With just a few more weeks before we put a nail in this season the playoff picture is much more difficult to gauge compared to previous years. With four games left, only the Philadelphia Eagles and the San Francisco 49ers have clinched a playoff spot. There are plenty of division games this week that’ll give us a better idea of who to expect will be around come January.

Miami Dolphins (8-5) @ Buffalo Bills (10-3)
O/U 42 / Bills -7
With a win in Buffalo, Miami will be only a game back from Buffalo in the late race in the AFC East. Both teams have elite passing offenses (besides the last two weeks for Tua) and great passing defenses, but given the snowy weather expected, this game will need to be won on the ground. Can the Dolphins stand up to the division test in the cold?

Detroit Lions (6-7) @ New York Jets (7-6)
O/U 44.5 / DET -1
The Lions are on a six game win streak and only a game back from a wild card spot in the NFC. On the other hand, the Jets have slowed down quite a bit since their fiery start and are in danger of falling out of the playoff picture. This is a prove it game, and wins against these teams don’t come easy. Expect some gritty play in this must win game.

New York Giants (7-5-1) @ Washington Commanders (7-5-1)
O/U 40.5 / Commanders -4.5
Speaking of must win games, Sunday Night Football hosts a division match up between two teams that are currently holding two of three wildcard spots. These two tied a couple weeks back, in a 20-20 bruiser. The Giants looked injured and exposed last week whereas the Commanders are coming off their bye week healthy and back from winning three of their last four games.

Los Angeles Rams (4-9) @ Green Bay Packers (5-8)
O/U 39.5 / Packers -7
Two of the most disappointing teams this season face off Monday Night. With no real playoff implications, this should be a snooze fest. The Rams seemed to open an eye with Baker Mayfield at quarterback and we may have a chance at seeing Jordan Love who played a great quarter of football against the Eagles, so there is that. Spend some time with your family during this one.
