No matter your betting preference, we have you covered!Last week, we covered plenty and turned a hefty profit in the proce s. We swept our three picks against the spread (Chiefs -2 over the Bucs, Eagles -6.5 over the Jags, and Seahawks +4.5 over the Lions) and then nailed two out of three moneyline picks (Bills -160 at Ravens and Vikings -165 vs. Saints). Talk about a strong week!MORE: Now that we have our bankroll built up, let's keep the gravy train rolling with our favorite picks from this week's slate. Without further ado, here are Sporting News' best bets for Week 5 of the 2022 NFL season, including picks against the spread, moneyline bets, over/under wagers, and some player props.JUMP TO: | | | All odds are courtesy of .Commanders (+2.5) vs. TitansCarson Wentz and the Commanders got thrashed by the Cowboys last weekend, taking multiple sacks and throwing multiple interceptions, but against inferior secondaries, Washington's pa sing game has thrived. The Titans have a bad secondary.Well, it's not so much bad as it is inexperienced. Between safety Amani Hooker and cornerbacks Caleb Farley and Kristian Fulton, nobody has hit the quarter-century mark in age. So, don't be fooled by the meager pa sing results of Tenne see's last two opponents, Indy and the Giants. This squad can't handle above-average pa sing games. The Titans surrendered 300-plus pa sing yards in Week 1 and 2 against Vegas and Buffalo and sit tied at fourth with the most pa sing yards allowed per game (274).Standout rookie back Brian Robinson Jr. will also be back for Washington, which could quickly become the story of the year if he's as good as it seemed this preseason. Robinson was shot in the legs during a car Samuel Fagemo Men Jersey -jacking attempt just before the season started. His recovery has been remarkable, and there's no way his return to the field doesn't hype up his teammates at home.I like the receiving trio of Terry McLaurin, Curtis Samuel, and Logan Thomas to step back up after a down week against Dallas. I also think Robinson and Antonio Gibson can net some chunk yards against a beatable Tenne see front-seven.The biggest i sue is the discrepancy in pa sing games. Ryan Tannehill and the Titans took a ma sive step down when Tenne see shipped out A.J. Brown, and rookie wideout Treylon Burks (the big return in the trade) is set to mi s time due to turf toe. With no real aerial threat, expect Titans lead back Derrick Henry to see a stacked box throughout this one. Consider buying a point for the field-goal insurance, but Washington might win this game outright.Cowboys (+4.5) at RamsTurmoil seemed imminent when Cowboys QB Dak Prescott went down with a broken thumb in a Game 1 trouncing by Tom Brady and the Bucs. But Cooper Rush has saved the season for Dallas, winning three consecutive games to extend his undefeated streak as a starter. It may seem reactionary to some, but Rush has got the goods! He's never going to light the world on fire, but he also won't accidentally blow off his thumb. He makes good decisions in the pocket and finds the open man while limiting mistakes.With an elite defense and an abundance of skill players at its Kelly Hrudey Women Jersey disposal, Dallas can survive with a strong game manager under center. That's exactly the type of team that can beat the reigning-champion Rams, as we well learned on Monday Night Football. The 49ers destroyed Matthew Stafford, limited L.A.'s run game, and kept the Rams out of the end zone all night. To the average fan, it was boring. To fans of defense and fundamentals, it was perfection.The Cowboys have all the pieces nece sary to upset the Rams and continue their miserable Super Bowl hangover. Linebacker Micah Parsons has looked like a Defensive Player of the Year candidate, while Trevon Diggs and the Dallas secondary have stifled opposing pa sing games. If L.A. thinks it can just force-feed Cooper Kupp downfield all game and dominate the Cowboys, it's got another thing coming. Give me the 'Boys to cover.NFL WEEK 5 PICKS: | Eagles (-5) at CardinalsThe Eagles are the last undefeated team standing ( ), playing remarkable football on both sides of the ball. They have seen year-to-year improvements in the pa s-rush, secondary, offensive line, running game, and pa sing game. The most impre sive part of Philly's transcendence from pretender to contender: Jalen Hurts.With stud wideout A.J. Brown in town, Hurts has almost immediately entered himself into the MVP conversation. He's seeing the field and making his reads so much Jeff Carter Men Jersey better. He's not rushing throws or tucking the ball to run as quickly as in his first couple of seasons. He's completing far more pa ses, throwing the ball deeper, and controlling the time of po se sion.Philly is clicking on all cylinders and now gets to roll into Glendale to face a Cardinals team that would be 1-3 if not for Hunter Renfrow's costly overtime fumble a couple of weeks ago. While Philly loves life with its new WR1, Arizona desperately mi ses suspended All-Pro receiver DeAndre Hopkins. Both Kyler Murray and James Conner have also struggled to establish the run.The Cardinals won't be able to keep up with Philly offensively, nor will their defense be able to contain Hurts. Arizona has surrendered 25.7 points per game this season, and Hurts and the Eagles are 9-1 in the last 10 games in which they have posted 24 or more points.Philadelphia is 3-1 against the spread this season, while Arizona is 0-2 ATS as a home underdog. Lock this in!Others worth a look:Seahawks (+5.5) at Saints,Lions (+3) at PatriotsMORE NFL WEEK 5: Chargers (-161) at BrownsWe love what we have seen from running back Nick Chubb and the Browns this season, but Cleveland won't have enough to measure up to Justin Herbert and the Chargers. With Austin Ekeler finally turning Jeff Zatkoff Men Jersey it up in the ground game and stud wideout Keenan Allen hoping to finally return from his hamstring injury, Los Angeles might have too many weapons to contain.The Browns had the softest first month in the NFL, opening against the Panthers, Jets, Steelers, and Falcons. Yet, they're 2-2 despite Chubb looking like a rushing king. This will be a rude awakening for Cleveland, especially if edge rusher Myles Garrett mi ses another game due to a sustained in his recen
