Hey, that rhymes! The staff at Grubb Hub, fresh and rested from their six-year sabbatical, have decided to start picking NFL games for…Week 6. Six years? Week 6? Creepy coincidence if you ask me. Cue the Twilight Zone music. Now for less horrible anecdotes and more game pickin’.
We’ll start with the Thursday Night Football, not to be confused with Sunday Night Football, Monday Night Football, and at some point, Saturday. The Philadelphia Eagles are taking the last train to New York to take on the Giants.
Don’t worry, we’ll add the rest of the Week 6 picks later when we have more time. Possibly even before Sunday! Because that would be cheating. By the way, the lines shown here are from our iPhone’s ESPN app at the time we posted. If you’ve got a different line, good for you. Let’s get started, shall we?
