NFL Week 17 Picks


NFL Weekly Picks
: Week 17

Well, I predicted it a few weeks ago but now it seems like it was destiny..and what a shame it is that the 7-8 Chargers will battle the 8-7 Broncos to win the AFC West and secure the 4 seed in the playoffs. It's a disgrace to the game of football that it comes down to this and one of these teams will get into the postseason. Especially when you consider where the Chargers were a few weeks ago during the Kansas City game in what was by far the flukiest win of the year by any team.

The rest of the week's games, however, provides us with one of the most exciting final Sundays in recent memory. I can't remember a time where so many playoff spots and playoff seeds were on the line. Not only that but all the different scenarios that need to take place for certain teams to get in. So get ready football fans! It's almost certain to be a Sunday to remember. In the mean time, here are Rick and I's picks based on the line as always.
