4 Unit Play. #12 Take Houston -6 over Seattle (Sunday 1 pm Fox) The Texans will not be making the playoffs this season but they have too much talent to throw in the towel for the rest of the season. They are a couple of missed field goals away from being in playoff contention and will likely make a coaching change at the end of this season. The Texans now play the Seahawks, a team that is just 1-5 on the road this season. Seattle never does well when traveling east and the time difference will once again catch up with them. Houston gets back on track with a double digit victory. Houston 31, Seattle 20.

4 Unit Play. #28 Take Oakland +1 over Washington (Sunday 4:05 pm Fox) This is a battle of team that will likely have new coaches next year this afternoon in Oakland, CA. The Raiders really have some impressive victories this season against Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and Philadelphia and that is a lot more then what the Redskins bring to the table. Washington did everything right last week except finish and the Saints found a way to beat them in overtime. Oakland has played better with QB Gradkowski and expect them to take care of business in the black hole. The Skins must make a long flight and it will cost them in the end. Oakland 21, Washington 16.

5 Unit Play. #33 Take Arizona -3 ― n Francisco (Monday 8:30 pm ESPN) Teams in the NFC West had a chance to put away the Cardinals early in the season but that did not happen and now the birds have turned it around in a major way. Arizona has won four of their last five games and is 5-1 on the road this season. Their only road loss came at the end to Tennessee in a game that Kurt Warner did not play. The 49ers saw their playoffs hopes end last week with their loss to Seattle and now they are just playing out the season. QB Smith has looked good at times, but just does not win games and that is the bottom line in this business. Arizona has too many weapons and they lock up the division on Monday Night Football. Arizona 34, San Francisco 20.
