The NFL's final week is packed with games that could shake up the playoff picture. Let's dive into some key matchups and what they mean for the teams involved.

The Cardinals and Bengals are set to face off, with the Bengals favored by seven points. The Cardinals have had a tough season, especially on offense, where injuries have taken a toll. Quarterback Kyler Murray has been out since Week 5, and the team has struggled to find consistency. Despite this, owner Michael Bidwill has shown support for coach Jonathan Gannon, who has been with the team for three seasons. The Cardinals have a young staff and a lot of potential, but their performance this year has been underwhelming.

The Seahawks are favored by seven points against the Panthers. The Panthers pulled off a surprising win against the Rams a few weeks ago, which helped the Seahawks secure their position in the NFC West. A win for the Seahawks would ensure a playoff game between the Buccaneers and Panthers in Week 18.

The Steelers and Browns are set to battle, with the Steelers favored by three points. The Ravens' win on Saturday puts pressure on the Steelers to secure a victory and win the AFC North.

The Saints are favored by 1. 5 points against the Titans. The Saints have been on a roll, winning their last three games. A win here would keep the Titans ahead of the Commanders in the draft order.

The Buccaneers are favored by six points against the Dolphins. Both teams have had their struggles this season, but the Buccaneers were once 6-2 before losing seven of their last nine games. The Dolphins have shown improvement in the second half of the season, but injuries have taken a toll.

The Jaguars are favored by 5. 5 points against the Colts. The Jaguars have been impressive, winning five straight games and beating the Broncos by 14 points. The Colts, on the other hand, have relied on the experience of Philip Rivers, who is 44 years old and has a weak arm.

The Patriots are favored by 13. 5 points against the Jets. The Jets have lost their last three games by a combined score of 111-36. A win for the Patriots would clinch the AFC East.

The Giants and Raiders are set to face off, with the Raiders favored by 1. 5 points. This game is crucial for the draft order, as the Raiders have been openly tanking to secure the No. 1 pick. The Giants, on the other hand, have a chance to secure the No. 1 pick with a loss.

The Eagles and Bills are set to face off, with the Bills favored by 1. 5 points. The Bills have a strong rushing offense and a true home-field advantage. The Eagles have a chance to clinch at least the 3 seed if the Panthers lose to the Seahawks.

The Bears and 49ers are set to face off, with the 49ers favored by three points. Both teams have been on a hot streak, with the 49ers winning five straight games and the Bears winning seven of their last eight. The 49ers have scored 85 points in their last two games, and their offense has been impressive.

The Rams are favored by 7. 5 points against the Falcons. The Falcons have won two straight games, ruining their draft positioning. The Rams, on the other hand, are still playing for the No. 1 seed and are a far superior team.
