NFL Week 5 best bets: Backing the Bears, Texans and a touchdown prop for Davante Adams

The Texans are due, the Bears have a favorable matchup, and a handful of player props stand out as value plays heading into Week 5

Coming off a 3-2 week, these are the five bets I It was a good Week 4. Not a great Week 4, but a good one. We went 3-2 on best bets, nailing both game picks. The Cowboys beat the Texans as slight road underdogs, and the Jaguars, also slight road underdogs, beat the Bengals. Those were two bold calls, and both games came down to the final possession, but I was glad to be on the right side. Sometimes you gotta be bold. We also cashed in on Kirk Cousins 1+ interception, and that one also came down to, quite literally, the Raiders' final offensive play. Better late than never!

My two misses were frustrating ones. I pegged Josh Downs to record 5+ receptions and 50+ yards against the struggling Commanders secondary. Neither happened as Daniel Jones continued his season-long turnover woes with a fumble and an interception. When Washington had to turn to third-string quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis, the Colts took control and barely had to throw the ball. Furthermore, we missed on Aaron Jones Sr. 50+ rushing yards and anytime touchdown scorer. He ran for 94 yards but didn't find the end zone. In fact, the Vikings' offense has only had one touchdown over the past three weeks. I'm thinking we've gotta stay away from any positive Minnesota
