15 bold predictions for NFL Week 6: Jaguars win, Herbert beats Lamar
11. Chargers QB Justin Herbert outduels Lamar Jackson in NFL MVP battle
The Los Angeles Chargers and MVP candidate Justin Herbert head to Baltimore this week to take on MVP candidate Lamar Jackson.
Right now, there aren’t two individual players in the entire NFL playing better than Herbert and Jackson. Unfortunately, this game is being played in the 12:00 window when everyone likes to watch the Red Zone channel.
There should be plenty of scoring in this one, plenty of incredible action on both sides, but I think this is a week where the Ravens’ luck runs out a bit. The Chargers have been white-hot other than a loss to the Dallas Cowboys, who look like legit contenders in the NFC.
The Ravens have had some close calls they’ve been able to win thanks to Lamar, but their luck runs out this week against Herbert and the Chargers.
10. Giants WR Kadarius Toney racks up 200 yards of offense
Over the last two weeks, Giants rookie Kadarius Toney has 275 total yards of offense and has been one of the most heavily targeted receivers in the league.
With Saquon Barkley and Kenny Golladay going down with some injuries in Week 5, it could be the Kadarius Toney show in Week 6.
This bold prediction hinges potentially on Daniel Jones being healthy but right now, he’s in concussion protocol.
Even if it’s Mike Glennon in Week 6, Toney should be featured this weekend.
