NFL Picks Week 5: New York Giants Vs. Houston Texans

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.

Line: Texans are three point favorites.

The pick: Texans

Brian Galliford: Houston’s offense is simply too good for the team to let down against an offensively-challenged opponent at home.

Jason Kirk: The Giants have turned the ball over three or more times in every game this year, while the Texans only have four takeaways. Something’s gotta give or take.

Dave Halprin: The Giants revived their defense last week, but going on the road to Houston is too much; Matt Schaub goes off for a Texans win.
