NFL PICKS FOR WEEK 17

Here we are at the final week of the season, and I'm wondering where did it go. I feel like this season has flown by, and I can't believe we're already here.

Lions
Packers
There's nothing to play for with the Packers, so I imagine their starters won't play too much.  For the Lions, a win secures the fifth seed and a game with Dallas or New York, and not a game with San Francisco or New Orleans.  I'm going with Detroit to pick up the win and get that fifth seed.

49ers 
Rams
The 49ers still have a shot to earn that number two seed in the NFC, and have beaten up the Rams in previous meetings. I can't see the Rams putting up a fight in this game, go with San Fran.

Jets 
Dolphins
The Jets have much more to play for, but would still need a lot of help to make the playoffs. I think the Dolphins would love to play spoiler, and I'm going with the Dolphins.

Bears 
Vikings
Both teams have no chance to be in the playoffs.  A win for the Vikings makes their draft position go up, so do they want a win? The Bears just derailed after losing their quarterback and running back.  Hard to pick here, and might as well flip a coin.  Coin flip says Bears.

Bills
Patriots
At the beginning of the season, this was looking like a fantastic match up.  But now, I see the Patriots running all over the Bills, and it won't be pretty.
Patriots


Panthers
Saints
The Saints don't have much to play for, and I feel like the Panthers have come on in games, so I like the Panthers here.

Redskins
Eagles
This is another coin flip game.  The Eagles did make this late season push, but truly weren't what they were expected to be.  The Redskins started out well, but faltered in the middle, and don't look to be any threat any time soon.
Eagles


Colts
Jaguars
The Colts have been on a roll the past two games, and I believe they make it three in a row.  
Colts


Titans
Texans
Titans would need some help to set up a rematch in the wildcard against slumping Houston, but desperate times lead to desperate measures, and I like the Titans here.

Buccaneers
Falcons
The Falcons look to be rolling at the right time, and I can't see Tampa Bay putting up a fight.  Falcons get the win here easily.
Falcons


Ravens
Bengals
Ravens want to prove they are a force in the AFC, and it should get some momentum for the playoffs.  Look for the Ravens to claw up the Bengals.
Ravens


Steelers 
Browns
Steelers need the win here and a Ravens loss to lock up the number two seed, if not they are 5th seed, and playing in the wildcard round. Look for the Steelers to help themselves and get a win here.
Steelers


Chiefs
Broncos
Tebow versus Orton. Two guys fighting for quarterback in Denver now face each other. Funny how that worked out.  If the Broncos defense shows up and Tebow manages to win like he was before, then Broncos win here.
Broncos


Chargers 
Raiders
I would like to go with my Super Bowl pick, the Chargers, but they haven't played up to expectations as the season wore on. I can't imagine Norv Turner being brought back as coach, and I think the Raiders take care of this game.
Raiders


Seahawks
Cardinals
Which bird team wants this win more?  Both teams came on towards the end, but it didn't matter.  Coin flip, and the flip says Seahawks.
Seahawks


Cowboys
Giants
Which team wants to win the NFC East?  From the way both teams have been playing, neither one wants to win it.  But I think the Giants pull it together for this game, and get to the playoffs.  What they do there is anyone's guess.
Giants
