Week 13 Preview

Last week: 12-4

This Week's Games

-Jets (5-6) vs. Bills (4-7): The early game this week is not one anyone will watch. Bills have a good pass defense (contained Brady and Brees) so expect a rough day for the Jets' rookie. Owens vs. Revis is the matchup to pay attention to in this divisional rivalry. Bills by 3

-Eagles (7-4) vs. Falcons (6-5): With injuries to playmakers Jackson and Westbrook, McNabb has to depend on McCoy and Avant. Chris Redman is a capable backup, let's see how he does against the Philly blitz. Falcons by 6

-Titans (5-6) vs. Colts (11-0): Colts have always been vulnerable against the run and still have a lot of key injuries on defense, and that is good news for Chris Johnson. I think it depends on how the Titans defense plays; they have been great during this winning streak and Peyton has been turning the ball over a lot lately. I expect neither team scores over 20. Titans by 2

-Vikings (10-1) vs. Cardinals (7-4): If Warner doesn't play this game is a blowout, but it looks like he will play. There are a lot of great matchups in this one. Kurt Warner has always been susceptible to the sack (hello Mr Allen), but if he gets enough time to find Larry Fitzgerald I expect a few visits to the endzone for the star wideout. The Vikings are getting Antoine Winfield back. I like the time off to help Warner and I see the home team winning in a shootout. Cardinals by 7

-Cowboys (8-3) vs. Giants (6-5): November is over and this is the beginning of another tough run for the Cowboys. Giants are desperate, but may be too beat up to compete. If the Cowboys stay with pounding the ball on the ground it could be a blowout. I want to pick the desperate home team in this huge rivalry, but there are too many injuries on defense, Jacobs still hasn't heated up, we don't know if Bradshaw will play, and Eli hasn't been good for a long time. Why should we think their redzone woes end this week? Cowboys by 17

-Ravens (6-5) vs. Packers (7-4): Packers have trouble protecting the quarterback and Baltimore is coming to town. Ravens by 10

-Broncos (7-4) vs. Chiefs (3-8): upset alert! Chiefs by 3

-Rams (1-10) vs. Bears (4-7): Bears by 6
-Lions (2-9) vs. Bengals (8-3): Bengals by 7
-Patriots (7-4) vs. Dolphins (5-6): Patriots by 7
-Raiders (3-8) vs. Steelers (6-5): Steelers by 7
-Saints (11-0) vs. Redskins (3-8): Saints by 6
-Bucs (1-10) vs. Panthers (4-7): Panthers by 3
-Texans (5-6) vs. Jaguars (6-5): Texans by 14
-Chargers (8-3) vs. Browns (1-10): Chargers by 20
-49ers (5-6) vs. Seahawks (4-7): 49ers by 6
