We might look back and realize that the winner of Super Bowl LX was actually determined during a monumental NFC West clash in Week 16.That’s how big the second meeting this season between the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks could be. There is a very good chance that the No. 1 seed in the NFC will come from one of these two teams, both of which are 11-3. And the team that wins will have pole position with two games left.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementOn top of that, as the season has gone on, most rankings have placed the Seahawks and Rams as the two best teams in the NFL, in some order. It’s arguable that this is the best game of the entire NFL regular season, unless that title went to the first meeting between the teams.Matthew Stafford and the Rams beat […]

Week 16 NFL against-the-spread picks, predictions for every game: Bears and Packers set for huge clash
The Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers might be going in different directions. Everyone might realize it after Saturday night.The Bears have played much better the past three weeks, perhaps due to the natural progression of picking up Ben Johnson's scheme. That included a very competitive loss at Green Bay two weeks ago. Maybe if that game was in Chicago, it would have gone the other way. Or if the Packers didn't have their best player.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementGreen Bay has a problem that will linger the rest of its season. The Packers won't be the same without Micah Parsons, who is out for the rest of the season due to a torn ACL. They can't replace his 12.5 sacks or the attention that other offenses pay to him. Opponents had to game plan around a talent like Parsons, and that's no longer […]
