NFL Week 5 best bets: Why we like Eagles and Lions on Sunday
Need help making your picks ahead of Sunday? Lorenzo Reyes shares his best bets for Week 5 games.
In American circles, “Big Ben” refers to a former quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers. On Sunday in Week 5, it’s the place where we’ll direct our eyes – awaiting kickoff of the NFL’s first London game in 2025.
The famous clocktower continues to tick towards the opening kick between the Minnesota Vikings and Cleveland Browns at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Fresh off a game in Dublin, the Vikings have made the trek from Ireland to England for this Week 5 showdown, where the Browns will debut their rookie quarterback, Dillon Gabriel. It adds an extra layer of intrigue to a matchup that was in need of some – especially after both teams turned in a pair of clunkers last week.
The London matchup serves as the appetizer for an entire buffet of football on Sunday – starting with breakfast and lasting until your late night snack.
Here are your operating hours for the NFL’s Sunday slate and specifically, what time the action gets started in London.
