It's rare to get such a wonderful present as loads of football games on Christmas Eve.

While you're spending time with you televisions, remember you have families that need attention, too.

Merry Christmas Eve and Happy Holidays to everyone.


Game of the Week - Saturday December, 24
NYG @ NYJ | New York Giants - Eli. Eli. Eli. When it matters, he always shows up. Should be a great game.

Thu, Dec 22
HOU @ IND | Houston - Houston is one of the few playoff teams going in with a third string QB. I'd say upset, but it's the 1-(ton-o-losses) Colts

Sat, Dec 24
MIA @ NE | New England - No spoiling Belichick's Christmas this year.
CLE @ BAL | Baltimore - Terrell Suggs graduated from Ball So Hard University, remember?
ARI @ CIN | Cincinnati - The Cardinals have 7 wins. The Bengals have 8. Toss up.
MIN @ WAS | Washington - I'm still on board the Christian Ponder train, but not this week. Redskins win.
DEN @ BUF | Denver - The Tebow train gets back on track this week.
STL @ PIT | Pittsburgh - Big Ben or not, the Rams are terrible.
TB @ CAR | Carolina - Cam and co. have looked "not so bad" lately. Keeping the picks to a minimum.
JAC @ TEN | Tennessee - I feel really weary picking the Titans, but, I'm doing it anyway.
OAK @ KC | Kansas City - Picking this anticipating
SD @ DET | Detroit - I went back and forth with this one, then I remembered Matt Stafford is healthy and he's still got Megatron to throw to.
PHI @ DAL | Dallas - Philly has caught fire, but Romo is thee hottest Qb in the league since Week 9. That includes, Brady, Rodgers and Brees.
SF @ SEA | San Francisco - Almost sold on the 49ers, but...not yet. Let's see them come playoff time.

Sun, Dec 25
CHI @ GB | Green Bay - I want so badly to pick McCown over the Packers, but, I'm just being a realist.

Mon, Dec 26
ATL @ NO | Atlanta - Upset special a week late. Atlanta is hot, and they have the perfect counter to New Orleans--an offense that can control the clock. Not to mention, they'll be playing in a dome, feeling right at home.

Thanks for reading guys.
