The Griff Report : Pro Football Edition

October 3, 2025 NFL Week 5 Vikings -3.5 Browns in London – The Vikings here my pick of course you may want to hope for a live bet but I think Flores will be causing problems for Gabriel in his first NFL start, its in a foreign country and the Vikings just played in Ireland last week. Minnesota -3.5 Cowboys ml at jets I know the Cowboys defense has looked back at times but this is the Jets here, Dak beat them 31-10 a few years ago. The Cowboys haven’t won in New York since 2003, but the two sides only meet every four years. 95% consensus money line on the Cowboys, as I know the Jets are looking for their first win but Dallas is looking they could be outscoring people all year who knows. Raiders 10 % +7 at colts Consensus all 90% on the Colts -7, but I’ll go with Geno Smith as the 7 point underdog. Colts haven’t beat Raiders by 7 or more in a game in Indianopolis since 2004. Las Vegas +7 and OVER 48. Giants +2 71 % vs Saints After thinking about it this is also the best chance for the Saints to not go winless, they are favored and this is a tough road environment. I’ll take the Saints and UNDER 42, which is a fade of the ATS consensus but inline with money line consensus. Texans -130 vs Baltimore – Ravens still taking in money consensus as we are finally gonna see a healthy dose of Henry 61% consensus still on the Ravens, but I think its the Texans who will pull off the win with Huntley at QB for the Ravens and the defense not looking that well either. Houston has never won in Baltimore they are 0-8. My pick the Texans who’s defense plays pretty well as of late. It would be a historic win for the Texans franchise. Eagles -4 vs. Broncos Broncos haven’t won in Philly since 1986, and I don’t expect this to be their day either. Philadelphia 69% consensus -4, 87% consensus on the money line. Dolphins vs. Panthers Dolphins haven’t won in Carolina since 09 game is 51 and 49 Carolinas way on money line consensus. 59% ATS -1 Miami way. This game is a toss up recent history of 23 the last meeting but that was in Miami. Bryce Young is also decisively better at home than his horrible record. I’ll take the Panthers money line. Cardinals -8 vs. Titans Don’t trust either team here, for picking for pick sake Cardinals -8 but my pick here is the Under 41. I’m thinking a 20-14 win would get it done here so lay those points or don’t because the Titans are desperate to try to get off the mat themselves. Under 41 Lions -10.5 vs Bengals Detroit hasn’t won in Cincinnati since 1992. For whatever reason maybe the Lions don’t fare well in the jungle. There goes the entire argument for Bengals because from what we seen since the Burrow injury wagering too much on the Bengals seems like an entirely foolish operation. For the podcast and because that is a local game I just hope the Bengals can keep it within 10. Bengals +10.5 but 92% consensus is not, they are on the Lions -10.5. Chargers -3 vs. Washington. Not since 1986 has the Washington franchise won a road game at the Chargers franchise. After last week I look for the Chargers to get back at it after the loss. I would just money line instead of laying 3 because they have a way of winning by 3. Chargers 79% consensus Seahawks -3.5 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers haven’t won in Seattle since 2009. 61% consensus on the road team Buccaneers. I think Seattle is a much improved team this year and that is why they are favored against a Tampa squad that doesn’t always fare well without Mike Evans 3-10 all-time when he is out for injury or suspension. Seattle -3.5 Chiefs vs. Jaguars We’ve seen this matchup the last 8 times go KC’s way, and this will be a true barometer for how much have the Jags improved. Still until they win this game I can’t see it happening because recent matchups have gone only KC. Chiefs -190, but if you wait you’ll be able to get this one at even money as at some point I would say Jacksonville has to want the lead. Chiefs money line its only 57% consensus as the Jags money line appears to be the pick at a lot of places, but I’ll have to see it to believe it. 78 % on Chiefs -3.5. Bills -9 87% consensus as the “Bills Mafia” looks for a cover. That has not been the way of the matchup however. It looks like they would’ve covered that 4 out 9 times they played, with the last 4 having been close. You can expect New England to be running the ball. No love at the betting window for the Patriots. Bills -9. As always best of luck and enjoy your Sunday. NFL Week 5
