NFL Bettor’s Guide: Week 6 Picks, Point Spreads, and Over-Under Odds

Update 10/14: The spreads and picks for all games but Miami-Green Bay have been posted.

Thanks to Brett Favre’s 4th quarter pick-6, the Jets covered the 4-point spread Monday night and I eeked out another .500+ week.

I was only 7-6, but just as NFL teams simply want to get out of the week with a W, my goal is to get out of the week above .500. And so far, so good. I’ve been over .500 every week this season and currently sit at 42-29-3 picking every game against the spread early in the week.

Let’s run down this week’s spreads – which includes a pretty shocking one in San Francisco – and I’ll give you my quick hit picks for every game.

NFL Week 4 TV Schedule, Odds, Spread Picks, Announcers, and Byes

Update: The NFL Week 17 TV schedule, point spreads, and picks post is up.

——————–

I’m starting to get into a nice rhythm getting these NFL TV schedule and odds posts published. Right as the Monday Night Football game ends, it’s time to hit publish, turn the page, and get ready for the next week.

This week is Week 4 of the 2009 NFL season and there are some great games on the schedule this week. Ravens-Patriots, Saints-Jets, Cowboys-Broncos, Chargers-Steelers, and…

Vikings-Packers.

That’s right. Brett Favre makes his first appearance against his former team this week on Monday Night Football. Get ready, because you won’t be hearing about anything else all week. (And if you’re interested in tickets, follow the link for some great Vikings-Packers tickets resources.)

As always, this post is designed to be the most complete viewing guide you’ll find anywhere. Not only is every game listed (with date, time, network, and announcer pairing) but we also give you the point spread and over-under, as well as an educated guess at a spread pick for each game.

Through three weeks I am 28-20 against the spread. I’ll take it!
