Free NFL Picks – Week 5

5 October 2008

It's not too late to get your picks in for the fifth week of the NFL season. Here are my free NFL picks for the week. I'm not picking every NFL game, because who needs help with Cincinnati-Dallas? This week I'm taking a look at four different games and giving you my free NFL picks that can help raise your game, whether it's in an office pool, online betting, or just for fun.

Redskins - Eagles

The Eagles have some injuries, and the Redskins have been improving steadily since their first week lackluster performance. They are also coming off a huge win at Dallas, one that could go to give a lot of confidence to Jason Campbell and the rest of the team. But, the Eagles have an attacking, aggressive defense that can give the still green Campbell fits. Expect Jim Johnson to dial up blitz early and often, and for the Eagles to build a big lead. The first of four free NFL picks for the week: Eagles over Redskins.

Vikings - Saints

The Vikings have had a rough go of the beginning of the 2008 NFL season. On the road against a New Orleans team that is playing some good football. Drew Brees might be the best quarterback in the NFL through 4 weeks. But two players stand out to me in this game: Adrian Peterson and Reggie Bush. Reggie Bush... ain't no Adrian Peterson. The overrated Bush is going to get flattened against the Vikings stout line, and Peterson is going to run for at least 150 yards against the Saints. Vikings with a big road win, in my second of four free NFL picks for the week.

Steelers - Jaguars

I'm tired of it being the Jaguars year. Every year, at least the last three, we've heard about how the Jaguars are the underdog to win the AFC. And they've always had a strong team, but they've always managed to come up short. Pittsburgh is tough and focused this season, but they are coming off a couple of brutal games against the Eagles and Ravens. The Jaguars running game takes advantage of a bruised up defense, while the Jaguars line punishes an ailing Big Ben. Jaguars in the big Sunday night game.

I've made three of my free NFL picks for Week 5 of the NFL season, it's time for one more:

Buccaneers - Broncos

A lot of people are picking the Buccaneers to win this game. The Broncos defense is beyond suspect, it's convicted! Earnest Graham should have a field day. But the Broncos are tough to beat at home, and I believe the team has a major chip on their collective shoulder right now. Cutler has been having a great season, making Shanahan once again look look like a genius. And we all know Jeff Garcia should be playing in place of Brian Griese for the Bucs. After this week, he will be, as Griese has an awful go at it against his former team. Broncos win at home, and the defense comes up big.

There you go, four free NFL picks for the fifth week of the 2008 NFL season. I'll check back in next week to see how I did!
