While the National Football League is scrambling to accommodate teams in the midst of a COVID surge, we have nine outdoor venues set to host games today and once again the NFL has avoided severe weather. Most of the sites will have cloudy conditions, but no weather that should affect the play.
One of the most anticipated games on the Week 15 schedule is the contest between the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks. The Rams come into this week one behind the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West. Arizona is in Detroit to battle the 1-11-1 Lions.
The Seahawks are currently in last place in the NFC West, but have won two in a row and two weeks ago dampened the playoff aspirations of another division foe, the San Francisco 49ers. The Rams won the first meeting of the season against Seattle, 26-17, in fifth week action. Today’s scheduled contest has been moved from Sunday to Tuesday, a decision to allow the Rams to get back a number of players that would have missed the game today due to COVID protocol.
Two other games originally slated for today have also been rescheduled. The Las Vegas Raiders at Cleveland Browns will be played as part of a Monday night double-header, and the Washington Football team will now play their game at the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday night.
As for the games that are being played today, the Baltimore Ravens will be forced to play against the Green Bay Packers without starting quarterback Lamar Jackson, he is still nursing an ankle injury suffered last Sunday in Baltimore’s loss to the Browns. Starting in his place will be Tyler Huntley, who worked in relief in Cleveland last week and led a comeback that fell just two points short on the road.
The public has checked in with their three favorite plays of the day beginning with the Packers (-7) over the Ravens and followed by the Buffalo Bills (-13) over the Carolina Panthers and Dallas Cowboys (-11½) over the New York Giants.
As for the Qoxhi Picks selections, they are now posted on this site and if a Bullet Play develops in the final hour leading up to the day’s first kickoff, that game will be added to the list of recommendations by 9:45 a.m. Pacific Time.
