Here is a look at some of the best games of Week Six and our betting picks:

Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns

Some of you are probably thinking "why is this a good game?" For one thing, these teams are not as bad as their record. Both have played a brutal schedule and both have hung with some of the league's best teams. Plus, it's a rivalry game. Who can forget former Bengals coach Sam Wyche taking the P.A. mic and scolding fans who were throwing things on the field during a home game that "you don't live in Cleveland, you live in CINCINNATI!" Classic rivalry stuff. Bodog has the Browns + 130.

The Bengals are -3 +110. Over/under on the game is 44. We like the Browns in this one. They have been getting close. They are due to win one.

Indianapolis Colts at New York Jets

Who will start at quarterback for the Jets this week? That would be Mark Sanchez. Will he finish the game at quarterback? That would be anybody's guess. If the Jets keep losing, they may have to make a move soon to Tim Tebow. The Colts are watching Andrew Luck grow up in a hurry. Luck's development potential is what started the chain reaction moving Peyton Manning to Denver and Tebow to the Jets. We may see them go head to head before this game is over.

The Colts are +3+105. The Jets are -3 -125. Over/under is 43.5. We like the Colts +3.5. Luck is looking better every week.

Green Bay Packers at Houston Texans

The Packers have struggled a bit this season. But they are still very dangerous. Aaron Rodgers is among the league's best quarterbacks. They are still only two years removed from a Super Bowl and one year removed from a 15-1 record. They've lost some tough ones this year, including last week, blowing a big lead to the Colts. The Texans are one of two unbeaten teams, but have not exactly been playing the NFL's elite. They will get their chance this week. They lost a key player a week ago when Brian Cushing went down with a torn ACL.

The Packers are +3 +110. The Texans are -3 -130. Over/under on the game is 48. We are going to pick the Packers +3 to upset the Texans.
Other games to check out include:

Dallas Cowboys at Baltimore Ravens

On Pinnacle, Dallas is +3.5. The Ravens have one of the league's toughest defenses. The Cowboys offense has been bad. We like Baltimore -3.5.

Buffalo Bills at Arizona Cardinals

Will the Cardinals be able to bounce back from their first loss of the season? We think so. Take the Cardinals -4.5.

New England Patriots at Seattle Seahawks

Seattle is +3.5. They've been hanging tough all season against some good teams. Seattle is a very tough road game. We like the Seahawks +3.5.
