Week 5 features the first byes of the year, with the Detroit Lions, Los Angeles Chargers, Philadelphia Eagles, and Tennessee Titans all off this weekend.
Our contributors here on The Phinsider have made their straight-up winners picks for each game on the schedule. This is a year-long picks pool, predicting the winner of each game from Week 1 through the Super Bowl to see who can make the most correct predictions.
While we focus on the straight-up winner for the picks, we can also make picks against the spread set by the oddsmakers at FanDuel sportsbook.
We evenly split the Thursday Night Football results, with Sumeet Jena and Marek Brave correctly picking the Falcons while James McKinney and I both thought the Buccaneers would win.
Here are our picks for the full Sunday schedule. The widget is brought to use courtesy of Tallysight. Note: Due to the early start of the Jets vs. Vikings game, my pick for the Jets vs. Vikings game did not make it into the widget in time. I picked the Vikings straight up and to cover the -2.5 point spread.
