Geoff Schwartz offers up his best bets for NFL Week 5. Find out which underdogs he likes to cover and why he's backing Sam Darnold and the Vikings against Aaron Rodgers and the Jets.
There are a couple of things we bettors have learned for sure this NFL season about two teams that are perfect on the moneyline. One thing we know is that the Vikings are for real. Another thing we know is that the Chiefs need to rely on their defense to be successful. Can these 4-0 squads keep it rolling in Week 5? Let's dive into my best bets for this weekend's slate. SUNDAY, OCT. 6 JETS @ VIKINGS Minnesota is 4-0, standing with the Chiefs as one of the last two undefeated teams.
Vikings to win by more than 2.5 points BILLS @ TEXANS The Bills are in a tough spot this weekend. For them, Week 5 marks back-to-back road games against potential AFC title contenders. Buffalo got blown out by the Ravens on Sunday night and now heads back on the road to face the 3-1 Texans. The issues the Bills have — which aren’t many — can be exploited by the Texans like we saw the Ravens do. Houston can run the ball well and attack some of the secondary weaknesses.
Texans to lose by fewer than 1.5 points, or win outright MONDAY, OCT. 7 SAINTS @ CHIEFS The Chiefs are one of two unbeaten teams in the NFL after four weeks. They've won four games by an average of five points. They’ve played three playoff-caliber teams in those four games, but their pattern of playing close has carried over from last season to now. While Kansas City has Patrick Mahomes, the team just doesn't generate enough explosive pass plays to blow out opponents.
Saints to lose by fewer than 5 points, or win outright Geoff Schwartz is an NFL analyst for FOX Sports. He played eight seasons in the NFL for five different teams.
