This week is critical for a lot of bubble teams trying to find a way into the playoffs. We really have two must-wins on Thursday with the Packers and Lions, as well as the Chiefs and Cowboys needing to win to keep their playoff chances alive. The big issue in the NFC is that the NFC West is so strong in 2025 that we could see three teams get in, which means the Packers, Lions, and Cowboys will need to battle to try and unseat the 49ers or Seahawks to find a way in.
These are our pick for Week 13.
