Best NFL Week 5 Teasers: Banking on Teams to Score All the Way
This Week, We These Teams’ Offenses
Prolific Offenses Carry our Week 5 Teasers
Last week, we banked on defenses to deliver. And they did. But we all know that it’s much more fun cheering for a team to score than the other way. So for our NFL Week 5 teasers, we focused on the great teams – the ones who’d put up a lot of points and make it worth watching. These three are also contenders and may even be worth stacking in a parlay.
Spread: Buffalo (-5.5)
Day/Time:
Location: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London, UK
Records: Jets (1-3), Broncos (1-3)
Streaming: NFL Network
The NFL injuries.
Sure, we can’t discount the other Jaguars also have a bit of an advantage already acclimating to London. This team will not just let Buffalo blow them out. But its defense is not that great and its running game is struggling. Still, in the event Buffalo starts slow, that’s why you use an NFL Week 5 teaser. Tease Bills -4.5 (-130)
Spread: Lions (-10)
Day/Time:
Location: Ford Field, Detroit, MI
Records: Panthers (0-4), Lions (3-1)
Streaming: FOX
In this catfight, there is an easy one to back: the Lions. For one, this NFL game within 10 points.
As such, teasing Carolina’s formidable front-seven. And the offense can do enough to cover our teaser. Tease Lions -8.5 (-140)
Spread: San Francisco (-3.5)
Day/Time:
Location: Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, CA
Records: Cowboys (3-1), 49ers (4-0)
Streaming: NBC
Despite how popular this rivalry is, the Cardinals, who just upset the Cowboys. Kyle Shanahan’s squad is just more cohesive on both ends of the ball.
Dallas has explosive capabilities. This team is still putting up 31 points a game (fourth overall) and has allowed the fewest points in return (10.3 a game). Still, we saw how the team can struggle in its red zone execution. The Cowboys have plenty of playmakers on both sides. But when you have something similar in San Francisco, it comes down to coaching.
All of our money is on Shanahan over Mike McCarthy. San Francisco should beat Dallas just as soundly as it did in the playoffs. But to avoid any bad beats, tease San Fran’s spread down to under a field goal. Tease 49ers -2.5 (-160)
