Welcome to Week 5 of the 2018 NFL season. Here’s a look at this week’s odds so you can place your bets with ease.

The 2018 NFL season is flying by, as it always does. We are four weeks in, and here’s what we know so far.

The Los Angeles Rams have proved that they are hands down the best team in the league and are going to absolutely run away with the NFC West. The Kansas City Chiefs have the most exciting quarterback in football with first-year starter Patrick Mahomes, and right now they look like the cream of the crop in the AFC. The Chicago Bears have been somewhat of a surprise team with their nasty defense. And even though they are 1-2-1, the Cleveland Browns have shown that they finally have a bright future with rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield.

Now that we know, for the most part, how good or bad teams are this year, it makes it easier to place those bets and win some money. Here is a look at the complete list of odds for the NFL’s Week 5 slate…

Thursday, Oct. 4

Indianapolis Colts at New England Patriots (-3)

Sunday, Oct. 7

Atlanta Falcons at Pittsburgh Steelers (-3)

Baltimore Ravens (-3) at Cleveland Browns

Denver Broncos at New York Jets (-1)

Green Bay Packers (-1.5) at Detroit Lions

Jacksonville Jaguars at Kansas City Chiefs (-3)

Miami Dolphins at Cincinnati Bengals (-6)

New York Giants at Carolina Panthers (-7)

Tennessee Titans (-3.5) at Buffalo Bills

Oakland Raiders at Los Angeles Chargers (-5.5)

Arizona Cardinals at San Francisco 49ers (-4.5)

Los Angeles Rams (-7) at Seattle Seahawks

Minnesota Vikings at Philadelphia Eagles (-3)

Dallas Cowboys at Houston Texans (-3.5)

Monday, Oct. 8

Washington Redskins at New Orleans Saints (-6.5)

I wish I could say that there were one or two Week 5 matchups that seem like a pretty safe bet, but it doesn’t look like any of these games are a sure thing. And after the Bills dominated the Vikings as 17-point underdogs in Week 3, any wagers made from here on out will be made at your own risk. Best of luck, everyone.
