NFL Awesome Picks Spectacular Week 5

Because we here at Brainfart love us some football, we decided that we would not only be doing college football picks each week, but we would also be doing some NFL picks, too. So, here is where I make my NAPS (NFL Awesome Picks Spectacular):

Picks are in red

All lines are provided by Sportsbook.ag

Atlanta Falcons (-3) at Washington Redskins

Sunday 1:00

-  Washington has held strong this year with great RG3 performances, but the defense is bad - giving up 31 points a game - and they have not really played a team that is very good yet.  The Falcons come in hot after trying to lose against the Panthers.  The Skins will get their points but Matty Ice won't be stopped.

Chicago Bears (-5) at Jacksonville Jaguars

Sunday 4:00

- Same old Jaguars, maybe a tick better than last year, against the same old Bears.  The last two weeks the unusually healthy Bears defense is crushing and that won't stop against the Jags who are averaging 8 points a game in their first two home games.  Yikes.  You play this game almost any year since the Jaguars existed and the Bears win by a touchdown - that isn't changing this year. 

Tennessee Titans at Minnesota Vikings (-6)

Sunday 1:00

- The Vikings always have talent on the defensive line and they will feast on Matt Hasselbeck who probably doesn't move from the couch to the bathroom to pee.  Titans, good luck with that Chris Johnson resurgence.  For the people blinded by his 141 yards rushing, don't forget to check out the scoreboard which shows that they lost by 28!

Houston Texans (-9) @ New York Jets

Monday 8:30

- Some of the talking heads think this is the must win game for the Jets and that will motivate them.  Last I checked motivation alone won't stop JJ Watt and the Texans defense.  I don't think the Jets get over 13 points and I think Houston scores at least 24.  Those are my thoughts. Welcome to Tebow Time 2.0.
