NFL Week 6 Predictions: As the season barrells toward the mid-way point, several teams looked to have post-season spots locked up. Yes, that is presumptuous, but who among us doubts that the Giants, Colts, Vikings, and Saints will still be playing come mid-January? Conversely, there are also several teams that have assured themselves and the general public that they will not be sniffing playoff football anytime soon (i.e. St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Kansas City, Oakland, Buffalo, Cleveland, etc.). Given the current circumstances, Week 6 has but a few premium match-ups; however, those particular pairings are of the utmost intrigue.

New York Giants vs New Orleans Saints (-3): The Giants have been nearly flawless this season, but they have been tested Adding further interest to this contest is the fact that both squads are undefeated on the field and against the spread. New York is 4-0-1 against the number while the Saints have covered four times, all as a favorite (-14, -2.5, -6, and -8). Giants vs Saints Betting Trends: The Saints are 3-7 straight up and against the spread in their last 10 games as a home favorite with a spread between 0 and 3.5. New York is 7-3 straight up in their last 10 games as a road dog with a spread between 0 and 3.5. Baltimore Ravens vs Minnesota Vikings (-2.5): The Vikings are probably not the opponent the Ravens would have picked after losing back-to-back games, nevertheless, Baltimore will square off against Minnesota this week in the Metrodome. John Harbaugh's squad could easily be 5-0 entering this contest but late collapses against the Patriots and Bengals have put them behind the eight ball against one of the best teams in the league. It does not get any easier for the Ravens after this weekend with meetings against Denver, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and Pittsburgh sandwiching a tilt with the Browns. Despite their 5-0 record, the Vikings could really use a win here as well with road games against Pittsburgh and Green Bay coming up. Ravens vs Vikings Betting Trends: Baltimore is 7-3 straight up and against the spread in their last 10 games as a road dog with a spread between 0 and 3.5. Minnesota is 8-2 against the spread and 9-1 straight up in their last 10 games as a home favorite with a spread between 0 and 3.5.

just once (a 33-31 win at Dallas). New York has had the luxury of playing the Bucs, Chiefs, and Raiders the last three weeks. Now they get a rested Saints unit in New Orleans. Sean Payton's squad has proven to be a complete team thus far, winning with a pass happy offense, a grind it out rushing attack, and an opportunistic defense. The Saints will provide Tom Coughlin's club with its most difficult challenge to date. Both of these teams will be in the NFC race regardless of Sunday's outcome, but this game could be about playoff positioning.
