NFL Week 5 ‘Thursday Night Football’ game picks and predictions

The first quarter of the 2022 NFL season is officially in the books. Well, I guess with 17 games, it hasn’t technically been the first quarter yet, but it’s close enough. Through the first four games, we’ve seen an NFL that features a lot of parity in the low-to-middle area with a few elite teams at the top: the Buffalo Bills (-14)

in the AFC, and the Philadelphia Eagles (-5) in the NFC. Otherwise, things look pretty wide open—particularly in the NFC.

To kick Week 5 off, we’ve got a Thursday Night Football matchup between two teams that should be more interesting than they are.
