No. 5 Los Angeles Rams at No. 4 Carolina Panthers, 4:30 p.m. ET, FOX
No. 7 Green Bay Packers at No. 2 Chicago Bears, 8:00 p.m. ET, Amazon Prime Video

The LA Rams are favored by 10 points over the Carolina Panthers–even though the Panthers beat the Rams earlier in the season.

The Packers and the Bears both won a game against each other so the Bears being 1 1/2 point favorites over the Packers makes some sense since the Bears are home for this game.
I’m picking the Rams and Packers to win. How about you? Who do you think will win these Playoff games?
Go Panthers! Go Bears!
Bob, Go Seahawks! Oops…the Seahawks are on a Bye.
I’m usually wrong, but I am definitely picking the Rams too. The Bears should win, but like you, I think the Packers will.
Jeff, millions of suckers will be betting these games on Fan Duel and Draft Kings and BetMGM. I find Life is risky enough without adding Sports Betting to it…
I’ve got no horse in this race, but I’m going Rams and Bears. I’ll have the games on, but today I’m making lasagna which means I’ll be in the kitchen for a good portion of the earlier game.
Yum. Love lasagna.
Jeff, I have a friend who “tests” every new Italian restaurant we eat at by ordering lasagna. “If they can’t make a good lasagna, they can’t make anything taste good,” he expounds.
Deb, like Jeff, I’m a big fan of Lasagna! Diane usually makes in on Christmas Eve because Patrick and Katie love it even more than I do!
Yes, like your friend, I often “test” a restaurant by ordering lasagna. Yesterday, however, we went to a local restaurant we’ve patronized the last few years, and as soon as we sat down she recognized Jackie and asked if she wanted a Caesar salad. For once, I ordered the same thing as Jackie, shrimp marinara. I love their sauce, full of tomatoes and garlic. Yum.
Jeff, Diane and I prefer Italian and American food restaurants. I can eat anything, but Diane is picky. I eat Chinese and Mexican food, too, but Diane will have none of it.
A bit OT:
We often make Lasagne at home – my wife does the sauces and I arrange them with the sheets. Usually we mak a large lasagne for our guests and several smaler ones just for us which after baking them we put in the freezer. And lasagne reheated is one of the dishes that tasts s good as fresh one.
And a few years ago I found a variation:
I add some green peppercorns tp the white sauce – that makes for a wonderful meal.
And even more OT:
The family of my wife’s nephew (He’s a professor at Vanderbilt university and we visited him on our last holiday in the USA 15 years ago) comes regularly to their grandfather’s home here in Hungary and we gave them my homemade lasagne, The grandson likes to cook and looked everywhere for green pepper, but didn’t find it in the stores. So as a present I gave him a small bag of these that I had brought from Germany – he was so happy!
Sorry for the many typing mistakes!
Wolf, sometimes the keyboard gets the better of me, too!
I’m going to a restaurant today that has a special dish. It’s a big round of cheese that the put hot noodles on top of and saturated the noodles in the cheese. I’m not sure if anything else is added but it’s wildly popular.
About football, I don’t have a dog in that
Maggie, that Special Dish would tempt me to try it!
It was delicious
Maggie, it sounded delicious!
