NFL Week 6 Same Game Parlay Odds, Picks & Predictions (2022)
Each week, I'll provide my favorite Sunday parlay and my favorite same-game parlay options for each game. Without further ado, here are this week's parlay picks.
Week 6 Parlay
- Pittsburgh Steelers +8.5
- Miami Dolphins +3.5
- Seattle Seahawks +2.5
- Odds: +600
This weekâs parlay requires a strong stomach, as weâre taking a few ugly underdogs. The Steelers are coming off an embarrassing loss, but this is exactly when you back them. Mike Tomlin is 14-3-3 ATS as a home underdog, and Iâm not convinced Tampa Bayâs offense has been restored to normalcy.
Betting Miami is essentially betting on third-string QB Skylar Thompson. But Thompson wasnât horrible in relief of Teddy Bridgewater last week and had the Dolphins within two points in the second half. With a full week to prepare, Iâm confident Miami can move the ball against an underwhelming Vikings defense.
Finally, Iâm surprised to see Seattle catching points here, as Arizona has done nothing to deserve to be laying points on the road. The Seahawksâ offense hasnât been the lifeless corpse everyone expected, and they could jump on the slow-starting Cardinals.
New York Jets at Green Bay Packers -7.5, Total 45.5
- Under 45.5
- Aaron Jones over 60.5 rushing yards
- Zach Wilson to throw an INT
- Odds: +441
Green Bay should be highly motivated after an inexcusable loss to the Giants in London. I expect them to emphasize the running game against a Jets defense that ranks 19th in run defense DVOA. That means a heavy dose of Aaron Jones, who has topped this total in the three games heâs gotten at least 13 carries. Finally, Green Bayâs defense should be able to force a mistake out of Wilson in what Iâd expect to be a maximum-effort game.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers -8.5 at Pittsburgh Steelers, Total 45
- Steelers +8.5
- Chase Claypool under 3.5 receptions
- Leonard Fournette under 61.5 rushing yards
- Odds: +593
Iâm not saying the Steelers are going to win this game outright. But I wouldâve pegged this game at around Tampa -7. Thereâs value on a desperate Steelers team that might be playing for its season. It feels like Chase Claypool is getting phased out of the offense as new QB Kenny Pickett builds rapport with George Pickens. Leonard Fournette hasnât topped 60 yards since Week 2 and has struggled to find room to run behind a Bucs offensive line thatâs still gelling.
San Francisco 49ers -5.5 at Atlanta Falcons, Total 44.5
- Falcons +5.5
- George Kittle over 43.5 yards
- Odds: +253
I expect the Falcons will keep things close against a banged-up 49ers team playing its second straight road game on the East coast. I think George Kittle could be in store for the breakout weâve been waiting for. Atlanta has given up at least 43 receiving yards to opposing tight ends in every game this season.
Minnesota Vikings -3.5 at Miami Dolphins, Total 46
- Dolphins +3.5
- Adam Thielen over 51.5 receiving yards
- Adam Thielen anytime TD
- Odds: +872
As I mentioned above, I think Miami can keep up with Minnesota even with Thompson at quarterback. The Vikingsâ defense ranks 28th in DVOA and could have trouble covering speedsters Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill. The Dolphins have also struggled against high-powered passing attacks, ranking 32nd in pass defense DVOA. However, Xavien Howard should be back to shadow Justin Jefferson, so Iâve turned my attention to the second option in the Minnesota passing game. Thielenâs topped this yardage total in three games, and I think a player as adept in the red zone should finally get in the end zone.
Baltimore Ravens -5.5 at New York Giants, Total 45.5
- Ravens -5.5
- Lamar Jackson over 208.5 passing yards
- Mark Andrews anytime TD
- Odds: +603
This feels like a great opportunity to buy the Ravens. The Giants opted not to take their bye after going to London last week, and we saw both the Saints and Vikings struggle after doing the same thing. Baltimoreâs offense should have its way with a Giants defense that ranks 25th in DVOA. Former Ravens defensive coordinator Don Martindale now calls the defense for New York, so thereâs some familiarity with his blitz-heavy scheme. I suspect Jackson will tear it up and get his top playmaker a score.
Jacksonville Jaguars at Indianapolis Colts -2, Total 42
- Colts -2
- Christian Kirk over 54.5 receiving yards
- Odds: +246
This is admittedly not a favorite game of mine. Maybe Iâm falling into this Indianapolis trap, but I expect them to take advantage of the long week and have a better gameplan the second time around against the Jaguars. Christian Kirk put up 78 yards in the first meeting, and his ability as a zone-beater should do well against a Gus Bradley zone defense.
New England Patriots at Cleveland Browns -2.5, Total 43.5
With injury uncertainty surrounding the Patriots, the prop menu simply isnât very extensive as of writing. However, itâs worth noting that New England ranks 28th in run defense DVOA, while Cleveland ranks 32nd. My ideal parlay would be the over on Nick Chubbâs rushing yards, the over on Rhamondre Stevensonâs rushing total, and the Browns -2.5. Of course, make sure Damien Harris is ruled out before making a play.
Cincinnati Bengals -2 at New Orleans Saints, Total 43.5
- Under 43.5
- JaâMarr Chase over 76.5 receiving yards
- Taysom Hill anytime TD
- Odds: +711
This game could be rather ugly. The Bengalsâ offense canât get anything going and will face a stout Saints defense that ranks 12th in DVOA. And New Orleansâ offense could once again be without Jameis Winston and Michael Thomas. The problem is New Orleans could be without Marshon Lattimore, potentially setting Chase up for a big day. Finally, Iâm just going to ride the Taysom Hill wave, especially if Andy Daltonâs under center again.
Buffalo Bills -2.5 at Kansas City Chiefs, Total 54
- Over 54
- Gabriel Davis over 51.5 receiving yards
- Travis Kelce anytime TD
- Odds: +546
I admittedly havenât made an official play on this game yet, as Iâm hoping the line will drop to closer to a pick âem before taking Buffalo. However, I think weâll see a ton of points, and I expect Gabriel Davis and Travis Kelce to play a big role in this game.
Carolina Panthers at Los Angeles Rams -10, Total 41.5
- Under 41.5
- Matthew Stafford to throw an INT
- Odds: +270
This game has rock fight written all over it. The Panthers are working in new quarterback PJ Walker, while the Ramsâ offense is in complete disarray. I think Los Angeles will bounce back, but I have seen nothing to justify laying 10 points with them. However, I feel fairly confident that the turnover-happy Matthew Stafford will make at least one bad throw.
Arizona Cardinals -2.5 at Seattle Seahawks, Total 50.5
- Seahawks +2.5
- D.K. Metcalf over 69.5 receiving yards
- Marquise Brown over 6.5 receptions
- Odds: +667
This game could be the highest-scoring contest of the weekend, as the Cardinals rank 27th in defensive DVOA, while Seattle ranks 31st. Both defenses are particularly weak against the pass, so Iâm betting on the top pass catchers having big days.
Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles -6.5, Total 42
- Under 42
- Cooper Rush under 219.5 passing yards
- Odds: +257
Iâve heard a ton of people who like Philadelphia this week, but I donât feel comfortable laying this heavy number in a primetime divisional showdown. Dallas has gone on this winning streak without asking too much of Cooper Rush. And while I think theyâre facing an uphill battle against the Eagles, I think Rush will struggle mightily against arguably the best defense heâs faced thus far. Iâm not expecting many points in general, as Dallasâ defensive speed should be able to limit this high-flying Eagles offense.
