CRAZY NFL PARLAY: WEEK 6

BY ADAM GREENE

It’s our favorite time of the NFL week, where we wrap our final Sunday and Monday preparations by crafting the Crazy NFL Parlay.

If this is your first foray into the Crazy NFL Parlay, here’s how it works. I look over the full slate of games and try to pick a collection of upsets that turns the price of Star Burger Combo from Hardee’s into a brand new Sea-Doo watercraft.

These games aren’t picked by happenstance. Oh no. I’m really trying to hit it here, not just for me, but for you. For America. For human civilization. We deserve good things, you and I, and a big pile of money is that good thing which we all deserve.

Here’s what I’ve hand selected for you this week;

Tennessee Titans +185

Chicago Bears +135

Seattle Seahawks +135

Houston Texans +106

New England Patriots +130

Tampa Bay Buccaneers +140

New York Jets +245

Los Angeles Chargers +118

If you’ve read my Friday Afternoon Quarterback, Sunday Night Football and Monday Night Football previews, then you already know I like some of these “upsets.” I feel as if the Bears offense is rolling and Justin Fields has put it together enough to capitalize in a shootout with one of the worst defenses in football that just so happens to belong to the Minnesota Vikings. The Texans have been a nice surprise early in the season and CJ Stroud is on pace to become the best rookie QB in league history. They’re playing a banged up New Orleans Saints team in Houston. Lastly, in a battle of two of the worst head coaches in the league, I feel that Brandon Staley and his Chargers can outwit Mike McCarthy and his Dallas Cowboys.

It’s the other contests we have to talk ourselves into, so let’s get cracking.

The Baltimore Ravens laid a serious egg last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now they have to travel all the way to London to face a Titans team with a pretty stout defense of their own.

While I don’t believe in the Seahawks, punditry loves them and the Cincinnati Bengals might not be back to full strength just yet.

We all want the Patriots to lose every game because we’re Americans, but they’re not going to. They’ve been thoroughly skunked two weeks in a row and to think that Josh McDaniels and the Las Vegas Raiders can make it three is probably too much to ask from a guy competing with Staley and McCarthy for that Worst Coach in the NFL trophy.

The Detroit Lions have reached that smug, “we’re going to win every game” moment where teams not used to success take a stumble. They’re playing at a solid Bucs team loaded with offensive talent.

Lastly, and this is the one that put us over the five digit payout mark, conceive of a world where the Jets and Robert Saleh concoct the perfect defensive gameplan to slow down the Philadelphia Eagles and Zach Wilson just doesn’t screw it up. Philly suffered that exact same kind of loss last season against the Washington Commanders.

A $10 winning parlay bet on these eight moneylines pays $13,450.54
