Somehow the Falcons (5-7) are just a half-game behind the Buccaneers in the NFC South.
FALCONS, 20-16

Two losing teams with banged-up QBs takes the sizzle out of this rivalry.
PACKERS, 24-17
Jacksonville at Detroit (-1)

Dak Prescott and the Cowboys (8-3) will be well-rested after a Thanksgiving win while the Colts are coming off a short week.
