Flea Flicker Week 17 Predictions

For the first time this season, all 16 games are on Sunday. Here are some guesses at the outcomes of those games. It’s tough to pick Week 17 games. Some teams try. Some don’t.

Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions
Pick: Vikings
The Vikings put a winning cap on a frustrating season. 
RIP James Cook. 

Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills
Pick: Bills
The Bills are the better team. Who knows if the best Bills team plays?

Baltimore Ravens @ Cincinnati Bengals 
Pick: Ravens
The Ravens are the better team and they must win this game.

Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cleveland Browns
Pick: Browns
The Browns must win. The Steelers are waiting for the playoffs.

New York Jets @ New England Patriots
Pick: Patriots
I guess.

Dallas Cowboys @ New York Giants
Pick: Cowboys
It’s an NFC East playoff game. Both teams need a win and a Washington loss. 

Atlanta Falcons @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Pick: Buccaneers
The Falcons usually find a way to lose.

Green Bay Packers @ Chicago Bears
Pick: Packers
The Packers are playing for the NFC’s #1 seed and lone bye. I’m of the opinion that the playoffs will be more entertaining without the Bears.

Oakland Raiders @ Denver Broncos
Pick: Raiders
I guess. 

Jacksonville Jaguars @ Indianapolis Colts
Pick: Colts
The Colts must win. And wait for help. It’s crazy that an 11-5 AFC team might not make the playoffs.

Los Angeles Chargers @ Kansas City Chiefs
Pick: Chargers
The Chargers can brag that they beat the Chiefs. The Chiefs likely don’t care. 

Arizona Cardinals @ Los Angeles Rams
Pick: Cardinals
Both teams need this win. The Rams won’t have their quarterback.

Seattle Seahawks @ San Francisco 49ers
Pick: 49ers
I’ll always pick an opportunity to see Pete Carroll sad.

New Orleans Saints @ Carolina Panthers
Pick: Saints
The Saints still have a shot at the #1 seed. They’ll have to win without their running backs,

Tennessee Titans @ Houston Texans
Pick: Titans
The Titans are in a “Win and In” situation. 

Washington @ Philadelphia Eagles
Pick: Washington
Washington must win.
