2010 NFL Week 5 Picks and Podcast

Ok so week 4 wasn’t so great but we held our own against the ESPN crew and they only pick straight up. Ryan’s 9-5 against the spread last week was one of the best around the interwebs. This week’s lineup of games is really weak. Out of 14 games, there are maybe 3 worth really paying attention to. Nevertheless, we’ve got insight into every game, crappy or not. (The games that is, not the insight.)

The featured games this week are KC @ Indy, NY Giants @ Houston, Tennessee @ Dallas, and Minnesota @ NY Jets. We also discuss the MLB playoffs.

This week’s NFL betting odds are from Betus.
