NFL Week 5 Predictions Straight Up and Against the Spread: Can Cowboys Overcome Steelers on Sunday Night?
As the 2024 NFL season enters October, we’re beginning to see the first bye weeks with the Chargers, Eagles, Lions, and Titans taking a break early this season.
However, Week 5 promises exciting matchups, starting with a Thursday night clash in the NFC South as the Atlanta Falcons take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This weekend also marks the beginning of the International Series, featuring the struggling New York Jets facing the impressive (and unbeaten) Minnesota Vikings at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday morning.
This typical Sunday will showcase several must-watch games, including the highly anticipated reunion between Stefon Diggs and the Buffalo Bills as they visit the Houston Texans. The Jacksonville Jaguars, still searching for their first win, will try once more to break through against the Indianapolis Colts, and many are optimistic about their chances. Sunday Night Football highlights a classic matchup between two storied franchises: the Dallas Cowboys versus the Pittsburgh Steelers, although injury concerns for both teams might affect the game. On Monday night, the Kansas City Chiefs aim to improve their record to 5-0 but will do so without injured wide receiver Rashee Rice.
Will they succeed? Our team of NFL experts weighs in with their predictions for this game and the other 13 games this week—remember, past results don’t guarantee future outcomes.
