NFL Week 17 Picks

By Scott Burks
Well, here are my early "please play your
starters because my Steelers need you guys to win so they can make the
playoffs" picks for Week 17 in
the NFL.
Drumroll please...
Game of the Week:
Philadelphia Eagles at Dallas Cowboys.
BIG game that will not only determine the winner of the NFC East, but may
also determine the #2 seed in the NFC playoffs. The Eagles' road is
simple: win the game, and they win the NFC East and lock up the #2 seed.
The Cowboys is a bit more complicated. Even though they win the
division with a win, it doesn't guarantee Dallas a #2 seed (the Cardinals
and Vikings have to lose for that to happen). The good news is Dallas
will at least accomplish half of that equation. After all, not only
will they be playing at home, but Dallas already beat the Eagles at Philly.
In my opinion, that counts for something...
Cowboys 28, Eagles 24.
The "Who Gives a Damn" Games of the Week:
Bears over Lions. Both teams' seasons are mercifully coming to an
end...
Other Sunday Games:
Saints over Panthers
Steelers over Dolphins
Colts over Bills (screw you Jim Caldwell)
Jaguars over Browns
Patriots over Texans (if they play their starters)
Vikings over Giants
49ers over Lambs (Rams)
Falcons over Buccaneers
Cardinals over Packers
Broncos over Chefs (Chiefs)
Ravens over Raiders
Chargers over Redskins
Titans over Seahawks
Bengals over Jets (if they play their starters)
