This Weeks Top 5 Expected NFL Blowouts


With week six fast approaching, we take a look at the top 5 NFL blowout games we are likely to see on Sunday. If you’re getting ready to make your NFL picks this weekend, I would suggest you consider looking at one of these five games for an easy win. Just remember, if you lose, don’t hold me to it!

Cleveland Browns vs Pittsburgh Steelers


With Ben Roethlisberger back on the team and Cleveland quarterback Colt McCoy making his first NFL start, this is likely to be a lopsided battle. The spread is at 14 points and I would be surprised if the Steelers aren’t able to easily cover that. We’ll have to wait and see if Big Ben comes out of the gates a bit rusty or not, but there no doubt in my mind the Steelers D will be tormenting Cleveland’s young QB all day long. Steelers should have a big win here on Sunday.

San Diego Chargers vs St. Louis Rams



With a struggling Chargers team at 2-3 going on the road to meet the Rams, they will be digging deep for a big win. There is no doubt an angry Philip Rivers will be looking to put up some serious point on a Rams team who was beaten badly last weekend. Although there record doesn’t show it, the Chargers are number one in total offense and number two in total defense. I have a  feeling you will see those stats come alive as the Chargers put up some big numbers against the Rams this weekend.

Detroit Lions vs New York Giants


Even know the Giants started off the season struggling, that seems to be nothing but a distant memory. And although the Lions put up 44 points last weekend against the Rams, you can be sure that is not going to happen again this week. The giants, currently with the number one defense against the pass, should have no problem shutting down the Lion’s passing game. On top of that, the Lions less than average defense will be no match for the rounded offensive attack of the Giants. The Giants should be able to easily cover the 10 point spread and then some.

Seattle Seahawks vs Chicago Bears


With the Bears record at 3-1 and playing at home against a sub-par Seattle team, we should definitely see a blowout here. Jake Cutler is back in the lineup after a Week 5 concussion and the Seahawk’s defense can’t seem to stop anything. On top of that, you have a Bears defense that is playing some outstanding football at the moment and a Seattle offense that is ranked 28th in the league. Bears should win by at least two scores.

Indianapolis Colts vs Washington Redskins


In a somewhat surprising match up to make the list, we’re calling for a big blowout from the Colts over the Skins. We have the Redskins sitting at the very bottom of the barrel when it comes to pass defense and a Colts QB who had a not so impressive performance for much of the game last week. It’s safe to say we should expect a big rebound from Peyton Manning this week. While the spread is only 3 points, you can expect a blowout in this one.
Be sure to leave us a comment and let us know which one of these teams you think will win by the biggest margin.
