NFL Week 5 Betting Lines: Texans vs. Ravens Highlight Major Movements
Week 5 of the NFL season has arrived, providing a clearer view of the league’s landscape, with many games experiencing significant movement in the betting lines due to injuries and performance shifts.
If you’re keen on NFL betting, reviewing the fluctuations in lines before Sunday and Monday’s games is essential. Below is a breakdown of the notable changes:
Texans at Ravens (1 p.m. ET)
- Open: Baltimore -6.5, O/U 43.5
- Current: Houston -1.5, O/U 40.5
In light of Lamar Jackson being sidelined with a hamstring injury from last week’s game, the betting line has shifted dramatically, with the Ravens now underdogs at home.
Broncos at Eagles (1 p.m. ET)
- Open: Philadelphia -4.5
- Current: Philadelphia -3.5
Bit surprisingly, the Broncos sit at 2-2, facing the undefeated Eagles, needing to overcome recent close game losses.
Dolphins at Panthers (1 p.m. ET)
- Open: O/U 45.5
- Current: O/U 44.5
With the Dolphins missing Tyreek Hill for the season due to injury, the game’s total has slightly decreased as both teams struggle to find their rhythm.
Titans at Cardinals (1 p.m. ET)
- Open: Arizona -9.5
- Current: Arizona -7.5
Despite being favored, the Cardinals’ limited backfield options have led to adjustments in the spread.
Lions at Bengals (4:25 p.m. ET)
- Open: Detroit -8.5
- Current: Detroit -10.5
The Bengals’ struggles without Joe Burrow have shifted expectations heavily in favor of the Lions, who are hot on a winning streak.
