Texans. Buffalo beat one team this season that has a winning record. Texans got up for, and won, games vs NE and KC. Texans cover.

Pats. Good chance their season ends the week after in KC, but Pats are a complete enough team to beat the Titans at home. Pats cover.

Saints. By the third snap we will see the Diggs catch from 2 years ago from 6 angles and in 4 languages. Likely only highlight for the Vikings on the day. Minnesota has weapons, but Cousins is far too inconsistent in using them. Saints seem to make adjustments where Minnesota, once behind, can’t seem to figure things out. Saints cover.

Eagles. Hate to say it but this will be the upset of the weekend. Seahawks have stumbled losing three of their last 4. 2 games prior to that, played well but kept the Panthers, and Eagles, within reach and ended up winning by one score. No running game really with the top 3 backs out. Wilson has been relying on a third string TE in Hollister for a number of weeks now, and third string RB to keep the ball moving. Lynch gives a boost to the swagger and confidence and can still play, but a lot to ask to be a difference maker after 2 weeks after 14 months away. Loss of the three rb’s and Gordon as a receiving threat. Defense has looked average, though if they have Diggs back that will help to catch some of Wentz’s nervous throws.

Philly is no prize team either, and Wentz isn’t the answer, but, to their credit they have had to win the last 2 to get in. Seattle had December losses vs the Rams and Cardinals and of course last night, which, if even one went the other way, would’ve had a home game or two, and had a bye, which is what they need to feed off the crowd. Wilson can pull the team out of the fire as he did second half last night, but I just don’t think Seattle will put it together enough and have enough playmakers against a team that has nothing to lose. Eagles win by 1 or 2.
