Hello, football fans! What a treat week 13 has been already. Chicago being a Super Bowl contender certainly wasn’t on my bingo card but football is like a box of chocolates. Delicious. The action continues with a selection of seven games at 12pm CST/1pm EST/6pm GMT (home teams listed first):

• (6-6) Carolina Panthers v Los Angeles Rams (9-2)

• (3-8) Cleveland Browns v San Francisco 49ers (8-4)

• (8-3) Indianapolis Colts v Houston Texans (6-5)

• (4-7) Miami Dolphins v New Orleans Saints (2-9)

• (2-9) New York Jets v Atlanta Falcons (4-7)

• (6-5) Tampa Bay Buccaneers v Arizona Cardinals (3-8)

• (1-10) Tennessee Titans v Jacksonville Jaguars (7-4)

The upsets came thick and fast through Thanksgiving and Black Friday so what are the chances we have a few more shocks? Let’s take a walk with the Tennessee Titans. They played Seattle close last week. A garbage time score gilded the lily somewhat but rookie quarterback Cam Ward had the best came of his young career. So today just may be that little bit better. The Ward breakout game is coming. Jacksonville have to avoid complacency or they risk coming a cropper to that fiendish old devil: the curse of S’posed to*. The Jags will be expecting to beat the Titans relatively easily. Yet there is a decent amount of pressure with Kansas City losing to Dallas on Thursday as a win keeps their postseason destiny firmly in their control. One game at a time and all that but if Tennessee can burst out of the traps all bets could be off. Let’s see shall we.
