The predictions here come from Adam and correspond to his picks in the remaining games.

Dallas Cowboys at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Buccaneers have been so awful lately that despite Raheem Moriss' success last year, there is already serious talk about a new coach in Tampa.  The Cowboys have trouble finishing games, but this one shouldn't be tight in the fourth quarter.

Prediction: Cowboys 31 – Buccaneers 20

Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills
Tony Sparano is out, and now everyone on the Dolphins knows they are playing for their jobs.  I'll take the slightly less tumultuous Buffalo Bills' situation for the win.

Prediction: Bills 20 – Dolphins 19

Seattle Seahawks at Chicago Bears
Seattle actually has something to play for, albeit their playoff hopes are very slim.  The Bears are reeling without Matt Forte and with Caleb Hanie proving to be far from a legitimate starting quarterback.  I'll take Seattle as the more stable team right now to ride Marshawn Lynch to an ugly win.

Prediction: Seahawks 16 – Bears 13

Carolina Panthers at Houston Texans
The Texans’ defense has been fantastic, and TJ Yates looks comfortable in the pocket.  Yates can move the chains in the passing game, and the Texans' running attack is dominant.  Texans win.

Prediction: Texans 27 – Panthers 20

Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts
The Colts are simply awful, and I see 0-16 as nearly inevitable.  Against a Titans team desperate for every win, there's no chance this is a trap game.  Chris Johnson and Matt Hasselbeck are enough for the win.

Prediction: Titans 24 – Colts 14

Green Bay Packers at Kansas City Chiefs
Unless Aaron Rodgers gets hurt, there is no way this game is even close, no matter the status of injured Greg Jennings.  The Chiefs have no firepower and their head coach just got canned.  Blowout city.

Prediction: Packers 38 – Chiefs 17

New Orleans Saints at Minnesota Vikings
Under a dome, Drew Brees will thrive.  Whether it's home or away doesn't matter, especially against the Vikings’ terrible secondary.

Prediction: Saints 38 – Vikings 17

Washington Redskins at New York Giants
Eli Manning would be an MVP candidate in any other year, but Aaron Rodgers has all but wrapped up that award.  Still, Manning has been great, the Giants have to have every game, and the Skins just can't score enough points to keep up.

Prediction: Giants 24 – Redskins 16

Cincinnati Bengals at St. Louis Rams
Just what the doctor ordered for the struggling Bengals: a trip to St. Louis.

Prediction:  Bengals 24 – Rams 10

Detroit Lions at Oakland Raiders
I don't trust either team, but I guess I'll ride with Calvin Johnson and Matt Stafford over the turnover-prone Carson Palmer.  Getting Ndamukong Suh back should be an emotional boost as well.

Prediction:  Lions 27 – Raiders 24

Cleveland Browns at Arizona Cardinals
The Browns suck.  The Cardinals suck a little less.

Prediction: Cardinals 17 – Browns 10

New England Patriots at Denver Broncos
Tim Tebow has been good in the last few minutes of games, but for that to keep happening, the Broncos’ defense has to keep things tight.  The Patriots will run away with this early, and no Tebow magic can save the day.

Prediction: Patriots 30 – Broncos 16

New York Jets at Philadelphia Eagles
I don’t have a feel for either of these teams.  Give me the Jets with more on the line playoff-wise.

Prediction: Jets 23 – Eagles 20

Baltimore Ravens at San Diego Chargers
I'm going to take a flyer on Phillip Rivers here.  The Chargers are still alive in the AFC West, and somehow they always make a run late.

Prediction: Chargers 23 – Ravens 21

Pittsburgh Steelers at San Francisco 49ers
The Niners have been great at home, they need this game to keep hold of the 2 seed, and I think in a defensive struggle, David Akers’ kicking will be the difference.

Prediction: 49ers 19 – Steelers 16
