Friday NFL: Chargers (11-3) at Titans (7-7)
If you believe in motivation, then Tennessee should be San Diego on Friday night. The Titans simply must win to keep their very slim playoff hopes alive. San Diego, however, has yet to officially lock down the No. 2 seed in the AFC, so it’s not lik...
Arizona Cardinals (8-4) at San Francisco 49ers (5-7)
The Arizona Cardinals haven’t won back-to-back division titles as a franchise since the mid 1970s, but that can be accomplished on Monday night with a win over San Francisco. However, the 49ers seem to always play Arizona better than any other ...
Philadelphia Eagles (8-4) at New York Giants (7-5)
The Eagles didn’t miss running back Brian Westbrook or receiver DeSean Jackson much in last week’s rout of the Falcons, but they could certainly use both Sunday night in a big NFC East game against the Giants. However, Westbrook will miss...
San Diego Chargers (9-3) at Dallas Cowboys (8-4)
Probably the game of the day Sunday is in Dallas with a possible Super Bowl preview between streaking San Diego and the host Cowboys. Being as it’s December, that bodes well for the Chargers. They have won 15 straight in the month (seven in a r...
Washington Redskins (3-9) at Oakland Raiders (4-8)
The Redskins and Raiders are very much alike: both very disappointing and with owners who seem to be unable to get much right. Both teams tend to change coaches often as well, with Redskins coach Jim Zorn expected to get the axe after this season. Wh...
St. Louis Rams (1-11) at Tennessee Titans (5-7)
Last week’s loss to the Colts was crushing for the Titans, who had won five in a row since Vince Young took over. Now Tennessee must win out to have any shot at the playoffs, and it’s very unlikely that even a 9-7 record does the trick in...
Miami Dolphins (6-6) at Jacksonville Jaguars (7-5)
The state title of Florida is at stake Sunday in Jacksonville with a potential playoff spot also on the line for the Jags — who currently hold the AFC’s final wild-card spot — and Dolphins, who are a game back of the Patriots in the...
Baltimore Ravens (6-5) at Green Bay Packers (7-4)
Huge game Monday night in terms of wild-card possibilities for both Green Bay and Baltimore – entering Week 12, the Packers would be in the playoffs while the Ravens would be watching. Baltimore enters off a good win last Sunday night over Pittsbur...
Minnesota Vikings (10-1) at Arizona Cardinals (7-4)
Sunday’s Vikings-Cardinals game, which could well be a preview of the NFC championship, is one of those you should wait to be on until right before kickoff. That’s because the status of Cards starting QB Kurt Warner is likely to be a game...
Dallas Cowboys (8-3) at New York Giants (6-5)
One could argue that the New York Giants have only one quality win all season, and that was in Week 2 in Dallas. On Sunday, the Cowboys try for payback and would put a serious crimp in New York’s playoff plans in Dallas’ final visit to Giants Sta...
New England Patriots (7-4) at Miami Dolphins (5-6)
The New England Patriots are coming off a loss – which means they will win Sunday? How can I be so sure? They have gone an NFL-high 50 consecutive games without back-to-back losses. And of course New England has the short week to deal with after ge...
Houston Texans (5-6) at Jacksonville Jaguars (6-5)
The loser of Sunday’s game between Houston and Jacksonville can probably kiss the playoffs goodbye although the Jags, who currently hold the final wild-card spot in the AFC, can afford a defeat more than Houston can. The Texans have lost three ...
New England Patriots (7-3) at New Orleans Saints (10-0)
Well, this should be fun. Easily the most anticipated Monday night game of the year takes place this week when New England visits New Orleans – it’s the Pats’ first visit to the Superdome since winning Super Bowl XXXVI over the Rams. Th...
Pittsburgh Steelers (6-4) at Baltimore Ravens (5-5)
It appears that Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger will not play in Sunday’s very big game with the Ravens. Roethlisberger suffered a concussion in last week’s loss to the Chiefs and was suffering from exercise-induced headaches as the week progresse...
Chicago Bears (4-6) at Minnesota Vikings (9-1)
The slumping Chicago Bears might catch a huge break Sunday as Vikings star running back Adrian Peterson is questionable for the game with an ankle injury and an undisclosed illness. Peterson did not practice Friday and took limited reps on Wednesday ...
Arizona Cardinals (7-3) at Tennessee Titans (4-6)
While he is officially listed as questionable for Sunday’s game at Tennessee, Cardinals QB Kurt Warner, who suffered a concussion-like injury last week, went through another full practice Friday and is expected to play on Sunday. Warner left la...
Jacksonville Jaguars (6-4) at San Francisco 49ers (4-6)
Here are two teams going in opposite directions. The Jaguars have won three straight and four of five, while 49ers have lost five of six and now have very slim playoff hopes. Jacksonville, which already has surpassed 2008 win total (5-11), has its fi...
Kansas City Chiefs (3-7) at San Diego Chargers (7-3)
The only team playing better in the AFC right now than the streaking San Diego Chargers is the unbeaten Indianapolis Colts. But San Diego needs to keep winning to beat out New England and Cincinnati (presumably) for the conference’s important No. 2...
Indianapolis Colts (10-0) at Houston Texans (5-5)
The chic upset pick of the weekend seems to be Houston beating Indianapolis, and in fact the Texans nearly had a chance to win in Indy a few weeks ago but missed a 42-yard kick that would have sent the game into overtime. In the 2008 meeting between ...
Washington Redskins (3-7) at Philadelphia Eagles (6-4)
The Philadelphia Eagles need to beat Washington on Sunday to keep pace with Dallas in the NFC East, and that really shouldn’t be much of a problem for Philly. A month ago, DeSean Jackson scored two long touchdowns as the Eagles beat the Redskins, 2...
Carolina Panthers (4-6) at New York Jets (4-6)
The loser of Sunday’s Carolina-New York game can pretty much kiss the playoffs goodbye, and both teams come off bad losses that made the postseason unlikely anyways. Mark Sanchez threw four interceptions last week as the Jets fell to the rival ...
Seattle Seahawks (3-7) at St. Louis Rams (1-9)
Sunday’s Seattle at St. Louis matchup is easily the dog game of the weekend as it’s the only one that matches two teams with losing records. But you can still be on it, and isn’t that really all that matters? The Seahawks have lost six ...
Tennessee Titans (3-6) at Houston Texans (5-4)
One of the hottest teams in the NFL is the Tennessee Titans, who started 0-6 but have won three in a row (covering in all three) since Vince Young took over as the starting QB. Young returns to his hometown of Houston for Monday night’s game, and h...
Philadelphia Eagles (5-4) at Chicago Bears (4-5)
Not too long ago, the Philadelphia Eagles looked like one of the best teams in the NFC. But following back-to-back losses to Dallas and San Diego, the Eagles face a key game Sunday against equally desperate Chicago, which has lost four of five. The B...
New York Jets (4-5) at New England Patriots (6-3)
Not that you probably ever want to face the New England Patriots, but the Jets seem to have the double whammy against them for Sunday’s game. In that 16-9 Week 2 win, the Jets stopped two Patriots drives in the final five minutes of the game. I...
Cincinnati Bengals (7-2) at Oakland Raiders (2-7)
Running back Cedric Benson has been vital to the Cincinnati Bengals’ success this season, but it appears that Benson is iffy at best for Sunday’s game at Oakland. Benson hurt his hip during last week’s win over Pittsburgh, and the f...
San Diego Chargers (6-3) at Denver Broncos (6-3)
Just a month ago, it appeared the Denver Broncos had all but put the AFC West away with a 34-23 win in San Diego on a Monday night. In that game, Eddie Royal became the first player in Broncos history to return a kickoff and a punt for touchdowns in ...
Arizona Cardinals (6-3) at St. Louis Rams (1-8)
Kurt Warner really likes playing in St. Louis. In three games at the Edward Jones Dome since leaving the Rams, Warner has passed for 818 yards (an average of 273 a game), six touchdowns and only one interception. Look for good numbers Sunday again as...
Indianapolis Colts (9-0) at Baltimore Ravens (5-4)
If the Indianapolis Colts don’t lose Sunday in Baltimore, they may get through the regular season unscathed after all. Indy probably should have one loss but for Bill Belichick’s controversial decision last Sunday in the game the Pats seemed ...
New Orleans Saints (9-0) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-8)
This should be a total mismatch right? The Saints are NFL’s highest-scoring team (36.8 points per game), while the Bucs are next-to-last in scoring defense (28.4). But Tampa Bay has won three of last four meetings between these NFC South rivals...
