Just three weeks remain in the 2022-23 NFL regular season, and there’s still plenty to play for.

The majority of Week 16’s games will be played on Saturday, Christmas Eve. Highlight matchups include the 8-5-1 New York Giants taking on the 11-3 Minnesota Vikings, the 10-4 Cincinnati Bengals battling the 7-7 New England Patriots, and in the afternoon slot, the 13-1 Philadelphia Eagles (sans Jalen Hurts) traveling to Texas to play the 10-4 Dallas Cowboys.

Christmas Day features three matchups, but only one of the six teams playing holds a winning record. Still, Green Bay Packers at Miami Dolphins provides some intrigue, and Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will still draw a crowd in the night slot against the Arizona Cardinals. You can’t fault the NFL schedule makers for expecting Denver Broncos at Los Angeles Rams to be a good matchup, but it shapes up to be the least intriguing and least consequential game of the day.

Read on for my Week 16 NFL Picks. If you’d like to debate or discuss any picks, or want to follow for more weekly NFL content including Picks and Power Rankings, be sure to connect with Sak Sports Blog on Twitter or on Facebook!
