The Chippers Top 5
St. Louis Rams (5-6-1) vs. Buffalo Bills (5-7)
The Rams are coming off a tough OT win and could be sluggish, but they match up well against the Buffalo Bills. Sam Bradford should have time to work if the O-Line can put together another strong performance. The Ram’s D should hold their own and force a TO or two.
Prediction: Rams 24 Bills 23
Chicago Bears (8-4) vs. Minnesota Vikings (6-6)
This game will come down to Adrian Peterson – it has to for the Vikings to win. The defense will be chomping at the bit to get revenge. TE Kyle Rudolph is a real matchup issues for the Bears. Being home is huge for the Vikes where they are 5-1. Just give AP the damn ball!
Prediction: Vikings 21 Bears 17
Baltimore Ravens (9-3) vs. Washington Redskins (6-6)
Neither team is really healthy, but Baltimore is the better team. The Ravens haven’t lost back to back games in 3 years. As impressive as RGIII is, the Ravens still have a great D and Joe Flacco should be able to tear up the Redskins terrible pass defense.
Prediction: Ravens 33 Redskins 31
New York Jets (5-7) vs. Jacksonville Jaguars (2-10)
Neither of these teams is any good, but one has to win so why not take the home team….forgive me Bob.
Prediction: Jaguars 12 Jets 6
Atlanta Falcons (11-1) vs. Carolina Panthers (3-9)
Cam Newton presents a special challenge to any defense. This is a tougher test than the Falcons think. Atlanta has clinched the NFC South and I smell a perfect upset in the making.
Prediction: Panthers 30 Falcons 28

I hope that you’re enjoying this year’s round of PigSkinGolf and are spreading the word about this truly unique game and fun way to win some good cash!
Sorry to say that there weren’t any winners on the 13th hole - also, we’re down to only 3 entries left on the $1,000 2nd Chance PSG Survivor Pool Contest. I bet the two of you that had Dallas were sweatin it out. There’s very little chance that someone is going to win the $1,000 so because I’m in the Holiday spirit, I’m offering $100 to each of the remaining entries right now and the Survivor game will be over. I’ll give you until the deadline on Thursday the 6th to let me know….That’s right – a guarenteed $100 in your pocket or risk the next four weeks and possibly make a wrong choice and get what the little boy shot at and hit – Nothin!!….Good luck!!
It’s the 14th Hole coming up and it’s a medium par 4 that doesn’t look very challenging. I’m sure the scores will be low this week. Pay attention to the Monday Nite Game (Houston @ NE) because those games are used in the tie-breaking calculations for prizes.
Another Thursday Night Game and that means the deadline for that game only is 7:00 Central, 8:00 Eastern. The rest of the games are at Noon Central, 1:00 Eastern on Sunday. That includes the Sunday and Monday Night games.
Before the 18th Hole, I’ll be sending out a survey to everyone who signed up this year to get your valuable feedback on various topics. Your input really drives how this game looks and plays. I’ve used numerous ideas from you the players over the last couple of years so I encourage you to participate. I’m thinking that a couple of random participants may win an entry for next year so be watching for the survey from Survey Monkey.
That’s it for now…..keep it in short grass and Good Luck!!

Hole # 13 Recap:
Prediction: Bears 21 Seahawks 10 Loss - These two “Bruising” defenses gave up a total of 817 yards from scrimmage (308 rushing) and a total of 47 first downs. An OT thriller, the Hawks get a rare W on the road.
Prediction: Jets 10 Cardinals 0 Win - The “San-Chise” gets pulled in the 2nd qtr for poor performance. They should have pulled both teams in this bore-fest.
Prediction: Browns 24 Raiders 17 Win – The Browns put up a balanced attack with 353 yds passing and 122 yds rushing as they break a 12 games road losing streak in Oakland.
Prediction: Chargers 27 Bengals 24 Loss – Looks like the Bolts are mailing it in and don’t hope to get a win on the road this week in Pittsburgh.
Prediction: Redskins 31 Giants 27 Win – Are the G-Men saving some for the home stretch? The Skins pull to within one game in the NFC East with the win as RGIII shows he’s worthy of the MVP award for 2012.
Total for the week: 3 – 2. Total for the Year: 39 – 26.
Chipper’s Top 5 coming up tomorrow night. Be watchin….

The Chipper’s Top 5
Seattle Seahawks vs. Chicago Bears
Seahawks on the road? Record: 1 – 5. Bears win.
Prediction: Bears 21 Seahawks 10
Arizona Cardinals vs. New York Jets
The Jets can still do one thing relatively well, and that’s stop the pass. Arizona won’t be able to move the ball through the air.
Prediction: Jets 10 Cardinals 0
Cleveland Browns vs. Oakland Raiders
The Raiders are in the midst of a massive rebuilding project, while the Browns are playing hard trying to convince new ownership they don’t need to be blown up. No matter if it’s Brandon Weeden or Colt McCoy under center, the Browns are the more talented team and get it done on the road for once.
Prediction: Browns 24 Raiders 17
Cincinnati Bengals vs. San Diego Chargers
The Chargers haven’t beaten a team other than Kansas City since Week 2, but there’s never a bad time to get a win.
Prediction: Chargers 27 Bengals 24
New York Giants vs. Washington Redskins
The Giants looked revived against the Packers, but the Redskins won’t back down and will match the G-Men blow for blow. Their phenom rookie quarterback will make a play at the end.
Prediction: Redskins 31 Giants 27

Hole # 12 Recap:
Prediction: Lions 30 Texans 27 Loss – The Lions had this game. The NFL needs to change that stupid rule. Nice game by Matt Stafford though in the loss.
Prediction: Bears 24 Vikings 17 Win – What a difference a Jay Cutlet makes for the Bears.
Prediction: Steelers 21 Browns 13 Loss – Time to retire Charlie Batch. The Browns have a franchise QB to go along with a decent D and a good young RB in Richardson.
Prediction: Saints 35 49ers 31 Loss – The win streak is broken for the Saints as SF flexes it’s muscle and showcases it’s future QB in Kaepernick.
Prediction: G-Men 38 Packers 35 Win – The Packers should have stayed back in Green Bay if that’s the effort they’re gonna put out.
Weekly Total: 2 – 3. Year to Date: 36 – 24
