Chris Fallica, a FOX Sports wagering expert, walks readers through predicting this week’s NFL Super 6 contest, offering his thoughts and insights on the players and teams involved. Fallica identified Geno Smith as the quarterback most likely to have the most passing yards, punting down the most common pick Brock Purdy, due to McCaffrey’s full return. In terms of the totals, he predicted the 49ers to be the highest scoring team, followed by Broncos, Falcons, and lastly, Seahawks despite the brilliant performances of Geno Smith.
Fallica’s analysis of wide receivers leads him to pick Tyreek Hill as the one likely to get the most receiving yards, despite Hill’s recent drought. This season, he has recorded only a single 100 yard game and this came in Week 1. However, Tagovailoa’s return to the Miami team and the team’s urgency to secure and guards its playoff hopes could provide the perfect platform for Hill’s resurgence.
Among running backs, Fallica’s bets are on Josh Jacobs to gather the most total yards, considering that Jacobs’ opponents, the Bears, are easy to rush and he has been impressive with 222 rushing and 11 receiving yards in the past two weeks. C-Mac, otherwise an excellent choice, is still considered to be on the recovery path.
Focusing on quarterbacks, Josh Allen tops Fallica’s list of players most likely to make the most rushing yards. If Buffalo is to break the undefeated run of the Chiefs, Allen will need to be at his best. Further, Drake Maye’s impressive 233 rushing yards in six appearances also earn him a mention. Mahomes and Jackson are also expected to perform well, despite a tough defense from the Steelers.
In predicting game outcomes, Fallica suggests Bears could secure a win, a tie, or a loss with a margin less than or equal to 6 points against the Packers. Firing of the Bears’ offensive coordinator Shane Waldron might provide the necessary boost to the team. Fallica’s final score prediction for the game is Packers 24, Bears 20.
