You'll be alright as long as Derek Carr doesn't get injured too.

Steelers clinch the AFC North - what a game!!!

[Meanwood Villa]

So all the AFC spots are taken, now it's just sorting the seeding out. Chiefs could be 2, 5 or 6 depending on results next week. Daft that the Texans are guaranteed a home game while one of the Raiders and Chiefs won't get one but them's the rules.

Never mind the playoff drama, the important thing is that Jordan Howard set the rookie rushing record for Da Bears.

More than Red Grange, Bronko Nagurski, Gale Sayers, Walter Payton, Neal Anderson, Anthony Thomas, Thomas Jones, or Matt Forte.

Oh and a lot less carries than Forte, who did have the record.

Sewn up the 3rd pick in the draft.

On a serious note we've been dreadful in the last few weeks of the season.

Sounds like Kubiak will resign from the Broncos and Chuck Pagano may be booted from the Colts.

Fox @ Bears and Kelly at 49ers will be on thin ice too.

Kelly gone

How have the Rutgers Scarlet Knights done in college ball this year? You may recall my nominal association with them.

2-10 (including losing all nine of their conference/league games), so pretty rubbish

Two players from the University of Louisville missed the chance to play in the Citrus Bowl:

I'm a secret Detroit Lions fan due to living and studying in Michigan as an exchange student. My tip is that we beat the Seahawks in their back garden.

I think it's one of the more interesting games this weekend, Seahawks have looked pretty poor lately, inability to run the ball and even their Defence hasn't looked that great.

Matt Moore's Dolphins against Connor Cook's Raiders may be a defensive battle.

It may be if it were happening, but it isn't.  Here are the games and my picks:

Dolphins @ Steelers
Raiders @ Houston
Giants @ Green Bay
Lions @ Seahawks

Even as a Raiders fan, I know nothing about this bloke
