NFL Week 6 consensus picks show unusual underdog popularity

The Week 6 consensus picks for the Edge Boost/Average Joe Contest have been finalized, with over 20,000 selections submitted by participants. The contest, which includes both NFL and college football, utilizes betting lines from Circa Sports.

A notable trend in this week’s NFL selections is the popularity of the Chargers +8 spread against the Chiefs, which captured a 74% consensus. This is considered unusual as it is rare for an underdog to be the most popular pick in the contest. Additionally, the 74% consensus is noted as being lower than typical top picks, indicating a wide variety of opinions among contestants this week.
