NFL Regular season finale...

NFL Final Week

The 2011 NFL season has reached its final week with playoff possibilities galore in the AFC. Basically every AFC game this week except one could affect who plays next weekend.

Last week, I had a decent 12-4 prediction week putting me at 145-95 for the season. I am hoping to end the regular season with a good week so here we go:

Carolina @ New Orleans

The Panthers have shown a little fire lately and may become a team to watch as Cam Newton develops. This week however it will be tough to get a win against the Saints who are tuning up for the playoffs.

New Orleans 34-24

Buffalo @ New England

New England 24-20

Chicago @ Minnesota

Minnesota 31-27

NY Jets @ Miami

The Dolphins could do the AFC a favour and keep the Jets out of the post season and another improbable run to the AFC Championship. Miami has been tough lately and will pull off the minor upset.

Miami 27-21

San Francisco @ St. Louis

San Francisco 30-14

Detroit @ Green Bay

The Packers may limit the use of a few players carrying injuries so that opens the door for a big Detroit win

Detroit 27-20

Washington @ Philadelphia

Philadelphia 31-17

Indianapolis @ Jacksonville

Jacksonville 34-24

Seattle @ Arizona

Arizona 30-28

Kansas City @ Denver

Kyle Orton returns to Denver to haunt the Broncs who released him earlier in the year.

Kansas City 23-14

Tampa Bay @ Atlanta

Atlanta 38-24

Baltimore @ Cincinnati

Baltimore 24-20

Pittsburgh @ Cleveland

Pittsburgh 27-17

San Diego @ Oakland

Well my Chargers have disappointed again and now go into the Black Hole with the Raiders looking to get into the playoffs….give it to Oakland in memory of Al.

Oakland 24-21

Dallas @ NY Giants

Essentially the first wild card game, the winner advances, the losers reminisces. I think the Giants will get the best of Dallas again.

NY Giants 30-24


Tennessee @ Houston
Titans need this one to keep post season hopes alive. Houston has struggled lately, could be the game of the day...slight not to the Titans.
Tennessee 21-17

Happy New Year all…see you next week for playoff picks...
