Wrong button! As I was writing: Kansas City at Indianapolis (4:00 pm, NBC): The Colts are at home, and have one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL. However, the Chiefs have a pretty good offense of their own, led by the incredible Larry Johnson. Since Indy can't stop the run, and K.C. has a lousy pass defense, this could be a shootout. And shootouts favor Manning. My pick: Colts. Dallas at Seattle (8:00 pm, NBC): Both of these teams are inconsistent, to put it mildly. I'm going to flip a coin here (Seattle gets heads), and pick: the Cowboys. N.Y. Jets at New England (1:00 pm, CBS): Eric Mangini deserves Coach of the Year. This will be the third meeting between these two, and Belichick is too good a coach to let his disciple get the better of him at crunch time. My pick: Patriots. N.Y. Giants at Philadelphia (4:00 pm, FOX): This is the easiest one to pick. The Eagles weren't even supposed to have a winning season, yet here they are! The Gnats were supposed to dominate the NFC East, yet here they are. Sorry Tiki! My pick: Eagles. D’oh! Wrong button!

Giants at Washington – Giants are vying for a playoff spot, ‘Skins are vying to go home. Take the Giants. Carolina at New Orleans – The Saints are about to nail down a bye week. Take the Saints. Cleveland at Houston – Until the Texans beat the Colts, I actually believed the Browns could win this one. Take the Texans. Detroit at Dallas – Philly wins the division…take the Lions. Jacksonville at Kansas City – In a non-playoff battle, where neither of these teams will make it, take the Jaguars. New England at Tennessee – Could Tennessee actually go from the depths of despair to 9-7 ? Yes…take the Titans. Oakland at N.Y. Jets – J-E-T-S…Jets, Jets, Jets. On to the playoffs…take the Jets. Pittsburgh at Cincinnati – Again, from the depths of despair to 8-8…not a bad recovery, but too little too late…take the Steelers. Seattle at Tampa Bay – Bad game, bad result…take the Buccaneers (and an 8-8 division title for Seattle) St. Louis at Minnesota – They forgot how to play football in both these towns. Take the Rams. Arizona at San Diego – San Diego takes home field with the best record in the NFL, and on to the Super Bowl. Take the Chargers. Atlanta at Philadelphia – Philadelphia wins the division with a win over the hapless Falcons. Take the Eagles. Buffalo at Baltimore – A good run for Buffalo is going to end short. Take the Ravens (they get the other bye). Miami at Indianapolis – Interesting game, but the Colts still can’t tackle my grandma. Take the Dolphins. San Francisco at Denver – Denver solidifies their wildcard showing. Had the Niners beat Arizona, I’d take the Niners, but since they didn’t, take the Broncos. Green Bay at Chicago – Will Green Bay make the playoffs ? No…take the Bears. My picks for week 17 (I will move this to the week 17 blog when it’s out)…
