This offense seemed to be much more effective when Ekeler was the focal point. He has hardly seen the field at all tonight.

wait what??
CC - steelers played mostly zone not man to man, which TB tore up. Drafting devin bush in 2018 was not a response to tb winning for 15 years.

With the current rules, you absolutely don't onside kick here. Kick it deep.

Onside kicks should only ever happen when it's the only possible way to get the ball back. The miniscule chance of recovery is not worth the loss of 20-30 yards.

That's as good a guess as any, although Oakland is currently sitting in the 6th spot with Indy in 7th. Per FO both had just above a 1/3 shot at the playoffs (neither played this week).

Buffalo has a real shot at the 5 slot becauseof scheduling.

I’m not ready to slot Baltimore in. They might be the AFC good bad team.

All of those South teams will beat on each other so Colts might have a problem even though I think they’re good

Raiders are still a ? to me. They might be good.

Injuries can screw up anything.

11-5 might get it done for the Jets so both wildcards might come out of the East

Go f*ck yourself
Have you seen their schedule?

MIA
PHI
WAS
@ CLE
@ MIA
DEN
@ DAL
BAL
@ PIT
@ NE
NYJ

They could easily win 10-11 games.
I have them at 8-8, so naturally they will win at least 9 games but I’m sticking with my stupid gut. If you’re so confident saddle up and help a worthy charity take my money.



FO has them at 70% to make it, btw.
I make shits bigger than 70%. You’re on.

I'd love to see the Lions pull off the win here. Would just make the NFL season more interesting if they're actually a good team and the Packers pick up another loss.

This is where that "lean toward giving a TD so that you can review it later" idea fails. It doesn't look like he scored, but there's no way to overturn that because there's no clear view of the ball. Refs should call the play as best they can with what they see during the play, not change their opinion of what happened on the field because of what a future replay may or may not show.

I thought he scored, just caught up to this part

Booger really is terrible, isn't he? I'm kinda intoxicated and I've got better insight.
