NFL Picks Week 5: Which Teams Will Roll Opposition?

One of the more intriguing games of the weekend pits two powerful offenses in New Orleans and Carolina.

The Panthers are 1-3, but their offense has received a significant boost thanks to the surprisingly explosive passing game led by rookie quarterback Cameron Newton.

Carolina, who was arguably the worst team in the NFL last year, is ranked third in the league in offense per game, racking up 471.5 yards per contest.

New Orleans' offense ranks second in the league.

Carolina hosts the Saints today in a matchup that actually, statistically, appears pretty even. However, the Saints are a team that does not rollover on the road, and Carolina has struggled mightily to put away games.

The Panthers have actually not been "blown out" like they were last season. They have lost three games by a total of 15 points. Technically, this team is a few plays away from being undefeated.

Even with that said, today should be a breakdown day for the Panthers against a Saints team led by Drew Brees. The Panthers rank 31st in the NFL against the run and will have to rely on their sixth-ranked pass defense against the prolific arm of Drew Brees.

Give the Saints a nod today.

The New York Giants should have their way with Seattle today. New York, at 3-1, hosts a 1-3 Seattle team that has been okay at home but shouldn't stand a chance on the road.

Seattle dropped their first two road games, and there's not a single statistical category that might sway someone on their side as they visit the Meadowlands.

Another game that should be a blowout is the match-up between the Chargers and Broncos. Denver has been the most controversy-surrounded team in the NFL so far this year, and they go up against a potent Chargers team that some think could be a Super Bowl contender.

Here's four blowouts to look for:

Giants over Seahawks

Steelers over Titans

Saints over Panthers

Chargers over Broncos
