Your Thursday nighter sees Pittsburgh (5-4) traveling to Cleveland (3-6) in hopes of ending the Browns' playoff hopes. Big Sunday games include Houston (6-3) at Baltimore (7-2), New England (8-1) at Philadelphia (5-4), and ... um, Chicago (4-5) at the Rams (5-4) in prime time?

The afternoon and prime-time games include some dandies with two teams in playoff contention. Rams-Steelers! Packers-Panthers! Vikings-Cowboys! And on Monday night, perhaps the biggest game of the year so far, as the Seahawks (7-2) visit San Francisco to take on the undefeated 49ers.

With a pair of division leaders (Cowboys and Ravens) on byes, Week 8 is a pretty dreary lineup.

Week 7 kicks off tonight with an AFC West matchup as the suddenly struggling Chiefs, losers of two in a row, travel to Denver to take on the Broncos. Big Sunday games include Houston (4-2) at Indianapolis (3-2), Minnesota (4-2) at Detroit (2-2-1), and Baltimore (4-2) at Seattle (5-1).

Week 6 kicks off with a snoozer, as Daniel Jones leads the injury-riddled Giants into Foxborough to face the undefeated Patriots. The rest of the weekend, however, looks stacked.

Week 5 kicks off with a doozy as the 3-1 Rams visit Seattle to play the 3-1 Seahawks on Thursday night.

Week 4 begins tonight with the Eagles traveling to Green Bay looking for a badly needed win against the undefeated Packers. Sunday games include two battles between unbeaten teams as New England visits Buffalo and Kansas City heads to Detroit. Your prime-time games pit Dallas against New Orleans, which could be a playoff preview, and Cincinnati against Pittsburgh, which can't. Use this thread to discuss them all. 

Yay! Football! It starts tonight with Green Bay at Chicago. Other prime-time games this week include Pittsburgh at New England on Sunday night, then Houston at New Orleans AND Denver at Oakland in a Monday night double-header.
