Hall of Famer
Here we are in Week 5 of the NFL, and another week of waiting on the Ravens game as we will be rocking the Bank on Monday Night. Until then, let's make use of our Sunday Ticket subscriptions and enjoy some Sunday Football that will feature many games with playoff implications, a return to London, a AFC Championship Rematch and the start of the Coaching Carousel spinning?
Thursday Night Football
Rams @ Seahawks: The NFC West will begin to unfold as we find out which teams will likely stand tall at the end of 17 games. Last week was just the beginning as the Rams fell to the Cardinals and the Seahawks beat the 49ers, now they face each other. The Rams had no player listed on their final injury report but the Seahawks look likely not to have starting running back Chris Carson who is dealing with a neck injury. This has playoff implications written all over it.
Sunday Morning, 9:30am(London)
Jets @ Falcons: Ah yes London, the few times a year where east coast fans get to know what's it like to have Football all day. The NFL's return to London sees two rookie head coaches face off as the Falcons will "host" the "visiting" New York Jets. The Jets got their first win of the season last week while the Falcons blew another late lead but this time to Washington.
Sunday 1PM Early Games
Packers @ Bengals:
Lions @ Vikings:
Broncos @ Steelers: Pittsburgh looks to avoid their fourth straight loss, something that hasn't happened since 2016. The Broncos look like they may Teddy Bridgewater back after he missed the ending of the game last week. Pittsburgh is at home and desperate to turn their season around, something that might be enough to win this week.
Dolphins @ Buccaneers: Now that the love fest between Brady and Belichick is over with, the Bucs get back to normal. The Dolphins head to Tampa once again banking on Jacoby Brissett who should have a more difficult time this week against the Bucs defense. If Miami can take advantage of the injured Bucs secondary, it could be a close game.
Saints @ Washington: Trying to figure out who the real Saints and Washington teams are is like trying to figure out the new name of the Washington Football Team, it's complicated.
Eagles @ Panthers: Both teams loss in week four and look to rebound as Carolina continues to make moves as they acquired Stephon Gilmore to help bolster their secondary with the loss of Jaycee Horn. Philly meanwhile sits at 1-3 searching for answers in Nick Sirianni's first season. When the home fans are chanting for you to run the ball more, yeah something is a miss. The Eagles need a win here before the rest of their schedule gets brutal.
Titans @ Jaguars: It's safe to assume it's only a matter of time before Urban Meyer is fired and tries to fix his marriage in Southern California. So thankfully Trevor Lawrence won't be wasted by terrible coaching beyond this season but Tennessee should rebound nicely here after giving the Jets their first win of the season.
Patriots @ Texans: It's week five, Deshaun Watson is still sitting on the inactive list every week while Davis Mills gets thrown to the wolves. Mac Jones meanwhile showed his potential as he almost led a comeback against the Bucs if not for Nick Folk's attempt at replicating Justin Tucker's doink. The Patriots brought back Linebacker Jamie Collins for the third time in his career and should have a easy task taking on the tanking Texans.
4PM Late Games
Bears @ Raiders: The last time Khalil Mack played the Raiders in 2019, the game was in London and they were still calling Oakland home. Matt Nagy did the right thing naming Justin Fields the starter for the rest of the season, potentially saving him from being fired during the season if he went back to Andy Dalton. Derek Carr meanwhile hit a brick wall known as the Chargers defense last Monday and looks to rebound here as the Raiders look to get back on track with a win over Da Bears.
Browns @ Chargers: A game that will have AFC playoff implications on the line as Baker and his partially torn labrum will try to survive against Nick Bosa and the Chargers.
Giants @ Cowboys:
49ers @ Cardinals: The surprise of the season has to be that Arizona is the last undefeated team remaining in the NFL. Trey Lance is on his way to his first start of his NFL career after the injury to Jimmy G.
