Now, the focus shifts to the weekend as a whole, and as your attention shifts to the weekend, we'll try to find some upset specials. here it is SB Nations Upset favorite for Week 6 of the 2024 NFL season.
New York Giants vs. Cincinnati Bengals — Mark Schofield
My quest for the first correct upset prediction continues…
last week we indianapolis coltsI understand how it is. I still haven't gotten one of these right, but I'm moving forward.
of cincinnati bengals He seems to be doing well on the offensive side of the ball, scoring 33 points or more in each of his last three games. However, the problem lies in the defensive side of soccer. Despite their scoring record over the past three weeks, Cincinnati lost two of those three games. The Bengals defense allowed 38 points to the Commanders, 24 points to the Panthers, and 41 points in last Sunday's overtime loss to the Ravens.
That defense took another hit this week when they lost Dax Hill to a knee injury for the season.
The Giants had a surprising win in Seattle, and in that win, Daniel Jones played his best football of the season. I'm on the Giants team for this game.
New York Jets vs. Buffalo Bills — Jared Mueller
The Jets are in “shuffle the Titanic deck chairs” mode, but Aaron Rodgers will have a point to prove against a Bills team that has given up over 340 yards per game so far this season. . Rodgers may not be able to add to the box score, but he will look to take advantage of Buffalo's poor run defense and take advantage of it with deep balls when time allows.
Additionally, Rodgers needs to show his former and potential future teammate Davante Adams that his change in New York was the right move.
The Bills are a very good team (6th overall in DVOA), but their record isn't quite there. Buffalo may be feeling the pressure here on Monday Night Football due to questions about Sean McDermott's decision-making last week.
Teams often receive a boost from the firing of a coach, which bodes well for the Jets, but a coach under intense scrutiny could have a negative impact on the Bills. This combination will cause a huge upset in prime time.
Washington's manager for the Baltimore Ravens — James Deiter
This could very well be the game of the week, and it could very well be the upset of the week. We know what the Ravens are – they're more or less the same team they were for most of Lamar Jackson's career, but in 2024, they'll be playing ball up the middle with Derrick Henry. They go deeper thanks to their ability to hammer into the. Adds more depth to your attack.
So why were the commanders able to win? They look really, really good in this contest.
Linebacker play will be critical to containing Jackson and Henry, and the manager boasts two of the league's best tackling linebackers in Bobby Wagner and Frankie Lube. Their ability to close gaps and work laterally bodes well for Washington's ability to limit runs.
And on offense, the Commanders boast a strong running game of their own, with QB Jaden Daniels playing error-free football under center. For an opportunistic defensive team like Baltimore, this is a rough matchup.
This sets the stage for what could be a big win for the coaches against an AFC team that could be in the Super Bowl this season.
