NFL Predictions: Week 6's Winners and Losers

The Jacksonville Jaguars are ... back?
The Jaguars are once again riding high times after a 25-20 win over the Buffalo Bills in Week 5. Now, the Jaguars will have to recover from a 10-day trip to London to gear up for a Week 6 AFC South tilt vs. the Colts.
"I think the guys understand. Going away for ten days was good for us, but we’ve got to bring that energy back," Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said this week. "We can’t leave it in London. That’s a big part of this week but playing a divisional opponent can help that.”
To keep track of how we see the NFL this year, we will be doing weekly win-loss predictions, tracking our progress as the year goes on.
Last week: 6-9
Season: 49-29 (62.8%)
Jaguars vs. Colts
Winner: Jaguars
Gardner Minshew will absolutely have a chip on his shoulder this game, I am just not sure how much it matters. The Jaguars know this Colts defense well and the offense is playing better now than they were in Week 1.
Chiefs vs. Broncos
Winner: Chiefs
This feels like the week we may get a Sean Payton/Russell Wilson spat on the sidelines.
Titans vs. Ravens
Winner: Ravens
The Ravens can't beat themselves in a game they otherwise dominate for the second week in a row ... right?
Panthers vs. Dolphins
Winner: Dolphins
I am getting some Zach Wilson vibes from Bryce Young's rookie season, and it has become clear Frank Reich was forced into the pick. A lot of bad energy from the Panthers right now.
Vikings vs. Bears
Winner: Bears
I think the Bears roll over the Vikings. Their offense is rolling (?) and the Vikings' defense is not.
Saints vs. Texans
Winner: Saints
CJ Stroud has had a great season, but I am not sure he can stay upright vs. this Saints defensive front.
49ers. vs. Browns
Winner: 49ers
The 49ers vs. P.J. Walker. Ah man.
Seahawks vs. Bengals
Winner: Seahawks
The Seahawks have the quarterback advantage, and I am only kind of kidding.
Commanders vs. Falcons
Winner: Falcons
The Falcons offense got right vs. the Texans and now will face a weaker defense in the struggling Commanders.
Patriots vs. Raiders
Winner: Raiders
The Patriots haven't even scored 60 points on offense this season. The Mac Jones era is over, they just haven't made it official.
Cardinals vs. Rams
Winner: Rams
This game should be close, but Matthew Stafford is playing at a legitimately great level.
Lions vs. Buccaneers
Winner: Lions
The Lions have been a top-5 team this year and I don't think that changes this weekend vs. an overachieving Bucs team.
Eagles vs. Jets
Winner: Eagles
The Eagles defensive front vs. this banged-up Jets line will be nasty stuff.
Giants vs. Bills
Winner: Bills
The Giants have been the 31st-best team in the NFL this season, to me. They are lucky the Panthers exist.
Cowboys vs. Chargers
Winner: Chargers
The Cowboys' offense feels neutered at the moment, while Justin Herbert is playing the best football of his career.
