NFL Week 6 picks: Experts weigh Seahawks-Broncos, Jaguars-Texans and other key games
CBS Sports analysts Jordan Dajani and Jared Dubin offer their predictions for Week 6 matchups, including Seattle at Denver, Houston in London and several prime-time contests.
CBS Sports writers Jordan Dajani and Jared Dubin shared their Week 6 NFL game selections, citing recent performance trends and injury reports. For the Seattle Seahawks at Denver Broncos, Dajani noted the Broncos have the league’s most comeback wins since 2025 but expects Seattle to win 23-20, while Dubin projected a 24-16 victory for the Seahawks, highlighting Denver’s offensive struggles and missing defensive back Patrick Surtain II.
In the London matchup between the Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars, Dajani favored an upset by Houston, pointing to C.J. Stroud’s 21 twenty-yard completions and the Texans’ strong divisional record away from home. Dubin, however, gave the edge to Jacksonville, citing the Jaguars’ familiarity with the overseas venue and Houston’s defensive issues.
For the Chicago Bears at Atlanta Falcons, Dajani backed the Falcons, expecting a 30-27 win after the return of quarterback Caleb Williams and running back Bijan Robinson. Dubin preferred Chicago, predicting a 23-17 victory if Williams and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa are healthy.
The Baltimore Ravens visiting the Cleveland Browns drew a Ravens favor from both analysts; Dajani predicted a 26-20 win, mentioning Lamar Jackson’s expected return, while Dubin forecast a 31-14 result, emphasizing Cleveland’s injury-laden roster.
Against the Philadelphia Eagles, Dajani took the Panthers at +1.5, referencing the Eagles’ scheduling disadvantage after an international game, whereas Dubin simply expressed doubt about the Panthers’ chances and left the pick open.
On Sunday night, the Dallas Cowboys faced the Green Bay Packers. Dajani gave the Packers a 27-24 edge, noting quarterback Jordan Love’s recent performance, and Dubin also backed Green Bay, predicting a 33-28 win.
Finally, in the Monday night game between the Washington Commanders and San Francisco 49ers, Dajani favored the 49ers by 7.5 points, citing their strong ATS record in prime-time contests, while also criticizing the Commanders’ clock-management in their previous tie.
