NFL Week 15 Schedule: Top 5 Games You Don't Want to Miss

Dec 14, 2012 12:18 PM EST

NFL's Week 15 is one you don't want to miss beginning with pivotal games at 1 p.m. ET. I know you might want to watch your favorite NFL team in action, but these are the most important gaves with true value as the season begins to wrap up. 

Denver Broncos vs. Baltimore Ravens- 1 p.m. ET
With Tim Tebow at the helm, the Broncos were categorized as a defensive minded club. However, now that Peyton is running the offense, the Broncos are all about their offense. They take on team known for their tough defense in the Ravens. They expect Ray Lewis to be back as the Ravens attempt to lock up the AFC North. Any game with Manning in it is a must watch, but this could be a possible AFC Championship showdown.

Green Bay Packers vs. Chicago Bears- 1 p.m. ET 
I can't keep a straight face while writing about this matchup. NFC North rivals square off in this one. The Bears can tie for first place with a win, however, a loss would basically hand the Packers the division. Bears will have the crowd at Soldier Field roaring behind them. 

Indianapolis Colts vs. Houston Texans- 1 p.m. ET
The Texans hold a two-game lead over the Colts in the AFC South. A win would put them three games over meaning they take the division. Pretty sure Andrew Luck wouldn't mind a Wild Card spot, but the guy is so competitive he might just take the Colts all the way. He has a chance to keep their division hopes alive with a win on Sunday. 

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Dallas Cowboys- 4:25 p.m. ET 
The Steelers and Cowboys are battling for playoff position in their respective conferences. They are both 7-6 and pretty much the loser of this game will have close to no hope unless the teams they are chasing lose as well. Can Romo come through for his 'Boys? Is Big Ben healthy enough for a playoff push? You will have to tune in to find out. 

San Francisco 49ers vs. New England Patriots- 8:20 p.m. ET
This probably should have been last year's Super Bowl. Many felt the Giants got in by luck and this should have been the matchup. The way the Patriots are playing they look like they might make another appearance. The 49ers need a victory as the Seahawks are right behind them. The Patriots are willing to take down any team in their way. The 49ers have a tough defense and the Patriots have the best offense. This is probably the game of the week. Last time they squared off was in 2008. 

Other possible captivating matchups include the New York Giants vs. Atlanta Falcons and New York Jets vs... I'm just kidding. Even though the Jets have a chance to make the playoffs, I still wouldn't want to see their games let alone recommend them to fans.
