The 2025 NFL season is coming to a close, and with that, the playoffs approach.
Christmas Day games are back, and Netflix is the coach.
Who will go head-to-head, and who will come out on top?
Who will spend the holiday with an L, and who will let the jingle bell rock?
The Cowboys have been eliminated, but their offense is still elite.
Dak Prescott and George Pickens continue to eat.
Their defense has made strides, but they’re still not igniting,
A playoff push, stopped by Eagles, and a strike of lightning.
The Commanders are officially out of contention,
Injuries have delayed Jayden Daniels’ ascension.
Josh Johnson takes snaps under center,
To end an underwhelming December.
Like a star on a Christmas tree,
Dallas comes out on top, thanks to Prescott, Pickens, and CeeDee.
A year ago, nearly to the week,
The Lions and Vikings met for the top seed in the NFC.
The Vikings’ playoff hopes are dead, just like the Houston Oilers,
They still have a chance to play Christmas spoiler.
The Lions were a powerhouse, not too long ago,
Ben Johnson took away that magic when he went to Chicago.
Their offense has been unimpressive, but they can always score touchdowns.
Anyone can strike: Jahmyr Gibbs, Jameson Williams, or Amon-Ra St. Brown.
The Lions need to keep their hopes alive.
They’ll win this game, hope for a Green Bay loss, and try to survive.
The dynasty has crumbled, and the Chiefs’ playoff hopes with it.
Patrick Mahomes and Gardner Minshew are injured, a third-string QB takes over on Christmas.
Chris Oladokun makes his first NFL start,
Against a defense that might rip him apart.
The Broncos were unbeatable, their 11-game win streak,
Up in smoke, as the Jacksonville Jaguars made them look weak.
Fighting for the AFC’s top spot, Denver needs a bounce-back.
The Chiefs just lost to the Tennessee Titans; this is a different kind of attack.
The Broncos win at Arrowhead, to Kansas City’s dismay,
The best team in the AFC? Argue with Drake Maye.
This season has had its ups and downs, that much is clear,
NFL football on Christmas? Now that brings about cheer.
The games could be bad, maybe so bad they’re grand,
Happy Holidays to all, from the team at Stadium Rant.
