Well, I'll go first. Why not? I didn't get the Thursday night game wrong!

Giants - Bears How to pick this one? Whereas the Giants are simply bad, the Bears have shown flashes. Bears.

Jags - Patriots. Patriots are not gong to let the Jags hinder their playoff run. Patriots.

Rams - Ravens. The Rams are rolling along, winning even if Stafford throws 3 INTs. The Ravens have devolved into a mess, ravaged by COVID and injuries and Lamar Jackson's poor play. Rams.

Bucs - Jets. Bucs against the hapless Jets?! C'mon man! Bucs.

Falcons - Bills. The Bills seem to have righted themselves. Bills.

Chiefs - Bengals. The Chiefs are fighting for the top spot in the AFC. The Bengals came back to life and smashed the Ravens last week. I think the Tiger-Men will continue playing well. Bengals.

Dolphins - Titans. The Phish: 1 - 7 to 8 - 7. Quite a run! The Titans... somehow winning without Derrick Henry. One of these things has to end Sunday. Go with the hotter team. Dolphins.

Raiders - Colts. Every time I think the Raiders have succumbed to all their off the field issues this season, they rebound with a crazy win. But the Colts are a team of destiny the season. Colts.

Eagles - Washington. Eagles are another team making a playoff run. They throttled the G-Men last week and they'll throttle the WFT this week. Eagles.

Broncos - Chargers.. Chargers?! In the playoff hunt and lose to the Texans. The Texans?! And not just lose but get their butts kicked. Nevertheless.... Chargers.

Texans - Niners The aforementioned Texans will not win two in a row will they? No they will not. 49ers.

Lions - Seahawks. Here's another great matchup. But... Seahawks.

Cardinals - Cowboys. The Cards are reeling. The Cowboys scored 56 last week. While I don't think they'll score 56 again, they score enough to beat the Cards. Cowboys.

Panthers - Saints. Oh, if the Saints only had a quarterback. Of course one could say that about the Panthers too. And the Saints have scored a combined 12 points over their last two games. Hmmm... Give me a coin please. Saints.

Vikings - Packers.. This one is easy. Packers.

Browns - Steelers.. Well, just not ready to give up on the Browns and Baker. Denial? Maybe. Browns.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL AND ALL THE BEST FOR 2022!

Well now, not too bad, that should do it. It will be a better than 50/50 result to that list.

For me, this weekend is more of a College Playoff/Championship Weekend. Here are MY STAT-BASED RANKS and picks:

Cotton Bowl (CFP semifinal)
- #4 Alabama over #3 Cincinnati (may be a very close game)
Alabama 5 offense v. Cincinnati 3 defense (great matchup when ‘Bama has the ball)
Cincinnati 8 offense v. Alabama 20 defense

Orange Bowl (CFP semifinal)
- #1 Georgia over #6 Michigan
Georgia 6 offense v. Michigan 8 defense (great matchup when Georgia has the ball)
Michigan 13 off v. Georgia 1 defense

Predicted CFP Championship Game
- #1 Georgia over #4 Alabama (should be another good one)
Georgia 6 offense v. Alabama 20 defense
Alabama 5 offense v. Georgia 1 defense (great matchup when “Bama has the ball)

Fiesta Bowl
- #9 Notre Dame over #11 Oklahoma State

Rose Bowl
#2 Ohio State over #14 Utah (OSU should have been in the top four instead of Michigan and should crush Utah)

Sugar Bowl
#13 Baylor over #>50 Ole Miss

I was getting curious so I threw together a table with standings as best as I could figure. I know it's not very pretty, but hopefully it's better than nothing.

Let me know if corrections are needed.
