The last week of the NFL season can be exciting for many coaches, players, organizations and their fans on the possibilities of the unknown, and what is ahead in the playoffs. For all those teams that are on pins and needles, standing outside and peeking over the fence hoping to get in the dance on a last week’s win and losses as other teams hold their fate, makes this weekend’s games fun when it comes down to the wire.
The following are a few of the games to keep an eye on. The Cowboys on the road at the New York Giants will be very interesting and holds division and playoff implications. San Francisco needs this win to give them a first-round bye. Detroit has a good chance of beating the Packers in Lambeau Field. Cincinnati is battling to get in the playoffs, while begging their fans to come out and cheer them on against the mighty Ravens, who want to finish strong heading into the playoffs. And finally, the Colts’ dilemma on the No. 1 overall pick: don’t play all your starters to ensure some Luck for the future, or secure the job of the head coach and play your hearts out for his job. Crazy times!
