NFL 2023 Season

[zinfamous]

(1) Cleveland

(2) Buffalo

(3) KC

(4) Dallas

(5) LA

(6) Philly


Every one of these games looks to be a decent match-up too.

I don't follow this stuff, but Philly fan friend told me last night that AJ Brown deleted all association with the birds from all of his social media yesterday?

hmmmm

2% is realer than any point in NFL history. Bills-Browns AFC Championship isn't that crazy at all. If Buffalo, Kansas City, and Cleveland all win this weekend (AKA no upsets), that sets up Browns-Ravens and Bills-Chiefs. Being in Buffalo and having already beaten the Chiefs this season, they would probably again be the favorites. So it would only take a Browns team upsetting a Ravens team, something they've already done once this season, and in Baltimore no less (though barely).

The Lions would need to take care of the Rams first (favorite), then they'd have to probably visit the Cowboys, where they were one misinformed eligible receiver away from winning in week 17.

None of that sounds particularly outlandish.

Ravens are the hottest team by far right now, so I think it's a longshot, but of course they will be too rested, maybe, and Jackson has a bad history with that. Also, Flacco tends to show up for the upsets!

Leave it to ATOT, come to the football thread for an English lesson.

Hey, would you rather a discussion about zoning laws?

I see what you did there...

Bills game moved to Monday

hmmmm

He's officially declared out for Monday. He's been upset about the offense for weeks during the team's tailspin but has been denying it to the media.

No more English arguments here. Next time I play Powerball, I will tell everyone that I've got a "real chance." Everyone should feel free to say silly or stupid things ITT, including yours truly.

Should they win, their opponent has an extra 2 days to rest/prepare. They were already at a 1-day disadvantage. Oh well. This makes a Steelers upset less likely, at least.

Mildly disappointed but the NFL risking people's lives for a football game just isn't worth it.... it's the smart move.

Dolphins Chiefs game ready to be called by end of 3rd quarter. Guess I will go to bed early.

So much for a "real chance" of a Lake Erie championship week.

Dolphins Chiefs game ready to be called by end of 3rd quarter. Guess I will go to bed early.

Completely embarrassing performance by the Dolphins. Easily a 30 point blowout if their defense didn't keep holding the Chiefs to FGs. Dolphins are in a gross spot with Tua. If you believe his regular season numbers, he's good enough to get $150M in guaranteed money. A blockbuster $50M/season extension will also ruin their cap situation once the new money kicks in.

I will have to admit that the no commercial 4th quarter of the KC/Miami game was kinda nice...

LOL. Can't handle the fact that no one agreed with you? You poor little thing.

If it helps, I'll be cheering for your Packers big time. Down with Dallas!

I already said I'm done arguing over English, and have no beef with you.

That doesn't help at all, I want guys with accurate predictions on my team's side.

Feel free to celebrate your solidarity with Torn Mind.

FWIW I like the Bills. I don't know if this is the year Josh Allen breaks through, but championship windows don't last very long in the modern NFL.

Never made a prediction, my dude. Maybe you really do need that English lesson.

Damn, there really is a first for everything.

The #7 seed is 0-6 since being added a few years back. They have lost by the following margins: 3, 3, 12, 16, 18, 21.

What do the 3s have in common? They're both against Buffalo. If any 2 seed is going to be the first to lose to a 7, it's Buffalo. Can't win without adding a few gray hairs.

GO PACK GO ?!?


(I feel so dirty!)

 

[SteveGrabowski]

God Dallas is Green Bay's bitch. Packers are 5-0 at the Cowboys' stadium and well on their way to 6-0.

 

[MrSquished]

so far this has been such a fun game to watch. Jordan Love looks quite damn good, seems he is riding the momentum he brought with a really solid last 8 games of the season. it's easy to root for the Pack against the Cowputzes, not like their starting qb is Kaaron or Welfare Queen Brett anymore.

 

[MrSquished]

and a pick 6 lolol

my friend is a cowboys fan. I said sure, they look pretty good this year, but they'll most likely be one and done in the playoffs as usual, with Dak.

I figured they'd make it to the NFC championship game before getting curbstomped by the 49ers again. Hell of a time to lay an egg at home where they were undefeated in the regular season (though really didn't deserve that win over Detroit anyways).

Ain’t it the truth, although my dislike of Dallas is much greater than GB, esp since that twink AA-Ron left.

Fair point .... interesting how much better the team is without that a$$-clown too!

 

[MrSquished]

While I thought there was a good chance Dallas choked again, I did not think it would be this bad. But what a beautiful day of football. Let's go Lions in the late game

I wonder if McCarthy survives this.

The Lions? They are a good story but I’ve still got a soft spot for the Rams…leftover sentimentality from the Roman Gabriel days.

 

[Meghan54]

And I hope GB rubs Dallas’s nose in this. Piss off Jerry Jones. LOL.
