams haven't really fired, especially an 0-6 Miami team that is the worst team in the league. Pittsburgh, however, getting more accustomed to their predicament, has seen their defense rise and can push it to 3-4 this week coming off a bye at home against the lowly Dolphins. But is it wise to lay a lot of points on a depreciated Steelers team? Or can Miami be scrappy in this context and keep this one respectable? Look answers these questions here. Have a look-see! (8:15PM EDT) - 10/28

Green Bay Packers vs. Kansas City Chiefs Pick - We look forward to a good game on Sunday Night Football, with the 6-1 Green Bay Packers taking on the 5-2 Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs were able to put their skid to an end last Thursday with a big dominant win over Denver on the road. But in losing Patrick Mahomes and him being out of action for the time being, they need to make it work with Matt Moore behind center. And being at less than full power against a streaking Packers and a red-hot Aaron Rodgers could be tough. Loot breaks down the action in this article. Check it out! (8:20PM EDT) - 10/27

Washington Redskins vs. Minnesota Vikings Pick - On Thursday Night Football, the Washington Redskins come to Minneapolis to take on the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikes are pretty hot right now and have won three in a row. The defense is showing its fangs, Dalvin Cook is the leading rusher in the league, and Kirk Cousins has kicked the aerial game into high gear. Meanwhile, the Redskins are coming off a shutout loss at home, suffering from a lack of offensive firepower, relying too much on their defense with poor results. Loot breaks down this matchup in this article, offering his ATS pick for Thursday Night Football. Take a look! (8:20PM EDT) - 10/24

New England Patriots vs. New York Jets Pick - On Monday Night Football, the New England Patriots take their 6-0 record into MetLife Stadium to take on the New York Jets in AFC West action. New England is really cruising, with Tom Brady still doing his thing, along with a defense that looks very strong this season. The Jets, meanwhile, won their first game of the season last week with quarterback Sam Darnold returning. They beat Dallas and look to go on a little run in their second try at the Pats this season. Who can get the cover this week on MNF? Check out Loot's pick in this article! (8:15PM EDT) - 10/21

Philadelphia Eagles vs. Dallas Cowboys Pick - On Sunday Night Football, the NFC East takes center stage from Arlington, with the Philadelphia Eagles taking on the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys have lost three straight, putting a nice 3-0 start to rest. They need to stop the bleeding now and it might not be so easy with a struggling Philly team that is also 3-3, a team with big hopes that needs a positive development in a major way. Will the Cowboys be refreshed being at home in their own division or have the injuries taken too big of a toll? Can Philly cut down on mistakes and get better play from their defense? Loot breaks it all down in this article. (8:20PM EDT) - 10/20

Kansas City Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos Pick - The AFC West takes center stage on Thursday Night Football, with the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the Denver Broncos at Mile High. This matchup carries some extra punch this week, considering the stark reversals in fortune for both teams. Denver, not able to buy a win early on, has won 2 in a row, riding their strong defense to a new level of respect. They're now at home awaiting a Chiefs team that has lost two in a row in a most-perplexing slide. Can they stop the bleeding? Or is the locale and opponent all wrong for a turnaround this week? Loot breaks the game down here, along with his ATS pick. (8:20PM EDT) - 10/17

Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers Pick - The NFC North takes center stage on Monday Night Football, with the Detroit Lions coming into Lambeau to face the Green Bay Packers. Both teams seem resurgent this season. Detroit is coming off a bye week after nearly beating the Chiefs in their only loss of the season. They take on a Packers team that just beat up Dallas and looks like a contender early this season. Will Detroit serve notice that they're for real or are the Packers poised to pounce? Loot offers his ATS pick here! (8:15PM EDT) - 10/14

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Los Angeles Chargers Pick - Sunday Night Football features a pair of teams who haven't seen things go their way in 2019 through five games. At the beginning of the season, these were two potential contenders, before inconsistent play and a slew of injuries cost them their edge. The 2-3 Chargers are really in a must-win spot at home against a spiraling Steelers team that is now down to their third-string quarterback. Who can get on the good foot this week and get the cover in Carson? Loot breaks the game down here! (8:20PM EDT) - 10/13

New York Giants vs. New England Patriots Pick - This week on Thursday Night Football, the New York Giants face the New England Patriots in a big week six matchup. The Giants had been doing pretty well with rookie Daniel Jones at quarterback, but came down to earth some against the Vikings on Sunday and look to get back on the winning track this week.

Denver did well to get off to a 2-1 start, but a flat showing against Baltimore on Sunday has them feeling a bit urgent in this home-spot.

Another big question is if the top seed in the conference can make a run without Carson Wentz?

They have playoff experience and a lot of the kind of balance that can work this time of year. The Saints, however, are NFC South champs for a reason and will be a big handful this week at home, hungry to atone for a rough recent patch of seasons.
