Week 16 In/Out Sleepers for Sunday-Calvin Johnson a true Game Time Decision-watch carefully; MJD active; L Fitz expected to play

Week 16

No Thurs or Saturday games this week. Just SNF and MNF and next week (week 17) we do not even get SNF or MNF just 16 games on Sunday (4 of which are 4:15 EST starts)

-watch DAL @ WAS if Dallas wins, PHI has nothing to play for vs CHI and might…might rest their starters after the first half. Just a gut feeling. Should DAL lose then a PHI win equals Division so they will be playing full out. Same situation in reverse for CHI-if GB wins I think the CHI-GB game in week 17 will be Division winner. Interesting.

Steve Smith CAR WR will play with special glove and 6 stitches in hand. Don't start him as even with good hands he has dropped the past past weeks in terms of stats-Greg Olsen looks better and C Newton may be less optimal.

SNF: CHI @ PHI
MNF: ATL @ SF

MIA @ BUF-Rain/Mist
AZ @ SEA-Rain
PIT @ GB-Snow
CLE @ NYJ-Rain and wind
