Week 5 Picks: There's a Heartbeat

Week 4 got a little better for my picks 10-5 straight up and 2-1 ATS. Covid-19 is spreading around the league thanks to the Titans but the Eagles are coming back to life slowly, let's see if they can keep the heart beat going.



DISCLAIMER: THIS IS BY NO MEANS ADVICE WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR MONEY, IT IS JUST FOR FUN


Totals so far:

ATS: 6-6

Straight Up: 38-24-1

Survivor Streak: Week 4

DFS points: 593 vs. Optimal: 1152


Locks of the week:

Arizona vs. New York Jets

Spread: Arizona -6.5 | Moneyline: ARI -335; NYJ +280

Pick: Arizona -6.5

Kyler Murray has had a little bit of a slump the last couple weeks, but he will bounce back this week against the lowly Jets. 6.5 feels really low so I don't see how they don't cover this.


Cleveland vs. Indianapolis

Spread: IND -2.5 | Moneyline: IND -118; CLE -103

Pick: Cleveland +2.5

This does feel like a sucker line since Cleveland is doing far better than they have in a couple decades. I still like Cleveland, I was very wrong about Baker Mayfield, he may pull out the season he needs to keep his career moving forward. OBJ had a career game last week and might keep that momentum going. The line is down to 1 in some places but I'm still taking Cleveland, money-line is a play here too.


LA Chargers vs. New Orleans

Spread: NO -8 | Moneyline: NO -345 | LAC +290

Pick: NO -8

While Justin Herbert is clearly going to be the QB going forward I don't think this spot against Drew Brees on Monday Night Football is when he will cover the spread as an underdog. Rookies are funny but Drew Brees is too experienced to let this one slip away especially when they need a win.


Survivor Pick: San Francisco

PIT, TB, CLE and LAR were already used. Dallas is the obvious choice this week, but I'm going with the return of Jimmy G taking down the Dolphins. It's going to be a game where Tua ends up coming into so, I don't expect the dolphins to have a shot.


Straight up Picks

NOTE: Buffalo vs. Tennessee is delayed until Tuesday currently and NE vs. DEN is going to be played on Monday.
