The Vikings and Rams are my top plays this weekend.
Since firing John DeFlippo and promoting the old quarterbacks coach who’s been with the team for years, the Vikings offense has had a 25.2% more effective efficiency rate. One has to wonder if the Vikings would have already been penciled into a playoff spot if Stefanski was calling the plays during their draw against Green Bay in week 2, or the game in Seattle where they left tons of points on the table.
Regardless, I see this Vikings team hitting their stride at the right time. This is a different team than it was in weeks 1-14 and I see them as being 2-0 versus the 6-6-1 under DeFlippo.
On the other side, the Bears are not the Bears from early this season. Eddie Jackson one of the best safeties in the league this year is out for this game, while Bryce Callahan the best slot corner in the league is out for the year. A top slot corner is what is needed in today’s NFL to stop potent passing attacks. I didn’t fade Chicago last week with these injuries as I didn’t expect Nick Mullens and his receivers to be able to take advantage, but I have much more confidence Kirk Cousins, Stefon Diggs, Kyle Rudolph, and Kevin Stefanski will find the holes in this defense. Minnesota should win this game rather comfortably.

The Broncos look to close out a tough season here today. Their offense hasn't been much again this season, despite adding a new QB in Case Keenum. This Broncos team hasn't scored above 24 points in any of their last eight games. The 11-4 Chargers sit second in the AFC East despite having tied for the overall best record in the East. A win here today and there are still possibilities depending upon the Chiefs and Raiders outcome. A loss and they will be the 5th seed with likely the 2nd best record. It's highly unlikely that the Raiders can pull the upset, so realistically the Bolts have to figure on that top Wild Card spot and a road game in week one of the playoffs. Don't expect a lot of output here today from either team. LA has to figure they are a Wild Card team and the Broncos, well they are making tee times. Play the UNDER

This last week of the NFL regular season you have to look past numbers and figures and look for what motivates a team in this week. Some teams have the playoffs to look forward, while others (like these two) teams are just playing out the season. So why do I like my side so much here today? Simple. Aaron Rodgers has had a tough season. He's been injured, he's been hit hard all year and he's been without at times any decent receivers. This definitely not the type of season that Rodgers is used to having. I believe that he will want to finish this season strong and put his detractors doubts to rest. The Lions have one of the worst offenses in the NFL, they haven't been covering at all and Mathew Stafford has rumors surrounding him that he will be traded. Everything points to a Packers complete blowout here today. One of my favorite games of the season right here today is on the Packers.
