Written by on August 3, 2018

It’s prediction season again, with the start of the 2018 NFL season now just about a month away. We are putting together SU picks for every week of the season, with the 2018 NFL Week 5 in the spotlight here. Be sure to check the latest NFL odds at MyBookie Sportsbook right before placing your ticket, but for now, let’s get right to the predictions.

2018 NFL Week 5 Early Picks for Every Game

Tennessee Titans at Buffalo Bills

The AFC South looks like it might be a good battle again this year, with the Titans among the favorites. This should be a win for Tennessee against a Buffalo team that is likely to struggle in 2018.

Atlanta Falcons at Pittsburgh Steelers

The Steelers have a brutal schedule ahead of them this season. One week after facing the Ravens, another set of birds comes to town. Look for a shootout here, and a Steelers win.

Denver Broncos at New York Jets

The Broncos are going to have a tough time making the playoffs this season. If they are to get in, these are the games they need to win. Let’s go with Denver here.

Jacksonville Jaguars at Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs are always tough to beat at Arrowhead, but I have a feeling that the Jags defense might give Mahomes fits, which is why I like Jacksonville to win.

Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions

The Lions are one of the teams in the NFL who might have a bit of a struggle on their hands this season. They are in a tough division, and could well be in trouble when they welcome the Packers in.

Baltimore Ravens at Cleveland Browns

The Ravens need to get back into the playoffs this season after a 3-year absence. A win should help them keep pace with the Steelers in the early part of the season.

New York Giants at Carolina Panthers

The Panthers are coming off an 11-win season, but also an early playoff exit. There is a very good chance that they can hot double-digit wins again this season, with a victory here adding to the total.

Miami Dolphins at Cincinnati Bengals

The Dolphins should be a little better this season with QB Ryan Tannehill back in the fold. This could be a tough season for Cincinnati, and I like the Dolphins to add to the misery in Week 5.

Oakland Raiders at LA Chargers

A good California battle on tap here, and one that is tough to handicap. The Chargers have made a habit of making a slow start to the season. If it happens again, look for them to break out and win here. Raiders at Chargers will be one of the best games in the 2018 NFL Week 5.

Arizona Cardinals at San Francisco 49ers

If the 49ers are to be as good as everyone expects this season, they need to make their home games count. This is certainly one that you would like them to win.

Minnesota Vikings at Philadelphia Eagles

Quite arguably the best game of the week, as it features a pair of legitimate Super Bowl contenders. I like the Vikings to go on the road and get a big win here.

LA Rams at Seattle Seahawks

I think that the Rams are going to be tough to stop this season, and while a trip to Seattle is never an easy one, I think LA come away with the win.

Dallas Cowboys at Houston Texans

This in-state rivalry looks to be a little better this season, as both of these teams should be improved. Let’s take the Texans for the win.

Washington Redskins at New Orleans Saints

It’s a year of change for the Redskins with Alex Smith taking the reins at QB. I don’t see him getting any joy in the Big Easy.
