So I'm a little late since I missed the Thursday game (Christmas Shopping) but here are my predictions for this week.
We all kind of knew the Chargers were going to win.
Cleveland @ Cincinnati
Cleveland by 14
Washington @ Dallas
Dallas by 10 (but who cares, I mean really they are both kind of bad)
Houston @ Tennessee
Houston by 7
Jacksonville @ Indianapolis
Jacksonville by 17
Kansas City @ St. Louis
Saint Louis by 3
Buffalo @ Miami
Buffalo by 10
Detroit @ Tampa Bay
Tampa by 4
Arizona @ Carolina
Arizona by 3 (again, who really cares though)
New Orleans @ Baltimore
Baltimore by 14
Philadelphia @ New York Giants
Philly by 24
Atlanta @ Seattle
Atlanta by 10
New York Jets @ Pittsburgh
Pitt by 17
Denver @ Oakland
Tim Tebow's first start is a win (and good for him...no really...this one isn't a joke, Tebow is a monster)
Green Bay @ New England
New England by an undetermined number because Rodgers is out and their defense is week in the secondary where Brady will be able to exploit all of that. (Basically I'm saying that I don't want to count that high right now)
Chicago @ Minnesota (Outdoors @ University of Minnesota)
Vikes win by a lot considering Chicago's lack of production in the snow for the last couple of weeks.

The End of an Era
The all fabled streak has come to an end as future Hall of Fame Quarterback Brett Favre has failed to start in his game this week for the first time since 1992 which ended the active streak at 297 games. Brett Favre has started every game that his teams have had since week 4 in 1992 and is the record holder for almost every NFL record for Quarterbacks in the book.
Favre currently sits with the record for Most Completed Passes in a Career with 6,083, Most Yards Gained in a Career with 69,329, Most Seasons with 3,000 or more Yards Passing with 18, Most Seasons leading the League in Touchdowns with 4, Most Touchdown Passes Career with 497, Most Career Games with Four or More Touchdowns with 23, Most Career Interceptions Thrown with 317, and finished in second place for all time games played to Jeff Feagles (P) and honestly to the Punters really count.
The last time Favre didn't start, my younger sister was two years old, and I had never held a football. I could never dream personally of putting together a career such as this (except in Madden). The accomplishments that Brett has accumulated will no doubt earn him a first ballot Hall of Fame election, but are almost too numerous to list so I will try but if I miss some numbers, don't hold it against me.
Favre Has made 10,162 pass attempts in his 20 year career, completing 6295 passes for 71,775 yards and 507 touchdowns. His current career passer rating is an 86.0 and Favre has thrown 335 interceptions, and lost 111 fumbles. Favre does have a 99 yard long touchdown pass with a 7.1 yard average pass play. Favre did rush for 1844 yards on 601 attempts with 14 rushing touchdowns and a long play of 40 yards. And now for something completely different, Brett did catch 2 passes in his career with -7 career yards and a 2 yard long play.
As pointed out by Stuart Scott on ESPN, fittingly the #1 song on the Billboard Top 100 was "End of the Road" by Boyz II Men. Was the career of one of the greatest Quarterbacks to ever play the game ended on a fluke hit by the Buffalo Bills? Only time will tell...

Rest of the NFL Season Predictions
Hey Everybody. I am having some time issues that are preventing me from writing every week so I want to post some predictions for the rest of the season.
First Place Predictions
AFC East-Patriots
AFC North-Steelers
AFC West-Chargers
AFC South-Jaguars
NFC East-Eagles
NFC North-Packers
NFC West-Seahawks
NFC South-Falcons
Wild Card Teams
NFC 1-Saints
NFC 2-Buccaneers
AFC 1-Ravens
AFC 2-Chiefs
BOLD PREDICTIONS
Cincinnati finishes in last place in the NFL (Yes it pains me to say that) They will not win another game this season.
The Atlanta Falcons are going to finish in first place in the NFC and will have home field advantage through the playoffs (which based on recent history means that they will make the Super Bowl)
The New England Patriots will run the table and will not lose another game until the Super Bowl.
The Houston Texans will finish above the Colts in their division.
The New York Jets will not win more than 1 more game this season.
I think that the Falcons will win the Super Bowl this year.
As always, email me or find me on twitter if you have questions.
