With Buffalo having to postpone this past M.N.F. game against the Bengals, it's a great thing that they defeated the Patriots in the first meeting. Josh Allen and Bills will try to beat Mac Jones and his Patriots somehow in the wake of the tragic Damar Hamlin injury from Monday night. The Patriots are coming off a win however and this is the 127th installment of this division series.

The Panthers won their first meeting against the Saints this season. Andy Dalton leads New Orleans this final NFL Sunday while Sam Darnold leads the Carolina Panthers. This will be the 57th installment of this NFC South rivalry as the Saints are coming off a road win and the Panthers are coming off a road loss in week XVII.

The Houston Texans will finish the season on the road to face their rivals, the Indianapolis Colts. Both teams eliminated from postseason contention and the first game ended in a tie. The 43rd installment of this series is a Texas 2 quarterback system vs. Sam Ehlinger of the Colts, getting his 2nd career start in the season finale'.

The Jets are eliminated from the 2023 tournament and in this 115th installation of this series rivalry the Dolphins can be eliminated too if they lose. Miami lost in New York earlier this season 17-40. Skylar Thompson vs. Joe Flacco gets the final start of the season, in this final AFC East division meeting will be seriously interesting as it is seriously important.

This is the 143rd installment of this series. Pittsburgh lost to Cleveland in the first meeting of the season series. However this is Kenny Pickett's first time playing against the Browns defense in his career. The Browns will have DeShaun Watson facing off against a potential playoff Steelers defense to end the season and this is Watson's first time seeing the Steelers as the Browns franchise quarterback this season.

Tampa Bay leads this series 30-28 overall against the Falcons. All regular season games, Tom Brady and his Buccs are in the 2023 tournament and all Desmond Ridder and Atlanta can do is play spoiler in this 59th installation of this division rivalry. Tampa Bay won their home game vs. Atlanta earlier in the season.

The 57th installment in this series will happen on Saturday night and hopefully Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin is out of critical condition and recovering.

The Damar Hamlin situation is still critical and serious, and I honestly don't know what the NFL will do for week XVIII. If the game is played the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes II will face the Raiders and Jarrett Stidham in the AFC West. The Chiefs lead the series 71-54-2 overall including the M.N.F. thriller earlier this season.

Last night was supposed to be the results of a highly anticipated week XVII M.N.F. game between Cincinnati and Buffalo. However, the shocking, disturbing injury to Buffalo Bills safety #3 Damar Hamlin has shook the entire NFL community and today, the world. We're sending up prayers continously and consistently for the expedited healing and recovery of 24 year old Damar Hamlin.

Mercifully I was right last night thanks to the Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett, it and not rookie wideout George Pickens but this time 2nd year running back Najee' Harris. I am now 11-6 on Sunday Night Football predictions. My overall record on the year now is 152-96-2. The Pttsburgh Steelers with their win on last night still playoff eligible for the tournament this month and Baltimore is left reeling. Hoping to see their nemesis again later this month.
