NFL 2017

[Midwest Spy]

This week’s NFL Power Rankings finally have it right (IMO).

1. Eagles
2. Patriots
3. Steelers
4. Vikings
5. Saints
6. Rams
7. Jaguars
8. Panthers
9. Falcons
10. Seahawks

I’m not as high on Jacksonville or Seattle, however, this is about as accurate as I’ve seen ESPN get for a given week.

Unfortunately, the NFC has 5 or 6 teams that could make a run in January while the AFC is down to 2 (with KC falling off).

My Vikes play 3 straight winning teams on the road coming up. Not liking it.

Lions have won 4 straight on Thanksgiving and have beaten us 3 straight overall.

I think the Chargers are going to beat Dallas on Thursday. My gut tells me your Vikes take the Lions and the NFCE battle for the gutter is a toss up.

Smart money on all 3 road teams?

Why not?

Skins have played 2 tough games in a row against quality opponents, and now they’ll lay an egg against a lesser squad.

Cowboys are a disaster with no LT and LB along with Zeke.

And, Minny is due to have a tight game with the Lions go our way for a change.
