May the odds be forever in your favor.

Scenario 3 for Balt is not correct. A 3 way tie would give it to the Phins cuz of conf record. What it should be is
Balt win + Mia win + SD loss. We have the tiebreaker over the Phins in head to head. The scenario you have up there should be for the Phins..

Question of the week. Why did they flex the Pats game? So they can figger out how the Bengals did? Just asking.

Thats what I saw on NFL.com..

So romo has had surgery. Don't know if anyone else heard. Whats the over under on the philly game? 77-0?

I don't know if Foles needs to be pulled in the 3rd to get to 8 tds in a game...

i am kidding. cowboys are bad but they arent that bad. 34-20

I think that three way loss will work if we win. If they all lose and we win, we are in.

As for the pats game, they thought the eagles bears game would be more exciting, in all seriousness I heard NBC owed CBS a big game, from taking one of CBS's before. All in all it looks like the deal backfired, because our game wasn't too exciting. I'm glad it wasn't nationally televised, it was one of the most embarrassing games I've ever seen.

Epic's video actually set me straight. Lol. I guess it had to be mentioned that Balt had to win cuz if we all lost it would go to the Phins. Look at Mia scenario #2.

I was actually talking bout this weeks Pats game against the Bills. To me The Ravens /Bengals game has more on the line and it seems to be only an advantage for the Pats who can find out how the Bengals did.

Accurate lmao

I posted the video because its just a great movie and because its one of the funniest scenes in it.

Every season its the same thing Week 1 and 2 all you hear is "77% of teams that start 2-0..." and weeks 16 and 17 you hear "they need this to happen..."

sit back, watch the games, enjoy the time watching the games. too much thinking is involved with the playoff scenarios. all 4 teams Ravens, steelers, dolphins, and chargers are wounded ducks anyway. the teams you see from the WC that win get hot at the end. These 4 have been in 1st gear since their bye week.

anyone catch the pro bowl draft? jerry rice and deion sanders are going to be the dudes to draft the teams.

might as well have the players use madden plays (hb dive, rb stretch, etc) uniforms decided by MUT...

I AM BEING SARCASTIC. this new format is gay

Cowboys beating the Eagles today. I'm calling it

Wow Tony, I would have never guessed. Thank God he's retiring i'm so tired of him lol

Why am I even going to watch today?

cause you're a loyal fan

Quick Black Monday firings- Schiano,Munchak,Frazier,Schwartz,Allen and Phillips(easy one. already talking to OBrian).
Not fired- Coughlin,Garrett(Jones's puppet),Ryan and Shanahan(money talks. BS walks and this BS should walk).

@ S. My apologies man. If the Ravens lose and all others lose we get in. I just don't know how. Maybe another tiebreaker of some sort. I haven't figgered it out.  .

@ Hurp. Your Bengals suck but if the Ravens don't make it I'm pulling for the Striped Puddytats to take the SB crown.

@ Tubbs. You better hope your boys can stop the Rams or it could be WC city and that ain't good for the Hawks.

This team makes me question why I want to live.

After 1 season in Detroit and watching Reggie.

I can tell you, I'm not a fan.

Edit:

At least the season is finally over. I don't have to waste my Sundays watching the Lions blow 4th quarter leads every fucking week anymore!

Hip Hip Hooray!

Go Chiefs! I know you're benching half your team pretty much. I know you can still get these Chargers to choke up  

Woo first round bye! Im going to the playoff game in a couple weeks!

If the 49ers and rams win we get a first round bye cool!

I happy with the jets performance today. Its been an up and down season but we have a lot to build on this year. Geno beat every divison opponent once including a comeback against the pats, we knocked the dolphins out of the playoffs, we keep ryan and have a top 5 defense next year, ed reed might be coming back.

there is a lot to build on with a team that had almost on offensive talent, a rookie QB, and a group of corners who couldnt cover their own shadow

Can we just leave Schwartz and co in Minnesota?

pull a pat haden and usc? i could dig it.

i would love to see you guys get lovie smith. it seems like a good match. you got the 4-3 personnel, a qb, some supporting offensive talent. He steps in, cleans you guys up, gets you playing smart and disciplined.

another good match would be brian kelly (some rumors about him leaving for the NFL, i hope he doesnt') he is a good coach and has an adaptable system for his talent so you can just ozzie newsome draft year in year out with the best player available.

can we stop the wes welker one of the best WRs in the league now that edelman has 100+ catches and 1000+ yards as his replacement?

im tired of welker. "oh he is so good...blah blah blah" like bro. he runs 5 yards, stops, waits.

Brows firing Chud after 1 year, wow
