NFL Parlay Payday: Top Week 5 parlay bet to make

Put these 5 NFL Week 5 bets into a parlay and we’ll get paid exponentially if all five bets hit.

Week 5 looks to be another wild week in the NFL with another Monday Night Football doubleheader due to rescheduling. To make your viewing experience even more enjoyable for Week 5, consider making a parlay bet. Parlay bets combine the outcome of multiple events to increase the potential payout to bettors.

Below, we will be creating a 5-bet NFL parlay for Week 5. This bet includes a few favorites and a few underdogs to increase the odds. Let’s take a look at our top Week 5 parlay.

Leg 1: Miami Dolphins (+330) at San Francisco 49ers

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Friday at 12:20 p.m. ET.

Any good parlay starts off with a surprising long-shot pick. This week, I like the Dolphins to upset the 49ers. Miami has one of the most improved defenses in the NFL and is extremely well-coached. With the Dolphins getting CB Byron Jones back into the lineup, they match up well with the 49ers’ young receivers.

Look for QB Ryan Fitzpatrick to make enough plays to keep them in this game and pull off a massive upset Sunday afternoon.

Leg 2: Indianapolis Colts at Cleveland Browns (-106)

Arguably the most interesting game of the week features two unlikely 3-1 teams in the Indianapolis Colts and Cleveland Browns. With Cleveland being at home and Indianapolis suffering a few injuries to its linebacker corps, don’t be surprised if the Browns have a ton of success on the ground once again.

This looks like a game in which the Browns will need QB Baker Mayfield to create a few plays down the field, and he certainly has the weapons to do so. Look for this to be a back-and-forth contest with Cleveland ultimately covering the 1-point spread and winning outright at home.

Leg 3: Carolina Panthers at Atlanta Falcons -1.5 (-110)

The Falcons host the Panthers in Week 5 coming off a tough Week 4 road loss against the Green Bay Packers. Carolina has one of the worst defenses in the NFL and the Falcons should have no problem at all throwing on the Panthers.

While Falcons WR Julio Jones‘ status is up in the air, take the Falcons with confidence despite their 0-4 record. They are just a bad matchup for the young Panthers in Week 5.

Leg 4: Philadelphia Eagles (+270) at Pittsburgh Steelers

To increase the odds of this parlay some more, we need to pick another underdog. That’s why I am suggesting you consider betting on the Eagles to upset the Steelers in Pittsburgh.

The Steelers are coming off an unplanned bye week and it wouldn’t be a shock if they came out a bit rusty in this contest. The Eagles have historically played well against the Steelers, winning 12 of their last 17 meetings. If they can protect QB Carson Wentz, don’t be surprised if he carves up this secondary. Expect this to be a close contest throughout as it will likely come down to the final possession.

Leg 5: Los Angeles Chargers at New Orleans Saints -8 (-110)

If this parlay makes it to Monday Night Football, it wouldn’t be the worst idea to consider hedging considering the potential payout, but for the final leg of our parlay, we’ll be taking the Saints with the points against the Chargers.

The Saints have been incredible against AFC opponents, losing just once in their last 12 games. With this game scheduled to be played in New Orleans on primetime, expect both sides of the ball to show up for the Saints. It could prove to be too big of a stage for rookie QB Justin Herbert and that’s why it wouldn’t be a surprise if the Saints won this game by double digits.
