NFL Expert Picks: Week 14

Our panel makes our picks for the week.

We’re deep in the run to the playoffs and things are getting tight. There’s still no way to know how everything will shake out in the playoff picture, with there still being some ludicrous scenarios where ever the likes of the 3-9 Panthers could make the postseason.

That said, we have a pretty good idea of how things will shake out. Arguably the biggest game of the week comes on Thursday night with the Packers and Lions facing off in the NFC North. It’s a critical game for Green Bay’s playoff chances, while also effectively giving the Lions an opportunity to shut the door on the Vikings and claim the conference.

Meanwhile in the AFC the game to watch this week is Chargers vs. Chiefs. Los Angeles has been sneaky good this season, and needs a win to try and find a backdoor into the playoffs. Kansas City just wants to make sure all roads in the playoffs go through Arrowhead, making it a must-watch.

Here are our picks in Week 14:
