Green Bay Packers Over Baltimore Ravens

The Packers have been a much different team outside of Green Bay to start the season, but in Week 6, I like Aaron Rogers and the Pack to finally break through on the road.

Baltimore's pass defense has been suspect this season while Green Bay's aerial assault has been prolific thus far as expected. The Packers rank fourth in most passing yards per game this season and now have the balance they've coveted for so many years, boasting the league's fifth-ranked rushing attack.

Losing Clay Matthews for a few weeks definitely hurts Green Bay's defensive unit, but the Packers' strength against the run and the Ravens' inability to generate offense on the ground should allow Dom Capers to send his guys after Joe Flacco from the opening play. As Flacco has shown in recent games, he's prone to making costly mistakes. He has eight interceptions in five games this season.

Expect a close, defensive battle on Sunday in Baltimore, with the visiting Packers finding just enough offense to emerge with their first road victory of the year.

Detroit Lions Over Cleveland Browns

Detroit will visit the surging Cleveland Browns in Week 6. But for the first time since Week 2, Brandon Weeden will start under center for the Browns, which is leading many experts to give pause, including Bleacher Report's Josh Zerkle (see above video).

Cleveland is 0-2 in 2013 with Weeden as the starter and will be taking on a Lions team that can light up the scoreboard with its potent passing attack.

Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson will be a game-time decision on Sunday, according to Sporting News, but said that he was "feeling better" after returning to practice on Thursday, per ESPN.com's Michael Rothstein. If Johnson can suit up and play at 100 percent, Detroit's sixth-ranked passing game will be at an even greater advantage. 

Running back Reggie Bush is also a huge difference-maker for Detroit, averaging 4.9 yards per carry and 13.6 yards per reception this season. The more touches he gets, the more problems Cleveland will have.

Pittsburgh Steelers Over New York Jets

The Pittsburgh Steelers may be winless coming into Week 6, but they've been in nearly every game this season and will have a great shot to earn their first takeaway of 2013 against turnover-prone rookie Geno Smith and the New York Jets.

The Jets' 12 giveaways through five games are the most of any team in the AFC.

Pittsburgh will need to generate more offense on the ground in this game, but the Steelers have had a bye week to make adjustments and have to be encouraged by rookie running back Le'Veon Bell, who rushed for two touchdowns against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4.

The Steelers also have a dangerous passing attack to fall back on. Pittsburgh ranks ninth in the league in passing yards per game and should test New York's secondary this weekend, especially if veteran cornerback Antonio Cromartie can't play, per NFL on ESPN via Twitter:

Either way, the Steelers appear to be the best of the remaining winless teams and will have their best chance to get a win this weekend against a rookie quarterback.
