Sunday, Oct. 8
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Buffalo Bills, 9:30 a.m.
The Jaguars won at Wembley Stadium last week, and now they try to make it two victories in a row in London, this time at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium against a Bills team fresh off a decisive victory over Miami. Watch this international game on NFL+ here.
New Orleans Saints at New England Patriots, 1 p.m.
Things are rough in New England right now, but the Patriots can start turning things back in the right direction with a win over the Saints. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts, 1 p.m.
Anthony Richardson looks like the real deal, which is huge for the Colts' rebuilding project. He'll look to start off his career against divisional rival Tennessee with a win. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers, 1 p.m.
Lamar Jackson and the Ravens have a chance to move to 3-0 in the AFC North after Week 5, with all three victories coming on the road. That would be significant, but it also won't be easy against the bitter rival Steelers. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
Carolina Panthers at Detroit Lions, 1 p.m.
The Lions were last seen running circles around longtime division bully Green Bay on "Thursday Night Football." What will they do vs. Bryce Young and Carolina for an encore? If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
Houston Texans at Atlanta Falcons, 1 p.m.
C.J. Stroud has been arguably the best rookie quarterback of this class so far, and now he faces an improved Atlanta defense on the road. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
New York Giants at Miami Dolphins, 1 p.m.
The Dolphins had a major letdown after their 70-point game, managing just 20 and struggling to keep pace with the Bills. The remedy could be a struggling Giants squad at home. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
Cincinnati Bengals at Arizona Cardinals, 4:05 p.m.
Joe Burrow's health has been a constant storyline this season for the Bengals, but it would go away (however temporarily) with a win over what's been a plucky Cardinals team. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
Philadelphia Eagles at Los Angeles Rams, 4:05 p.m.
The Eagles are 4-0 but have also been far from their standard. That's probably a good thing, although if they're not ready for Matthew Stafford, Puka Nacua and the Rams, their first loss could be imminent. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
New York Jets at Denver Broncos, 4:25 p.m.
The offseason war of words between Sean Payton and the Jets over former Broncos head coach and current New York offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett will finally see its payoff. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
Kansas City Chiefs at Minnesota Vikings, 4:25 p.m.
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs had a touch-and-go time in Week 4, but they still won. Now they get to face Kirk Cousins and the Vikings, fresh off their first win of the season. If this is your local market game, you can watch it on NFL+ here.
Dallas Cowboys at San Francisco 49ers, 8:20 p.m.
Game of the year? It might be, with Dak Prescott leading the Cowboys and their swarming defense against the 49ers, who might be the best team in the NFL at this early stage of the season. Watch this prime time game on NFL+ here.
Monday, Oct. 9
Green Bay Packers at Las Vegas Raiders, 8:15 p.m.
Davante Adams faces his former team as the Raiders host the Packers, who are looking to rebound after a rough loss to the Lions. Watch this prime time game on NFL+ here.
