So how about that football

[JujuFish]

And Pittsburgh takes the lead!

Falcons missed the tying FG, Chiefs win. There goes those almost nonexistent hopes, haha.

 

[Torn Mind]

Not likely I'm afraid.


Also I wouldn't count the Steelers out yet ... Rivers has a lot of choke potential.

Cowboys might steal the prize like a ninja, and no one will be sad.

browns lose to jets lol

it's torment

but we would've gotten killed by anyone else in the playoffs anyway

Luckily i didn't see the game today.

I'm glad to see the improvement they've made this year but yeah, they're no playoff team. Bring a few things together for next year & thinks look good.

i guess the browns can still make it if they win next week against the steelers, or the colts lose against jacksonville LOL

(then again jacksonville did beat indy in week 1)

Hey, they tanked their way to Trevor Lawrence, so now they can win without worry. Who knows? Hah.

Yeah, i figured they weren't out of it with the loss & i see all they need to do is win, but shit, all they have to do is beat the Steelers... not an easy task. Maybe they won't put up much of a fight since they clinched with the win over the Colts but i doubt it.
They'd have to play their asses off to get a win in the play-offs with the way the AFC is.

yeah the browns defense is way too bad on a good day right now to have a chance of winning it all

 

[Svnla]

LOL @ Cowboys is still alive for the playoff. Now I will have to listen to all the Cowboys fans at work for another week or more.

Ye, me too, I actually hope they do get in so I can witness the mauling when they have to play a real contender, Dalton
has been playing pretty well the past few weeks though it won't matter, that defense is trash.

 

[JEDI]

Once again, the fate of Redskins is in their hands.
How often do mediocre teams get TWO chances of clinching the Conference by just winning once?

Of course if they lose, they are out of the playoffs.

heck, If Washington loses to Eagles and Giants beat Cowboys, then it'll be a 3way tie for the East conference at 6-10 with the Redskins out of it because Giants swept them in head to head.

Who would have thought a 6-10 team would not only be playing in the playoffs but be placed higher than better Wildcard teams.

 

[IronWing]

Packers won and they didn't even suck while doing so.

 

[MrSquished]

The Giants can clinch the division next week with a win and some other teams losing. They can also lose and pick as high as 3rd in the draft, if a bunch of other teams lose. Unlikely but still crazy such a scenario even exists.

No one really wants to win the NFC East.

I swear though, the Cowboys fans would be all optimistic and stuff even with a 7-9 record because they are that cringe.

Well, the Haskins experiment ended pretty fast. WFT pulled the plug.

A week too late unfortunately. They would have had a much better chance of winning yesterday if he was not quarterbacking.

I know THAT feeling with Jones starting ....

Darn...from starting QB to out on the street within 2 years. At least he would get pay a few million dollars. Let see how long that money will last for him.

Remind me of Russell from LSU to Raiders. First pick to out on the street in a few short years.

WFT: No...you do it...

Cowboys: No...you ....

Giants: No...I ain't touch that...

Eagles: I will touch it next year....maybe

Interestingly, both announcers pumped up Aaron Rodgers for MVP. Yes, ARod has the superior passing stats but it's still Mahomes' award to lose because team record is such a huge factor. I don't know what the sportsbooks say, but IMO Mahomes is still about -200 to win. It will be awkward if ARod posts a QB rating of 117+, leads the league in ESPN QBR, and finishes runner-up.

The game was arguably closer than the final score indicates. Leading 19-14, the side judge absolutely whiffed on Aaron Jones stepping onto the sideline (SJ was looking right at Jones' feet unobstructed, WTF??). Packers smartly ran the next play quickly and Vrabel never had a chance to challenge. Packers then scored a TD and breezed after that.

EDIT:
Looks like I'm wrong, the sportbooks now have ARod as about -200 to win the MVP award. Mahomes may not play the final game at all.

captain one week, on the street the next

I see tonight's MNF will be on ABC also

 

[MrSquished]

I don't think any NFC East team should be in the playoffs. If you go under .500 you are eliminated from the playoffs and the next highest seed takes your place.

I understand the sentiment, but if that were the case, the Beast Quake never happens.
I don't have a major problem with the NFC Least champs getting trounced in two weeks. It'll be worth it for the lulz.

Agreed. The even worse thing is if one of those bad team makes it as NFC East Division Champ, then the team can stay home and host the Wild Card team with A LOT better record. Mind blows, eh?
