With a third of the season left, it's still a year for everyone in the NFL. Even the best, most resolute team in the league has glaring weaknesses, which makes for one of the most fascinating seasons in recent memory.
This week's picks are downright brutal, and with so few matches it's nearly impossible to find a clear winner. Sunday afternoon's Commanders vs. Ravens game might perfectly sum up what has become the most captivating game of 2024.
Here are two teams that share the same geography, but with polarizing expectations heading into 2024. We knew Baltimore would be a good team, especially if Lamar Jackson could find a little more offensive stability. Derrick Henry has done just that and enabled this team's meteoric rise, but wide receivers aren't without their problems.
Meanwhile, the managers were widely pegged as basement dwellers in the NFC East alongside the Giants. Currently at 4-1, they are a legitimate threat. Washington's offensive line has one of the best defenses in the league, featuring Jaden Daniels and Kliff Kingsbury, and plays efficient football to win games.
It's incredible that these teams are so evenly matched, but here we are. These are all week 6 picks.
