Christian's Picks:
1. Packers: Wins by 15+ Points
The Packers may never lose again, let's face it. They are like the Patriots in that they never hold back and always try to score, whether they're up by 1 or by 35. Kyle Orton will be starting for a shaky Chiefs team who just fired their coach, Todd Haley. Teams never do too well in the week after firing their coach. Greg Jennings will be out for the Packers but this shouldn't affect Rodgers too much because he has other weapons like Nelson and Finley to throw too. If the Packers can beat the Raiders by 30 points after benching all their starters in the second half, they can beat the Chiefs by at least 15.
2. Detroit Lions
The Lions are a better team hands down. They will have Suh back and with him, Vanden Bosch, and Fairley, they will make Carson Palmer sweat. The Lions need a win here and they need the Cowboys, Bears, and Seahawks to lose ONE of their three remaining games to make the playoffs. The Raiders likely need to win out to make the playoffs which they probably won't do, starting with this game. Stafford is simply going to tear apart their disappointing defense (18th in passing yards allowed and 29th in rushing yards allowed). The Raiders let up 27.2 PPG and score only 22.3 while the Lions score 28.2 PPG and allow 23.4 PPG. Lions win this 23-17.
