4-10. WSH -2.5. 4 p.m. ET. 87. FOX. Sunday, Dec. 27. 6-8. 58

Don’t expect the Mona Lisa of football games. That said, Washington knows a win plus a Giants loss in Baltimore means a home playoff game. Expect the Football Team to come out with enough vigor to beat the reeling Panthers.

Pick: Washington 21, Carolina 18

5-9. Sunday, Dec. 27. 5-9. 13. LAC -3. 4 p.m. ET. 45. CBS

The last two weeks in Denver are about figuring out if Drew Lock is the long-term future. He’s not, but the Broncos are still making the decision.

Pick: Los Angeles 27, Denver 22

51. FOX. 36. SEA -1.5. 9-5. Sunday, Dec. 27. 10-4. 4:25 p.m. ET

This is the most important game of the year for both teams, and it’s being overlooked because the Rams somehow lost to the Jets. Knowing the NFL, Los Angeles will rebound well, Seattle will sleepwalk for a quarter, and it’ll be the difference.

Pick: Los Angeles 23, Seattle 21

4-9-1. 54. 5-9. 123. FOX. Sunday, Dec. 27. PHI -2.5. 4:25 p.m. ET

No.

Pick: Philadelphia 33, Dallas 24

GB -3.5. NBC. Sunday, Dec. 27. 49. 8:20 p.m. ET. 10-4. 35. 11-3

Most entertaining game on the slate. Neither one of these teams play defense. Tennessee has the fewest sacks and worst third-down rate. Green Bay has one corner and no ability to stop the run. Look for a ton of points.

Pick: Green Bay 34, Tennessee 31

47. 8:15 p.m. ET. 16. Monday, Dec. 28. ESPN. 6-8. BUF -7. 11-3

New England will play tough at home, against a divisional opponent and in primetime, but the Bills are a much better team.

Pick: Buffalo 27, New England 20

Last Week: 11-5
Season: 151-72-1
