NFL Week 5 best bets: Why we like Eagles and Lions on Sunday
Need help making your picks ahead of Sunday? Lorenzo Reyes shares his best bets for Week 5 games.
Americans protested the British in the infamous Boston Tea Party on Dec. 16, 1773 to fight taxation without representation. Nearly 252 full years later, it’s the Americans that are now exporting a major part of their culture to the shores of England.
The NFL heads abroad for the second time in the 2025 season, making its first stop in London as the Cleveland Browns and Minnesota Vikings clash at Tottenham Hostpur Stadium.
It comes on the heels of the first-ever Dublin game, which saw the Vikings fall to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Kevin O’Connell’s team has continued their European explortation with a stop in London – marking two consecutive weeks of international competition. Ravaged by injuries, it’s an added test against a stout Cleveland defense.
On the opposite sideline, all eyes are on Dillon Gabriel. The former Oregon star was named the Browns starter ahead of this contest, making his NFL debut on foreign soil.
Both teams are searching for a win after disappointing Week 4 efforts. Will the Browns bite match their bark or is it the Vikings that steal a win in Europe before heading back to the states?
There’s only one way to find out. Here’s how you can tune into the early-morning kickoff in London and watch the action unfold between the Browns and Vikings.
