Still something to play for on last weekend
NFL teams in the AFC will be sorting out who finishes where for playoff seeds while there are spots up fro grabs in the NFC so it should lead to a good Sunday of football. Throw in a few NCAA bowl games and it will be a full day for sure!
Ok, let's sort through it with this week's picks...
As for last week's record....worst of my picking career 4-12 for Week 16 so need to bounce back this week as I'm sitting at 145-94 on the season, trying to avoid a 100 loss tipping record for the regular season!
Baltimore @ Cincinnati
Divisional pride on the line, nothing else!
Ravens 30-20
Houston @ Tennessee
Titans looking forward to next season, Texans tuning up for playoffs.
Texans 20-13
Carolina @ Tampa Bay
The Bucs simply need to win and let the rest sort itself out.
Bucs 27-23
Jacksonville @ Indianapolis
Colts 31-21
New England @ Miami
Pats will be playing for First Round bye, Dolphins will be looking to build for playoffs...a mild surprise as New England may not risk some players and get healthy.
Dolphins 23-21
Chicago @ Minnesota
Vikings 34-23
Buffalo @ NY Jets
Bills 35-27
Dallas @ Philadelphia
The Eagles would love to finish on a high not and Dallas may rest a few.
Eagles 28-27

Kansas City @ San Diego
Chiefs could improve their seed with a win

Seattle @ San Francisco

Seahawks 27-23

These two will know what they need to do before game time, especially in the event of a Washington loss but they Packers may still need to win or else depending on the Bucs. Going with the home team.
Lions 31-28

NCAA Bowls
Outback Bowl
Florida vs Iowa
The Gators should close out the season with an in state win.

This one oozes tradition and class of the past. Penn State feels they should have been in the playoffs instead of Ohio State...hmm....discussion for next year and off season.
