Carolina Panthers versus Chicago Bears
The Panthers are coming off a home loss to the Philadelphia Eagles and sit at 4-2 for the season. They are a 3.5 point road favorite versus the 2-4 Chicago Bears. Carolina won the last meeting between the teams in 2014 as the favorite. The Panthers hold a decided +29 to +3 advantage on the Power Ranking Indicator. What’s worse for the Bears is they are -9.4 and “dead” status on the Team Strength Oscillator. Look for the Panthers to get back on track and cover the spread.
New Orleans Saints versus Green Bay Packers
While the Packers are generally tough at home, this is clearly not the same team without Aaron Rodgers are the helm. They come in at 4-2 and a 4-point underdog against the 3-2 Saints. While Packers still hold a 14-point advantage in the Power Ranking Indicator, they are on a downward trend versus a positive trend for New Orleans. Similarly, the Saints are “hot” on the Team Strength Oscillator, while the Packers on on the decline. The Packers will have difficulty scoring. The Saints are third in Team Volatility, making them a good bet as the favorite. Look for the Saints to win and move to 4-2 on the season.
Washington Redskins versus Philadelphia Eagles
The Redskins enter Philadelphia coming off a win over the 49ers, while the Eagles are arguably the best team in the NFC at the moment, at 5-1. The Eagles won the previous meeting on opening day in Washington. While the teams are nearly even in terms of the Team Strength Oscillator, the Eagles hold a commanding +28 to +12 advantage in the Power Ranking Indicator. A 6-point advantage at home, look for the Eagles to take down the Redskins in a hard-fought battle, improving to 6-1.
Baltimore Ravens versus Minnesota Vikings
The Vikings enter at 4-2 after handling the Packers last week, while the Ravens are at 3-3. Baltimore won the last meeting between the teams as a favorite in 2013. Although the Vikings are a 4.5 point favorite, the Ravens hold a +6.9 to +3.93 edge on the Team Strength Oscillator and a 7-point advantage in terms of the Power Ranking Indicator. Although the Vikings are the favorites, I look at the indicators and see an upset in the making. Go with the Ravens.
Seattle Seahwaks at New York Giants
Coming off a shocking win over the Broncos for their first win of the season, the Giants are a 7.5 point home underdog against the Seahawks, who come at 3-2. Seattle is tied for sixth in Team Volatility, further strengthening the argument to bet on them. They also hold edges in the Team Strength Oscillator (+4.93 to -2.62) and the Power Ranking Indicator (+12 to +1). While it’s possible the Giants can put together another great effort, it’s likely not going to be enough against Seattle. Look for the Seahawks to win and cover.
Atlanta Falcons versus New England Patriots
In a rematch of last season’s Super Bowl, the Falcons are entering at 3-2, coming off a loss, while the Patriots escaped with a win over the Jets. Atlanta is at +27 on the Power Ranking Indicator but on the decline, while the defending Super Bowl champs are +16 and no the rise. The Patriots haven’t played stellar defense but are at home and hard to pick against a Tom Brady lead team at home. Look for the Patriots to win and cover the 4-point spread.
