Chargers @ Chiefs 8:25 Saturday

Huge matchup with AFC West marbles on the line. Chargers are fire hot with Rivers making an MVP candidate run and the dominating d line doing more than their share. Chiefs have to hold court at Arrowhead (is it still called that?) Chiefs -1.0

Rams @ Seattle....nearly a must win for Seattle to make the playoffs but winning this game gives them the upper hand on the division and hosting a playoff game. Seahawks -1.0

Patriots @ Steelers....looks like winner gets the #1 seed and are home thru the playoffs. Brady loves to flex his muscles in these games and IMO, if Wentz is done then Brady and AB are the MVP front runners. Patriots -3.0

If Chiefs win I feel they are on way back to being formidable playoff opponent...if Chargers win, like I’ve said before...I don’t want to see them in the playoffs. Chiefs 27 Chargers 23

Seattle pretty banged up but assume Russell Wilson will put the offense in his back and surge back into the MVP race. Seattle 30 Rams 20

Patriots should pick apart the middle of field like Flacco did (difference being Brady could do it with Shazier out there) Pats 31 Steelers 20

If 2017 Joe Flacco can lead Baltimore to 38 against the Steelers, Brady has the potential to throw for 700 and lead NE to about 84 points.

That might be tough to overcome.

Big win by the Steelers last week but that defense is just atrocious.    

NE looked horrid last night so that means TB12 will light it up next week.   When great teams get embarrassed they come out on fire that next week

Chiefs, Seahawks because they're at home and the pats win th2 big 3 games.

Yeah, I might be changing my pick to the Pats in this game. Can't see them losing twice in a row.

If someone didn't know anything about TB12 and the pats and watched snf and mnf then ya pick pitt but it's hard to believe they won't come out looking like a total diff team.

 

Steelers need to get Bryant out of the KO return.   They guys runs like an absolute heartless pussy and

I’ll be pretty happy and surprised if the Rams can go into Seattle and come out with a win.

The Rams stealing a win from the Hawks would be a big boost to the Jets as they get their 2nd round pick from the Sheldon Richardson trade. I really hope they fail to make the playoffs.

Me too since Seattle might be the biggest bandwagon fan base around.

Let me add Cowboys @ Raiders....both are pretty much must win games. Loser maybe not mathematically eliminated but ...it ain’t happening.

I’ll root for the Raiders to keep things exciting in the West

Not prime games IMO but pretty much must wins for these teams or they go from low chance to virtually no chance for the playoffs

Dolphins @ Bills....Dolphins have to win...and then they meet again in week 17.

Lions @ Bears....Lions have to win

Packers @ Panthers...must win for Packers

Dolphins seem every year to be 7-8 or 8-7 going into final week and seem to sneak in as worst playoff team in football...it could happen again. Ravens schedule easy...but Titans at 8-5 don’t have an easy schedule and Mariota banged up

Lions need to win out but have a prayer at 9-7

Packers ....can you ever count out Rodgers from backing in or running the table and then being a team to reckon with?

Every year? Haven’t the Dolphins made the playoffs about one time in the last ten years? Maybe this happened in the 90s. They do always seem to be hovering around .500, though.

They just always seem to suck but somehow still make it to the end of the WC standings and just never seem even close to being a playoff team.

Chiefs with huge win and look to be back on track...basically win vs Dolphins or Broncos and they are in.

Chargers backs against the wall completely

I had this game marked as a loss and would be fine with a loss. AB out? That didn’t look great. If he’s done...the Steelers are done.

I would take losses the last 3 weeks over losing AB. Damnit

Rams absolutely crushing the Seahawks. Just flat out dominating.

3rd and 20 for LA and Gurley goes 57 to the house to put them up 34-0 going into halftime.
