As we look ahead at Week 6, there are some games you will want to watch from kickoff to the final whistle.

We’ll also look at an emerging team that has everyone surprised. Here is this week’s early odds parlay.

Leg No. 1: Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills over 54 (-110)
This AFC Divisional Round rematch could be a future playoff matchup with how well these teams are playing.
Josh Allen looks like an MVP candidate as he leads the league in passing yards (1,651) and is second in points per game.
Right next to Allen in the MVP race is Patrick Mahomes, as his stellar performance on Monday night has him leading the league with 15 touchdowns and a 110.5 passer rating. His Kanas City is also the offense that leads the league in points (31.8).
The recent history between these teams has brought exciting and high-scoring games. This includes last season’s playoffs with a 28-point fourth quarter and a game-winning overtime touchdown by Kansas City. Their last three matchups have gone over 57 total points, and with how well each offense is playing, we’re looking forward to another shootout.
Leg No. 2: Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles Under 42.5 (-110)
On the NFC side, this will be the game you’ll want to keep your eye on. It’s no secret that the Eagles and Cowboys do not like each other, and this will be one of those dogfight types of games. The over has hit in the last three matchups, but this will be the first time both teams are within the top 10 in scoring defense in that span.
The Cowboys could see Dan Prescott back behind center as he recovers from the thumb injury that had him out of the last four games. He says he can now grip the football and the game’s adrenaline with help. But how much will he be able to do?
We’ve seen Jalen Hurts emerge as a superstar, and the Dallas defense hasn’t seen a quarterback this season that can pass and run well. Still, they’ve also seen some of the best talents in the league, including three quarterbacks recently playing in Super Bowls (Tom Brady, Matthew Stafford and Joe Burrow).
Leg No. 3: New York Giants +5.5 (-110)
Tell me, have you heard this before? The Giants have a ton of injuries at receiver, and the offensive line is still a little shaky. This is the trend with this team over the last few years; usually, they would be at 1-4. The difference maker has been Brian Daboll, who is getting the chirps of coach of the year as they’re 4-1.
They come in as a home dog to Baltimore, who is not playing like a complete team this season. The passing defense is last, and they’ll be without star DB Marcus Williams this week. Daniel Jones hasn’t been much of a passing threat, but he might be able to exploit this lousy secondary.
The Ravens’ rushing defense has been much better, as they’re tied for the 12th most rushing yards allowed. They’ll see Saquon Barkley in the backfield, who is second in rushing yards and ran for 164 yards against Tennessee’s top-10 run defense.
Last week the Baltimore offense looked out of sync for the first time all season, and the Giants’ secondary has done well with one-on-one coverage, which means they’ll focus on shutting Lamar down on the ground
With how tough the Giants have played each opponent, they can keep this game close or even get the win.
Total Odds: +595
