NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
MIAMI DOLPHINS
The Saints and Dolphins clash this week in an NFC/AFC matchup. Miami is holding on to a small postseason chance, while New Orleans is all but eliminated. The Dolphins are favored at home.
LOS ANGELES RAMS
CAROLINA PANTHERS
The Rams and Panthers meet in an NFC clash this week. Los Angeles has been one of the hottest teams in football, earning them a double-digit spread on the road. Expect a defensive battle here.
CINCINNATI BENGALS
BALTIMORE RAVENS
Although the Bengals are 3-8 and three games behind the Ravens and Steelers in the AFC North, they still have a chance to win the division title. Several things need to happen for that to come to pass, but they can only control what they can control. That starts on Thanksgiving in Baltimore.
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS
DALLAS COWBOYS
Despite the Chiefs' sitting in 3rd place in the AFC West with a 6-5 record and their playoff hopes in question, they are still dangerous. This week, Travis Kelce announced that he would be upfront with the team about his retirement plans after the season to give them ample time to plan for next season.
GREEN BAY PACKERS
DETROIT LIONS
The Packers have won two straight after a two-game losing streak. In Week 12, they held the Vikings and their overmatched QB J.J. McCarthy to 6 points in a dominating defensive performance.
CAROLINA PANTHERS
SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS
After the Panthers beat the Falcons and the Buccaneers lost to the Bills, Carolina suddenly finds itself one-half game out of 1st place in the NFC South. This is a wondrous rise from where they were in Week 11 one year ago, when they were 3-7.
ATLANTA FALCONS
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
The Falcons and Saints meet in a divisional clash. With a combined record of 5-15, neither team has much of a shot to make the postseason. They will look for something to build on this week.
JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS
ARIZONA CARDINALS
The Jaguars and Cardinals meet in an interconference battle on Sunday. Jacksonville is heating up at the right time in a competitive division, while Arizona's losing streak continues each week.
TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS
LOS ANGELES RAMS
The Bucs' last two games were losses to the Patriots (28-23) and to the Bills (44-32). Their pass defense has been porous, ranked 27th in the league in yards allowed per game.
PITTSBURGH STEELERS
CHICAGO BEARS
One of the games on Sunday's NFL slate features the Chicago Bears hosting the Pittsburgh Steelers. Who has the edge in our Bears vs Steelers pick?
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
DALLAS COWBOYS
The Eagles wouldn't be the Eagles if there weren't some sort of off-field gossip, innuendo, and complaining. Sometimes it hurts them. Sometimes it doesn't.
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS
At 8-2, the Colts' playoff spot is secure, and their lead in the AFC South is reasonably safe. However, they are embarking on a very rough stretch for their final seven games, starting with a trip to KC.
