Sports Takes Sure To Be Wrong (Although We Know The Majority Of These Will Be Right) | NFL Week 12

Uncle Pdub rebounded with a 9-5 record last week – just like predicted I would.

Hint: I rarely have bad picks two weeks in a row (Have you noticed?).

This should be a great week for games. All 32 teams are playing.

Lions 31, Packers 23: Detroit finally having a good team saves Thanksgiving TV watching for mankind. The only thing that will keep this game close is a short week.

Cowboys 27, Commanders 17: Washington is due to play a good game, but Dallas is too good at home. This game should be worth watching for three quarters.

49ers 24, Seahawks 19: This should be the game of the day. San Francisco is back to playing the way it usually plays – very good. Seattle has the advantage of the “12’s”, but the 49ers talent should prevail.

Dolphins 17, Jets 13: The Fins’ defense has improved since Jalen Ramsey returned to the lineup. New York’s offensive problems are well known. Miami can’t lose this game if it considers itself to be Super Bowl contender – even if it is the road.

Saints 23, Falcons 20: If Atlanta is going to have any chance at making the postseason it has to win this game, especially since it is at home. The problem for the Falcons is that they are the Falcons – a franchise prone to underachieving and not playing well in big games. The Saints are the better team even without Michael Thomas. Look for New Orleans to come out strong after the bye.

Steelers 17, Bengals 10: Pittsburgh fired its offensive coordinator, but you may not see the difference this week. Cincinnati’s defense is capable of brilliance. The Bengals can’t win a close, physical game without Joe Burrow.

Jaguars 26, Texans 23: Houston has been a feel-good story this season, but this is a step up in class that it can’t handle. Jacksonville’s playoff experience should be the difference.

Colts 31, Buccaneers 20: Tampa Bay has struggled offensively lately. Indy has shown it can light up the scoreboard at home.

Patriots 20, Giants 16: These are two bad teams. I just can’t see New England coach Bill Belichick losing to a third-string QB despite his team’s offensive struggles.

Titans 28, Panthers 17: Both teams are playing struggling rookie QBs. I think Tennessee has the better supporting cast.

Rams 27, Cardinals 24: LA still has faint playoff aspirations. Arizona has played better lately, but it won’t be good enough.

Broncos 20, Browns 17: Sean Payton has Denver on a roll. The Cleveland has produced some magic lately, but most of it has happened on its home field.

Chiefs 34, Raiders 20: The Raiders have no chance after the Kansas City lost to Philadelphia.

Eagles 31, Bills 27: I guarantee Philadelphia will have at least one penalty is this game. Buffalo is the more desperate team, but the Eagles are too good at home.

Ravens 38, Chargers 31: The difference is this game will be the Chargers defense in a bad way. I just don’t see this unit coming up with enough plays to stop Baltimore.

Vikings 29, Bears 24: Remember when this used to be a great NFC North rivalry? Minnesota has rallied around Josh Dobbs at QB. Look for Dobbs to play better on the Vikings’ home field.
