The Prophet's Picks

The final Thursday night Football game of the year was just blah, lol. Yet I survived the torture of an extremely horrible prime time game. My prediction was Sea. winning in Chi-town 37-20. Neither team could muster one single touchdown as the actual final was 6-3 Sea. winning & improving (if you can call it that), to 9-7 on the year. Seattle needs Los Angeles to lose Saturday night to the Car...

Joran Love and his Packers earned a playoff berth with their blowout win against the abysmal N.O. Saints 0-34 in Green Bay Wisconsin. My prediction was G.B. winning 22-32.
