Upset Special: Cincinnati at Kansas City
Lock of the Week: Carolina at Atlanta
Denver at San Diego
What a game this could have been had the Chargers and Bengals won last week. Too bad it won't mean anything now. Since there is nothing on the line the Chargers will win. Chargers 27 - Broncos 13.
NY Giants at Oakland
The Giants need this win in order to win the NFC East. The Raiders have lost their offense and the help desk cannot help them. The only issue is Eli Manning on the road. I think the Giants will do enough to win this game. Giants 24 - Raiders 10.
Arizona at Indianapolis
I would have made the Cardinals my upset special, but the Colts have to win this game for momentum sake. I'm a big believer that momentum plays a key part in winning in the post season, so I would expect to the Colts to keep their starts in until they are firmly ahead. Colts 32 - Cardinals 24.
Baltimore at Cleveland
The Ravens have found their offense thanks to a comeback Kyle Boller, while the Browns are still trying to find themselves. The Ravens will have this one won by halftime. Ravens 27 - Browns 13.
Buffalo at N.Y. Jets
The Bills beat Cincinnati last week, which spells trouble for the J E T S Jets. Herm Edwards is supposedly coming back next year, but if I were him I'd leave. Bills 33 - Jets 17.
Carolina at Atlanta
Oh, good game. This is my lock of the week as the Falcons will beat the Panthers. The Panthers are something like 1-9 in the last 10 games in Atlanta, and you know Michael Vick will be all over this game. Falcons 32 - Panthers 24.
Cincinnati at Kansas City
Kansas City still has a prayer left for the playoffs. Cincinnati screwed the pooch last week with the egg they laid against the Bills. No one wins at Arrowhead in December, right? That trends continues. Chiefs 37 - Bengals 31.
Detroit at Pittsburgh
You're kidding, right? Steelers 35 - Lions 6.
Miami at New England
This could be the week that Tom Brady is injured and knocked out of the starting line up. Ok, a boy can wish. The Patriots could beat the Dolphins with five starters out, which is what is going to happen. Patriots 24 - Dolphins 17.
New Orleans at Tampa Bay
Buccaneers win and they're in. Saints lose and nothing changes. Give the ball to Cadillac early and often. Buccaneers 17 - Saints 13.
Seattle at Green Bay
Mike Holmgren returns to the city he loved that kicked him to the curb. Seahawks will be resting most of their players, which is a good thing. Even with their players rested they could beat Green Bay High School's varsity team, I mean the Packers. Seahawks 29 - Packers 14.
Houston at San Francisco
Reggie Bush sweepstakes. No way the Texans win this and ruin their chances. 49ers 24 - Texans 17.
Tennessee at Jacksonville
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ. Wake me when Byron Leftwich is back. Jaguars 17 - Titans 13.
Chicago at Minnesota
Could have been a great match up. Turns out the Vikings suck, so the Bears will rest many of their players in Mike Tice's last game as coach of the Vikings. Bears 15 - Vikings 10.
Washington at Philadelphia
Redskins need to win to get in. The Eagles just need to show up and complete the season of TO. Redskins 34 - Eagles 17.
St. Louis at Dallas
The last game of the regular season, and it sucks. The Rams lost their way when Martz left and the Cowboys are proving that you can come up short. Cowboys 24 - Rams 10.
