Week 5 NFL picks for Texans vs. Bills
Before tuning into Sunday’s Texans vs. Bills game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine’s advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 5 of the 2024 NFL season on an incredible 188-131 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. It is also on a 42-23 roll on top-rated NFL betting picks since Week 7 of 2022.
For Texans vs. Bills, the model is backing Buffalo to cover the spread on the road. There will be a spotlight on Stefon Diggs as he plays against his former team, but this game could realistically be difficult for both teams to get their pass game going.
Houston’s pass defense ranks fourth in the NFL while Buffalo’s ranks sixth, so both Allen and Stroud may have to rely on their running backs. The Bills run defense is one of the weakest in the league, but the Texans rushing corps is dealing with a plethora of injuries. Even with such a narrow spread, the model has the Bills covering in over 50% of simulations. You may be able to stream the game here.
