In Buffalo’s three lopsided losses to the Ravens, Chargers, and Packers, Josh Allen played like a rookie. In the Bills’ two wins, Allen looked more comfortable and the offense therefore played better as whole. Which Josh Allen do we see this weekend? Sportdbooks have given Bills backers 10 points to work with.
Are the Panthers good? Well, they are 3-1. They also accomplished that with the 27th-ranked total offense and the 25th-ranked passing offense. These facts help to highlight how good their ground game is. They are first in the NFL thanks to Chrisitan McCaffrey, and a quarterback that doubles as one of the best runners in the game. Are the Redskins skilled enough at stopping the run? Rick Wise analyzes the matchup and makes his NFL pick.
There are wide ranging opinions on Joe Flacco. He’s definitely experienced as many valleys as he has peaks over his career, but a Joe Flacco with time is among the league’s elite at the position. Against the Steelers, he had so much time in the pocket that by the start of the second quarter the Ravens were all but guaranteed to improve on their 11th ranking in passing. How much time will Flacco have vs the Browns? Rick Wise gives his prediction.
Jacksonville is far from an offensive powerhouse. They rank 15th in the league in passing yards per game, 15th in total offense and 21st in scoring offense. But because they possess one of the best defenses in the league they do enough on offense to win. Can the Jag D stop the Chiefs on Sunday? Rick Wise breaks down his NFL pick.
Coming into last week’s game, the Titans were a running team, coming in second to last in the NFL in pass attempts.

Which team should the Eagles prepare for next Sunday and does it matter. Rick Wise looks at the 3 point spread and gives his week 5 pick.
