The Games Everyone Can Watch

New England Patriots vs. Indianapolis Colts

After crushing a depleted Dallas Cowboys squad 30-6 in Week 5, Tom Brady and the New England Patriots hit the road to face an Indianapolis Colts team dealing with its own health issues at key positions. 

The Colts are winners of three straight, albeit against teams with a combined 3-11 record. Two of those wins have come with 40-year-old Matt Hasselbeck at quarterback in place of an injured Andrew Luck. New England is far and away the best team this mediocre outfit has faced this season.

The Stanford alum could be back on Sunday, as he practiced in full on Friday and is listed as questionable on the injury report, per Colts.com. Even though Luck can do much more with the football than the aging Hasselbeck at this point, the Patriots aren't likely to blink if he plays on Sunday night. In four career games against New England—two regular-season, two playoffs—Luck is 0-4 with six touchdown passes and 10 interceptions.

The Pats defense ranks 12th in yards allowed and seventh in points given up and features one of the league's rising stars in linebacker Jamie Collins. The 25-year-old Mississippian makes impact plays on a regular basis, with 3.5 sacks and three forced fumbles already this year.

Here's how one NFC assistant coach described him, via ESPN Insider Field Yates: 

"

[Collins] is the best blitzing linebacker in the NFL and it's not close. He could play the Jack linebacker role in a 3-4 like DeMarcus Ware, and he could be the right end in a 4-3 like Robert Quinn. He's talented enough. And he can also be the stack linebacker in a 4-3 like Lavonte David. He can cover; he can run; he's instinctive. He's in the perfect system, where linebackers do everything -- and he can do everything.

"

Indy will have a chance if the old-man contingent spearheaded by Andre Johnson and Frank Gore can help out Luck like they did Hasselbeck in Week 5. Johnson reeled in six passes for 77 yards and two touchdowns, while Gore racked up a season-high 98 rushing yards and one touchdown.

Even so, it's going to be tough to keep up with Brady and company. Brady has thrown 11 TD without a pick this year. If pitch and catch with either Rob Gronkowski or Julian Edelman isn't an option, Brady can count on running backs LeGarrette Blount and Dion Lewis to shoulder some of the load.

Grantland's Bill Barnwell noted Lewis is like a "supercharged version" of Shane Vereen (now with the New York Giants) this year:

"

Lewis spent most of 2014 out of football, having been cut by the Browns and Colts, the teams that each invested a first-round pick in Trent Richardson. Lewis beat out Travaris Cadet and James White in the competition to replace Shane Vereen and has basically turned into the supercharged version of the departed receiving back. Lewis is on pace to run for 720 yards and catch 92 passes for 952 yards, which would dwarf Vereen’s 2014 totals (391 rushing yards, 52 catches, 447 receiving yards).

"

The Colts defense rates as the 23rd most efficient in football, according to Football Outsiders' Defense-adjusted Value Over Average metric (DVOA). Linebackers Jerrell Freeman and Nate Irving are both listed as questionable, and outside linebacker Trent Cole (zero sacks on the season) has had a slow start this year.

This doesn't bode well for a unit facing a battering ram like Blount, a scatback like Lewis and the marauding Gronk. New England should win this game handily.

New York Giants vs. Philadelphia Eagles

Will head coach Chip Kelly do the smart, simple thing and keep feeding DeMarco Murray the ball against New York? Nervous Philly fans, who have already seen some incredible highs and lows this year, can only hope. 

Philadelphia put together its most cohesive offensive performance of the season in a Week 5 dismantling of New Orleans, and Murray was naturally a key cog in that outburst. After rushing for just 47 yards in his first three games, Murray carried the ball 20 times for 83 yards and a score against the Saints, while adding another 37 yards through the air. 

The stats say Murray might've been a beneficiary of improved blocking, per ESPN's Kevin Negandhi: 

As good as Murray was, he wasn't the most efficient back for Philly on the day. His ostensible understudy Ryan Mathews racked up 73 yards and one touchdown on just eight attempts, so a timeshare in the backfield could be in place. Murray, who has stated earlier in the season he wasn't getting enough touches, is understanding if Mathews sees an increased role.

“Hey, whatever they decide,” Murray said, via CSNPhilly.com's Dave Zangaro. “I can only control what I can control. I can’t control the plays being called or who’s in on different situations.”

Whoever leads the Eagles' backfield will have to earn those yards against a tough New York run defense allowing just 80.6 yards per game. Sam Bradford has looked sharper in the past two weeks but still threw a couple of picks against the Saints. Like Murray, he appears lost and out of sorts at times in Kelly's unique attack.

For New York, the concerns are about health, not cohesiveness. Star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is listed as questionable for Monday night, per NJ.com's James Kratch. His hamstring injury prevented him from finishing New York's thrilling Week 5 win over San Francisco. Wide receiver Rueben Randle, who was also sidelined with a bum hamstring against the 49ers, has a more optimistic outlook.

“My thoughts: Yeah,” Randle said, via Ebenezer Samuel of the New York Daily News. “I don’t see myself sitting out this game.”

Eli Manning has been spectacular this season, with 10 touchdowns and just two interceptions thus far. He's talented enough to overcome a missing Beckham, but New York's offense won't be nearly as explosive without him commanding attention across his half of the field. Week 6 would be a fine time for one of Rashad Jennings, Andre Williams or Vereen to establish themselves as a threat out of the New York backfield. 

Philadelphia will be loathe to drop this game against division-leading New York. The Dallas Cowboys are likely to struggle so long as Tony Romo and Dez Bryant are nursing their injuries, and the Washington Redskins look too inconsistent on offense to make a serious run.

The Eagles are just a game back of New York and can really put their early-season frustrations behind them with a big win on Monday night.
