Analysis
It’s nice that Andy Dalton and the Cincinnati Bengals picked up a convincing 31-7 win over the Cleveland Browns this past weekend, but the Buffalo Bills are clearly the better team in this Week 5 pairing seeing as how to rank a phenomenal first in points allowed (13.5 ppg) and come into this contest off two stunning wins over legitimate Super Bowl contenders by taking down Denver 26-26 in Week 4 and stunning Atlanta 23-17 this past Sunday. The Bills have the edge at quarterback with Tyrod Taylor being better than Dalton and surely at head coach where Sean McDermott is clearly inspiring his team more than longtime Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis. I’m expecting the Bills to use their stout defense to force Andy Dalton to be forced into at least one costly turnover and likely two. The Bills are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games following an ATS win while Cincinnati is just 2-5 ATS in their last seven home games and 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 games against a team with a winning record. The Bills get the outright ‘upset’ win, but really, this won’t be an upset at all. NFL Betting Pick: Buffalo +3Green Bay Packers (3-1) at Dallas Cowboys (2-2)

Analysis
The Dallas Cowboys have a pass defense that is absolutely mediocre at its very best and the prize waiting for them inside their Cracker Jack Box this week is a date with arguably the best quarterback in the game today – Green Bay Packers superstar Aaron Rodgers. I know that second-year stars Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott are the foundation for a Dallas offense that is pretty good, but again, Dallas’ defense looks a lot like Swiss cheese when it comes to stopping the pass as they showed in their 35-30 loss on Sunday as Jared Goff and the Los Angeles ramRamsis past weekend. Aaron Rodgers led the Packers to an emphatic 35-14 win over longtime NFC North division rival Chicago on Thursday night, not to mention the fact that the Packers have won six of the last seven meetings against Dallas, including last season’s 34-31 divisional round playoff win. Green Bay is 9-3 ATS in their last dozen games following an SU win and 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games overall. Conversely, Dallas is just 1-6 ATS in their last seven games against a team with a winning record and 0-4 ATS in their last four home games against a team with a winning road record.
