NFL Week 5 Odds, Picks & Predictions: Falcons vs. Buccaneers

Tom Brady and the Bucs host the Falcons who are the last remaining unbeaten at-the-spread team in the NFL. But an uphill battle awaits them down in Tampa.

First, let’s talk injuries. Cordarrelle Patterson is out for week 5 and Kyle Pitts is still questionable, two fundamental parts of the Falcons’ offense. While Tampa Bay isn't fully healthy, they are getting an integral Chris Godwin back.

If the Bucs want to win this game, they will need to stop the run-heavy offense. So far, Tampa Bay is averaging just over 100 rushing yards per game given up. Without Patterson in the backfield, the Falcons may have a tough time getting the offense rolling.
