The Chiefs play Washington on Sunday, but we’re picking all of this weekend’s games.

Week 6 of the NFL season kicks off with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-1) on the road against the Philadelphia Eagles (2-3) on Thursday Night Football.

On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs will face the Washington Football Team in our nation’s capital. Kickoff is scheduled for Noon Arrowhead Time.

Before that, Sunday’s action will begin at 8:30 a.m. Arrowhead Time with another matchup from London: the Miami Dolphins (1-4) against the Jacksonville Jaguars (0-5).

Elsewhere in the AFC West, there are two big games: the Baltimore Ravens (4-1) hosting the Los Angeles Chargers (4-1) during Sunday’s early afternoon games, while the Las Vegas Raiders (3-2) will be in Colorado to take on the Denver Broncos (3-2) during the late games.

Another big matchup in the early games will be the Green Bay Packers (4-1) against the Chicago Bears (3-2) in the Windy City. In the late games, the Arizona Cardinals (5-0) will be in Ohio to take on the Cleveland Browns (3-2) and the New England Patriots (2-3) will host the Dallas Cowboys (4-1).

The Week 6 edition of Sunday Night Football will feature the Seattle Seahawks (2-3) and Pittsburgh Steelers (2-3) from Heinz Field. Then on Monday Night Football, the Buffalo Bills (4-1) will be in Nashville to face the Tennessee Titans (3-2).
