The final day of the 2015 NFL Season. It's also the only day of the season in which all 32 teams take the field. Some teams don't really have much to play for today so picking the games are more of a crapshoot than usual. Here's a stab at those picks.
Minnesota Vikings @ Green Bay Packers
Pick: Vikings
The Vikings were bumped to Sunday night for a second week in a row because they are so damn good. The pick here is that the Vikings take the NFC North crown. And the #3 seed in the NFC playoffs.
New Orleans Saints @ Atlanta Falcons
Pick: Saints
The Falcons were still alive in the playoff chase until the Vikings won last Sunday night. The guess here is that they are still struggling to accept that.
New York Jets @ Buffalo Bills
Pick: Jets
How fun? Bills coach Rex Ryan is put in a position to throttle the postseason hopes of the team that he was coaching this time last year. The Jets have been playing well.
Detroit Lions @ Chicago Bears
Pick: Lions
The Lions have been playing like they were supposed to play at the start of the season.
Baltimore Ravens @ Cincinnati Bengals
Pick: Bengals
Can the Ravens surprise the Bengals like they did the Steelers last week?
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cleveland Browns
Pick: Steelers
The Steelers just had to beat the Ravens and Browns these last two weeks. They will be thinking about last week's loss to the Ravens for a long time.
Washington Redskins @ Dallas Cowboys
Pick: Redskins
The Redskins should be able to win their second road game of the season.
Jacksonville Jaguars @ Houston Texans
Pick: Texans
The Texans could take the AFC South with a winning record. A team on top of that division with a winning record didn't seem possible only a few weeks ago.
Tennessee Titans @ Indianapolis Colts
Pick: Titans
The quarterback matchup in this game could be Zach Mettenberg vs. Josh Freeman. That's stomach-churning,. Seeing Freeman overthrow another receiver in an NFL game is stomach-wrenching.
New England Patriots @ Miami Dolphins
Pick: Patriots
The Patriots should wrap up home-field throughout the AFC playoffs.
Philadelphia Eagles @ New York Giants
Pick: Giants
At least Odell Beckham Jr. will be back for this game.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Carolina Panthers
Pick: Panthers
It's hard to imagine the Panthers losing two games in a row.
Oakland Raiders @ Kansas City Chiefs
Pick: Chiefs
It's simply stunning that the Chiefs haven't lost since their Week 6 loss to the Vikings. It would be nearly as stunning if they lost this game.
Seattle Seahawks @ Arizona Cardinals
Pick: Cardinals
This could be a fantastic game. The Cardinals are playing great.
San Diego Chargers @ Denver Broncos
Pick: Broncos
Who knows? The Chargers could surprise.
St. Louis Rams @ San Francisco 49ers
Pick: Rams
Case Keenum vs. Blaine Gabbert. Oh boy.
The NFL Playoffs will begin shortly.
