NFL WEEK 14: Our official predictions for who wins this weekend

We're entering the final month of regular-season football, which means games are simultaneously more - and less - important than ever.

For every important divisional game with playoff seeding implications, over these next four months we'll also have games like the Jets vs. the 49ers (four wins between them!) and the Browns vs. the Bengals. Games, in other words, that couldn't be more meaningless.

But why focus on the bad stuff? Week 14 is notable because it has a particularly great slate of primetime games, which has been a big criticism of the league this year.

Seriously, look at this:

Thursday: Chiefs (9-3) vs. Raiders (10-2), first place in the AFC West on the line.

Sunday: Cowboys (11-1) vs. Giants (8-4). Important playoff implications for the Giants, and the Cowboys are the best team in football.

Monday: Ravens (7-5) at Patriots (10-2). Bitter AFC rivals with plenty of recent history.

There's an argument to be made that the league should get rid of Thursday night games, or maybe even Monday instead. But when the games are as good as these, you won't hear anyone complaining.

LAST WEEK: 8-6

SEASON: 94-90-5
