Thursday, Dec. 13, 2012
Cincinnati Bengals 34, Philadelphia Eagles 13
	24	This is a must-win for the Bengals coming off their disappointing loss to the Cowboys. Nick Foles looked good last week against the Bucs, but the Bengals front is much better than Tampa Bay's. That will be a factor here. Also, look for A.J. Green to bounce back with a big game. Result: Cincinnati Bengals 34, Philadelphia Eagles 13
	17
Sunday, Dec. 16, 2012
NY Giants 0, Atlanta Falcons 34
	38	The Falcons looked bad in losing at Carolina last week, but was that a look-ahead? I think it was. They need a game to show the league they are for real. This is it. Look for a lot of points and look for Matt Ryan to outduel Eli Manning. Result: Atlanta Falcons 34, NY Giants 0
	32
Denver Broncos 34, Baltimore Ravens 17
	27	The Ravens fired offensive coordinator Cam Cameron this week. What does that mean? Who knows? We know the Denver offense will roll with Peyton Manning. The Ravens aren't that good on defense. Manning has a big day. Result: Denver Broncos 34, Baltimore Ravens 17
	20
Green Bay Packers 21, Chicago Bears 13
	27	The Bears are fading fast, and a loss here will give Green Bay the division title. The Packers are getting healthy, and could have Clay Matthews and Charles Woodson back. The Bears are playing for their lives, but the Packers are better. Result: Green Bay Packers 21, Chicago Bears 13
	17
Washington Redskins 38, Cleveland Browns 21
	26	The Redskins likely will be without Robert Griffin III here. That means Kirk Cousins will start. This would be a tough game even with RG3. The Browns are coming on. If Cousins does make his first start, it won't be easy. The Browns can run the ball with Trent Richardson and Josh Gordon is improving. Cleveland takes it. Result: Cleveland Browns 21, Washington Redskins 38
	17
Indianapolis Colts 17, Houston Texans 29
	31	The Texans will be steaming after that Monday night beating by the Patriots. They can take it out on the Colts. If they win here, the Texans clinch the division. The Colts are 9-4, but they are not as good as that record. That will show up in this one. Houston bounces back with a big victory. Result: Houston Texans 29, Indianapolis Colts 17
	20
Jacksonville Jaguars 3, Miami Dolphins 24
	21	Chad Henne starts against his former team here in Miami for the Jaguars. The Dolphins are the better team, especially on defense. Jacksonville is too banged up. The Dolphins get the home victory. Result: Miami Dolphins 24, Jacksonville Jaguars 3
	13
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 0, New Orleans Saints 41
	37	The Saints are out of it, so now they are playing for pride. Tampa Bay is still alive, but the Saints beat them earlier in the season. I think they do it again. Drew Brees will light up an overmatched Tampa Bay secondary. Result: New Orleans Saints 41, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 0
	27
Minnesota Vikings 36, St. Louis Rams 22
	21	Surprise, surprise. This is a huge game. Both teams are still alive in the playoff race. The Rams have played some good defense the past couple of weeks, which isn't a good thing for Christian Ponder. Look for St Louis to get after him, limit Adrian Peterson, and get the victory. Result: St. Louis Rams 22, Minnesota Vikings 36
	13
Detroit Lions 10, Arizona Cardinals 38
	29	The Cardinals are a disaster. Big changes could be coming. The Lions are done as well. And they are playing a second consecutive road game. Doesn't matter. The Lions will find a way. Matt Stafford and Calvin Johnson have a field day. Result: Detroit Lions 10, Arizona Cardinals 38
	14
Seattle Seahawks 50, Buffalo Bills 17
	23	This is a long trip for the Seahawks, who are riding high. But this is one of those be-careful games for Seattle. Russell Wilson isn't as good away from home. Seattle will win, but it will be close. Result: Seattle Seahawks 50, Buffalo Bills 17
	21
Carolina Panthers 31, San Diego Chargers 7
	33	The Panthers looked good beating the Falcons last week, but this is a long trip and there could be a natural letdown. Cam Newton is playing great the past four weeks but I think San Diego will show up at home to keep its playoff hopes alive. Result: San Diego Chargers 7, Carolina Panthers 31
	27
Pittsburgh Steelers 24, Dallas Cowboys 27
	28	The Cowboys kept their season alive by beating the Bengals in an emotional game, but now they have to get back to some normalcy. The Steelers looked awful last week in losing to the Chargers. Can they bounce back? I think they can. Result: Pittsburgh Steelers 24, Dallas Cowboys 27
	20
Kansas City Chiefs 0, Oakland Raiders 15
	20	This battle of old AFL rivals is really a battle for the top overall pick. Both have a chance to get it, but the winner will likely be out. The Chiefs always play well at Oakland, and even though they are playing a second consecutive road game, I think they take it. Result: Kansas City Chiefs 0, Oakland Raiders 15
	17
San Francisco 49ers 41, New England Patriots 34
	27	This is the classic game matching the best offenses vs. the best defense. They say defense always wins. Not here. Tom Brady will make plays down the field against the 49ers. Can Colin Kaepernick keep up? Not likely. Patriots stake their claim as the NFL's best. Result: New England Patriots 34, San Francisco 49ers 41
	17

NY Jets 10, Tennessee Titans 14
	24	The Jets are still alive in the AFC race, having won two straight games. But are they good enough to win three? I don't think so. The Titans will play an inspired game on Monday night like they did on a Thursday to beat the Steelers. And it's not like Mark Sanchez is lighting things up. Result: Tennessee Titans 14, NY Jets 10
