NFL Week 15 is upon us.
Thoughts from Week 14
1. Dallas, I knew they would lose. They need to rebound this week, because if they lose, and NY Wins, they could be in a dogfight for a 1st or potentially 5th seed. These games matter.
2. Patriots, killin it.
3. That Tampa Bay team is dangerous.
4. See also, Tennessee.
5. Chiefs, add them to the mix. The Bucs dispatched them and the Seahawks in consecutive weeks.
6. If the Packers continue this pace, they could be a team no one wants to face in the playoffs.
7. Jeff Fisher got a two year extension this year, and was fired this week. Not surprising considering they got the crap kicked out of them this week.
8. Cardinals proved that no matter how much talent, they will cut you.
9. Browns, so close. Keep it going. three more games. Three more games.
10. Falcons are barely keeping the Bucs at bay. They need to keep winning or else Tampa will win this division.

Thursday December 15th
(NBC) Rams (4-9) at Seahawks (8-4-1) - Seahawks are basically division champs. No one can/will catch them. Rams are terrible, and probably will get routed for the second week in a row. Seahawks 27, Rams 3
Saturday December 17th
(NFL) Dolphins (8-5) at Jets (4-9) - I for one would like to see the Dolphins finish with 10 wins. The Jets should just hope for a top 10 pick and find a decent non turnover prone QB in the draft. Dolphins 20, Jets 14
Sunday December 18th
(FOX) Packers (7-6) at Bears (3-10) - If the Packers want a chance, a slight sliver of a chance to make the playoffs, the team that pulverized the Seahawks last week, must show up and do the same against the Bears. Rodgers has to will this team with a 4-5 touchdown day. Packers 37, Bears 10
(CBS) Jaguars (2-11) at Texans (7-6) - The Texans, hold the slimmest of margins for the division. This is a must win game for them. They can beat a lowly Jaguars team, but it won't be easy. Texans 17, Jaguars 13
(CBS) Browns (0-13) at Bills (6-7) - If you don't know my stance on the Browns, well. 0-16 baby. Bills 34, Browns 6
(FOX) Eagles (5-8) at Ravens (7-6) - Their loss to the Patriots, as the Steelers are surging, couldn't have come at a worst time. Now the Ravens have to win out, in order to get into the playoffs. They will beat the Eagles, but they have to hope the Bengals beat the Steelers. Ravens 28, Eagles 13
(CBS) Titans (7-6) at Chiefs (10-3) - Honestly, I can see this being a letdown game for the Chiefs. They've had big wins, but lately teams like the Bucs have given them problems. Big problem, the Titans are very much built like the Bucs. So this could be a game where we see the Chiefs fall. I am going with the Titans. Titans 20, Chiefs 16
(FOX) Lions (9-4) at Giants (9-4) - One of the hottest teams (Lions) can take a big step toward being 2nd or perhaps 1st if Dallas keeps stumbling. The Giants can gain one step closer to a division title. I think the Lions win a close game. Lions 21, Giants 17
(CBS) Colts (6-7) at Vikings (7-6) - Neither team is really good. The Colts are mathematically eliminated IF the Texans win, and they lose. So either way, they have to play hard. Vikings will have a hard time making the playoffs. They need a lot of help down the stretch. Vikes win a close one. Vikings 17, Colts 13
(CBS) Steelers (8-5) at Bengals (5-7-1) - I think the Steelers will win. Mostly because the Bengals have self imploded and Marvin Lewis could and probably should be fired this year. They have underachieved every year and not really taking any strides toward being a super bowl contender. Steelers 34, Bengals 17
(FOX) Saints (5-8) at Cardinals (5-7-1) - The Cardinals are a disappointment and so are the Saints. Honestly this should be the highest scoring game of the week. Saints 37, Cardinals 34
(FOX) 49ers (1-12) at Falcons (8-5) - I honestly think the Falcons are going to do the same thing they did to the Rams, destroy the 49ers. Falcons 35, 49ers 10
(CBS) Patriots (11-2) at Broncos (8-5) - Broncos are in a must win situation. They have to win, but we all know the Hoodie won't let the Patriots lay down and lose. The Patriots will come out and score, but it's going to be a defensive game. Patriots 24, Broncos 16
(CBS) Raiders (10-3) at Chargers (5-8) - Won't be an easy win, but the Raiders should come out on top. Division games are tough and the Chargers won't turnover and let the Raiders win. should be an interesting game. Raiders 27, Chargers 20
(NBC) Buccaneers (8-5) at Cowboys (11-2) - In order to keep the division out of reach, the Cowboys have to win this game. In order to keep pace with the Falcons, the Bucs have to win. Either way, this is going to be one of those games where you should be on the edge of your seat. Both teams need to win, so look for some form of desperation from both. I think the Cowboys win. Cowboys 24, Bucs 14
Monday December 19th
(ESPN) Panthers (5-8) at Redskins (7-5-1) - Panthers, no playoffs. Redskins, outside chance right now. With the Bucs hanging on to a slim lead in the wildcard race right now, the Redskins have to win out or they will miss out. the Panthers defense is not great but they can play like a playoff caliber defense, problem is, which team shows up. I think the Redskins win a close game. Redskins 30, Panthers 27
Happy Week 15!
