NFL Week 6 bold predictions: Zach Wilson outduels Aaron Rodgers; Eagles’ D steals shine from DAL unit

Throughout the 2022 NFL season, NFL Network analysts will provide one bold prediction heading into each week’s slate of games

David Carr

The Jets have come alive, winning three of their last four games. Second-year quarterback Zach Wilson has tallied two touchdowns — one passing, one running — in his two starts (both wins) this season. On Sunday at Lambeau Field, Wilson quadruples his passing-touchdown total with FOUR scoring strikes to four different players, outdueling Aaron Rodgers in the process.  

Marc Ross

The Eagles’ defense steals the shine from Dan Quinn’s vaunted Dallas unit and ends Cooper Rush’s undefeated fairy tale. Under the lights on Sunday night, Philly holds the Cowboys to 10 points and fewer than 250 total yards in a blowout win.

DeAngelo Hall

The Dolphins can’t slow down the league’s top wide receiver, Justin Jefferson, as Minnesota dismantles Miami behind Kirk Cousins’ best performance of the season. The veteran QB eclipses 300 passing yards for the first time in 2022, going for 350 and three TDs — two to Jefferson.

Maurice Jones-Drew

We’ve yet to find out who New England will start at quarterback in Cleveland on Sunday, but no matter who’s under center — Mac Jones or rookie Bailey Zappe — the Patriots will find some late-game magic. New England wins its second straight game after stringing together a go-ahead touchdown drive late in the fourth quarter.
