NFL Picks Week 5: San Francisco 49ers and the 3 Teams That Will Keep Rolling
We expect teams like the Green Bay Packers, New England Patriots and New Orleans Saints to go on winning streaks.
But there are a handful of other teams that will keep rolling this weekend and continue to build momentum toward a playoff push...

Projecting Every NFL Team's Starting Lineup 🔮

Rookie WRs Who Will Outplay Their Draft Value 📈
Give Jim Harbaugh a hand.
He is getting the best out of all his players right now, especially quarterback Alex Smith.
The defense is not shockingly aggressively attacking the football—they're only allowing 74 yards on the ground per game and their secondary is doing enough to keep their team in games.
It won't be easy against a sound Buccaneers team, but were you really that impressed on Sunday night?
I wasn't.
I think San Fran wins the run game battle and moves to 4-1 at home, increasing their lead in the NFC West.
New York Giants
Forget the "traveling from the West coast for a 1 o'clock game" theory.
OK, maybe it means something.
However, the Giants are a far more talented club and Eli Manning is playing up to his potential for really, the first time in two years.
Tarvaris Jackson played well against the Falcons defense last week. Unfortunately for Jackson, however, the Giants defense is a little more stingy because of their ferocious pass rush.
New York wins, and wins big.
Green Bay Packers
Traveling to play a road Sunday Night game in the Georgia Dome is never easy, but this Falcons team is not the same club we saw from a year ago.
The loss of Brent Grimes is taking a bigger toll on their secondary, which ranks 24th against the pass.
Aaron Rodgers was tremendous in the divisional playoff game last year throwing for 366 yards and three downs with only five incompletions—why wouldn't he be able to do something similar this week?
Pack to 5-0.
