You are here: Home / Music Marketing / 10 Top Ways To Promote Your Music That Actually Work in 2019!
So I've already written a free complete ebook introducing people to music marketing, and even created one of the (if not THE) best courses around on promoting your music.
That said, today I wanted to go a step further and bring you in on some hard hitting strategies that will gain you more fans, and that actually work in this day and age.
There are too many dated articles out there which talk about promoting your music. Many of them simply share old information which didn't work that well at it's peak.
Many of them give smaller results than they're worth. Today though, I'm going to cover 6 things you can do to better promote your music.
Marketing your music is essential if you want to get your name out there and actually start making money from your talent, so if these are some of your aims, be sure to read and implement as much of this guide as humanly possible.
And if you find it useful, please share it with friends or talk about it on your website. So, let's get into the promotion tips.
So I know some of you will be wondering what I mean by this.
What I mean is that you should spend a good portion of your time contacting event organizers, radio stations, websites that cover your genre of music in some way, TV channels, DJs, musicians who are more established than you, and the like.
While a lot of musicians spend lots of time grinding it out trying to make new fans one by one, more successful and full time musicians often spend more time building up relationships with people who can get their music out there better than they can.
The thing is, if you get in good with bigger companies and they recommend you to their audience, you'll get a lot more exposure from that one article / event / show / interview than you would from spending a month on Facebook and Twitter trying to get new fans from scratch.
That's why it's worth investing time and effort into forming these kinds of relationships.
Now I'm not saying don't market to fans individually. You should, but usually only once they're already on your social sites and mailing list.
In terms of actually getting people to hear you the first time around, getting other established businesses to promote you is one of the best ways to go about doing this.
So switch your target audience and start focusing more of your efforts on other businesses. And remember, as a musician, you are a business!
Gigging is one of those golden activities every musician should be doing! Not only can it be great for raising awareness of your brand, but it can also be monetized in multiple ways, and help you build a strong relationship with your core audience.
Fans of your genre in general.
For gaining NEW fans, this is the kind of audience you want! While for increased revenue you'd want to put on your own gigs and make it all about you, you won't get very many people first discovering your music at these kind of gigs.
Because of this, they won't do much in terms of increasing your fanbase. When playing at shows with multiple artists however, you have a good chance to get your music in front of new targeted music fans.
With so many new acts coming out every day, it can be hard to stay top-of-mind.
Yes, someone might hear one of your songs and like what you're doing, but if you don't keep giving them more content and keep them entertained in some form of another, there's a good chance that they may forget you.
Songs. This is the obvious one.
Blog posts to do with your music career. So what you're working on, where you'll be performing, asking fans for their opinions on things, etc.
Blog posts related to your genre of music. You can get a lot of people finding out about you by publishing content related to your genre as a whole rather than just you as a musician. More on this later.
As I mentioned, the majority of content should initially be going on your own website. This will help build your website up into a valuable asset, and one that will go a long way to getting new fans as well as keeping existing ones happy.
If you haven't yet made a site, you can see how to make one here.
This is a big one, so listen up. If you want to get as much exposure for your music as possible, you'll really want to make yourself more than just a musician!
What do I mean by this? Well, you want to do everything you can to get yourself out there and in front of a targeted audience.
And by everything, I mean things that aren't directly related to promoting yourself as a musician (but that will still get new targeted eyes to you and your music).
Remember the above point about posting more content on your site?
Well who's to say that you have to talk about you all the time?
By talking about other acts and your genre of music in general, not only do you have more content to share with your audience, but you'll have more things which you can rank for in search engines.
This will mean more traffic to your site in the long-run, as you'll be using relevant terms which people will be searching for to find your kind of music. This strategy is definitely worth using, so get started with it asap!
This is something I've talked about and helped people do in the Full Time Musician course. So taking the above theory even further, why not create a website or podcast which you target at people who like your kind of music?
This can be a music review podcast, a radio show which showcases your genre, or even a website which generally covers everything in your music scene. Furthermore, it could even be something not 100% related to your genre that a lot of people in your genre also like.
So if you make music skateboarders often listen to, you may want to make a skateboarding site and play your music on the site and in the videos.
You'll also want to include a shop page where people can buy your music, and possibly even start selling skateboarder related merchandise with your logo on it.
As my regular readers will know, I've been banging on about this for as long as this site has been around.
If you can get people to sign up to your list before they leave, you'll have their email address. From here you can communicate with them on a weekly basis, and remind them about you and your music.
The following strategy on swapping their email address for a freebie works very well.
If you haven't set your own newsletter up yet, you can see how to do so here.
Ok, so this one is more of a tip of how not to promote your music. That said, focusing on not losing fans is just as important as gaining new fans (I should have made that point 7 ;)).
If you can make good songs but also make the occasional dud, it's important to know what to do with that dud song. Even if you're spent money to record it, don't use it.
Don't give it out to fans. Instead, put it in a deep folder in your computer that will never be found by anyone!
This song will do you more harm than good, and work at chipping away at your reputation.
In general, you want to avoid doing anything that will have a negative impact on your reputation. You want people to think of you as one of the best musicians in your genre, and you want to give people who haven't heard you before the best first impression.
If you're putting out weak songs though or weak artwork, a percentage of people will first hear you through that weak song, and possibly never give you another chance.
If you don't make great music, nothing will ever change in your music career. As an independent musician, you're fighting an uphill battle by default.
You're competing for the attention of people who are constantly being bombarded with top 40 chart-topping hits. The bottom line is this – if you don't go above and beyond the call of duty to write incredible music, your chances of being noticed are slim.
You need to "wow" people with your music to draw them in!
If you've been in the music industry for any length of time, you've heard that before. To make it big, you just need one song that captures people.
As it turns out, this is still relevant advice today.
Additionally, without great music, a lot of the strategies mentioned in this guide won't work for you. Gigging is great, and it will help you make money and improve as a performer, but if you don't make music people care about, it doesn't matter how often you play.
You can make as many industry connections as you want, but if they don't feel like your music is up to their standards, there's no incentive for them to help you promote it.
There is a fanbase for every type of music, but finding your audience is a lot of work. So it makes good sense that you'll more readily stand behind a quality product than a product that's subpar.
And the same goes for your fans and the connections you make too. They'll support something that's great, but not something that's just okay.
If you're in a band, then you need to figure out who can do what in terms of creating content, managing your social media sites, marketing, updating your website, and so on. If you're a solo artist, you need to build a team.
And building a team is ultimately something you'll want to do regardless of the size of your act.
Is there someone in your band that's great with social media? Fantastic – have them manage your online presence.
Is there someone else that's technically proficient, and has all the gear necessary to record videos? Great, get them to start making engaging content for YouTube.
There's always the chance that no one in your band knows the first thing about marketing or building a website. First and foremost, you are a musician, so you may not have many strengths outside of playing an instrument or singing.
The key, then, is to figure out what everyone's good at, and what they're interested in learning. It doesn't make sense to force a band member into doing something they don't even want to do, so determining everyone's strengths upfront is an important step.
This is something the band The Middle Coast does very well, and if you go to the contact page on their website, you can even see that each member has a clearly defined role – Dylan and Roman handle booking, and Liam does everything else.
Then, as you become more successful, and you build a bit of a budget, you're going to want to start growing your team. As a starting point, you can outsource tasks you don't like doing or ones you're not good at.
This gives you more time to focus on creating. Working with freelancers and contractors is a good way to get started, and you can find plenty of them on Upwork.
Then, when you're ready, you can start working with publicists, booking agents, managers, and so on.
The reason this works is because it gives you a foundation from which to execute your marketing strategy in a coordinated, organized, consistent way. And consistency is key when it comes to spreading the word about your music.
If you've ever listened to Music Business Radio, you'll notice that there is a common theme among some of the most successful artists – most if not all of them work with a publicist!
Things have changed a lot with public relations (PR) in recent years. Online press releases used to help you get the attention of the media, for potential interviews and news coverage.
Today, press releases actually do more to boost your SEO – they help you rank for particular keywords, and when they're published and distributed to a large network of sites, you also get links pointing back to your site!
To overcome obscurity as an artist, it takes more than just luck and being at the right place at the right time.
Gigging might lead to some great exposure opportunities, but chances are they won't, unless you're playing well-known venues, or venues where industry people are known to gather.
You need to create newsworthy stories on a regular basis, engage the media, and develop awareness for your music, tours, special events, releases, awards, and so on.
A lot of artists wonder about the effectiveness of getting coverage on music blogs, podcast and radio interviews, or entertainment magazines. To be fair, you won't have access to the best publications when you're just getting started.
Content that goes up online often stays up for a long time. This gives people an opportunity to discover you over and over and over again, long after the publish date.
You're building connections with industry influencers. Once in their good graces, you would have to screw it up pretty bad to fall out of their graces. If they like you, they'll keep covering you, and they may even be able to connect you with other industry people, or provide you with resources that can help you.
Video is a powerful promotional tool. But the right kind of video? That makes all the difference.
One thing that's fascinating to fans – and will always be fascinating to fans – is the recording process. There's a lot of mystery and intrigue about the gear being used, mic techniques, how certain sounds were achieved, and so on.
And even if not for that, people love to see how their favorite songs came together in the first place.
These types of videos are great for your fans, because they offer insights into who you are as well as their favorite music, but can also convert new fans, because they see you putting in the hard work to create a great product.
Music is a strange thing, and first impressions may stay with you, but they aren't always right.
I remember not liking Rush when I first heard them, mostly because of Geddy Lee's voice. But watching Rush in Rio convinced me that they were an amazing band, and I've been a fan of theirs ever since.
Plus, you can turn your video into a DVD using a service like CreateSpace, and give it away as a bonus, or even monetize it by selling it to your fans. The cost of putting together great video could be significant, so if you don't have a budget, don't try to implement this strategy just yet.
But when you're ready to take things to the next level, make sure to capture professional footage from your next major recording session.
So as you can see, this isn't the average 'promote your music online with Facebook and Twitter' guide.
I hope it's shown you that there's more to music marketing than the advice you hear thrown around on most other music advice sites, and I hope you now trust me enough to impart other wisdom on you in future.
So what do you think about the above strategies, have you tried any of them before? Are there any other ways to promote your music that have worked well for you? Let me know in the comments.
And please share this guide around if it's been useful.
Awesome Article! I will be releasing my tape #JoKES_ASIDE next year(April 2017). I have never been this motivated, I cant wait to release it-ALL THANKS TO YOU!!
Hey! Thanks for sharing this stunning article. I agree with you. Keep it up.
Agree with this article completely. Musicians need to start looking at themselves as a business and respect the kind of work that goes into making a business successful. Look at Mcdonalds for example. Arguably one of the best known brands in the world, yet they still constantly advertise on TV, radio, magazines, etc. This should give you an idea of how much work you, as an unknown musician, have to put into marketing. Not just any work of course though, smart and consisitent work. It's a marathon not a sprint.
Nice tips Shaun. Anyway I must be the most unlucky guy from the world cause I've been doing this everyday of this year and I spent lots of money with gear and I didn't earn even a cent. My friends say that my records are amazing and that I just play the guitar like Eric Clapton but nobody wants to give me a pound. I think the music is just for those who have big marketing companies supporting them. I'm completly tired of this and I'm almost sure I'll be delivering pizza forever.
After reading your first tip that suggests connecting with businesses I thought I would take your advice. Before I do, I thought you should know that i'm seriously going to apply as much as I can from this article to real life. It was informative, easy to understand, and it has seriously helped me a bunch as i'm just starting to promote my music. Anyways, I was wondering if you have any specific strategies for tips getting articles/blogs to post links/reviews/mentions of my music on their sites? Here is my music sound cloud.com/ridleyjack … I would greatly appreciate some of your advice and good work with the article. Thanks!
Awesome article! I agree 100%! In the end every musician "must" act entrepreneurial and market his music constantly. I like your idea of being a B2B musician. I also think that building relationships to "multipliers" is key in growing a band faster. But how to attract them? And how can musicians add some value on their event? You have some ideas? Shares won´t be interesting for them I guess. Maybe some Press-Collaboration or Website / Cross Promotion maybe?
I´d be glad if you´ll find the time to reply and look forward to your ideas on that.
Hi Jonathan. You're right, shares won't be interesting to them. You can however benefit them if your name has a buzz and you can share some of that buzz with their event. While you won't be able to get in this position initially, using the compounding effect you should be able to get to that stage and get some attention around yourself. From there you'll make it more and more desirable for others to work with you, meaning they'll get benefit and some of the attention you're getting.
It's all about building your way up the ladder, making yourself more valuable at each stage.
HI Shaun, I like your comment about connecting with people that have a bigger audience than me. And to write about others via a blog is also a very good idea for the seach engine links..I very much appreciate your insights and what you share. The music business has endless turns and twists and you've inspired me to get out there and write more and contact more people eventhough I do that a lot, thanks Shaun, ps. my 9th new age solo piano cd is coming out in Febuary 2014, it's been recorded and we are getting ready for the editing stage. Peace, Mark.
Hi Mark, glad the article connected with you. Promoting your music isn't always a fast race to the top, there are steps which need to be taken, and it's a gradual building process. That said, connecting with those who have a bigger audience can be a short cut many don't take advantage of.
I hope you're release went well and you took advantage of some of these promotion strategies.


A jump in traffic fatalities last year pushed deaths on U.S. roads to their highest level in nearly a decade. The national numbers erased improvements made during the Great Recession and economic recovery, according to the Associated Press, citing data from the National Safety Council.
Federal Highway Administrator Gregory Nadeau will meet with New York State Department of Transportation Commissioner Matt Driscoll next month to discuss a plan for taking down the more than 500 "I Love NY" tourism signs erected throughout the state, a spokesman for the federal agency said Nov. 28.
When Americans cast their ballots for president and members of Congress, they also will help to determine the outlook for the country's highway funding that is so critical to freight movement.
America's next president needs to advance a long-term funding plan to modernize infrastructure and freight corridors to guarantee economic growth for the coming years, industry stakeholders said.
South Carolina, South Dakota and Kansas have the nation's most cost-effective state highway systems while Alaska, New Jersey and Hawaii have the least cost-effective, according to a report released by the Reason Foundation on Sept. 22.

The world of Civil Services Aspirants – Introduction
NG News Desk
By Harshmeet Singh
Some call it one of the world's toughest examinations, some call it the entrance gate to a golden career, while some call it the chance to impact the society like nothing else. The UPSC Civil Services examination (or informally known as the IAS exam) presents a chance to the common man to enter the national bureaucracy based on his or her credibility.
One of the most coveted examinations in the country, the civil services examination's preparation is in itself a penance. With a never ending syllabus and frequent twists in the examination pattern, aspirants prepare for multiple years to get a shot at the glory. Such is the aura of this examination that clearing it in the first attempt is considered an exception!
But behind the glory it brings to the successful candidates lies the toil and agony of the lakhs of candidates who leave their comfortable homes to come to Delhi with hopes that their next destination would be the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration, Mussoorie.
This series of articles by NewsGram is an attempt at taking a closer look at the UPSC civil services aspirants, their hardships, the money-spinning coaching institutes and the examination itself. And we begin by studying the pattern of the 'mother of all examinations'.
The UPSC civil services examination recruits officers for 24 central services, of which the Indian Administration Services or the IAS is considered the most illustrious. IAS officers go on to take up revered roles such as Collector, Chief Secretary, Head of the PSUs and others. Each year, close to 10 lakh candidates apply for the exam, out of which, close to 1000 candidates are finally selected for all the services!

The various stages of the examination stretch over a year, starting with the preliminary examination which is conducted in August. At this stage, the candidates need to appear for two papers, viz. Paper 1 or General Studies (History, Geography, Economics, Science & Technology, Polity and Current Events) and Paper 2 or the civil services aptitude test. Both the papers are objective type.
Upon clearing the first stage, the candidates will appear for the Mains stage. Here, the candidate will appear for nine descriptive papers. Of these nine papers, four are from General Studies, one English paper, one language paper, one Essay paper and two papers from the optional subject which that candidate is free to choose from the list of subjects offered by UPSC.
If the candidate is declared successful at this stage too, he or she proceeds to the grueling personality test where he or she will come face to face with some of the top bureaucrats of the country and answer their questions. The marks obtained by the candidate in the Mains stage and the personality test are added to form a merit list for the successful candidates.
The overall rigor of the examination is even more daunting than this lengthy scheme of the examination. They say that those who manage to successfully clear this examination despite all the odds have matured enough in the process to handle nerve-wrecking job postings in the coming times.

My newest blog crush is Strawberry Freckleface. I'm following this super cute girl for a month or two and I must say that I'm more than impressed with her blog. Her name is Casey and she's 26 years old.
This is what Casey tells about herself: "Redhead stylist that hopes to someday live in the desert under a giant cactus with a pet camel. Foodaholic and fitness fanatic inspired by neoteric mystical jewelry, madstones, Tuareg, egyptian, voodoo charms, sharks and snakepits, canyons and sunsets."
I like her style very much and her outfit posts are very inspirational for me. Casey's trademark is definitely shorts (or short dress) in combination with boots. Her photos are amazing too. She always chooses different and interesting locations for shooting.
I have the similar yellow dress. You can see it here!
kako je dobra haljina na trecoj slici!
Nije u mom fazonu, ali je svakako super ;)!
You are so nice! And you are so pretty, too.
Svidja mi se, bas je zanimljiva!
Zanimljive cizmice,ali mi smeta sto krije facu toliko,to me nervira.
Neverovatno koliko ova devojka ima stila . Hvala Katarina sto si podelila ovo sa nama . Odusevljena sam .


Simone Milasas is a lady who knows how to be a woman, who sees the joy of possibility and future and knows that there is the prospect of possibility in every choice you choose.
Simone has worked in many different industries around the world. She has owned companies, created them, managed them, changed them all with an enthusiasm to invite people to a different possibility in the world.
"I grew up with the question of 'Imagine what you would do if you knew you could not fail?' – to me you cannot fail, failure is just the start of something new" says Simone.
Simone has always believed that anything is possible and desired to inspire people to choose everything they could.
"True leadership is knowing where you are heading and not allowing anyone to stop you. You have to know what you wish to create." Simone is the worldwide coordinator of Access Consciousness, a forever expanding company in over 176 countries.
Simone is the author of JOY OF BUSINESS translated into 13 languages, best-selling book GETTING OUT OF DEBT JOYFULLY translated into 5 languages and RELATIONSHIP. ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT ONE? co-authored with Brendon Watt.
Simone currently travels the world facilitating seminars with Access Consciousness. She also has numerable online courses and is always asking for more possibilities to show up. You can find Simone every week on her podcast – The Art & Industry of Business & Living available here and iTunes.
Access has been such an amazing gift in my life, so I wish to invite you to empower yourself to show up more in life. Access can assist you in every part of your life. You are an infinite being and a great and glorious creator. Claim, own and acknowledge it. You are a gift to you and everyone else the more you claim your total perceiving, knowing, being and receiving in life.
For me, receiving was something so alien to me… I remember the first time Gary suggested that "if I was more open to receiving I would have more fun in life, make more money and everything would be easier"… I truly thought this man was mad or what he was saying was so strange to me, I did not believe that I was allowed to receive. I thought it was all about giving. Now have you ever experienced receiving from gifting? Most people operate from the give & take program... what if you were to function from gifting & receiving? What would that look like?
You're reading this website so my perception is you are already asking the universe and yourself questions….
I am available for Private Sessions with Access and co-ordinate classes around Australia.
With a session of Access it can start to erase all the areas of your life where you have locked yourself up in a fixed point of view, created a judgement and not allowed yourself to receive the greatness of you. There are hands on processes for the body and energetic clearings (which can be done over the phone).
And we would not choose Ease, Joy & Glory for what reason?
Wybór Możliwości zachodzi tam, gdzie zaczynasz widzieć, co naprawdę jest dla Ciebie możliwe dzięki inności, którą jesteś i jak tym się stać z większą lekkością. Ta klasa jest facylitowana przez współ-kreatorów Access Consciousness, Gary'ego Douglasa i dr Daina Heera wraz z Simone Milasas oraz Brendonem Wattem. Podczas tych 3 dni uzyskasz dostęp do przestrzeni, w której zaczynasz rozpoznawać swoje umiejętności jako nieograniczonego istnienia.


Sir Harry Annamunthodo was the first West Indian to be appointed to a Chair in the Faculty of Medicine, University College of the West Indies (UCWI) at Mona. He was an outstanding teacher who taught 1500-odd medical graduates over a 25-year period at UWI. He helped to build the Mona Medical Faculty and other medical schools in the Caribbean. As a surgeon, his swiftness and skill were legendary.
Harry Annamunthodo was born in Essequibo, Guyana, on April 26th 1920. As a young boy, he dissected the bodies of dead animals to look for the cause of death. He attended Queen's College in Georgetown on scholarship and won the British Guiana Scholarship in 1939. He began studies in medicine at the University of London two years later because of World War II. He won several prizes and graduated in 1946. He later obtained the Diploma in Tropical Medicine and Hygiene and the Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons, England.
Annamunthodo worked at King George V Hospital in Ilford, Essex for two years and was mentored by the renowned abdominal surgeon, Mr. Herman Taylor. In 1953, he entered the UCWI Hospital as Senior Surgical Registrar. He rose through the ranks to Head of Department, and within six years, became the first West Indian Professor of Surgery. This was the most rapid promotion in the Faculty's history.
He was named Hunterian Professor, Royal College of Surgeons, England, and elected to Fellowship in the American College of Surgeons. In 1967, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II knighted him for service to medicine and medical education in the Caribbean region.
Sir Harry supervised construction of the Mona Medical Faculty building and contributed to it, becoming the "ultimate referral for the Caribbean area". He helped to set up the Eastern Caribbean Medical Scheme in Trinidad and to coordinate the teaching of surgery in Barbados and the Surgical Residency Programme at Mona.
He was conferred with the status of Professor Emeritus by the UWI, and a final year prize for Surgery was named in his honour. He was appointed Professor of Surgery at the University of Kebangsaan, Malaysia, and developed its postgraduate programme. He held this post until his death in 1986.

NFL Picks - Conference Championships
Tennessee @ Kansas City
Going into these teams' first meeting in Week 10 the Titans were 4-5 and in danger of being all but eliminated from playoff contention. Tennessee managed to storm back in the fourth quarter of that game and win in thrilling fashion. Since then these teams have combined to go 13-2 and now they meet with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. They have very different plans on how to make it to Miami too. The Titans want to travel by ground, while the Chiefs are hoping to get there through the air. But let's take a closer look at those strategies and really break them down. According to the Apple maps app, it takes about 13 hours to drive from Nashville to Miami, so it wouldn't be an unreasonable trek. And with the bye week before the Super Bowl the Titans could certainly afford to break the trip up into two days. That doesn't seem too bad. On the other hand, a flight from Kansas City to Miami only takes about 3 hours, so it seems like the Chiefs have the wiser plan. Though, some quick research shows round trip ticket prices in the $400 range, and you'd have to buy one for everybody on the team, not to mention the coaches and probably the owner. All of a sudden those costs really add up. And sure, gas ain't cheap, but the Titans could split the fill-up costs 53 ways, meaning they'd get down to south Florida for less than $10/person. In the classic tortoise/hare mold, it seems like Tennessee might know what they're doing here. I can comfortably conclude that they have the better strategy for getting to Miami. In terms of who I actually think will qualify for the Super Bowl though, I'll take KC. They showed last week that no lead is safe against them. Sure, the Texans didn't have Derrick Henry to grind the clock out, so this game isn't likely to play out the same way, but the idea of Ryan Tannehill starting in a Super Bowl is not something I'm ready to come to grips with mentally. Therefore, I cannot use this space to predict that it will happen.
Chiefs 28-20
Green Bay @ San Francisco
Look, I could try to put on a happy face and break down this game for you. Or tell you about these teams' recent history in conference title games like the Packers' blowout loss to the Falcons in January 2017, or their classic collapse against the Seahawks two years earlier. And then there was the 49ers also-classic defeat against the Seahawks the year before that. I could even post links to the highlights from those games, and I will do that, here they are. But what will that really prove? So rather than have me bitterly wax nostalgic, I enlisted the help of a man who has already called his last game of the season, but is always focused on pro football (at least according to the name of his company). Take it away Cris:
Yikes, for your sake Cris I'll take the home team too. And if it doesn't work out I'll met you in Primm. I've always wanted to ride that tram.
49ers 27-17

NFL Picks - Divisional Round
Minnesota @ San Francisco
Did you know that including playoff games the all-time record in this match-up is 23-23-1? Who will gain the edge in this not very storied rivalry? The NFL has decided that it's of such importance that whoever comes out on top will be rewarded with a trip to the NFC championship game. It's a peculiar decision, but the league has spoken. Someone who will be speaking during this game on Saturday is NBC's Cris Collinsworth; so let's hear what he thinks about it.
Interesting. Maybe the right move is to have Face/Off playing simultaneously on a second screen during this game. Could actually be good advice just for everyday life really.
Tennessee @ Baltimore
The Titans should be honored with a parade. I don't care if they don't end up winning the Super Bowl, they should still get the parade. For beating the Patriots these men are national heroes and should be treated as such. In case you missed it, Tennessee dethroned New England by giving the ball to Derrick Henry and ... nope that's it. No "and" necessary. In fact, Ryan Tannehill only completed 8 passes for 72 yards in that Wild Card win. Vince Lombardi really was accurate when, in 1966, he said, "Running the football is the key to postseason success. And the best way to do that is to get a really big guy to do the running. I'm talking like 6'3" 250 lbs. Sure that's bigger than any player currently in the league, but man oh man, wouldn't that be something, seeing a guy that size be all fast and stuff? Anyway, I'll have the tuna on rye, with extra mayo. Really lather it on there. Mayonnaise is good for you, it makes you strong! And I should know, I'm around strong men all day, I am Vince Lombardi after all." Apparently that quote took place while he was at lunch. I suppose I could have edited it down to just the pertinent material, but I think this really gives you some insight into his fascinating mind. Now the Titans ground game runs into the Ravens, whose offense ran for 60 more yards per game than the next highest team during the regular season. This begs the question: just how many passes will be thrown on Saturday night? I'm gonna go with 6. It will be a battle fought on the ground, just the way ol' Lombardi would've liked it. And that includes the extra mayo.
Ravens 24-16
Houston @ Kansas City
This is the only game in the Divisional round that is a rematch from the regular season. In that initial game, the Texans surprised the Chiefs in KC (I mean with the way they played, not like they showed up unannounced and the Chiefs were in their bathrobes and not ready for company) and won 31-24. In the process they racked up 472 yards of offense and an astonishing 35 first downs. That's only four short of the record for a single game! Needless to say (but I guess I'll go ahead and do just that) the Chiefs will have to figure out a better way to get off the field this time around. And no, I don't recommend just leaving the field after third down regardless of whether or not they've actually made a stop. First of all, that might be a penalty, but if not it would likely just lead to the Texans scoring touchdowns against a literal cover zero defense. Based on recent performance though, it appears KC's D might be able to exit the field the legitimate way. In their six game win streak that closed out the regular season the Chiefs only gave up and average of 11.5 points per game. Now, the offenses they were facing weren't as good as the Texans', but any improvement over their first meeting may be enough to allow Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs' more celebrated unit to get past the visitors this time.
Seattle @ Green Bay
These teams ended the regular season at 11-5 and 13-3, respectively. But according to the Pythagorean formula for calculating what a team's record should have been based on their point differential, we're actually dealing with an 8-8 Seahawks team and a 10-6 Packers group. How did these bums even get into the playoffs?!? To a certain extent, both of these teams have been considered paper tigers by many in the media. But guess what baby, paper is what makes this world go round! I'm talking 'bout money! And these squads got the most. Well ok, not according to Forbes, who ranks them both near the middle of the pack. And sure, the NFL has a hard salary cap, so no one team gets to spend more than another on their players ... Look forget the money thing, alright?!? The point I was trying to make is that it doesn't matter how they got here, just that they're here. And next week one of them will be playing for the right to go to the Super Bowl. So stick to triangles Pythagoras, and leave football to the jocks baby! As for who actually gets the win here, let's move away from math and into geography. The four teams left in the NFC playoffs are all from the North and the West divisions. Maybe it's just me, but it would make the most sense if a team from the Northwest was the one who prevailed, right? Please?
Seahawks 23-20
NFL Picks - Wild Card Round
Buffalo @ Houston
The Houston Texans have qualified for the playoffs 6 times in their franchise history. On each occasion they've done so by winning the AFC South, but they've never had a good enough record to earn a first round bye, meaning this is the sixth time they have hosted a first round playoff game. Every single time the NFL has opted to schedule their game in the early Saturday window. That means whenever the Texans have made the playoffs the Saturday afternoon wild card game has been played in Houston. Basically the NFL is saying they just aren't very interested in the Texans. Or is it us saying that? Clearly the league is basing this on ratings potential; maybe we're to blame. Also their opponents have been Cincinnati (x2), KC, Oakland, Indy, and now Buffalo, so that doesn't exactly help. Sorry Bills, no disrespect, but you get it. Actually that's been the vibe around the Bills all season. Everyone acknowledges that they're winning games, but no one's really prepared to take them seriously. Until now! That's right, I'm going with Buffalo! I don't care about Houston's win two, lose one pattern that I've talked about for over a month and that will surely come back to bite me. Eff it! I'm picking the Bills anyway! Wait, when did you say their last playoff win was? Oh God, is there still time to take it back?!? What do my oh mean "No"? How is that possible? I haven't even hit publish yet ... Oh whoops, damn it!
Bills 23-20
Tennessee @ New England
The fact that it is so jarring to see the Patriots playing in the wild card round is perhaps the best example of just how dominant they've been over the last two decades. That or the six Super Bowl wins and three other appearances. Ok yeah, maybe it's more the latter, but the frequency of their first round byes is staggering. New England hasn't played on the opening weekend of the playoffs since January of 2010. That's ten years to you and me. So is this a sign that the Patriots are more vulnerable than they've been in a decade, or did they just get bored by the regular season? I'd say boredom, how else do you explain closing out with a home loss to the Dolphins? That's a question many Patriots players and staff were likely asking themselves on their drive home Sunday, considering how to make sense of that embarrassment to their shamed families. Just imagine arriving home on 12/29 and telling your teary-eyed child "Christmas is over and daddy lost to the Dolphins." It must have been difficult, especially because most young kids don't understand the type of spark that Ryan Fitzpatrick can provide to an offense. Those little dum-dums are probably equally flummoxed by the impressive run that Ryan Tannehill has led the Titans on. But after Ry guy posted a 7-3 record as starter hopefully their parents are well aware of the threat he poses. I imagine New England will be ready though, Bill Belichick seems to do a fairly effective job of preparing for playoff games.
Patriots 23-16
Minnesota @ New Orleans
The Saints are the first 13-3 team to have to play on the opening weekend of the playoffs since 2011. The last such team? The New Orleans Saints. These guys can't catch a break. That season the two teams receiving byes were Green Bay and San Francisco, and the NFC East was won by a 9-7 team. This begs the obvious question: are we living in some sort of glitchy repeat simulation of the 2011 season? Those playoffs ended with that aforementioned, mediocre NFC East team winning the Super Bowl over the Patriots, so good news Philly fans! As for the 2011 Saints, they won their first round game over a wild card from the NFC North. It's all lining up! But aren't these 2019 Vikings better than those 2011 Lions that lost in New Orleans? Uhhhh, yes? I don't know! Maybe I'm too deep into this '19/'11 corollary if I'm researching a Lions team from eight seasons ago (don't worry, I didn't actually do any research). If I ignore history and focus merely on the teams playing this Sunday I still side with the Saints based on their homefield advantage and the fact that they've averaged 40 points per game over the last month. That's a hell of a total no matter what year you're talking about. Though I suppose if we revisit this in 2027 that number may not be as impressive. With the rate these hot shots are whizzin' that football around there's no reason to think teams won't be putting up 70+ every week.
Saints 31-24
Seattle @ Philadelphia
The Seahawks are sputtering into the playoffs, having lost three of their last four thanks to a struggling offense and a rash of injuries. The Eagles have overcome their own injuries to win four in a row and capture the NFC East crown. It should be noted that those four wins were all against teams from ... the NFC East, so take this hot streak with a grain of salt. But hey, a win is a win, and win in the playoffs is like some sort of jumbo win. So who gets the jumbo win this week and moves on to the Divisional round and an opportunity for a MEGA win? Before I make my pick why don't we get some input from the man who will provide color commentary for the game, Cris Collinsworth:
Whoa, this guy's got some 'tude! I'll follow suit and make a fearless prediction of my own.
New York Jets @ Buffalo
After falling short against the Patriots last Saturday, the Bills are now firmly entrenched as the AFC's 5th seed in the playoffs. This means they'll be traveling to either Houston or Kansas City for Wild Card Weekend. If Rex Ryan were still the Bills coach, this is where I would make a barbecue joke. He's not though, which really leaves me twisting in the wind here. Then again, if he was still their coach it's doubtful that they'd be in the playoffs at all, so the joke wouldn't be relevant in that scenario either. Boy, what a catch 22. Ok, I'll be honest, I'm not totally sure how catch 22s work. But I guarantee that this usage makes sense to me, and isn't that what's most important?
Jets 20-17
Cleveland @ Cincinnati
Come for the orange, stay for the ... hey where are you going?!? Well if you'd stuck around I could have told you about my one wish for this otherwise inconsequential game. As you may know, this is likely the last game Andy Dalton will play for Cincinnati, which means it's the last chance he has to finally dye black stripes into his fiery orange hair to make his head look like a Bengals helmet. I've been waiting years for this, please make it happen Andy. I've never asked you for anything in my life, nor should I have, I don't know you personally. If I did I would ask you for a large amount of money, but that's irrelevant because, like I said, we're not friends, nor are we even mere acquaintances. If somehow you read this and still want to give me that money (not as a loan, just a full gift) then fantastic, get in touch with me and I'll give you my venmo details. But aside from all of that, the one thing I beg of you is that you put those stripes in your hair. Do the right thing Andy, thrill this adoring nation one last time.
Bengals 27-24
Green Bay @ Detroit
If I were in the Lions' PR department on January 1st I would launch a campaign proclaiming that the Lions will be the team of the new decade, the roaring 20s. This promotion basically writes itself. After that Detroit just has to go out and be the league's premiere franchise for the next 10 years. But with such a clever bit of marketing behind them I'm not sure how they wouldn't go do just that. As for the Packers, yeah they're in the playoffs and get a bye with a win. Big deal, that's 2019 stuff; we're not dealing with the present anymore, or the past for that matter, we're in the future. And just as always, the history of the future will be written by the victors, and the victors will be the Detroit Lions. Remind me to check in with you guys in 2029 to see how this went. Also, I should temper this by saying this success is totally contingent on that marketing campaign. Without that I can't promise anything.
Packers 31-13
Los Angeles Chargers @ Kansas City
Is the Chiefs defense good now, or have they just been playing bad offenses? KC is coming off consecutive wins in which they've only surrendered 3 points. Regardless of how cruddy the Broncos and Bears are, giving up a combined 6 points is about the best you can do. Of course, I think you and I both know what the best you can do really is ... That's right, 0 points. Nicely done. You're not quite as dumb as I thought you were. Ok smarty pants, answer me this: what would be the best result for the Chiefs' offense? Bingo, infinity points. Jeez, you're on fire. If Patrick Mahomes catches fire himself over the next month, coupled with continued success from the defense, this team could indeed be going to infinity ... and beyond?
Chicago @ Minnesota
The Vikings' first home loss of the season against the Packers on Monday night has rendered this game meaningless; Minnesota is locked in at the 6th seed. A more cynical writer might suggest that a meaningless game is just the type of environment that Kirk Cousins will thrive in. Luckily for you, that's not the kind of guy I am. Not anymore at least. New decade, new me! And for all you critics who want to bring up Kirk's Monday night failures again, like I did last week (again that was 2010s me, I'm a different guy now, can't stress that enough) chew on this: they don't play playoff games on Mondays dummy.
Bears 23-20
Miami @ New England
Well they did it, the patriots won the AFC East again. Big effing whoop. You want to do something really impressive New England? Why don't you win the Super Bowl again! No wait, don't do that! Damn it! Well that's that. Sorry everyone.
Atlanta @ Tampa Bay
Jameis Winston saved some real pure Jameis moments for a national audience last Saturday. In the first half he threw 3 interceptions, yet still managed to go to halftime tied with the Texans. It was a perfect microcosm of Winston's season; he makes mind-boggling throws, terrible decisions, and then you look at the score and the Bucs are right in the game. Winston currently leads the league in passing yards and has thrown the 2nd most touchdowns, while also throwing the most interceptions. His 28 picks on the season are 10 more than his nearest competitor. If Jameis manages to throw two more on Sunday he'll become only the twelfth man to throw 30 interceptions in a season, and the first since 1988. If it happens I sincerely hope that the game is temporarily halted so that the Falcons can ceremonially present the ball back to Winston. It would be a historical moment, and should be treated as such.
Falcons 30-27
New Orleans @ Carolina
We often talk about who the hottest teams in the league are, but we rarely discuss who are the coldest. Let's take a minute to appreciate the Panthers, who have now lost 7 straight, the second longest active streak in the league. These guys have played themselves into the 7th pick in the draft as of right now, and could climb even higher with another loss to close out the season. It's rare that a team can have a winning record in one half of the season and go winless in the other. How rare, you ask? That's a great question, and I think you're just the type of industrious young scamp to go figure out the answer on your own, because I certainly don't know it. To lock down a bye in the playoffs, the Saints need this win, and Carolina will be more than happy to oblige.
Washington @ Dallas
Well they did it, the Cowboys tricked us good. It seemed like they were finally putting it together after Week 15's drubbing of the Rams, but no, that was just a mirage, a grift, a flim flam. Dallas followed up that triumph with a tumble in Philly, and now they're teetering on the edge of destruction. Nothing would be more fitting for the 2019 Cowboys than to lose to Washington at home and have the Giants beat the Eagles, meaning they blew yet another opportunity. But with starting quarterback Dwayne Haskins out for Washington, the question now is can Case be keen? Umm, I don't know. I tend to doubt that he'll lead them to victory, but then again this Dallas team has taught me to never underestimate their ability to lose games.
Cowboys 24-20
Oakland @ Denver
Guys, I don't know how to tell you this, but the Raiders can still make the playoffs. I know, I didn't think it was possible either. In fact, I think I may have explicitly stated that it wasn't possible last week, but I was wrong. If Oakland wins in Denver, the Colts win in Jacksonville, the Ravens beat the Steelers, and the Texans beat the Titans, the Raiders will make it into the playoffs at 8-8. I didn't know this was a possibility minutes ago, but now I want it to happen very badly. No, not Dalton tiger stripe badly, but it would be a real hoot.
Raiders 23-20
Arizona @ Los Angeles Rams
One year removed from a trip to the Super Bowl and here the Rams are not even mounting a defense to their NFC crown. It's just sad. Everybody's pretty broken up about it. The good news for LA is that they still have a lot of talent on their roster. The bad news is that they're paying through the nose for that talent, and they may soon have to part ways with a number of key contributors. I'm just assuming that, I haven't looked at the numbers, and probably wouldn't even understand them if I did. All I know is this, when you build a Super Bowl loser, eventually you start running out of money. Maybe the Rams got a bunch of cash from their grandmas for Christmas though, that would help. Then again, their grandmas would have to also figure out a way to restructure some contracts and convince the NFL to increase the salary cap even more than they already are. Hmm, I don't know, I'm starting to think grandma might be in over her head on this one.
Rams 27-20
Philadelphia @ New York Giants
After losing to the Dolphins in Week 13 to fall to 5-7, the Eagles have scratched and clawed (or should it be taloned? Can "taloned" be used as a verb?) their way to first place in the NFC East. And how have they done it? By playing other teams from the NFC East. As we've all come to understand, that division is total garbanzo, so having a schedule that's backloaded with those squads has been a real boon for Philly. That's not to say that they've cruised through December though. Each game has been tightly contested, requiring season-saving plays on a regular basis. I expect nothing different from this match-up against a Giants team coming off an overtime win over Washington in one of the more thrilling games between 3-11 teams you'll ever see. I say that hypothetically of course, because odds are you didn't actually see it at all. It's cool, I don't even think the league monitored it at all either. The teams were on the honor system; just go play, then come back and tell us who won. If you ask me the Giants got a little overzealous by claiming Daniel Jones threw 5 touchdowns, but hey, shoot your shot. A closer eye will be kept on this game, one that I expect Philly to pull out late once again.
Eagles 22-19
Indianapolis @ Jacksonville
A lot of people would tell you this game is meaningless, but don't tell that to the Colts! They're going for .500 here, and ya know what, that would be pretty darn impressive. So go open up your Twitter app, and delete that tweet you sent to the Colts' official team account in which you wrote "@Colts this upcoming game you're going to play against Jacksonville will be meaningless. #Kony2012" and delete it! Also, why do you still use that Kony2012 hashtag? Move on. A win here would help Indy move on from an unexpectedly tumultuous season into a hopeful future. So get off their backs already.
Colts 24-22
Pittsburgh @ Baltimore
The Ravens have clinched the top seed in the AFC, and thus may throw the rest of the conference's playoff picture off balance with their strategy in this game. Well ok, not the whole picture, but definitely the part of the picture with the 6 seed in it. With Lamar Jackson resting the Steelers have a much better chance of winning this game and sliding into the postseason with a Titans loss in Houston ...
Tennessee @ Houston
... That being said, if the Chiefs win their morning game over the Chargers the Texans will be locked into the 4th spot regardless of the outcome here. So, it stands to reason that Houston may rest some players as well. Of course, that would leave the Titans with an easier path to the playoffs, because they need only to win here to get in. So the Steelers need to root for the Chargers to win and John Harbaugh to exercise extreme caution with his roster. None of that will matter though if Tennessee simply wins, which will undoubtedly be the case, because for the Texans to prevail it would require them to win a third straight game, something they've refused to do all season. They also haven't lost consecutive games either, so if we follow the win-win-loss pattern that they've laid out for us that means that they'll definitely get to the AFC championship game and lose. Can't argue with that!
Titans 28-14
San Francisco @ Seattle
This is a fairly large game. Let's hear what Cris Collinsworth has to say about it:
If Lynch does anything to positively impact this game I'll probably cry. And if things don't go great, I'll probably cry too. Also, if the wind blows in the right direction I'll probably cry. You guys, I think something is wrong with my eyes.

Houston @ Tampa Bay
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday,
Saturday morning's alright? Apparently so. I don't remember an NFL game kicking off this early on a Saturday, but it's quite alright by me. Any opportunity I get to see unobstructed Jameis Winston tomfoolery is one that I cherish. These are two of the sillier teams in the league, so I expect a lot of points and a lot of laughs. In the end the real winners will be the fans. Yes the fans, and the Texans, who will be the real real winners, because they're actually playing in the game, and they'll end up with more points. Weeks ago I learned that Houston loses once, then wins two consecutive games, then loses again. In the two weeks since discovering this I've foolishly picked against the pattern twice and been incorrect both times. Not this time! The Texans will get their second consecutive win against a Bucs team that won't have either of their Pro Bowl receivers available. So that's the good news for Houston. Of course, the bad news will come next week when they'll be forced to lose, in keeping with convention.
Texans 38-28
Buffalo @ New England
This game is being sold as a pivotal AFC East match-up, and I guess it's fairly important, but not as monumental as it might seem. You see, even if the Bills win to pull even with the Patriots at 11-4, New England would only have to win at home against Miami next week to take home the division title yet again. So in other words, the Patriots have won the AFC East. And it's good for them that this isn't college, otherwise they may very well be stripped of this division title in the future. After the video from the latest New England spying scandal was made public, it became obvious that something nefarious was going on. This is great news for fans of every other team in the league. It means that when the Pats inevitably win the Super Bowl again this February we'll all be able fall back on the tried and true excuse that they cheated their way to the title. Just when the embers from one New England scandal have died out they always throw a new log on the fire that sparks more outrage. And I now believe that it's completely justified, because well, they're cheaters. Plain and simple. This is a pattern of dastardly behavior. Their defenders can act like this stuff is so minuscule in the grand scheme of things that it doesn't really matter, but then why are they doing it? And what are they doing that hasn't been caught yet?
Los Angeles Rams @ San Francisco
The Rams' resurgence lasted all of two weeks. Now they've been shellacked twice in the last four weeks and are on the verge of being eliminated from playoff contention. Meanwhile, the 49ers will be in the playoffs, but after last week's loss to the Falcons it's anybody's guess as to where they'll be situated. They could end up at any seed except for fourth. And that includes sixth, which is a very real possibility that nobody seems to be taking about. At the same time, they need only to win out to secure the top spot. It's a real sliding doors scenario for San Francisco. Multiple timelines will be spun out during this game on Saturday night. Some in which the Niners win the Super Bowl, some where they lose in the first round, and one peculiar instance in which the defense is sent to space to stop an asteroid from colliding with Earth. It's anybody's guess as to which destiny awaits either of these teams, so on Saturday night, don't close your eyes, don't fall asleep, because you won't want to miss a thing.
Jacksonville @ Atlanta
Even after the Falcons' surprising win over the 49ers last week, there's not much to look forward to in this game. The NFL should've done the people of Atlanta a favor and made this one of the Saturday games, so that at least the Chick-fil-A inside Mercedes Benz Stadium would've been open. Instead, Falcons fans will have to look elsewhere for chicken and likely entertainment. And if you're looking for chicken and entertainment, there's really only one person to turn to, the San Diego Chicken. Do the right thing NFL and send the SD Chicken to Atlanta and show those folks a good time. Don't worry, he doesn't have any prior obligations, believe me, he's a San Diego mascot, his schedule is wide open during football season.
Baltimore @ Cleveland
Two weeks ago five teams shared the league's best record at 10-2. All of them have lost at least once since then, except for the Ravens. In fact, Baltimore hasn't lost since Week 4 against the ... Browns. The very team they'll be taking on this Sunday. As if the Ravens needed any extra motivation to avenge that loss, they can also wrap up home field advantage in the AFC with a win. Considering those factors, and that the Browns have not exactly capitalized on the momentum from that early season win, this could be a bloodbath. Which is fitting, because ravens are known to bathe in blood. In fact, that's how the Black Plague started. Don't bother looking any of that up to fact check it, it's all true. But truest of all is that Baltimore will steamroll the Browns, which will create a real mess.
New Orleans @ Tennessee
Before this game even kicks off the Titans may have suffered a devastating Week 16 loss. That's because if the Buccaneers can't beat the Texans on Saturday Tennessee's hopes of winning the AFC South will be like a picture-locked movie, completely shot. But that doesn't mean they can't still make the playoffs as a wild card, so they shouldn't give up hope. They may want to temper their expectations though based on their competition this Sunday. The Saints offense has looked unstoppable over the past couple weeks, and they're playing with their eye on a first round bye. It's a pretty selfish attitude considering that the poor Titans are merely looking for any playoff spot. When will it be enough for you New Orleans, you selfish bastards? Here's a weird schedule fact: all four teams from the NFC South are playing the four teams from the AFC South this week. Which division will prevail and take the mantle of the NFL's True South? Neither. Turns out that's not a real stipulation, and the league isn't very open to unsolicited suggestions that it should be, as I found out the hard way.
Carolina @ Indianapolis
Both of these teams have been eliminated from playoff contention and are now just playing out the string on their seasons. As a result, attendance at Lucas Oil Stadium could suffer. My solution? Have the corresponding colleges, UNC and Indiana play a basketball game at halftime. And by halftime I mean when this football game was originally scheduled to kick off. And also, tell the Panthers and Colts that they don't even have to show up, because their game has now been canceled. So in summation, turn the football game into a basketball game. The only stink raised would be by Christian McCaffrey fantasy owners, but we could just spot them all 25 points and call it good. Now it's a win, win, win.
Cincinnati @ Miami
I had such high hopes for this stinkfest weeks ago. Now it's merely awful, not historically bad. The Dolphins still have an outside shot at the #1 pick in the 2020 draft, but they would have to lose here to stay alive. Do they have it in them? If you'd asked me a couple months ago I would've said absolutely, but now I'm not so sure. After having perhaps the worst first month in league history Miami has only been moderately lousy, and it's a real bummer. The Bengals have eagerly slid into the roll of the league's worst since then, and they need only to lose one of their last two to lock up that top draft choice. So I guess in this scenario the Dolphins may want the loss more. But there's a difference between wanting to lose and actually going out there, executing, and making that loss happen. And that's where Miami has been struggling at times. I mostly blame the change in quarterback for this. The Dolphins were terribly efficient with Josh Rosen as the starter. And by "terribly efficient" I mean efficient at being terrible. Ryan Fitzpatrick simply gives them too good of a chance to win. Sure it might seem fun now, but it won't come April.
Dolphins 31-24
Pittsburgh @ New York Jets
This week the Steelers announced that they are sticking with Devlin Hodges at quarterback. That could be considered a vote of confidence, but really what other choice do they have? Are they going to go back to Mason Rudolph? Maybe Hines Ward? What's Bubby Brister up to right now? Actually, as subpar as he's been there could be a strong case to be made that this is the perfect week to bring back Rudolph. One condition though, he must wear a red nose. For Rudolph it would be an opportunity to get back on the field. For the Steelers it would be a chance to try something new while still taking your lame backup QB down a peg. And isn't that the goal of any organization? Sapping your players of confidence?
New York Giants @ Washington
These proud franchises have won a combined 7 Super Bowls in their history. That's 13% of all Super Bowls. Pretty impressive. This season they're a combined 6-22. So they're only winning 21% of their games. That's not so impressive. A few hours before their NFC East counterparts battle for first place in the division, New York and Washington tussle with last place on the line. Who wants to avoid embarrassment more? Who wants their nose rubbed in it less? That's not a hypothetical question, whichever team loses will have their faces forced into their own mess by the winning team in front of whatever fans care to stay and watch. It's a little known statute for any last-place game such as this. Normally the games are so sparsely attended that it's not well-publicized. And obviously this ceremony isn't aired on television, because you can't show a man nuzzling his own poop, regardless of how bad a football season he's had.
Washington 23-20
Detroit @ Denver
Look, I wish I could dress this game up for you, but there's just not much to it. So maybe the solution would be for these teams to dress up for the game. And since they'll be playing on 12/22, why not have them all put on Santa suits? Can you imagine how ... Ugh, forget it. This is a dumb idea. Look, it's like I said, this game just doesn't have much to offer. And now that the Lions have announced that coach Matt Patricia will return next season this doesn't even have the novelty of watching a man about to lose his job right before Christmas.
Broncos 24-16
Oakland @ Los Angeles Chargers
The Raiders just played their final game in Oakland. This will be the Chargers last game in Carson. It's difficult to say which team had a more storied history in their respective location. It's much easier to forecast who will be in a better situation going forward. Come September 2020, the Raiders will be playing in a gleaming new stadium off the Las Vegas Strip, while the Chargers will be somebody's deadbeat roommate. Sure they'll be living in a nice house, but that doesn't mean they should feel good about themselves. And you know what they say, "Houseguests are like fish, I don't care how good they are at football if they're stinky and don't pay the rent." As for where these teams are at this very moment, well neither one can be feeling very good. After positioning themselves for a wild card run, the Raiders tripped up and have subsequently been trampled into the ground. They've lost four in a row and are officially eliminated from playoff contention. Meanwhile, the Chargers came roaring out of the gates, then took an immediate left turn, stampeding into the stands and killing the few fans they still had left. So it's been a great farewell tour for both squads. I wouldn't be surprised if Dignity Health Sports Park has burned to the ground by midway through the fourth quarter.
Chargers 30-26
Dallas @ Philadelphia
It's official, The NFC East champ will at least be 8-8. Phew! And here I was afraid we'd end up with a mediocre playoff team. Then again, I suppose these teams could tie here and both lose next week to finish at 7-8-1. God willing that's what we'll get. While a tie might seem unlikely, the Eagles are coming off consecutive, tight divisional games in which they eked out wins that they sorely needed. It won't be so close this week if the Cowboys come out and play like they did last week when they blew out the Rams. That's a big if though, because last week they hadn't played that well since ... Uh oh. Looks like that would have been Week 7 against these very Eagles. Of course, that game was played in Dallas, so I doubt we'll see a repeat of that 37-10 final. If for no other reason than that it's just not a very common final score. It's only happened 24 times in the history of the league. What's strange is that the Rams/Falcons game in Week 7 also finished at 37-10. What's even stranger is that the last time that score occurred before Week 7 of this season was in Week 14 of 2011 when it also happened twice! What does this mean?!? Likely nothing, but possibly everything. As for this game, who cares? Did you just read that 37-10 fact? I've got way bigger fish to fry than this pitiful NFC East title game; I've got a monumental statistical anomaly to get to the bottom of.
Arizona @ Seattle
The last four years these teams have played in Seattle the games have been wild. The final scores, starting in 2015 are: 39-32, 34-31, 26-24, and 27-24. Nearly every game the Seahawks have played this season has also been wild. Kyler Murray is a wild card at quarterback for Arizona. So saddle up queens, because we're going straight to the wild wild west! The Seahawks can still win the NFC West even with a loss here, so there could be some letdown potential. Then again, there's a chance they could win the West this Sunday with a victory over Arizona and loss by San Francisco on Saturday. So really, there's no excuse to come out flat. But as stated above, even if Seattle starts out slow, a thrilling finish is likely in the cards.
Kansas City @ Chicago
The Chiefs are looking to stay hot as they head into the playoffs, while the Bears are retreating to their cave to stay warm while they watch the playoffs. I have a good idea who will come out on top, but let's check with Cris Collinsworth before I make my pick:
Those guys do sound fun, and focused.
Green Bay @ Minnesota
The Vikings can clinch a playoff spot with a win. What they can't do is clinch a division title. As long as the Packers win in Detroit in Week 17 they'll be the NFC North champions, even if they fall to Minnesota here. And that's exactly what I think will happen. The Vikings have more to play for, and they're currently the only team in the league who's undefeated at home. The only thing working against them, aside from Dalvin Cook's absence, is that it's seemingly impossible for Kirk Cousins to win on Monday nights. He's 0-8 for his career, so it's to the point now where you can't just ignore it as an anomaly. The narrative is that Cousins can't perform when the lights are brightest, but he's won on Thursday and Sunday night this season, so that doesn't fully explain the issue. He must just hate Mondays. It's understandable, lots of us feel the same; Garfield most famously so. In fact, maybe the key to get past these Monday blues would be for Cousins to take a page out of Garfield's book and eat an entire lasagna by himself prior to the game. Sure, that might be a carbo overload, but anything is worth a shot at this point.
Vikings 24-20

I love breathing the crisp fall air, feeling the cool breeze against my face. I notice there are a lot of people in the park today. Watching the children playing, a movement catches my eye. I stare at the silent fluttering of the red, orange, and yellow leaves drop to the ground. The various park noise magnifies as images of a year ago begin racing in my mind. One, then another, then another… oh my God, why has this started again? Oh, yes, the colors, red and orange and yellow, bleeding together. My mind is transported back to the war. That damn war! It's hateful tentacles still grip me; like a sea monster that won't release! It refuses me peace. Yes, that is it. It refuses me. "You must not forget…you must not forget…" Please, I just want to forget! The same gut wrenching turmoil builds inside of me and I can feel the hard knot inside my stomach. It makes me want to retch. Vomit out all those images. Pleeaassee…..STOP!
A child rides his bike in front of me and pulls my mind back from the war to the here and to the now. Yes, I am home, finally home. Home sweet home. I am so happy my wife is beside me. I am so lucky she has stayed with me. I am so grateful. I know it hasn't been easy on her.
A young girl giggles as she chases a green ball in front of a bench where an old woman is sitting. She's doing something with her hands. She's making something. That's when the color catches my eye. Red. I notice she is making a small red sweater. Then I remember. Oh yes, I remember. An image slaps me across the face and my throat feels tight and restrictive. The tears well up in my eyes and I cannot hold them back. That gut-wrenching image refuses me peace; a small child lying on the ground, lifeless and bloodied, wearing a red sweater. The restriction in my throat releases and, I sob.
I was hoping that taking this walk in the park would help Bill. The fall colors are so beautiful here. The trees are dressed in their fall finest. The children are playing against a background of grass, green and freshly mowed. Most of the flowers are still attired in their bright colors, making a stunning impression.
There is a hotdog stand near and I can smell the warm weiners mixed with spicy mustard. It reminds me I am hungry and my stomach growls, but I have been watching my weight and restricting my meals. The hotdog vendor is dressed in denim jeans and a pristine white shirt with a bow-tie.
The children are laughing as they chase their ball, trying to keep it away from some, kicking it back and forth to others. Some type of game, I surmise.
There is an old woman sitting on the bench and knitting. As I look further I notice she is making a small red sweater. It occurs to me that I have forgotten to buy my new-born niece a gift. What should I get her? I decide clothes would be a wise choice. I hope Bill and I will have a baby someday.
I feel Bill's hand becoming warm and sweaty and hear him crying. I realize it has started again. I feel useless. I have no idea how to help him find peace since he has returned from the war. He is just so different now. He is getting worse. I stop walking and turn to him, "I love you, you know. I want to help you feel better." He looks at me through watery blue eyes, smiles, and hugs me.
I notice a young couple walking toward me. He is crying and she is hugging him. My mind takes me back to my William, my dear husband killed in the war. I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I sure do miss him." Letting out a sigh, I return to my knitting.
Cat, do you think it's a bit much?
Nice! I like how you wrapped it around back to the war. I don't know if you care about spelling, but I think it's "tentacles". The small details like the hotdog stand are helpful to setting the scene.
Thank you! I need to go in and change that. I should have spellchecked it. Thank you again!
I don't think it's too much, Joy. If anything, I might edit out some of Bill's first para and maybe break it up a bit.
If you get a chance, will you take another look. I made some changes based on your suggestions.
Cat, can you be a litle more specific? That would help me a lot.
LOL! I didn't expect it either. 🙂 It just came up at the last moment.
You have given this whole scene a different meaning. Something that I could not even think of. Great job!
Thank you! I hope it didn't come out to weird.
Not at all! It was really nice.
I lliked the connection between the characters in the scene. I had a little trouble keeping up with which one was sharing their perspective but maybe that is just me being tired at the end of a long day. I liked the ending . The old woman knitting seemed very real to me.
Thank you Tildy! I should have specified which character was talking. I think I will go back and do that now. Thanks!
I'm no expert, but it does seem clearer to me now!
This was excellent! You managed to really get into the person of each character! The emotions and characters seemed very real to me. And I agree, the way you wrapped the characters together was excellent! Well done!!
Thank you, that is quite a compliment! I appreciate your reading and commenting.
Yes, I love the last part. That old woman looks like one of those people from the seniors house who comes to the park for her knitting. The other thing is I wish you could have showed an evidence the old woman saw about the young man (that he was a soldier) to make her remember about her husband who died in the war, who i guess was also a soldier. Other than that the entire story is interesting.
Thank you for reading and commenting! I really appreciate it. I will look into your suggestion. It might actually work better than "coincidence" as I have it now.

[Review] 'Groupers' experiments with an unfulfilling revenge fantasy
I could have loved Groupers, the debut feature from writer/director Anderson Cowan. It has everything that I like in a movie, a good hook, good cinematography, and good acting. But the uneven expansion of the main idea and the addition of characters two-thirds of the way through the movie left me wanting something different than what I got...
...Groupers features homophobic high-school bullies Brad and Dylan (Peter Mayer-Klepchick and Cameron Duckett) who get fake IDs and pick up a beautiful woman at a bar. The woman turns out to be Meg (Nicole Dambro), who has plans to experiment on the two young men. The next morning they find themselves tied up and stranded in the empty deep end of a swimming pool in a vacant neighborhood. Meg seeks to have the young men prove that homosexuality is a choice through a sadistic experiment. If they can both get erections at the same time while only thinking of each other, they are free to leave. Why? Well, this experiment seeks to put an end to the old assertion of homophobes everywhere while serving as a little revenge for Meg's brother Orin (Jesse Pudles) who the two have been tormenting for years.
From there the story expands and takes stabs at being funny. Meg's taunts to Brad and Dylan, while they are in their vulnerable position, brings dark humor to the situation, but once Orin is introduced the humor stops landing. The introduction of new characters brings tension and unease but that quickly fizzles in a movie that isn't particularly tense unless you, too, are a homophobic jock.
Perhaps the main issue with the movie is not being explicit with who the audience is supposed to sympathize with. Are we supposed to sympathize with the homophobes or with the crazy chick experimenting on them? Before the reveal that Brad and Dylan are bullies to Meg's brother, the movie tries to portray these two teens as unfortunate horny boys. Then we're on Meg's side, getting revenge for her wronged brother. But when a mysterious man appears and takes interest in the two tied up teens, it seems like they're in real danger.
Nicole Dambro delivers a solid performance as Meg, being both darkly humorous and full of anger, while Jesse Pudles makes Orin a strangely disjointed character in a way that feels misplaced. Peter Mayer-Klepchick and Cameron Duckett both give good performances despite the limits of the situation. The best performance comes toward the end of the movie when Durant (Terrance Wentz) shows up and gives a surprisingly nuanced characterization to a character who could easily have been as stereotypical as the homophobic jocks at the center of the narrative.
Scenes with the contraption Brad and Dylan find themselves in, while not completely exposing the extent of their bondage until Meg explains the whole situation to them, help the payoff of the reveal later. The use of an old phonograph playing records helps with the pacing of the film and the music it plays helps to bring a little tension to scenes in which Brad and Dylan are left tied up alone in the pool. The narrative doesn't flow in the way it's presented, instead of chronologically, the director backtracks and shows things from characters as they are introduced. This is not a bad thing, per se, but I find the use of title cards distracting and unnecessary.
Every bullied kid dreams about getting revenge against their bullies. But this revenge fantasy falls flat. Not only does it rely on a few outdated stereotypes, but it also does not set itself up for the ending which it delivers. All-in-all an enjoyable movie, but it doesn't fulfill the promises the premise sets up.
Groupers tests you on VOD September 27th from Global Digital Releasing.
