Week 5 Picks

Colts vs Patriots: Patriots 31-27
Vegas has the Pats winning this game by 10, which I disagree with. The Patriots defense has had one good game, and the Colts have played all of their games close. The Patriots will win this game at home, but not by 10.
Giants vs Panthers: Panthers 24-13
The Panthers have looked like one of the best teams in the NFC this season, and the Giants have a bad quarterback. The Panthers will win thus game against a struggling Giants team.
Jaguars vs Chiefs: Jaguars 24-21 *UPSET ALERT*
This is the game where Mahomes throws some picks and Kansas City learns that defense wins championships. The Jaguars will slow down the Kansas City offense, and Blake Bortles will torch this horrible Chiefs defense.
Titans vs Bills: Titans 24-9
The Bills are going to lose all their games this year, except for the game in Minnesota because that’s our luck.
Dolphins vs Bengals: Bengals 35-27
The Bengals get Vontaze Burfict back this week, and they will need him to make this defense better. The offense in his absence? They’ve looked like one of the best. The Dolphins aren’t going to look so good when they have to play good teams.
Falcons vs Steelers: Falcons 45-38
This should be a high-powered shoot-out. Both teams have no defense. Both teams have elite wide receivers. I’m giving the edge to Atlanta because of the run game and the fact that Big Ben has looked terrible.
Ravens vs Browns: Ravens 24-18
The Ravens look like one of the top teams in the AFC, but they still have to play Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, plus this game in Cleveland. The Ravens will have to prove they belong on top, and they start doing that with a win in Cleveland.
Broncos vs Jets: Broncos 28-13
The Jets are rebuilding, and their young quarterback will make mistakes against a good Denver defense.
Packers vs Lions: Packers 34-21
This game shouldn’t be close, and Rodgers won’t let it be close. I bet Rodgers still complains after the game though.
Raiders vs Chargers: Raiders 38-31
The Raiders are in desperation mode and the Chargers have been hyped up all offseason. The Raiders will come into L.A., and still have a home game due to the lack of fans for the Chargers. The Raiders win this game close in a mobile home version of the Black Hole.
Cardinals vs 49ers: 49ers 24-17
This game is a dumpster fire. The Cardinals look terrible and the 49ers lost Jimmy Garoppolo. The 49ers will win still, but barely.
Rams vs Seahawks: Rams 42-24
Not much to say here. The Rams are the best team in football.
Vikings vs Eagles: Vikings 31-17
Statement. Win. The Vikings defense shows up against Wentz and the Eagles, the Vikings offense continues showing why Cousins got his deal.
Cowboys vs Texans: Cowboys 27-24
This game is a tossup. I’m taking the Cowboys because Zeke has looked very good, and Dak has made some plays.
Redskins vs Saints: Saints 32-21
Drew Brees is very good, the Saints will get back Ingram, and the defense will do enough. The Redskins might make it interesting though with Smith and Peterson playing great ball.
