NFL odds, picks for Week 5: Advanced computer model loving Cowboys and Chargers

• By CBS Sports Staff

One of the Week 5 NFL picks the model is all over: the Chargers cover as 5.5-point home favorites over the Raiders.

The Raiders notched their first win since head coach Jon Gruden's return last week compliments of late mistakes by the Browns. However, the model doesn't expect that momentum to carry over. Instead, look for the 2-2 Chargers to get back over .500 with a convincing win.

Fueled by a projection of well over 300 yards and two touchdowns for Philip Rivers, not only does the SportsLine model expect the Chargers to cover in 60 percent of simulations, it also has them winning 32-22 to cover with ease. That final score also means there's value on the Over (53.5), so you can lock that pick in as well. The model is also calling for Chargers running back Melvin Gordon to shred the Raiders' run defense, accounting for almost 130 yards from scrimmage and at least one end zone visit

No, we are over that now - we actually closed out a game last week that we used to lose AND we have a new holder. Super Bowl!

Offensively we need to be aggressive and execute. We have a ton mismatches to exploit.
Defensively we need to make stops on 3rd down, apply pressure, tackle, and poach some TOs.
STs need to not fuck up and contribute to a win!

Rivers had a 4th Q comeback win last week. Two thumbs up.

Okung as questionable is encouraging kinda. Barks is on this list far too much!

Okung is a warrior.

Why is white out??? I might sound stupid. I know its his knee. But is there any word if its serious?? Is it a bone bruise? Hes vital to this yeam if we dont want Emmanuel on the field. Someone please if you know if its serious or not lmk so i can mentally prepare. I cant take Emmanuel being out there without almost have a stroke
