Week 6 NFL Betting Odds from Bodog

Week 5 of the 2008 NFL season has come and gone, and there were the usual upsets, shocks and downright thuggery. The Lions and Bengals continued their losing ways, and one has to wonder who will be the next coach to get canned this season? Lane Kiffin and Scott Linehan are out, by the way (if you haven’t already seen Al Davis’ bizarre press conference, be sure to look for it on the Internet).

LAST WEEK’S RESULTS

I finished a meager 5-5 on my picks last week. That brings my overall season record to 26-28-1. I’m way behind where I was last season, so I’m gonna have to really start taking a closer look at these contests. The toughest thing, to me, is forgetting all about what a team did last season and trying only to focus on the current year. I keep thinking, “This team was great last year,” so I keep expect a losing franchise to turn things around.

Picking winners on a consistent basis is certainly harder than one might think.

NFL KEY INJURIES - WEEK 6

Here are some of the key injuries in the NFL for the sixth week of the season:

QB - Matt Hasselbeck (Seahawks) - Hyperextended knee. Didn’t practice all week, but he will play this Sunday.

QB - Brian Griese (Buccaneers) - A shoulder injury knocked him out of the game, and expect Jeff Garcia to make a run at getting his job back.

QB - Jon Kitna (Lions) - Back spasms. He’s pretty much lost the starting job.

RB - Ladainian Tomlinson (Chargers) - Injured toe. Looks like this nagging injury may hamper LT throughout the season.

RB - Brian Westbrook (Eagles) - Sprained ankle and 2 fractured ribs. With the Eagles getting a bye in week 7, expect Westbrook to sit.

WR - Eddie Royal (Broncos) - Suffered a lower leg injury and is out for this week’s game.

WR - Chris Chambers (Chargers) - Lower leg injury. Looks to miss this week.

TE - Tony Scheffler (Broncos) - Strained left groin. Out for this week.

WEEK SIX BYES

By the way, don’t forget that the following teams have the week off:

Tennessee Titans

Kansas City Chiefs

Pittsburgh Steelers

Buffalo Bills
