NFL Picks Week 5: Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions Will Improve to 5-0

This weekend, the NFL's two remaining undefeated teams face tough tests.

The Green Bay Packers travel to Atlanta to take on last year's No. 1 playoff seed in the Falcons on Sunday night.

Meanwhile, the Detroit Lions face a tough divisional home game against the Chicago Bears on Monday night.

Though they both face tough tests, they will both leave Week 5 with perfect records.

Here are some reasons why both teams will keep their unblemished records alive for at least one more week. 

Packers vs. Falcons

Last year, the Packers played the Falcons in Atlanta in the playoffs. The Packers were coming off a 21-16 win in Philadelphia and the Falcons had a first-round bye.

The Packers trounced the Falcons by a score of 48-21, thoroughly embarrassing the No. 1 seed in their house.

This year shouldn't be too much different.

The Packers have Jermichael Finley back on offense, which should counteract any benefit rookie Julio Jones has on the Falcons offense.

Other than that, these are pretty much the same two teams from last year.

Aaron Rodgers is still on fire. Matt Ryan and the Falcons are still slumping at 2-2.

I wouldn't expect the Falcons to pull off the upset on Sunday night, even with home field advantage.

Prediction: Packers 38, Falcons 20

Bears vs. Lions

If the Lions can force the Bears to become pass-happy again, they will have no problem winning this game.

That will allow Ndamukong Suh and company to wreak havoc in the backfield and add to Jay Cutler's ever-growing sack total. If the Bears can't block this defensive line, Cutler might not finish this game.

However, for this to happen, the Lions need to stop Matt Forte.

Forte ran for 205 yards against the Panthers last week. If that happens again, the Lions are going to have a long night.

As an NFC North opponent of the Bears, there will be no excuse for punting to Devin Hester.

I think Jim Schwartz and the Lions will be smart enough to keep the ball away from the best returner in the history of the NFL.

Oh, and if Calvin Johnson catches a game-winning touchdown again, you'd better believe he won't let go of that ball until Wednesday afternoon—just to make sure he completes the catch.

Prediction: Lions 24, Bears 17
