As we head into another exciting week of football in the NFL, teams are ready to show what they’re made of. After a tough start in September, where many fans and experts struggled with their game picks, it’s a chance for everyone to redeem themselves. Last week, the predictions took another hit with a 7-9 record against the spread and an even 8-8 straight-up record. However, the silver lining is that there’s hope on the horizon!
The action kicks off on Thursday night at 8:15 p.m. ET when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers face off against the Atlanta Falcons. After a strong performance against the Eagles, the Buccaneers look to keep their momentum going. Although the Falcons came out victorious last week, their offense has been struggling, which may lead to another win for the Bucs. A predicted score of 24-20 in favor of Tampa Bay might just be in the cards.
On Sunday morning at 9:30 a.m. ET, we’ll see the undefeated Minnesota Vikings take on the New York Jets. The Jets have had a hard time offensively, and with their battle against a strong Vikings defense, it’s expected to be a nail-biter. A close game is anticipated, with the Jets barely edging out a win at 19-16.
Another interesting matchup features the Chicago Bears squaring off against the Carolina Panthers at 1 p.m. ET. The Bears are riding a wave of confidence after their recent win, while the Panthers are struggling to get their footing. A score of 24-13 is expected in favor of Chicago.
The Cincinnati Bengals will also make a splash in their game against the Baltimore Ravens. Sitting at a critical junction in the division race, the Bengals look to dominate the scoreboard with a likely outcome of 34-31.
As the day rolls on, several teams including the Green Bay Packers and the San Francisco 49ers are set to showcase their talent. The Packers are predicted to defeat the Los Angeles Rams at 31-19, while the 49ers are favored to overrun the Arizona Cardinals with a convincing 30-17 victory.
Sunday night wraps up with the Dallas Cowboys facing off the Pittsburgh Steelers in a matchup that is expected to be tight, with the Cowboys edging out a 23-20 win.
Lastly, on Monday night, the New Orleans Saints will face the Kansas City Chiefs, where the Chiefs are expected to overpower with a score of 31-20.
As we dive deep into Week 5, fans and teams alike are looking for a turnaround. Will this be the week that the tides change? Only time will tell!
