Oh this is gonna be an interesting week for sure.
Looking down the list of games and there aren’t too many, no-brainers! Once we get past the first few lines, you could make an argument for each remaining game to be placed on each remaining line. This is where we have to have a big week.
No point in delaying the inevitable any longer, let’s get going!
Week 9 – HERE WE GO!!!!
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)
14 – LOS ANGELES RAMS over New Orleans – Derek Carr isn’t walking through that door … … … but I mean, even if he did, what would change?
13 – GREEN BAY over Carolina – The Panthers are pretty pointless outside of Charlotte. Not good when you play a sport where points are pretty important.
12 – NEW ENGLAND over Atlanta – If you get destroyed at home by the Dolphins, you don’t get to win the next week – new league rule.
11 – DETROIT over Minnesota – A JJ McCarthy led Vikings team still has a lot to show me.
10 – Baltimore over MIAMI – I don’t think any team has missed one player more than the Ravens missed Lamar Jackson.
9 – Los Angeles Chargers over TENNESSEE –It's going to take a few drafts to get Cam Ward the help that he needs.
8 – San Francisco over NEW YORK GIANTS – Man I had hopes for this Giants team. BUT, next year once all the injuries have healed, my BOLD PREDICTION for this week is the THE GIANTS WILL WIN THE NFC EAST NEXT SEASON.
7 – BUFFALO over Kansas City – Beating the Chiefs pre-January has been done and should be expected by the Bills at this point. It’s January that they need to figure out.
6 – PITTSBURGH over Indianapolis – This is just a hunch that the Colts run HAS to come to an end soon…right?
5 – HOUSTON over Denver – I still find it hard to believe that the Texans are a sub .500 team.
4 – DALLAS over Arizona – This game will happen … so there you go
3 – CINCINNATI over Chicago – The Bears offense won’t be able to keep up with the Bengals.
2 – WASHINGTON over Seattle – This is going to be a fun game between teams who weren’t supposed to give us a fun game this year.
1 – Jacksonville over LAS VEGAS – As a Raiders fan, I know that this is a game that “they should win” … so they won’t.
Normally, being just a few weeks away from the last week of the season, playoff positions are solidified and we need to take into account that teams may be benching star players.
Not this year though! Only two teams have clinched a playoff spot at this point and it seems that every playoff seed is still up for grabs and this is just another week!
Week 16 – HERE WE GO!!!!
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)
16 – HOUSTON over Las Vegas – I’ll be honest, I’m starting to think the Raiders won’t be making the playoffs this year.
15 – Buffalo over CLEVELAND – Shedeur Sanders won’t be able to put up enough points to keep up with the Bills.
14 – ARIZONA over Atlanta – Tells you how close this week is going to be when the Cardinals are this high.
13 – DENVER over Jacksonville – Who knew at the beginning of the year that this could be our AFC Championship matchup??
12 – Philadelphia over WASHINGTON – Nothing like a game against the Raiders to get the Eagles back on track.
11 – CHICAGO over Green Bay – A little worried about Odunze and Burden being out … but … DAAAAAAAAAA BEARS.
10 – NEW ORLEANS over New York Jets – If I were the Saints, I would give Tyler Shough a full season as QB1 next season.
9 – CAROLINA over Tampa Bay – The Bucs just seem like they want to give the division away.
8 – BALTIMORE over New England – This is a horrible time to collapse if you’re the Pats
7 – San Francisco over INDIANAPOLIS – No truth to the rumors that, following Phillip Rivers lead, Steve Young will come out of retirement…yet
6 – Cincinnati over MIAMI – Not the season the Dolphins were expecting. My BOLD PREDICTION for this week is that WE WILL SEE A NEW QUARTERBACK, COACH AND GM IN MIAMI NEXT SEASON.
5 – SEATTLE over Los Angeles Rams – Most meaningful game of the year so far to say the least.
4 – DETROIT over Pittsburgh – I feel like this game shouldn’t be this low, but that’s the level of confidence the Lions have given us this year
3 – DALLAS over Los Angeles Chargers – It’s really weird to think that the Cowboys have an outside chance to make the playoffs let alone win the division this year.
2 – TENNESSEE over Kansas City – Let’s all take a moment to appreciate that this year, the playoffs will not include random shots of a family skybox alllllll game!
1 – NEW YORK GIANTS over Minnesota – If we think New York will win, yada yada yada
Please wait...
