Matt Ufford and the Uffsides crew preview the five best games of Week 15 in the NFL, including:
NFL Week 15 preview: Every team is bad, even the Cowboys
In this week’s episode, the guys discuss Jeff Fisher’s firing, the Seahawks’ color rush uniforms, Ben McAdoo’s Radio Shack, Tom Brady’s hissy fits, the monkey that wore a coat in IKEA, Cam Newton’s brunch clothes, and why every team in the NFL is terrible.
Seahawks-Rams: The Rams became the first team to fire a coach less than 80 hours before their next game since who knows when. Russell Wilson is coming off one of the worst three-game stretches any QB has had over the last few years. Should be another Thursday night thriller (can flip to TNT late for Warriors-Knicks).
Giants-Lions: Even if they were in danger against Matt Barkley, the Lions somehow won again, with 15 wins now in the 22 games Jim Bob Cooter has captained the offensive ship. Matthew Stafford may win MVP (because everybody sucks), but he’ll have a mangled right middle finger and will have to do it all himself since Steve Spagnuolo will lose zero seconds of sleep worrying about Dwayne Washington and Zach Zenner. If only Detroit had a ground game to give Stafford a hand (sorry).
Broncos-Patriots: Von Miller might win MVP (because everybody sucks), and New England has struggled when traveling to Denver for years. The Pats can get close to wrapping up the AFC’s top seed with a win, while the Broncos desperately need a win if they want to play beyond New Year’s.
Cowboys-Buccaneers: The Bucs have the league’s top scoring defense over their last five games (64 points allowed, no one else below 78). With Dak Prescott stumbling a bit on Sunday night, this’ll be an awfully big chance to go out and totally redeem himself.
Washington-Panthers: Josh Norman gets to square off against his old pals from Charlotte in a ballgame that Washington’s gotta get to stay alive in the postseason hunt. Carolina doesn’t gotta get it to stay alive in the postseason hunt.
