NFL Week 13 Picks From the MMQB Staff: Eagles Host 49ers in NFC Title Game Rematch
It’s Week 13! The end is nearing for us having a lighter slate due to teams’ being on their bye weeks, but there are still some big games. That will start Thursday night with two NFC playoff contenders, the Cowboys and Seahawks back in action on normal rest after playing on Thanksgiving.
The game of the week also comes out of the NFC, a (spicy!) rematch of last season’s conference title game between the Eagles and 49ers. Philadelphia is the underdog in that game, but the majority of our pickers think the Birds will win again.
Elsewhere, the Panthers will play their first game under interim coach Chris Tabor after firing Frank Reich, and our crew is unanimous in thinking the Texans will snap the Broncos’ five-game winning streak.
Here’s who is picking games this season.
