No time to waste.

N.Y. Jets (5-2) at Detroit (2-5), 1 p.m. Our bad. We accidentally named the Jets the best team in the NFL last week, when we knew it was New England all along. BOTTOM LINE: N.Y. Jets by 4.
Miami (4-3) at Baltimore (5-2), 1 p.m. Do or die for the Dolphins. BOTTOM LINE: Baltimore by 5.
San Diego (3-5) at Houston (4-3), 1 p.m. Here's a swift kick in the Pittsburgh for San Diego fans: the Chargers beat the Titans last week, sneak past the Texans, then trounce Denver next week, and suddenly Norv Turner is no longer in danger of being fired, just when they though they were finally rid of him. BOTTOM: San Diego by 2.
Tampa Bay (5-2) at Atlanta (5-2), 1 p.m. Josh Freeman is the greatest quarterback to ever have played the game. Rockin' the Upset Special of the Week. BOTTOM LINE: Tampa Bay by 3.
New Orleans (5-3) at Carolina (1-6), 1 p.m. Vegas is done with Carolina. BOTTOM LINE: New Orleans by 6.
New England (6-1) at Cleveland (2-5), 1 p.m. No offense, Cleveland fans, but the win over the Saints was the "Buster Douglas moment" of 2010. BOTTOM LINE: New England by 5.
Arizona (3-4) at Minnesota (2-5), 1 p.m. How does Brett Favre top the previous weeks' drama: makes last minute decision not to retire; texts photos of his lil' field general to hot reporter; gains and loses a superstar receiver; plays with broken ankle. . . What's next? He decapitates himself prior to the kickoff and takes the field as the first headless quarterback in NFL history? BOTTOM LINE: Minnesota by 7.
N.Y. Giants (5-2) at Seattle (4-3), 4:05 p.m. The Giants are going to surge up Puget Sound like an Eli Manning salami. Or is it tsunami? Whatever. BOTTOM LINE: N.Y. Giants by 6.
Kansas City (5-2) at Oakland (4-4), 4:15 p.m. Two bad teams trying to look good. BOTTOM LINE: Oakland by 2.
Indianapolis (5-2) at Philadelphia (4-3), 4:15 p.m. Take some time to digest this: New England, No. 1 seed; Indianapolis, No. 2 seed. BOTTOM LINE: Indianapolis by 2.
Dallas (1-6) at Green Bay (5-3), 8:20 p.m. The perfect scenario: Randy Moss lasts a week with the Titans, cuts ties and signs with the Cowboys, where he plays out the remainder of the season as a player/head coach. Who would NOT watch that? BOTTOM LINE: Green Bay by 7.
Pittsburgh (5-2) at Cincinnati (2-5), 8:30 p.m. (Mon.) James Harrison giving back his 2010 salary, one play at a time. BOTTOM LINE: Pittsburgh by 2.
