The panel came out with their picks in Week 5, and it was a DOOZY of a schedule around the NFL. It was a week where we all had to hem and haw most of the picks on the slate, as there were so many unknowns in Week 5 — and some serious desperation games.
Thursday Night Football should be easy, with everyone picking the Cowboys to win easily. Of course, last week we all picked the Lions to win on Sunday night until Carolina crashed that party. The big divisional game this week around the league is Seahawks vs. 49ers, and we split this one 5/4. Both teams are fantastic, each looks like they are the class of the NFC West, and this is going to be a barn burner.
One game that is wild to think about how this season has progressed is the Ravens vs. Falcons. The idea was a few weeks ago anyone picking Atlanta in this one is wild, but today we’re looking at most of the panel picking the hot Dirty Birds to take down Baltimore — which may or may not be missing Lamar Jackson. We will have to wait to see that.
Here are all our picks for Week 5.
