Week 16:

Game of the Week: Bears @ Seahawks

                                Two teams that struggled last cycle have found life in the wide-open NFC. Both teams control their own playoff destiny and this game would go a long way towards cementing their status as "back".  Future comes in after a BIG win over the Vikings and Nole will be looking for his first win against a team with a winning record.  Both teams are allowing quite a few yards on defense, so look for this to be a high scoring game.      Bears 49 Seahawks 42

Upset of the Week: Rams @ Vikings

                                The Rams come into this one with a 4-10 record and face an angry Vikings team that was just blown out by the Bears.  Colt has actually played much better than his 4-10 record would suggest.  If games were only two quarters, he might actually have a playoff shot.  Unfortunately we play the entire game in the SML and Colt doesn't really care to do that usually.  This week I think he has a shot to take down a former Super Bowl participant.  Dmues is struggling and sticking with K.Mond at QB.  I think Colt gets up early and avoids the collapse this week.  Rams 27 Vikings 24

Blowout of the Week: Chargers @ Texans

                                    It was a toss up between this game and the Raiders/Broncos.  With ZZ having just choked against the CPU and Dan fighting for his playoff life, I think Dan comes out firing on all cylinders.  He knows he has to win out to make the playoffs and he won't want this to be close.  Initially, I thought ZZ might have something going this season after taking me to OT, but it turns out I'm just pretty bad.  Dan may score 100 if not for those pesky rules.  Chargers 52 Texans 10

Lock of the Week: Giants @ Eagles

                              Don't let the records fool you, the Giants are not the underdog in this one.  In fact, the Giants may be the best team in the NFC East.  Tiny has already been in chat talking about the Giants and Daniel Jones, but I doubt he has much of a plan to stop him.  So far this cycle, Tiny's only plan to stop opposing offenses is to let their defense do all the scoring.  It's a solid plan to stop offenses, just not very effective when it comes to winning games.  Lock it in, Giants win this one.  Giants 34 Eagles 17
