Merry Christmas people!

This 2019 NFL prognostication contest between myself and Mr. Watts is as usual shaping up to be a battle that will probably come down to the final weekend.

In Week 15 we both tied  with identical 10-6 records, and we're tied in the overall standings.   I'm kicking myself because I originally had the Bills beating the Steelers, then changed the pick before I locked it in.

The Texans redeemed themselves by winning a hard fought 24-21 game against the Tennessee Traitors in Nashville to take control of the AFC South race.   Hopefully the Texans will give the city of Houston an early Christmas present by clinching the division and a playoff berth with a win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Meanwhile the bandwagon riding Harris County Arlington Cowchip fans took their jerseys out of the  closet after they blew out the Rams 44-21 at Jerryworld to end a three game losing streak and beat a team with a winning record for the first time in the 2019 season. 

That sets up a winner take all NFC East showdown game with the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday in which the loser will probably be out of the playoffs.     

Let's get to this week's picks.  had two extra days to ponder them since we have three Saturday games on the schedule.   My picks will be in bold red print with Mike's Week 16 picks here at this link.
