I could use another snow game. I like them quite a bit. Hopefully it’s coming down fiercely in the Bay of Green. TO THE GAMES!

NYJ/SF– 3-9 vs. 1-11. The only reason they’re playing this is because Hippo has a player from one of these teams on his bench. Kidding! With his luck he probably started the guy.

NO/TB– Not so very long ago Tampa was doing their very best “Andrea Yates’ children” impression because they were dead in the water. Four games and 13 points (average) given up later and it turns out they’re actually born-again. (the Bucs, not the kids) The old saw states that, “D wins championships” and I started yapping last year that the Bucs have a great deal of talent on that side of the ball. Their run game is completely abysmal so they’re not doing anything of note this year but sneaking into the playoffs would do them some good. The Saints at 5-7 “control their own fate” in the same way that a 90 yr. old man controls his bladder.

Atl/LA– The Rams are last in the league with 284 yards per game. You know what that gets you? That’s right-a contract extension. 29th in passing yards? Contract extension. 30th in yards rushed? Contract extension. Last in the league in points scored at 15 per game? (the Browns average 16.4 for Kessler’s sake!) You guessed it-contract extension. It looks as though wr Julio is a game-timer so you’re screwed if he sits this one out.

Sea/GB– All three losses for the ‘Hawks have been on the road which suits Aaron Rodgers’ semi-prediction that the Pack will ‘run the table’ just fine. This looks like a great match-up in and of itself. It also looks like a game that will not clarify the playoff picture one little bit no matter the outcome.

Done. GIVE ME YOUR BEST!
