The Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys are off this week, but the other 30 NFL teams are in action, trying to strengthen their playoff positioning.

Washington Redskins at Minnesota Vikings (-15.5)
Are you ready to watch some pigskin on Thursday night? The Vikings (5-2) are rolling and the Redskins (1-6) have rolled over. Should be competitive until the second quarter.
Pick: Minnesota 29, Washington 10
Arizona Cardinals at New Orleans Saints (-9.5)
This is a fun one. The Cardinals (3-3-1) have won three straight, albeit against powderpuffs. Now they take on the big bad Saints (6-1) who are seemingly unbeatable regardless of who the quarterback is. This could be close, but tough to see New Orleans losing.
Pick: New Orleans 23, Arizona 16
Cincinnati Bengals at Los Angeles Rams (-13)
Zac Taylor goes back to Los Angeles to face his old friend and mentor, Sean McVay. Unfortunately for Taylor, he’s returning with the Bengals (0-7) who are one of the worst teams in recent memory. Meanwhile, the Rams (4-3) got right in Atlanta last weekend and will continue to dos o this Sunday.
Pick: Los Angeles 33, Cincinnati 17
Denver Broncos at Indianapolis Colts (-6)
Could the Colts (4-2) stumble here after a couple of huge wins against Houston and Kansas City? It’s possible with the Broncos (2-5) desperate and coming off a mini-bye. Look for this to be close, but with Indianapolis pulling it out late.
Pick: Indianapolis 21, Denver 19
