I had my struggles in Week 16, posting a record of 7-8-1.

Overall, I am 129-104-7 on the season.

Saturday

With a win, the Chargers can lock up a playoff spot.

A loss keeps the Patriots in the hunt for the top pick in the draft.

Joe Burrow has put up big numbers all season.

Now the big stats are paying off, as the Bengals have won their last three games.

The Rams are closing in on a division title, which is remarkable after the start of 1-4.

The Cardinals are going in the opposite direction; earlier in the season, they beat the Rams 41-10.

I’m not saying the Cardinals will win, but this game will be close.

Sunday at 1

The Bills escaped with a win last week despite a terrible performance against the Patriots.

Expect a much sharper performance as the Jets are counting the days down for the season to end.

Those on Santa’s naughty list are getting tickets to watch this game instead of coal this season.

Spencer Rattler could be one of the worst quarterbacks I have ever seen.

The Raiders have some pride left, but all the Saints' pride is on injured reserve.

The Giants have only had two leads at home all season.

They have a franchise-worst ten-game losing streak and the look of a team that has checked out.

The Colts have faint playoff hopes and will come in and put this one away early.

The Cowboys' playoff hopes are over, but they have won four of their last five games.

When these two teams played earlier this month, the Buccaneers needed overtime for the win.

The Buccaneers are coming off a bad loss in Dallas, and the Panthers are showing signs of improvement.

Sunday Late Games

The early forecast calls for mild weather in the 50s in Cleveland.

That is good news for the Dolphins who have slight hopes of making the playoffs.

The Browns are on a third-string quarterback and in the midst of a lost season.

This game was flexed out of primetime, and the Dolphins will get to .500 heading into Week 18.

Their defense has been the key as Andrew Van Ginkel has made big plays all season.

Daniels and the Commanders will assure a playoff spot and the individual honors by winning this game.

The Lions have their own injury issues, but are built for games like this.
