Felger and Mazz will devote an entire segment to savvy desperation throws v. Mac Jones desperation throws.
Week 17 - Happy New Year, Ya Filthy Animal
- Thread starter Mystic Merlin
- Start date
True, probably in response to posts how everything wrong with the offense is Mac's fault
Draft gets easier when you have the luxury of dropping the GOAT into an already toolsy offense for a couple years.
Poor Jarrett, but my god that was terrible pocket movement leading to that horrendous throw. 100% on him.
But I have no faith that the NYJ will beat Miami. None. Pats are going to have to win to get in, I'm afraid.
But somehow got zero points this week in fantasy to cost any one playing him like me.
Edit - at least I still have an open bet on him winning DPOY
If I were a Jets fan I think I’d rather have the Jets lose to fuck over the Pats and get a better draft pick.
Jags/Titans seems like the obvious choice - win-and-in scenario, it’s essentially a play-in game similar to Chargers/Raiders last year.
Do any of you know what tiebreaker would Tennessee have over New England if the both finished 8-9? They would both be 6-6 in the conference.
You decide the division winner first in a three way tie scenario, so Tennessee would win the division and the tiebreaker would be JAX v NE. The Pats lose that tiebreaker.
If Ten wins next week to go 8-9, they win the division over Jacksonville so they wouldn't be a factor against NE.
We have tiebreaker over Tennessee, but jaguars have it over us, so assuming pats lose, we need jaguars to beat titans, jets to beat dolphins, and Steelers to lose one of the next two
Just so everyone knows...
To Break A Tie For The Wild-Card Team
If it is necessary to break ties to determine the three Wild-Card clubs from each conference, the following steps will be taken.
(Note: If two clubs remain tied after one-or-more clubs are eliminated during any step, tiebreaker restarts at Step 1 of two-club format. If three clubs remain tied after a fourth club is eliminated during any step, tiebreaker restarts at Step 2 of three-club format.)
To Break A Tie For The Wild-Card Team
If it is necessary to break ties to determine the three Wild-Card clubs from each conference, the following steps will be taken.
- If the tied clubs are from the same division, apply division tiebreaker.
- If the tied clubs are from different divisions, apply the following steps.
- Head-to-head, if applicable.
- Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
- Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games, minimum of four.
- Strength of victory in all games.
- Strength of schedule in all games.
- Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed in all games.
- Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed in all games.
- Best net points in conference games.
- Best net points in all games.
- Best net touchdowns in all games.
- Coin toss.

- Apply division tiebreaker to eliminate all but the highest ranked club in each division prior to proceeding to step 2. The original seeding within a division upon application of the division tiebreaker remains the same for all subsequent applications of the procedure that are necessary to identify the two Wild-Card participants.
- Head-to-head sweep. (Applicable only if one club has defeated each of the others or if one club has lost to each of the others.)

For a team that controls its own destiny, we appear to be quite a long shot to actually make the playoffs.
Gotcha, then Jacksonville would beat New England for the wildcard on conference record because they’d be 7-5. Thanks.
Fucking broncos. If they had beat the chiefs today I’d be way more confident
I guess it’s technically controlling their own destiny, but they will be heavy underdogs in Buffalo, so it feels like they need a lot of dominoes to fall to actually have a shot to get in.
If it was truly their destiny, grasshopper, it would be beyond their control.
Now get off my lawn.
Tennessee is irrelevant. If they win next week to get to 8-9 they win the South. 8-9 Jags have a better conference record than the Pats.
What are the odds Tua or Teddy play? Because if Skylar whatshisname starts, they're losing.
