Quote:First, I want to thank D6 for getting this thread posted this past week when I could not do so in a timely manner.  Good job, D6.  On a related note, my apologies for not getting this posted earlier.  One other thing.  I will be out of town the week of Dec 14-20, so I will not likely post the week 16 This Week in the AFC South that week.  If I get the time, I may post it a week ahead of time, but I would not feel comfortable doing so because who knows what major injuries could happen in the interim to change the course of the game.  But I may.

 

Anyway...on to the games

 

Indianapolis
(8-4)  at Cleveland
(7-5)-The Trent Richardson bowl features two teams with comparable records that are in the playoff hunt but make no mistake,  Indy is in a different class than Cleveland.  The only thing that could keep this game close is bad weather in the dawg pound.  Colts
win 34-20.

 

Houston
(6-6) at Jacksonville
(2-10)-Houston continues its rebound season as they have already tripled their win total from their disastrous 2-14 2013 season.  Watt is playing at an insane level, and has 5 TDs this year.  Oh yeah, he also has 11.5 sacks this year and he's going up against a backup rookie RT making his first start.  Jacksonville got its second win of the season last week in a come from behind win against the G-Men.  Rookie QB Blake Bortles has taken a beating and is banged up.  Rookie WR Marqise Lee has made some strides and seems more confident.  Not sure that will be enough.  Houston
wins 23-14.

 

N.Y. Giants
(3-9) at Tennessee
(2-10)-After losing to the Jaguars last week, TC will likely not survive the year and the Giants-already losers of seven (7) straight, are in complete free fall.  If they can protect Manning, they have a chance to beat Tennessee.  I don't know if they can.  Tacks
win 21-17.
