Record Last week 11-5
Philadelphia (4-7) at Seattle (4-7) Thursday
Night
The Eagles and the Seattle are not officially eliminated
from the playoffs as of yet, but the team that lose will require a major miracle
to make the playoffs. Vince Young will
start again for the Eagles at quarterback.
Tarvaris Jackson will continue to head up the Seahawks. The Eagles will win 27-10.
Tennessee (6-5) at Buffalo (5-6)
The Titans are in a must win situation if they are to win
the AFC South. The Titans are two games
out of first place and played well in the defeat of the Buccaneers last week. The Bills are depleted by injuries and
suffered a tough defeat last week against the Jets. Tennessee will win 28-24.
Kansas City (4-7) at Chicago (7-4)
Both teams come into this game with backup quarterbacks. The Chiefs will go with Kyle Orton who was
with the Broncos just a couple of weeks ago.
The Bears will have Caleb Hanie under center for the Bears. The Bears currently hold a wildcard spot for
the playoffs. The Bears will win 21-10.
Baltimore (8-3) at Cleveland (4-7)
This is the type of game that the Ravens forget to show
up for. The Ravens are tied for first
place with the Steelers and do not want to go on the road again in the
playoffs. The Browns got the return of
Peyton Hillis last week. Colt McCoy will
beat you if given a chance. The
Ravens will win 28-21.
Atlanta (7-4) at Houston (8-3)
Three weeks ago this game looked like a possible game of
the year. In two weeks the Texans lost
their starting and backup quarterbacks for the season. The Texans will rely on their defense and a
rookie quarterback TJ Watts to lead. The
Falcons are peaking at the right time. The
Falcons will win 17-14.
Oakland (7-4) at Miami (3-8)
Miami reverted back to their back habits in the game last
week in scoring field goals instead of touchdowns. The Raiders have adjusted to QB Carson Palmer
and have their sights set squarely on the playoffs. Reggie Bush has been having a good year despite his team losses. Oakland will win 28-21.
Cincinnati (7-4) at Pittsburgh (8-3)
This is the second meeting of the year for these
teams. The Bengals have dropped two in a
row and are losing their confidence. The
Steelers have been beat up all year with injuries and Troy Palamolu will play
this week, but will be monitored closely.
The Steelers will win this game 24-17.
Carolina (3-8) at Tampa Bay (4-7)
Tampa Bay has been their own worst enemy this season, untimely
turnovers and just making too many mental mistakes has cost the Bucs too many
games. Carolina was not expected to win
many games this year, but they have been very productive, but their defense
lacks talent. The Bucs will win 28-27.
New York Jets (6-6) at Washington (4-7)
The Skins started the year hot and upset the Seahawks
last week. The Jets have been very disappointing
all season long. It will take a minimum of
9 wins to make the playoffs this year the loser of this game will most likely
be eliminated from playoff contention. The
Jets will win 28-14.
Denver (6-5) at Minnesota (2-9)
Tim Tebow is 5-1 as starter, but the Broncos have been
winning with defense. Christian Ponder
has been impressive for the Vikings. The
Broncos are still trying to get a playoff spot even though they have been
winning ugly. Without Adrian Peterson
the Vikings will struggle. Broncos
will win 17-10.
Dallas (7-4) at Arizona (4-7)
The Cowboys have not handled success well this season, with
the Giants playing the very hot Packers the Cowboys can open up a two game lead
in the division. Tony Romo has been playing
well with his balanced attack. The
Cardinals have been productive with John Skelton at QB. Dallas will win 28-21.
Green Bay (11-0) at New York Giants (6-5)
The Packers are taking this season one game at a time and
have been improving on defense. The
Giants are not in a must win game, but they are not getting better as the
season has progressed. Green Bay is
trying to stay perfect for nine more games.
The Packers will win 28-24.
St Louis (2-9) at San Francisco (9-2)
The Niners have had nine days to heal from their wounds
on Thanksgiving. The Rams are in disarray.
Sam Bradford has Brandon Marshall and Stephen Jackson, but nothing on defense
to stop the San Fran. Expect San Fran to
take all of their frustration out on the Rams.
The Niners will win 38-14.
Indianapolis (0-11) at New England (8-3)
Curtis Painter has been replaced at QB by Dan Orlovsky in
his seventh year out of the University of Connecticut. Expect the Patriots defense to blitz and
confuse the replacement QB all day long.
Do not expect the Colts to get their first win on today. New England will win 34-10.
Detroit (7-4) at New Orleans (8-4) Sunday
Night
Suh appealed his two-game suspension, but even if the
Lion had Suh the Saints are on a roll.
The Saints had one bad game all season.
The Lions are trying to keep pace with the Beas for a playoff spot. The Lions have to overcome the loss of their defensive
leader and contain the Saints. Saints
roll 28-20.
San Diego (4-7) at Jacksonville (3-8) Monday
Night
Jacksonville fired Head Coach Jack Del Rio this week and
will be led by Mel Tucker. There have
been too many distractions in Jacksonville for the team this week. Phillip
Rivers is looking get the Charges back in sync, if not Norv Turner may not be
back next year. The Chargers will win 28-14.
