Find out which NFL teams are on upset alert in Week 16.
After sleeping through a Thursday Night Football snoozer that had absolutely no impact on the playoff picture, NFL fans are craving the rest of the games that are on tap for Week 16 of the 2014 NFL season.
Looking at the slate of games for this weekend, there arenāt many matchups that jump out at me as potential upset picks, but there are two games that do interest me, and thatās the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. the Kansas City Chiefs, and the St. Louis Rams hosting the New York Giants.
The Steelers-Chiefs game should especially interest NFL fans, as both squads are currently in second place in their respected divisions, meaning that this game has huge playoff implications for both sides.
With that, we dig into these two games.

Pittsburgh Steelers (-3.0) vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Thereās no doubt that the Steelers enter this Week 16 matchup playing better football as of late, but Pittsburghās inconsistency is what makes me think the Chiefs have a great chance on Sunday.
The Steelers have surrendered nine rushing scores this season, and the way Jamaal Charles is playing here in 2014, I expect that number to go up following this weekend. Charles has nine TDs of his own this seasonābest for No. 3 in the leagueāand had one of his best games againstĀ a premiere rushing defense.
Youāll remember that Charles shredded the Seattle Seahawksā defense to the tune of 159 yards and two scores, so forgive me if I donāt foresee Pittsburghās No. 11 D against the rush doing much better.
One thing that the Steelers do have going for them is that they boast the leagueās second-best passing offense, but the Chiefs will be able to combat that with their No. 2 ranked pass defense.
Kansas City is currently on the outside looking in on the playoffsātheyāre currently No. 7 in the seedingāand I think thatās the driving force behind the Chiefsā win this weekend.
Also, for you bettors out there, the Chiefs are 11-5 against the spread in their last 16 road games.
Call me ballsy. Iām going with the Chiefs.

St. Louis Rams (-5.0) vs. New York Giants
This matchup may not have any playoff implications, but itās certainly a game that you wonāt want to miss.
I was at the Giantsā game last weekend, and believe me when I say this: Odell Beckham Jr. is the real deal.
In a mere 10 games played this season, Beckham has already garnered 71 receptions for 972 yards and nine touchdownsāincluding three trips to the end zone against the Washington Redskins last weekend.

In regards to the matchup against the St. Louis Rams, the Rams have a solid pass defense, but even some of the best passing defenses in the league (Seattle) couldnāt contain the dynamic rookie receiver.
Also, the G-Menās defense has really amped it up in the last three games, racking up 22 sacks during that time, which means Shaun Hill should be on the lookout. Jason Pierre-Paul has been the driving force behind the Giantsā defensive resurgence, amassing six sacks in hisĀ last three games.
If New York can contain Tre Mason and continue its torrid pace of haunting opposing quarterbacks, all signs point to a three-game win streak for Big Blue.
Count on it.
