NFL Week 5 Betting Trends for Every Team, Every Game (Steelers Reach Historical Feat as Huge Underdog vs. Bills)

It's amazing what stability can do for an NFL organization.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have had three NFL coaches going all the way back to the AFL/NFL merger in 1970: Chuck Noll (1969-1991), Bill Cowher (1992-2006), and Mike Tomlin (2007-current day).

As a result, they've gone 497-326 since 1969.

Yet even in down years, the Steelers were never as big of an underdog as they are this week when they head to Buffalo to face the Bills. If the line closes at 14, where it currently sits, it would be the first time since the merger that the Steelers have been two-touchdown underdogs in an NFL game.

Week 5 is chock-full of fascinating wagering trends that bettors can compile before making their selections this week. For example, you might have seen that Miami Dolphins backup quarterback Teddy Bridgewater has been one of the best bets in NFL history when it comes to covering the spread.

There's also Patrick Mahomes, who plays in his second straight primetime matchup on Monday Night Football vs. the Las Vegas Raiders. Over his career, Mahomes is 4-1-1 ATS on Monday Night Football, and 6-4 ATS in prime time against divisional opponents. In six career games vs. the Raiders, he's thrown for 22 touchdowns to just three interceptions.

Let's dive closer into every game's latest odds for Week 5 in the NFL, and take a look at several noteworthy betting trends for each team in their respective matchups:
