Among the notable Week 5 NFL odds, the Colts are -7 against the Raiders, the Eagles are -4.5 against the Broncos and the Seahawks are -3.5 against the Buccaneers. Zooming in on the primetime action, Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills are -8.5 against the Patriots on &#8216;Sunday Night Football,&#8217; while Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs are -3.5 against the Jaguars on &#8216;Monday Night Football.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The byes, plus notable injuries to players like Lamar Jackson and CeeDee Lamb, bring some challenges for Week 5 NFL betting, but there&#8217;s still plenty of value on the board.

NFL is one of his strengths, and he enters Week 5 on a 29-10 run (74%) on NFL picks, returning more than $1,000 for $100 bettors.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>One of his top picks is backing the Jets to go Over 22.5 total points (-111). &#8220;Dallas has allowed at least 24 points in all four games and at least 31 in the past three,&#8221; Severance said. &#8220;Really all this play is when it comes to the sorry Jets. I watched most of Monday&#8217;s game in Miami and they moved the ball well but then either fumbled or committed a stupid penalty. But I think they can certainly score 23 at home on this Dallas defense.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/experts\/50774572\/matt-severance\/?league=nfl#ttag=10032025_agg_cbssports_picks_football_nfl_Week5NFLexpertshub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">See all of Severance&#8217;s NFL picks here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Top Week 5 expert NFL prop picks from Doug Kralstein\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Better known as &#8216;Prop Bet Guy,&#8217; Kralstein specializes in NFL props, and he enters Week 5 on a 27-15 run on NFL player props that has returned more than $1,000 for $100 bettors. One of his top prop picks this week is going Over 13.5 total receiving yards for Houston Texans running back Woody Marks (-114).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Woody Marks had his coming out party last week, pacing the Texans backfield with 69 rush yards and 50 receiving yards,&#8221; Kralstein said. &#8220;Billed as a pass-catching back coming out of USC, I like him to clear this low receiving yards line. His route share has climbed each week &#8211; Nick Chubb will still mix in on the ground, but I expect Marks on the field for most of the passing downs. He&#8217;ll face a depleted Ravens defense that&#8217;s allowing the fifth most receiving yards to running backs on the most targets per game. I&#8217;d bet this up to over 15.5 receiving yards.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/experts\/51314525\/prop-betguy\/?league=nflhttps:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/experts\/51302558\/daniel-vithlani\/?league=nfl#ttag=10032025_agg_cbssports_picks_football_nfl_Week5NFLexpertshub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">You can see all of Kralstein&#8217;s NFL picks here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Top Week 5 NFL expert picks from Daniel Vithlani<\/p>\n<p>Vithlani is another props specialist who uses his experience to zero in on the best prop lines on the market each week. He&#8217;s 17-11 on his past 28 NFL player props, returning +855 during that span. One of his prop picks this week: He likes David Montgomery as an anytime touchdown scorer (-180) as the Lions travel to take on the Bengals.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Montgomery is poised for a big game, as he&#8217;ll be playing in his hometown of Cincinnati for the first time,&#8221; Vithlani said. &#8220;Montgomery will have his family watching in the crowd, and has spoken in interviews about how much it will mean to him. A players coach like Dan Campbell surely knows the significance, and will likely try to feed Montgomery a score. After running for just 12 yards on 9 carries last week against the Browns, I expect a big bounce back performance in this &#8220;homecoming&#8221; spot against a bad Bengals defense. I like Montgomery to find the end zone, and to go over his rush yards total.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/experts\/51302558\/daniel-vithlani\/?league=nfl#ttag=10032025_agg_cbssports_picks_football_nfl_Week5NFLexpertshub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">See all of Vithlani&#8217;s NFL picks at SportsLine<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>How to make Week 5 NFL against the spread picks<\/p>\n<p>SportsLine&#8217;s team of experts also includes R.J.
