NFC South Week 5 Review: Division foes prevail while the Falcons recover
"The best quarterback battle of the week did not disappoint. Baker Mayfield is leading the early-season MVP race after coming up big in the clutch for the fourth time this season. Rookie Emeka Egbuka is one of the top-performing WRs in this league. This team continues to find ways to win, and they aren't letting injuries slow them down. The South runs through Tampa Bay, and this week the team will try to assert its NFC dominance over the 49ers."
"The Saints secured their first win of the season and looked competent in the process. Spencer Rattler has performed well this season, and the Tyler Shough pick is looking like a waste. This team doesn't appear to be headed for a turnaround, but they won't be pushovers this season. They are prime candidates to play spoiler as the season progresses. Next week, they'll take on a Patriots team coming off a massive win against the Buffalo Bills."
"Carolina is still under .500, but avoided a catastrophic 1-4 start to keep their season alive. The Panthers crawled out of a 17-point hole thanks in part to one of the worst halves of coaching we've ever seen from the Dolphins. Carolina is 0-3 on the road, but undefeated at home. The cats are a volatile team, and you never know which version of them will show up. The team has a chance to silence doubters and get to .500 against the Cowboys in Week 6."
Tampa Bay beat Seattle 38-35 as Baker Mayfield continues clutch performances and rookie Emeka Egbuka emerges among top wide receivers. The Buccaneers keep winning despite injuries and will face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6 with momentum. New Orleans earned its first win, beating the Giants 26-14, with Spencer Rattler playing well while Tyler Shough’s pick appears questionable; the Saints can act as spoilers and will face New England next. Carolina rallied past Miami 27-24 to avoid a 1-4 start, showing volatility and home strength before a Week 6 trip to Dallas. Atlanta used the bye to activate Ta'Quon Graham and expects A.J. Terrell back before facing Buffalo.
