Week 6 of the NFL season sees the first bye weeks coming into play, as the Lions, Texans, Raiders, and Titans will all sit this Sunday out.
Though there will be two fewer games on the wagering slate, there are still several strong sides to consider. Here are our NFL parlay picks for Week 6.
Gonzalo Higuain continued his goalscoring form to inspire Argentina to a 1-0 win over Honduras, but the Copa America Centenario warm-up fixture was overshadowed by an injury to captain Lionel Messi.
After breaking a 66-year-old Serie A record with 36 league goals for Napoli in 2015-16, in-form striker Higuain was at it again in the first half as Argentina completed their preparations for next week s Copa America in the United States with a sixth consecutive match without defeat.
Higuain made it seven goals in four games for club and country with a sublime chip just past the half-hour mark in San Juan on Friday.
However, Argentina were left sweating on the fitness of Messi ahead of their opening Copa America fixture against defending champions Chile on June 6 aft…
Liverpool s top scorer Mohamed Salah will have a knock assessed after his match-winning heroics in the 2-1 victory over Leicester City came at a cost.
Salah led Liverpool s charge to get back into the game after Jamie Vardy s third-minute opener at Anfield – fruitlessly at first, before collecting Sadio Mane s clever backheel to equalise seven minutes into the second half.
The winner arrived 14 minutes from time, with James Milner providing the clever flick for Salah to shake off the attentions of Leicester centre-back Harry Maguire and fire home his 23rd goal of the season in all competitions.
Liverpool travel to Burnley on New Year s Day and manager Jurgen Klopp was not entirely optimistic over his prospects of featuring at Turf Moor.

But now their attentions turn back to the Premier League, and they head into the clash at Vitality Stadium in eighth, on the back of just one defeat in their last seven league outings.
We ll try and win every game, Milner told the Liverpool Echo. It is important to try and finish strongly in the league.
The performance was good at the weekend against …
Leroy Sane says that he rejected the chance to join Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool before signing for Manchester City.
The pacey winger has been in spectacular form for City this season, scoring six goals and supplying nine assists for the runaway Premier League leaders.
City bought the Germany international from Schalke in a reported £37million deal in August 2016, after attracting several suitors following his impressive performances in the Bundesliga.
Compatriot Klopp was among those keen to bring in Sane, but the Reds boss was unable to convince him to choose Merseyside over Manchester.
Yes, I was also talking with them, Sane told The Guardian. Jurgen was calling me too, talking to me. That was before I joined City.
He did a good job at [Borussi…

Dirk Kuyt has joined Turkish powerhouses Fenerbahce from Liverpool on a three-year deal.
The versatile attacker has signed with the Istanbul club on a transfer for an undisclosed fee.
The Netherlands international had long been linked with a move away from Anfield, and has now opted to continue his career at Fenerbahce after previously turning down Feyenoord.
Fenerbahce are a great club to continue my career. They only just missed out on the league title this season. They did qualify for the Champions League qualifiers, though, Kuyt told the official Sport-Promotion website.
I needed a new challenge after six years with Liverpool. This has nothing to do with the club and the fans. They will forever have a place in my heart.
The 31-year-old Kuy…

The Brazil international joined Barca from Santos in June 2013 in a move that has been the subject of much controversy in Spain.
Barca have recently hit back at calls for the club to stand trial over alleged tax fraud surrounding the transfer, however, on the pitch the move is paying dividends.
After scoring 15 times last season, Neymar has netted 22 goals in 26 appearances this term, with Argentina superstar Messi on target on 32 occasions.
