  1. Minnesota Vikings – 1 PM CBS 12/10

That tenth win is pretty huge. It is a better bet that you are playoff bound. To earn it, the Panthers get to face off with their nemesis from early season last year. Except the Panthers have signed like five Vikings guys to the roster and Adrian Peterson is not likely to be at the game. It will also be important to see if Teddy Bridgewater or Sam Bradford is leading the team at this point in the year.

Panthers – (10-3)

  1. Green Bay Packers – 1 PM Fox 12/17

The cheese stands alone. The Panthers beat Aaron Rodgers in a close run thing two years ago. Now Julius Peppers will be handing balls to kids instead of swatting them away from Cam. I like the potential of a late season form Jonathan Stewart against the Packers defense, but I am also concerned about Rodgers being Rodgers. After all Rodgers without Olivia Munn = 1 Super Bowl, Rodgers with Munn = 0 Super Bowls. There’s still time for him to take you back, Olivia…please…just for one game.

Panthers – (11-3)

  1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – 1 PM Fox 12/24

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring…because you went in for that Luke Kuechly CPI security thing. The last two or three games will important for the Panthers because they could decide things like bye weeks and home field advantage. Then there is the fact that the Panthers will likely have lost three straight times to the Bucs at this point. Can’t have that.
