Cash's Week #6 Picks

2013 Record: Overall (8-7-1)/Cowboys picks (4-1)

Redskins +6 At DAL, WASH/DAL UNDER 52.5, Jags +27 At DEN, Saints +3 At NE

Redskins +6 At DAL, WASH/DAL UNDER 52.5

WHAT I HOPE HAPPENS IS THAT THE COWBOYS HAVE FOUND THE WAY THEY ARE GOING TO PLAY OFFENSE FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON…WE DON’T GIVE A CRAP WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO, BECAUSE WE’RE GOING TO SCORE 40 TODAY…

 BUT MORE LIKELY, THEY WILL REVERT BACK TO MORE CONSERVATIVE WAYS AGAINST TEAMS THEY AREN’T AS AFRAID OF….

 THE REDSKINS ARE GOING TO RUN THE BALL PLENTY…AS WILL THE COWBOYS…THE CLOCK WILL BE MOVING MUCH MORE QUICKLY THAN LAST WEEKS CLOCK DID…52.5 the second highest O/L line on the board this weekend….(behind 53.5 of the Denver/jags game….and AHEAD OF THE SAINTS/PATRIOTS game 50.5)…so My OFFICIAL prediction on this game is the UNDER…

 But I'm also taking the Redskins as well +6....because if you believe that this game is going to go under the number than it’s hard to see how a redskins team that’s scored at least 20 points in each game is going to lose by 6….

 SPECIAL TEAMS….KAI FORBATH HAS MISSED THE LAST THREE GAMES…HE MISSED HIS ONLY FG ATTEMPT IN WEEK ONE BEFORE INJURING HIS GROIN IN WEEK 2….UNCERTAINTY IN THE KICKING GAME MIGHT CAUSE A MISS EARLY THAT BURNS WASHINGTON LATE…

 So my game pick is 24-21 Dallas…but I’m much more comfortable in the redskins +6 and the Under 52.5

Jags +27 At DEN

I've already done a breakdown of the biggest point spreads in history, and why I will almost always take the points in these situations...but let me add some realatively recent news to the history.

Blaine Gabbart is out this week.  To me, that's good news.  I'd rather have Chad Henne, as a veteran, if I'm trying to cover a point spread like this.  Also, Justin Blackmon came back last week and seemed to prove that his hot play at the end of last season was going to continue.

The threat of a passing game will allow some space for MJD, who has had none this week...PLUS, Jags GM David Caldwell sought out MJD this week to let him know he will not be traded and that his leadership is key to this franchises future...I think he will play accordingly.  Gimmie the Jags and the points...

Saints +3 At NE

If you follow me you'll know I love the feeling of having the team that I think is better getting points. And I think the Saints are better than the Pats.  

Pats have beaten EJ Manual in his first start as a rookie, Gino Smith in his 2nd, Josh Freeman before he was cut, Matt Ryan and a Falcons team that we didn't know was bad, and Andy Daulton last week....not exactly HOF'ers...and Daulton beat them....(the only actual good team of the bunch....Pats got 6 points)...

Drew Brees is a step up from the competition they have played...and the weather in NE is mild today....gimmie the Saints and the points...
