All a team has to do is make it to the playoffs. Teams with little or zero experience tend to fold under the pressure. This year any 7 seed could win it.
I like Denver and New England and are happy for them but does either team want to see buffalo or Baltimore at home? If it comes to that I think the road team would be favored. If KC sneaks in same scenario

I have zero interest in seeing the Pats face Baltimore or Buffalo in the playoffs period
Looks to me that in the AFC it will be a 3-way finish for the top WildCard spot. If the ball bounces wrong the Bill could be playing an entire post-season on the road while the Chiefs watch them from the comfort of their couches!! Realistically, we all should have expected that because all good thing eventually come to an end. That surprise for me is that it all ended so soon. The Kansas City fall has been dramatic with the only thing keeping them from the cellar is that the Raiders suck really bad. The Bills are a different story. I assumed they would have their usual late November revival and get themselves into playoff form, but it looks like that won't happen.
Other members are more in tune with what's going on than me, but it seems like an era of QB's have reached their peak and are now on the downside of their playing career. It started with Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers and continues in Baltimore, KC, and Buffalo, those QB's just look different this season. It just seems like a lot of guys in the backend of their playing days are starting to show it. Time to move over for the next generation.
And here I sit as a Cleveland fan who's team is perpetually searching for a QB. I expect that some organizations which are much more adept at evaluating talent will soon be poaching potential Browns from the draft.

The Bills have been decimated with injuries on both sides of the ball. This week is even worse with both starting tackles out. Kincaid their #1 and Palmer their #2 receivers out again. Pro bowl starting DT Oliver and ML Bernard also on the shelf. If they can sneak in as a 6 or 7 seed and get everyone healthy a month from now they could still be dangerous. By then Brandin Cooks should be fully integrated into the offense and finally a deep threat. Still have to win at least 3 maybe 4 games. On their side is they hold the tie breaker with Kansas City and Baltimore

only reason Carolina is hanging is because Stafford threw a pick in the end zone and he threw a pick 6
btw Davante Adams has 14 TDs this season
Did you see that RIDICULOUS catch by Puka?????
I’m usually not impressed by great catches by wide receivers, because they get paid well to do just that….
but that catch was insane! The angle of his arm, to be able to control the ball with his hand and bring it in!
That was crazy good! 😂😂
@perkdog, Sanders and the Browns failed the test today. His stat line is rather underwhelming at 16/25/149/1/0. Sanders made a few nice throws and made some mistakes, but his biggest flaw that I see is that he just doesn't have very good awareness of the pressure around him. He tends to hold the ball too long as though he's afraid to make a decision and run. Maybe that will change with time. I'll say this much, the Browns special teams sure didn't help him today.

Dude has their attention. Unlike any Bears coach in quite awhile. His players would try to stop a moving train for him. 2 out next 3 with the Pack. We’ll see if they’re for real at Lambeau.

I expected the defense to limit Philly and make it competitive. I could NEVER have predicted 281 yards on the ground from their most prolific backfield performance in history. ☺️
@perkdog, if the Lions lost a game like that you’d be having a coronary telling us what an idiot Dan Campbell is!!
I’ll agree that Denver is hot but they didn’t so much beat Washington as the Commanders beat themselves. They tied the game late against the Denver defense and should have kicked that PAT.

We’ll soon see what Denver is made of late in the season. Green Bay, Jax, Chiefs and Chargers. Can they get behind every game and win? If they get through that schedule 3-1 then I’m convinced
W.C.Fields "I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
If nothing else, the last 5 years of the Chiefs and Bills has taught teams how to win. Is it any surprise that the teams that have learned well are from those Divisions?? Both Denver and New England benefited from the schedule, the Draft and injuries to other teams.
Some might call them lucky. My definition of Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.

I didn't see the end of the game otherwise I would have called them out.
that game last night was incredible theater. earlier in the day i said Rams/Panthers might have been the best game i had seen all season, then Den/Wash said hold my beer just a few hours later.
the main takeaway for me was Denver's D. hadn't seen much of them, but had heard a lot about them. vaunted, or so i was told. well, i was not impressed with them last night. felt like Marcus Mariota(!) converted about five 4th downs that kept the Commanders alive in the 4th + OT. very last play of the game Wash wins if he puts some air under the ball. the Broncos were extremely fortunate.
Nix & the offense impressed me when it mattered most. their teammates on the other side of the ball......not so much

I just read the highlights
Your wrong, I got no problem with Washington going for 2 to win the game
The Redskins season is already lost, they are not going anywhere so give the guys something to pump their fist over if they get the 2, that loss only helped them with a draft pick standing
Detroit has everything to play for and Dan Campbell is an idiot for ruining their potential, I'd fire him if they don't make the playoffs
Comments
I'd take the blame for Detroit since I. worked them in every division bet I made
But I refuse to take the blame because Dan Campbell is an idiot
i found a short on youtube
a Bear d-back came around the side of the scrum and stripped Hurts of the ball and recovered it
it was the play of the game because uncle mo was shifting, as Philly was driving to take the lead (they were on Chicago's 11ish yard line)

Buffalo has a tough game in Pittsburgh, I doubt Rodgers is 100% so Buffalo has a good chance if Allen has a good game
Carolina keeping pace with the Rams is a surprise
i'm watching that game
only reason Carolina is hanging is because Stafford threw a pick in the end zone and he threw a pick 6
btw Davante Adams has 14 TDs this season
Bryce Young just tossed a beautiful dime on 4th down
this is an entertaining game
Did you see that RIDICULOUS catch by Puka?????
Puka 😯
best catch i've seen this season
and this may be the best game i've seen all season!
The Chicago Bears are currently the #1 seed in the NFC!
say that again if you would please sir
just want to make sure everyone heard you
THE CHICAGO BEARS ARE THE #1 SEED IN THE NFC!!!
thank you
thank you very much

Sanders always holds the ball too long. Did it his whole college career where hed rather take a sack than throw it away
Not sure how much it really matters at this point but the Washington QB coach is leaving the NFL to go be the head coach at Stanford
Fire AJ Preller
Can't argue any of this
Rodgers roughed up today. One more injury and may be time to hang it up. Injuries at his age are no picnic.
He barely throws for a 100 yards in some games, it's a joke
They had the ball 18 minutes and only scored because of a turnover and short field
"I spent 50% of my money on alcohol, women, and gambling. The other half I wasted.
Job well done by your Bills
did we make the right hire or what
not only has BJ turned the culture upside down, but he also gets so amped up after big wins that he does this 😂

The one from Brock Bowers today wasn't far behind.
Dude has their attention. Unlike any Bears coach in quite awhile. His players would try to stop a moving train for him. 2 out next 3 with the Pack. We’ll see if they’re for real at Lambeau.
And another Best Catch of the Season in Washington. What a day! 🤪

so sick

Denver now 10-2. Should be 11-2 next week if they beat the Raiders.
Denver been winning their games late. But still winning. All that counts.
Bo Nix played well

it is just shocking to me that by this time next week, most likely both the Broncos and Patriots will be 11-2.
what is happening here?
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

Denver,now 9 in a row. Something has to give mathematicaly? Due for a loss? It caught up with the Rams,they finally lost after their string of wins.
