NFL Picks Week 5: Last Minute Picks for All Sunday Games

Week 5 of the NFL is about to kick off and we have a ton of great matchups.  We have all the latest injury news, making it time for some last minute predictions.

Philadelphia Eagles vs. Buffalo Bills

The Eagles will pull off a much needed victory, thanks to a big performance by Michael Vick.  Philadelphia will do a lot more blitzing, while creating a few turnovers.

Kansas City Chiefs vs. Indianapolis Colts

Indianapolis losses some ground in the Andrew Luck sweepstakes, with their first victory.  The past two weeks, Indianapolis has shown improvement and appear ready for a win.  I think we will see Curtis Painter's first 300 yard passing day.

Arizona Cardinals vs. Minnesota Vikings

The Vikings are another team that gets their first win.  Today, we will see a heavy dose of Adrian Peterson.  The combination of Peterson's running and home field advantage, will give Minnesota their first victory.

Seattle Seahawks vs. New York Giants

I am not sold on the New York Giants, but am equally unimpressed with the Seahawks.  Seattle will struggle on offense, unable to protect Tavaris Jackson.

Tennessee Titans vs Pittsburgh Steelers

I have a hard time figuring out how the Titans are 3-1.  However, I think they get a little exposed today.  Tennessee's lack of offensive playmakers will make it difficult for them to pull off the victory.

New Orleans Saints vs Carolina Panthers

This might be crazy, but I think the Panthers pull off the upset.  This team has done a great job all season.  They are just a few plays away from having a much better record.

Cincinnati Bengals vs. Jacksonville Jaguars

I really like this revamped Bengals offensive attack.  The combination of AJ Green and Jermaine Gresham is really deadly.  I think we see AJ Green with another 100 yard receiving day.

Oakland Raiders vs Houston Texans

Two teams that will be looking to run the football, the outcome depends on who can stop the rush.  I have more faith in the Raiders defense to bottle up Arian Foster.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. San Francisco 49ers

This will be a close game, but Tampa Bay has too many offensive weapons.  I just don't see the 49ers scoring enough points to get the victory.

San Diego Chargers vs. Denver Broncos

Denver is one of the toughest places to play, but the team just doesn't have enough talent.  I think the home-field advantage keeps it close, with Phillip Rivers winning the game with a late drive.

New York Jets vs. New England Patriots

The Jets play some good football today, but just can't keep pace with Tom Brady.  I have a hard time believing this Jets offense can score enough points to beat the Patriots.

Green Bay Packers vs Atlanta Falcons

This is another situation where offensive fire power will make the difference.  Atlanta isn't built to go score for score with Green Bay's offense.  Defensively I don't feel they can get enough stops.

Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions

As a Bears fan, I have a tough time writing this; the Lions are the better team and will get the victory.  The Bears lack of offensive consistency will be the deciding factor.
