The New York Jets have been playing like an offensive juggernaut over the past three weeks. QB Ryan Fitzpatrick's been on fire and heads in Week 15 action as the AFC Offensive Player of the Week after torching Tennessee for 263 yards and three TDs. Things have been quite the opposite for the Dallas Cowboys -- as at 4-9 -- their season is all but over. It's going to get ugly in 'Jerry World' on Saturday night, as the Jets will leave town having embarrassed the Cowboys by defeating them by 14 points in their own building. By the end of this one, Cowboys fans are going to wish that scoreboard wasn't so big after the beat down they witness on it.

9. Rex Ryan's Bunch Finally Puts Together A Complete Game, Buffalo Crushes Washington

At 6-7, Rex Ryan's first campaign as head coach of the Buffalo Bills clearly hasn't gone the way he assured the masses it would prior to the season. With that said, the Bills match up perfectly in every facet of the game with the Washington Redskins, and project to hand Washington a beat down of epic proportions on Sunday. Tyrod Taylor's four-TD performance will prove too tough for the Redskins to overcome, as the Bills' defense finally lives up to the crazy expectations Ryan has for it in his interesting mind.

8. New York Giants Hand Carolina Panthers First Loss Of Season

Wait until you see Eli Manning electrify on Sunday. Manning will expose the Carolina Panthers in the flats, up the seams, across the middle and seemingly anywhere else he pleases by targeting Odell Beckham Jr. early and often. Cam Newton will put forth a valiant effort to keep his team's winning streak alive, but it just won't be enough as the Giants secure a comfortable seven point victory to shock the nation.

Manning will expose the Carolina Panthers in the flats, up the seams, across the middle and seemingly anywhere else he pleases by targeting Odell Beckham Jr. early and often. Cam Newton will put forth a valiant effort to keep his team's winning streak alive, but it just won't be enough as the Giants secure a comfortable seven point victory to shock the nation.

7. Oakland Sends Green Bay Packing With 10 Point Loss

The Green Bay Packers are the worst 9-4 team in the NFL right now. Aaron Rodgers has not played up to the incredibly high standard he's set for himself, and this team as a whole is vulnerable in many facets of the game. After gaining confidence from defeating the Denver Broncos in their own building in Week 14, the Oakland Raiders are going to run roughshod over Green Bay's overrated roster. Expect Derek Carr to expose Green Bay's defense for 275 yards and three TDs, ultimately cementing a 10-point victory that sends the Packers home absolutely devastated.

6. Bill Belichick Runs Up Score On Lowly Tennessee Titans, New England Patriots Drop A 50-Burger

Despite losing RB LeGarrette Blount for the season in Week 14, the New England Patriots will absolutely annihilate the floundering Tennessee Titans on Sunday. Bill Belichick has a subconscious passion for embarrassing opponents, and that's exactly what you can expect to happen this weekend in front of the delighted Gillette Stadium faithful.

5. Chip Kelly's 'Devil May Care' Offense Stopped In Its Tracks By Arizona

Chip Kelly's 'Devil May Care' Offense Stopped In Its Tracks By Arizona Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports
After winning two straight, the Philadelphia Eagles have become the favorite of many to win the NFC East at 6-7. Unfortunately for Chip Kelly, his "devil may care" offense is going to be stopped in its tracks in front of a nation by Arizona's overwhelming defense. Kelly just doesn't have enough talent at wide receiver to hang with the Cardinals secondary, and Patrick Peterson projects to make the Eagles pay with a pick-six as he's given freedom against lackluster talent. In the end, the Cardinals will be headed back to the desert 12-2, and the Lincoln Financial Field faithful will be left to wonder what could have been.

4. Jacksonville Crushes Atlanta's Playoff Hopes and Dreams

The Atlanta Falcons got off to a surprise 5-1 start to the 2015 campaign, and it appeared as if statues were going to be built of Dan Quinn in honor of how fast he was able to turn things around in his first year on the job. Sadly, the Falcons have lost six straight, and their season is spiraling out of control. The Jacksonville Jaguars -- on the other hand -- have played decent football of late, and are still alive in the AFC South playoff picture despite a 5-8 record. Blake Bortles is third in the NFL in touchdowns with 30, and will showcase his scoring prowess throughout this contest as the Jaguars pulverize the Falcons, ultimately winning by 14 points.

3. Johnny Manziel Nowhere To Be Found In Seattle, Seahawks Win By 20

The Cleveland Browns have been many things this season, but a team that's capable of defeating the Seattle Seahawks in their own building is certainly not one of them. In a tough spot, QB Johnny Manziel will pull a vanishing act against Seattle's stout defense, ultimately finishing with under 200 yards and three INTs. Seattle's Russell Wilson will lead his improved pass attack down the field like a herd of savages during its opening drive, ultimately setting the tone for how this one will go with a touchdown. In the end, Cleveland will be heading home with another disappointing loss, and Pete Carroll and Co. will appear to be destined to lock up the No. 5 seed in the NFC playoff picture.

2. Pittsburgh Defeats Denver In Contest With Undeniable AFC Playoff Implications

Now that Cincinnati Bengals QB Andy Dalton is out for the regular season, the Pittsburgh Steelers have designs on winning the AFC North after dealing with a plethora of injuries of their own. Brock Osweiler has done a nice job for the visiting Denver Broncos thus far since replacing Peyton Manning, but he's not capable of out-dueling Ben Roethlisberger in his own building. Despite a valiant effort, the Steelers will send the Broncos back to Denver with a 10 point loss, leaving the Heinz Field Faithful overcome with visions of hosting a playoff game in January.

1. Chicago Stuns Minnesota, Wins By 10

The Minnesota Vikings haven't been able to play at a high level on a consistent basis of late, and appear to be headed toward an epic collapse despite an 8-5 record. Teddy Bridgewater's inability to stretch the field in the pass attack will come back to haunt the Vikings in this one as the Bears stack the box with eight players on seemingly every play to stop Adrian Peterson. In the end, despite a few boneheaded mistakes of his own, QB Jay Cutler will have done enough to leave the twin-cities with a 10-point victory.
