Another week down and another week on the horizon in the NFL. To be honest, this feels like a tricky week on the betting market with little slam-dunk plays currently sitting out there to be had. That’s probably thanks to the Bills, Rams, Vikings, and Eagles all slated for the bye in Week 7. So, with a few of the NFL‘s elite teams on a break, this is where the boys become men and picks become legendary, which will, of course, begin with my five locks of the week.
There, we’re riding with three favorites and two dogs that may or may not share a stadium in the East Rutherford area. Ready to roll? Let’s get to the picks!

Neither one of these quarterbacks play well in prime time. In fact, they stink out loud. Andy Dalton — the projected starter for New Orleans — is 6-18 SU and 9-15 ATS in his career in prime time, which is the worst prime-time record since 2000 among eligible quarterbacks. Meanwhile, Kyler Murray is 0-4 SU and ATS in his last four prime-time games. So it looks like we might be in for another snoozer on Thursday night (Sorry, Bezos!). That said, the pay here is the Cardinals, especially with how banged up New Orleans is projected to be. At the receiver spot, the Saints might get Chris Olave back, but Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry appear to be long shots. As does cornerback Marshon Lattimore, which creates a heck of a return for DeAndre Hopkins from his suspension. Murray should also have plenty of time in the pocket as his top-five-ranked offensive line in terms of pressure rate is facing a Saints defense that ranks dead last in the league in that category.
Projected score: Cardinals 30, Saints 27
The pick: Cardinals -1.5
