NFL Week 14 Picks: Underdogs with Everything to Lose

There are only four games left in the regular season, and every snap of every game matters.

This regular season, which will be remembered for the dominance of the Green Bay Packers and the rash of injuries that damaged a number of teams, is about to swallow up a few more teams whole.

Here is a look at a few underdogs with everything to lose this week.

Titans (+3.5) vs. Saints

A lot of people aren't paying attention to the Tennessee Titans, but at 7-5 they're only one game out of the sixth wild-card spot.

That is the only wild-card spot up for grabs as things stand now. The Pittsburgh Steelers, at 9-3, have a strangle hold on the fifth spot while the Bengals hold onto the sixth seed due to a conference tiebreaker.

This week Tennessee will host the 9-3 Saints in a matchup that won't help them nearly as much as it can hurt them.

The Titans can't gain ground on the tiebreaker with Cincinnati but can fall even further behind should the Raiders, Jets and/or Bengals win.

Bears (+3.5) at Broncos

Chicago won't be mathematically eliminated with a loss against Tim Tebow and the Broncos, but it will be a crippling loss nonetheless.

The Bears have a lot to worry about with their injury situation.

It has caused a lot of drama so far this week, and it isn't going to end this week.

If Chicago falters yet again out West, it might be the last time we talk about them with relevancy.

Giants (+3) vs. Cowboys 

Big Blue knows they can beat anyone in this league, and they nearly proved it last week against the unbeaten Packers. In fact, they should've.

But as things stand now they still control their own destiny, but cannot afford a loss to the Dallas Cowboys this week. It will drop the Giants back a full two games and give the Cowboys the advantage going into their season finale matchup in Week 17. 

A loss this week means the Giants have to hope beyond hope for help elsewhere to have a shot at the postseason.
