{"id":854,"section":"sports","section_label":"Sports","url":"https://www.brokenews.co/sports/854","headline":"No games decided yet, just a pile of Week 6 predictions","dek":"Outlets are out with picks and projected scores for the upcoming Week 6 NFL slate, including Rams vs. Cardinals.","body":"Week 6 of the NFL season hasn't kicked off yet, but that hasn't stopped the forecasting machine from cranking out picks for every matchup on the slate. Analysts have published against-the-spread calls, exact score guesses, and individual game breakdowns covering the full Sunday schedule.\n\nAmong the specific matchups drawing attention is Rams vs. Cardinals, which has its own dedicated preview covering odds and viewing information. The rest of the slate gets similar treatment across multiple sets of predictions, with different experts offering their own stats to watch and projected outcomes for every contest.\n\nNone of this tells us anything about what will actually happen once teams take the field. Picks are picks, and spreads are spreads, and professional forecasters miss all the time. What matters is that Week 6 is close enough to generate a full round of previews, with games still to be played and no results on the board yet.\n\nCheck back once the games are actually played to see how the predictions held up against reality.","published_at":"2026-10-19T17:36:57.763629+00:00","source_count":4,"written_from":[{"outlet":"The Athletic","publisher":"The Athletic","title":"NFL picks
