Not so many great key games, but here are the top 3 games of week #6 that the writers of Sports Junkies think are important!!!
#1 - New England @ Denver - Two of the top AFC teams square off in Denver Sunday - the never-count-us-out Patriots are looking to continue just an unbelievable run of winning games despite injuries, free agency and other departures of the staff and players against a Broncos team that may not be mathematically one of the top teams, but is sitting on a 4-1 record atop the AFC West.
#2 – St Louis @ Indianapolis – Indianapolis is the only unbeaten team in the NFL remaining and is hoping to continue this trend against the #2 ranked offense in the NFL. Even though the Rams don’t have a winning record, don’t be fooled by this offensive powerhouse – this will be the Colts first and true test of how good their defense has improved.
#3 – Jacksonville @ Pittsburgh – The Jaguars are looking to keep pace in the AFC South and hopes of the playoffs loom every week – as inconsistent as the Jags are, they have proven they can play with the best, which Pittsburgh has to be ranked near the top in the AFC, after an impressive come-from-behind victory over a hot San Diego team. The main concern for the Steelers is Ben Roethlisbergers health after that knee injury late in the game on Monday.
