Weird lack of compelling games for being this late in the season. There's a handful of games with playoff implications and a bunch of dogs, including the primetime slate:

TNF - Jets @ Ravens. Barf. Good thing we have the CyHawk game tonight.

SNF - Bills @ Steelers. Actually might be a decent game, although I'm kind of wiating for the other shoe to drop with the Steelers and Devlin Hodges. Tomlin has done an incredible job keeping the team afloat, but how long can you hide the third string QB before he gets exposed?

MNF - Colts @ Saints. Please put Indy out of their misery.

The best of the weekend looks to be Bears @ Packers and Texans @ Titans.

There were several great matchups last week, this must be the calm before the storm. Next week we have Packers/Vikings, Eagles/Cowboys, and Bills/Patriots. Plsu, depending on what happens this weekend, Rams/49ers and Chiefs/Bears could be compelling also.

Hoping the Bills take care of business and set up a showdown with New England the following week. It's just nice to see the Pats have to put in a little effort to actually put the AFC East away this year.

Vikings can't afford a letdown this week against the Chargers. They need the win to set up the showdown with Green Bay next weekend.

Broncos at Chiefs. Big Homecoming game for Drew Lock. Unlucky for him he'll likely be without his starting RG & RT.

Chiefs win big.

Dak with the big brain move of choosing to kick instead of deferring. Rams get the ball to start both halves

Cook hurt his shoulder, not sure how bad but it could be bad news for Minnesota

Seattle goes from #5 to #1 seed in an afternoon. Niners trip on their own dicks and let Atlanta beat them. Makes that Week 17 game between the Niners and Seahawks very interesting.

And break up the Buccaneers! :rolleyes:

They're getting backed into a corner with Jameis Winston. He's still a turnover machine, but he's doing just enough to where they can't quite justify moving on from him after this season. And they've won too many games to secure a top ten pick where they might be able to draft a new quarterback.
