NY Jets @ Buffalo: Jets New Orleans @ Carolina: New Orleans Cleveland @ Cincinnati: Cincinnati Green Bay @ Detroit: Green Bay Indianapolis @ Jacksonville: Indianapolis LA Chargers @ Kansas City: KC Chicago @ Minnesota: Minnesota Miami @ New England: New England Pittsburgh @ Baltimore: Pittsburgh Washington @ Dallas: Dallas Oakland @ Denver: Denver Tennessee @ Houston: Houston Arizona @ LA Rams: Rams Philadelphia @ NY Giants: Giants Atanta @ Tampa Bay: Atlanta San Francisco @ Seattle: Seattle Jets probably get roasted. Hoping for an upset! New Orleans won't sleep in against Carolina. I will take the Bungles for shits and giggles because they are playing Cleveland. Green Bay has too much to gain and will hammer Detroit. Jaguars are a dumpster fire. Indy whoops them. KC can't afford to sleep in, so they beat up the Chargers. Minnesota gets their act together and shoots down Chicago. New England will definitely NOT sleep in against Miami! Baltimore knocks their arch rivals out for good.
Dallas clobbers the Redskins. Denver wins by virtue of playing in Mile High sucks! Houston plays a close game against the Titans but they gut it out. Rams shoot up the Cards when it doesn't matter anymore! Giants troll the Eagles. Atlanta beat Tampa in a shootout and then Seattle rallies behind the morale boost of the return of Beast Mode and they make up for that choke job against Arizona.

Here are my picks for Week 17’s games
Jets over Bills - Jets are playing well and the Bills have nothing to play for as they are locked into the #5 seed so they may rest players.
Saints over Panthers - Saints are far better and the Panthers are playing horrible football.
Browns over Bengals - Browns are a much better team.
Packers over Lions - Packers are a much better team.
Colts over Jaguars - Colts are slightly better and are playing better.
Chiefs over Chargers - Chiefs are a much better team.
Vikings over Bears - Vikings are better.
Patriots over Dolphins - Pats are much better.
Steelers over Ravens - Ravens will be resting Jackson and other starters so I’ll take the Steelers who will be more motivated.
Cowboys over Redskins - Cowboys are better.
Broncos over Raiders - Broncos are at home and are playing better right now.
Titans over Texans - Titans will be more motivated and will get the win.
Rams over Cardinals - Rams are better.
Eagles over Giants - Eagles will be motivated and are a better team.
Falcons over Buccaneers - Falcons are playing very well.
Seahawks over 49ers - Seahawks are at home and I think Wilson has a big game and the Seahawks get the win.

I am warning you SDM3. If you continue with this tourney for one more season you will have to face me the next time. I still remember you beat me in last years EPL for the champions league spot. I will return the favour here.

Changing my pick to Pittsburgh because Baltimore has nothing to play for and will reserve their best guys for the playoffs.

Sunday December 29th 1:00pm EST NY Jets @ Buffalo - Bills have nothing to play for so word is they may rest starters. They still might win though.
New Orleans @ Carolina - Saints still fighting for Playoff seeding.
Cleveland @ Cincinnati - Would be funny if Cincy won this now that they have the #1 pick locked up. Green Bay @ Detroit - Detroit is trash right now with a back up QB while GB is fighting for the 1st seed in the NFC. I think GB REALLY wants that as they play so much better at home.
Indianapolis @ Jacksonville - Better coach and better team but honestly this could be a toss up.
LA Chargers @ Kansas City - Better team and at home.
Chicago @ Minnesota - After the Rams lost the Vikings have nothing to play for as their 6th seed is locked in.
Miami @ New England - Patriots don't have anything to play for but I think they want the taste of losing to the Dolphins in their mouths. Maybe starters play the first half but that should be enough.
4:25pm Pittsburgh @ Baltimore - Ravens are sitting starters while the Steelers are fighting for the Playoffs.
Washington @ Dallas - I want to see this happen for a reason down below.
Oakland @ Denver - Denver pulls this one out to end their season on a high note.
Tennessee @ Houston - Tittens fight for that playoff spot.
Arizona @ LA Rams - Why not?
Philadelphia @ NY Giants - People *Cough* Stephen A Smith *Cough* seem to be awarding the Eagles to NFC East division after this past week. I want to laugh at him eat fat crow as the Giants beat the Eagles and give the Cowboys the division. I think that's how it plays out anyway. If Eagles win or Cowboys lose they're in but if Cowboys win and Eagles lose than the Cowboys are in.
Atanta @ Tampa Bay - Winston becomes the first 30/30 in NFL history while he also becomes like the 4th QB to ever reach 5,200+ yards passing in a season. He's an enigma. Falcons win though.
8:20pm San Francisco @ Seattle - Seahawks bounce back at home and this gives the Packers the 1 Seed in the Playoffs and makes them a very dangerous threat to be in the Super Bowl.

NY Jets @ Buffalo - I think the BILLS will want to head into the postseason with momentum.
New Orleans @ Carolina - Panthers are just terrible right now, while the SAINTS are fighting for favorable seeding.
Cleveland @ Cincinnati - Losing to the BENGALS would be the perfect way to finish the shit sandwich that was this season for the Browns.
Green Bay @ Detroit - Picking against the Lions has been a guaranteed source of wins in the second half of this season. PACKERS.
Indianapolis @ Jacksonville - Could go either way but I'll pick the COLTS, who are just a better team and aren't in disarray.
LA Chargers @ Kansas City - CHIEFS are another team who need to ride some momentum into the playoffs.
Chicago @ Minnesota - Hard to pick against the VIKINGS at home, even if they end up resting starters.
Miami @ New England - Although the PATRIOTS usually drop a game or two to their division rivals, it's not happening here. Not against this Dolphins team at home.
Pittsburgh @ Baltimore - STEELERS are desperate and their defense should be enough to get past Baltimore's second stringers. However, it won't matter, because... see below.
Washington @ Dallas - With their season on the line, the COWBOYS get a big win at home.
Oakland @ Denver - BRONCOS have looked more competent as the season has gone on.
Tennessee @ Houston - The TITANS get a wild card spot by beating a Texans team that already has one eye on the postseason. Sorry Steelers; you should've beaten the Jets.
Arizona @ LA Rams - RAMS will want to end the season on a high note.
Philadelphia @ NY Giants - GIANTS troll the Eagles with a huge win, allowing the Cowboys into the playoffs while the Eagles Fly... home. One of those classic NFC East moments.
Atanta @ Tampa Bay - Tampa's season ends as it's gone all year; with a Jameis pick six. FALCONS continue their (too late) winning ways.
San Francisco @ Seattle - People underestimate just how huge the loss of Chris Carson is for the Seahawks. Marshawn Lynch is a nice story, but it won't be enough to make the difference against a determined 49ERS squad fighting for a bye.
