NFL Picks Week 5: St. Louis Rams Vs. Detroit Lions

SB Nation bloggers Brian Galliford (Buffalo Rumblings), Jason Kirk (SB Nation Atlanta) and Dave Halprin (Blogging The Boys) have taken a look at the schedule and given us their NFL Week 5 picks.

St. Louis Rams (2-2) vs. Detroit Lions (0-4)

Line: Lions are three point favorites.

The pick: Rams

Jason Kirk: The Lions could be 3-1 right now, but the Rams have the edge at almost every position. We don’t get to say that very often.

The pick: Lions

Brian Galliford: It’s hard not to like the way the Rams are playing, but Detroit’s offense is dynamic enough to eke out a home win.

Dave Halprin: The Rams are playing improved football, but a desperate Lions team gets just enough done to win at home.
