Picks:

Indianapolis at Baltimore: Baltimore is just a little better than mediocre. That's good enough to beat a bad Colts team. Ravens Win
Minnesota at Green Bay: Vikings, trying hard to get back into #1 seed, have to win out. Packers are eliminated and Rodgers likely to sit. Only hope for the pack is Minny pulls starters. But I suspect not. Vikings win
Atlanta at New Orleans: Game of the week! Atlanta needs this win badly. They are at home. They have lots of firepower. Saints have Drew Brees. This is going to be a good one. Saints are favored but I'm going to go out on a limb and say ... Falcons Win
Buffalo at New England: If Buffalo plays good defense and runs the ball effectively they have a good chance to get a game winning touchdown overturned by the NFL, as it has done several times this year to Patriot opponents. Patriots win
Cleveland at Chicago: Browns are 1-29 since passing on Carson Wentz. Their coach said if he went 1-15 this year he'd jump in the lake. He'll save himself from that indignity by going 0-16. Bears win
Denver at Washington: Neither team has anything to play for, edge to the home team with the better record. Redskins win
Detroit at Cincinnati: Bengals team and coach have quit on the year, it seems. Detroit desperately needs victory to keep any hope of playoffs alive. They'll get one. Lions win
L.A. Chargers at N.Y. Jets: Chargers get no press, nobody talks about them. But quietly they are among the hottest teams in football, crawling back into playoff contention after a dismal 0-4 start. They Jets ... aren't. Chargers Win
L.A. Rams at Tennessee: Rams are dismantling teams, the Eagles beat them by keeping up point for point, Tennessee can't do that. Rams win
Miami at Kansas City: KC is playing for the division at home. Dolphins beat the Patriots, that's all you can say. KC is flawed but I'll take them at home against weak Phish team. Chefs win
Jacksonville at San Francisco: Jimmy G is 3-0 as a starter and looks pretty good. Jacksonville D is legit though and will be a strong test. 49ers just don't have the weapons. Jaguars win
Tampa Bay at Carolina: Tampa's expected big offense never showed up and their season is over. Carolina is fighting for playoffs, and at home. Panthers win
N.Y. Giants at Arizona: Neither of these teams have anything to play for. Advantage home team just because they don't have to travel. Cardinals win
Seattle at Dallas: Dallas is desperate but so is Seattle. Both teams are heavily flawed but Dallas gets Zeke back I think. They get a bounce. Cowboys win
Pittsburgh at Houston: Pittsburgh was the third team this year to have the NFL come in and save the Patriots with a reversed TD in the end zone, they have to be mad. Houston won't hold up. Steelers win
Oakland at Philadelphia: Eagles can lock up home field throughout the playoffs and Oakland can lock up a complimentary upgrade to first class for their flight home if they use miles now. Other than that, they have nothing to play for. In their first home game in a month the Eagles play better. Eagles Win

Imp's Pickz, Looks like I'm of a mind with Enterprise, and Vegas

Ravens

Demoralized Pack has little to play for, Vikes

Good game #1, Saints for the season series split

Pats

Here we go, I've long had a feeling the Bears would lose to the Browns, but also that they'd sweep the AFC, clearly one of those feelings has to be indigestion. Hell with it, Bears win when I pick them for once

PU, well, Denver QB up in the air, I'll take the Deadksins

Lions

Chargers

Rams

Chiefs

SF winning streak runs into it's first good team, and ends, Jags

Olde Chi Cardinals o'er the Pygmies

Good game #2, Dallas keeps hope alive

Stoolers

Oakland is still technically alive, they need a TON of help, but no matter cause they'll fail to help themselves, Eagles
