SportsbookWire’s NFL Week 5 picks: ML, ATS and O/U predictions for all games

The SportsbookWire staff makes their NFL Week 5 picks and predictions for moneylines, spreads and totals.

Before looking at SportsbookWire staff’s Week 5 NFL picks, here are the against-the-spread (ATS) and Over/Under (O/U) leaders, according to Teamrankings.com.

The Minnesota Vikings (4-0 straight up) are the only team still perfect ATS heading into Week 5. They improved to 4-0 ATS with a 31-29 win as 2.5-point underdogs at the Green Bay Packers in Week 4. The Vikings will put their perfect ATS mark on the line Sunday when they face the New York Jets (2-2 SU, 2-2 ATS) in London at 9:30 a.m. ET (NFL Network).

Minnesota is a 2.5-point favorite (-110), per BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds — last updated Thursday at 5:57 p.m. ET.

Two teams haven’t covered the spread in a game yet. They are the Miami Dolphins (0-4 ATS) and the Houston Texans (0-3-1 ATS). The Dolphins visit the New England Patriots (1-2-1 ATS) in a battle of 1-3 SU teams Sunday, while the Texans host the Buffalo Bills (2-2 ATS) in a Sunday matchup of 3-1 SU teams.

As for totals, there are no more perfect Over teams. The Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys were both 3-0 O/U after Week 3, but they cashed Under tickets last week. Heading into Week 4, they are 2 of 10 teams with 3-1 O/U records, joined by the Arizona Cardinals, Carolina Panthers, Green Bay Packers, LA Rams, New Orleans Saints, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks and Washington Commanders.

Eight teams were 3-0 to the Under before Week 3 action, but only 2 continued their low total run, as the LA Chargers and New York Giants improved to 4-0 to the Under last week. The Chargers have a bye this week, while the Giants visit the Seahawks (3-1 O/U) Sunday.
