Los Angeles Rams over the Cleveland Browns

The Cleveland Browns are the sixth seed in the AFC with a 7-4 record and go on the road to play the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams are fighting for a playoff spot in the NFC so they will certainly be fighting for a win but the Browns defense is one of the best in the league and gives Cleveland a great chance in this matchup.

The Browns do have a big question mark at quarterback as Dorian Thompson-Robinson in concussion protocol. If he were to miss this game, it would be Joe Flacco getting the start in his first snaps this season.

Tennessee Titans over Indianapolis Colts

The Indianapolis Colts are currently in the seventh seed and the final spot of the AFC playoffs if the season were to end today. The Colts have been a surprising team as they have remained in contention even after losing their starting quarterback Anthony Richardson and beginning the year without Jonathan Taylor.

The bad news for the Colts is that Taylor is going to be out the next few weeks after having thumb surgery and turn to former Buffalo Bills running back Zack Moss to lead the run game. This is a road game for the Colts but the Titans have struggled this year and is another unlikely game to go in the Bills favor.
