The Oddsmakers\u2019 lines for Week 5 in the NFL were razor thin with seven favorites and seven underdogs each covering against the spread. The total line was evenly split as well with seven games going OVER and seven staying UNDER.<\/p>\n
Moving on to this week\u2019s games I have uncovered a couple of matchups that come together perfectly to form this Sunday\u2019s NFL parlay of the week based on lines provided by [dfads params=’groups=63740&limit=1&return_javascript=0′].<\/p>\n
Pointspread: Kansas City -10 Oakland improved its record to 2-3 straight-up on the year with a 27-17 victory over San Diego in a game that stayed UNDER the 46-point closing line.<\/p>\n The total has now stayed UNDER in four of its first five games. The Raiders\u2019 offense is ranked 23rd in the NFL in scoring with an average of 19.6 points a game, while its defense is holding teams to an average of 21.6 points a game.<\/p>\n The dramatic turnaround in Kansas City from a team that won just two games all last season to one that is off to a perfect 5-0 start has been fueled by an offense that does not turn the ball over and a defense that does not allow teams in its end zone. [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n The Chiefs are currently ranked first in the NFL in points allowed; giving-up an average of just 11.6 points a game. Look for them to put the clamps on Oakland as well to keep this game UNDER the 40.5-point line.<\/p>\n Pointspread: New York -2 The Steelers are one of those early season head-shakers with a 0-4 start has them buried in the basement of the AFC North. They will be coming off a bye after losing to Minnesota 34-27 in a Week 4 matchup in London as three-point favorites.<\/p>\n The one positive take away from that game was an uptick in scoring from an offense that managed a combined 42 points in its first three games.<\/p>\n This team is not as bad as it has looked so far and a week off could mean all the difference for this Sunday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n New York is off to a surprising 3-2 start after last Monday night\u2019s stunning 30-28 victory over Atlanta as a 10-point underdog on the road.<\/p>\n The Jets did steal a game from Tampa Bay on a last second field goal in their season opener and they were blown-out by Tennessee 38-13 as 3.5-point road underdogs in Week 4 so I am still not buying what Rex Ryan\u2019s bunch is trying to sell.<\/p>\n Pittsburgh is 7-3 straight-up in the last 10 meetings and I fully expect the Steelers to get off the schneid with a SU win this time around to secure the back-end of this parlay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" NFL Parlay of the Week The Oddsmakers\u2019 lines for Week 5 in the NFL were razor thin with seven favorites and seven underdogs each covering against the spread.
