pats/raiders en mexico

pats have never played there, and thats a home game for the raiders in a lot of ways.

rams/vikings 1A

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Rams/ Vikes for me. 2 div leaders and play-off seeding spots on the line possibly. Slightly bigger game for the Rams, imo. They need to continue winning to stay ahead of Seattle. They lose and Seattle wins Monday and the Hawks are back in first. NFCW will go down to the wire, I think
Meanwhile, Minny looks to be cruising to first in the NFCN. Without Rodgers, GB is not a threat and the Lions are a .500 team.

I'm also hoping the Titans, Skins, Raiders and Cowboys all win and bring the front runners back to the pack a bit. Not gonna hold my breath on most of those though.

Rams Vikings

Titans Steelers may be an even matchup, but both teams are pretenders IMO

 

[Balljim55]

Rams/Vikings for sure..
Seattle/Atlanta will be interesting though. two quality teams that can ill afford a loss

 

[Iggloo]

Rams-Vikings has major implications for NFC playoff seeding.

Seattle-Atlanta does too, but more for wildcard.

 

[rmilia1]

Rams- Vikings and Falcons- Seahawks are the most meaningful . Good slate of games this week though

 

[packerzrule]

Titans @ Steelers is also meaningful

I had two...not sure which is bigger.

TN @ PIT...TNF...after a lack luster performance on the road after a bye week, I'm sure the PIT OFC would like to play a cleaner game. Dick LaBeau back in PIT for the 1st time since he left. That will make a little more special. This is not your typical TN Titans team...they don't look particularly stout on DEF, but they have some playmakers on DEF, and Mariota can make plays running and throwing. The Titans have lost every road game except week 7 (@ CLE) and haven't scored more than 14 pts in a road since they hammered JAX on the road in week 2...should be a tight game, based on how the Steelers have played.

While I think PHI @ DAL is great game and extremely important to DAL...PHI would like to but another nail in the Cowboys coffin, but they can afford a loss.

My other one has some local ties...ATL @ SEA...both team MUST have this game. CAR is not out of the DIV race yet, but ATL is imo...the WC is their only road to the playoffs. If they win, they take the h-t-h tie-breaker over DAL and SEA...if they lose, they can pretty much plan the winter golf vacations. SEA can lose this game and still overtake the Rams but they can't tie the Falcons in a WC situation.

Rams lose and Seahawks win and the Seahawks are in 1st place in the NFC West.

Just a reminder, Falcons need to go 5-2 for you to win our avi bet.

Yepper . I feel a lot better today than I did last Tuesday lol. 4 home games left and 2 with the Bucs. This week's game is huge with Seattle being so dinged up

It's gonna be tight. Turned into a good bet.

I shouldn't have given you 9 wins since you said 7-9 lol. That may come back to haunt me but I still feel good about 10 especially if we can beat Seattle

Do ya really?

It made this week's game mean something...I can say that much.

I do because the offense looked more balanced and the OL protected far better. I don't put much stock into the defensive performance because of what Dallas was missing but this team is almost solely going to go where the offense goes. The D is better but Atlanta is unbeaten when they score more than 17 points . That should never be an issue for a team with the kind if talent Atlanta has. The last 3 quarters of the Dallas game looked far better than the prior month .

Sports talk mid day were running a poll trying to gauge how the avg Falcon fan is viewing them...half full or half empty...I'm logging you in as a half full!

I tend to agree with your point on the OFC...they are where they are because of the OFC, and and if they are to make the dance, the OFC has to be the catalyst. The DEF is better like you said, but still young...I'm not sure how much better they will play this season.

The DAL win takes them out to SEA in a totally different mindset...SEA is not the SEA of old on DEF...but if they win out there I give them a decent shot at 10 wins. I'm still waiting for the Saints to come back to the pack, but they beat the crap out of pretty decent BUF DEF on the road...scary.
