Three things to watch around the NFL in Week 5

With the Seahawks playing Thursday night and off on Sunday, here are three non-Seahawks things to watch around the NFL in Week 5.

MINSHEW MANIA OR ANOINTING ALLEN?

When the season began, a Week 5 meeting of Carolina and Jacksonville featuring quarterbacks with two of the top six passer ratings in the league made sense — Cam Newton and Nick Foles, right?

Wait, instead of Newton and Foles, it’s Kyle Allen (third) and former WSU star Garnder Minshew (sixth), who have replaced the injured Newton and Foles and injected life into previously struggling teams.Allen is 2-0 as Carolina’s starter and Minshew 2-1 with the Jags.
