Last week, I had my worst week of the season, going 4-7-2.
Thursday Night
The Rams have been inconsistent all season.
They also have not fared well in primetime.
The Chiefs have had a string of near misses all season.
The Dolphins have a faint chance to make the playoffs.
However, its a longshot at best.
The Jets playoff hopes officially ended as they let another game they should have won slip away in Miami.
Derek Carr is out again after fracturing his hand while attempting a leap against the Giants.
The last time Carr was sidelined, the Saints were an abject disaster.
Look for that to happen again, as Washington wins the game easily.
The Giants have not been a two-touchdown underdog at home in 60 years.
The spread shows the hopeless state the Giants are in.
The Bengals' hopes remain alive as they benefited from the Cowboys screwing up a punt block.
They now face a struggling Titans team that they should be able to dominate.
The Patriots are eliminated but have played well in recent weeks.
This looks like another close game, with the Patriots falling short as the Cardinals keep their hopes alive.
The Broncos and Colts each have a shot at the last playoff spot in the AFC.
This game will be a significant deciding factor.
Last week, the Bills lost a shootout in Los Angeles.
Expect another shootout this week, as the Lions' defense has been lethal all season.
In addition, the Lions' defense is banged up and vulnerable.
This time, the Bills will win.
The Buccaneers are starting to find a groove as they have risen to the top of the NFC South.
Expect the Bucs to win and continue their late-season surge.
The battle of Pennsylvania sees two first-place teams coming in playing solid football.
The Eagles are home but have not always had their best games at home.
The Seahawks are not a top team.
Monday Night
As the season goes on, the Bears seem to be playing worse.
A new coach did nothing to reverse that trend last week.
This one will be ugly.
