Old School Meets New School
The Minnesota Vikings sent a strong message by going on the road and knocking off an NFC South power last time out. Now, can they do it again? Minnesota is in the running for the top seed in the conference despite losing starting quarterback Sam Bradford early in the year. The Vikings hope Case Keenum can lead them to another road victory in Week 14 when they face off against the Carolina Panthers....
The Detroit Lions are still alive in the NFC playoff race, but have to finish the season extremely well in order to surpass one of the current wild card entrants. They are looking at a must-win situation when they hit the road for Week 14 in a matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers....
The NFC South has turned out to be the best division in football, and it still has a long way to go before the champion is decided. The New Orleans Saints can stay ahead of the rest of the pack with a critical win this week against a divisional foe, but it won’t be easy. The Atlanta Falcons get to host the Saints with a chance to pull within one game of New Orleans as the regular season winds down....
After a dominant start to the season, the Kansas City Chiefs have fallen to .500, and now sit in a three-way tie atop the AFC West. The Oakland Raiders are one of the other teams at 6-6 on the year in the division and these two teams will face off in a crucial Week 14 showdown....
The Green Bay Packers picked up an essential win last time out against the Buccaneers as they try to remain in the NFC playoff race with star quarterback Aaron Rodgers nearing his return. Green Bay has struggled without its superstar but got back to 6-6 with the critical win and has a good shot at getting above it in Week 14 against the Cleveland Browns....
The Buffalo Bills are fading fast, and need to turn it around to remain competitive in the AFC Playoff race. They have a good opportunity to get back on track when they host the struggling Indianapolis Colts. Buffalo started the season well but is now down to .500, which is one game behind the Baltimore Ravens for the final postseason spot in the conference....
The Cincinnati Bengals are hanging around in the AFC wild card race, but if they are truly going to be postseason contenders, they will need to come up with some signature wins down the stretch. One could come in Week 13 as they host the Pittsburgh Steelers in a matchup of AFC North rivals....
The Arizona Cardinals were sizable underdogs at home last time out and came away with an upset of the Jaguars. They would love to duplicate the trick this week against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams dominated the first matchup between these teams and could take a step closer to the NFC West title with a victory here in Week 13....
The Detroit Lions and Baltimore Ravens have identical records, but are in vastly different spots in their respective playoff races. The 6-5 Ravens sit in the second wild card spot in the AFC, while the 6-5 Lions are out of the postseason picture and need a strong finish in the much tougher NFC. These teams will face off in Week 13 in a critical matchup for both sides....
The Oakland Raiders have underachieved this season, but in an AFC that has a muddled middle class, they are still very much alive both in the AFC West and in the wild card hunt. Oakland has a golden chance to get back to .500 on the season when they host the New York Giants in Week 13....
The Philadelphia Eagles fancy themselves the best team in the NFC and legitimate Super Bowl contenders. There’s no better way to prove that then by going on the road and knocking off one of the perennial contenders from their conference. The Seattle Seahawks will welcome Philadelphia to their home and will have a lot of pride in trying to take care of business in this one....
The Jacksonville Jaguars are the best team in the AFC South this season, but an upset loss last week in Arizona has dropped them behind the Tennessee Titans in the division. The Jaguars need to play well down the stretch in order to win the division title and get home field advantage in the first round of the playoffs. They have a good opportunity to get back on track when they host the Indianapolis Colts in Week 13....
Despite an 0-4 start, Los Angeles is only a game back of the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West and coming on strong. The Browns, meanwhile, are once again a mess and seemingly headed toward the top pick in the NFL draft....
The Kansas City Chiefs have slowed down considerably after a hot start. Now, not only is their AFC West lead shrinking, but more struggles could put their playoff standing in danger. Kansas City will aim to break a lull of five losses in its past six games in a Week 13 road game against the New York Jets....
The Denver Broncos have officially imploded. A team that just two seasons ago won the Super Bowl has watched an ugly quarterback situation derail its hopes. Denver has lost seven consecutive games but is actually favored in Week 13 when it hits the road to face off against the struggling Miami Dolphins....
The Tennessee Titans haven’t won any beauty contests in their wins this season, but nonetheless find themselves atop the AFC South with a 7-4 record on the season. They will be favored to remain there as they host the struggling Houston Texans in Week 13 of the regular season....
The NFC South is one of the best divisions in the NFL, and the teams tied atop it are the Carolina Panthers and New Orleans Saints. Those two teams will meet in a critical regular season clash in Week 13. Both teams have been fantastic this season, entering with identical 8-3 records....
Aaron Rodgers could return to practice soon, and may be on pace to return to the field on Dec. 17 against the Panthers. But will the Green Bay Packers still be playing meaningful games at that point? Green Bay has struggled mightily since the loss of Rodgers to a broken collarbone early in the season and are nearly out of the playoff hunt. They play in a must-win game in Week 13 at home against the struggling Tampa Bay Buccaneers....
The Minnesota Vikings are looking like a Super Bowl contender. They can really hammer that point home if they can go on the road and beat the NFC’s Super Bowl participant from a season ago. In one of the premier matchups of Week 13, the Atlanta Falcons will host the Vikings in a game with all sorts of playoff implications....
The Dallas Cowboys’ playoff hopes are hanging by a thread after they entered the season with such high expectations. They will face off against the Washington Redskins in Week 13 in a game that will act as a pseudo elimination game since both are 5-6 on the year and seem unlikely to make a run with another loss....
The 49ers haven’t chosen to start Jimmy Garoppolo since trading for him at the deadline, but they may not have a choice this week. Quarterback C.J. Beathard hurt his leg and possibly his head late in Sunday’s loss to the Seahawks, forcing Garoppolo into the game. If Beathard isn’t healthy enough for Week 13 it will be Garoppolo getting the call on the road against the Chicago Bears....
The race for the top seed in the AFC is coming down to two familiar teams -- the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers. New England has shaken off a slow start and has really excelled of late. The Patriots will aim to stay hot when they go on the road for a matchup against the Buffalo Bills in Week 13....
The Baltimore Ravens’ offense has had trouble getting rolling in 2017. Luckily it has the defense to lean on. Baltimore’s stingy unit pitched its third shutout of the season last time out against the Packers to improve to 5-5 and stay right in the hunt for a wild card berth. The Ravens hope to pick up another victory in Week 12 when they host the Houston Texans....
Two surprise contenders in the NFC will face off in a titanic Week 12 matchup when the New Orleans Saints travel to face off against the Los Angeles Rams. Both teams weren’t given a great shot at making the playoffs in 2017 but each sit atop their division more than midway through the season....
The Seattle Seahawks have long been one of the elite teams in the NFC, but are in danger of missing the playoffs this season. Injuries have hit Seattle hard in the secondary, with cornerback Richard Sherman and safety Kam Chancellor possibly done for the season. The Seahawks must find a way to win without them, but luckily that task shouldn’t be too tough when they face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12 in the regular season....
