Here are 20 bold predictions worth considering for NFL Week 17 before the playoffs get underway in January.
As crazy as it is to believe, NFL Week 17 is officially here, and football fans will once again have plenty to look forward to when it comes to some of the playoff implications on the line.
From the Philadelphia Eagles looking to hang on to the NFC East title to the Tennessee Titans looking to earn the final Wild Card spot, Week 17 will be filled with plenty of exciting action for fans to follow.
But when it comes to the most exciting matchup of all, it’s going to be difficult to top Sunday night’s game between the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers since the NFC West title isn’t the only thing on the line.
Depending on how the rest of the NFC shakes up, the potential No. 1 seed is also on the line for these NFC West rivals, meaning one team could possibly benefit from home-field advantage throughout the playoffs while the other ends up being a Wild Card team.
During the first meeting between these two teams in November, the Seahawks managed to pull off the thrilling overtime win over the 49ers, which also happened to be San Francisco’s first loss of the 2019 season as well.
This NFC West rivalry has already proven to be one of the best over the years, but one can only imagine the intensity that will be on display when these two teams square off Sunday night when looking at everything on the line.
