Predictions:
Browns 24, Texans 20
Chiefs 23, Dolphins 17
Cowboys 31, Packers 13
Rams 24, Lions 17
Bills 23, Steelers 13
Eagles 20, Bucs 17
In good weather I might favor the Bucs against Philly. But Baker and his Floridian comrades will melt in the rain. Though I wouldn't be surprised if Philly finishes their late-season meltdown with one final muddy fail.
I see Tua choking hard tonight. And McDaniel will get that frightened, befuddled look that we have become accustomed to seeing whenever they face a good team.
Lions will struggle to move the ball. Goff is a fraud. Stafford is a bit of a fraud too but less so than Goff. LA is playing with house money and will upset a nervous young Lions club who are not ready for orimetime, and the expectatios that comewith ending their playoff wins drought.
Steelers offense is trash. Sayonara. Allen will be able to scrape tigether enough points to win in still-bad weather on Monday
Packers are a joke and will get curb-stomped like the Pats did against Buffalo 2 years ago.
Texans will put in a good effort, but the Browns squeak one out due to strong defense and Flacco accepting his role as a game manager.
