Survivor: 11-2 LVR, TB, IND, DEN, DAL, NE, KC, PHI, HOU, GB, MIA, NO, MIN
Brady/Bellichick Breakup Scorekeeper: While Tom’s Buccaneers took a rest week (in which their division rival clinched a playoff spot), Bill’s Pats absolutely CLOBBERED the Chargers. It seems unfair to give one of these guys a point while the other sleeps but Bill earned one for sure. (Bill: 5 Tom: 4)
Title Belt: NO defended from ATL (5 week reign)
Needles: 2-2-1 (11-19-12) [Threaded-fave covered-dog won]
Don Shula Award Finalist: PIT (11-1)
Matt Millen/Sashi Brown Award Finalist: NYJ (0-12)
Playoffs:
Saints, Chiefs
No playoffs:
Jets, Jaguars, Bengals, Chargers
- Browns over Titans with flair
I predicted the Browns keep it close until the Titans pull away in a ground-out bloodbath, so naturally Baker lit up the Titans and the Browns pulled away early and never let it really be a game. - Raiders over Jets but, like…
It took a Hail Mary to Henry Ruggs that the Jets didn’t bother to cover for Vegas to win. Big yikes. - Vikings over Jaguars in OT
It took Minnesota more than 4 frames to take out the Glennons. And their reward? Slotting into the 7 seed. - Dolphins over Bengals
Cincy is a lot scrappier post-Burrow than they were pre-Burrow. I’d say that’s a good sign for next year. - Colts over all the Texans except Deshaun Watson
Watson remains the primary active case against counting wins as a QB stat. - Lions over Bears
I underestimated an interim bump AGAIN. - Saints over Falcons
Doesn’t it just make sense if after the year we’ve had Sean Payton is the one to go all the way? That would make sense. - Giants, and I kid you not, over Seahawks
Colt McCoy. COLT McCOY!!!!! You gotta be FUCKIN kidding me. - Rams over Cardinals
Remember the last time the final NFC playoff spot came down to the Cardinals and the Vikings? It was that last second Hail Mary that kicked the Vikings out. - Patriots WAY OVER Chargers
Offense? Where we’re going, we don’t need… Offense. - Packers over Eagles
This was absolutely supposed to be a cover, especially after Jalen Hurts took over, but then it wasn’t. - Chiefs over Broncos but less embarrassing this time
Shelby Harris is good. We corrected about 70% of the errors we needed to fix to beat the Chiefs. - Alex Smith’s bloody leg stump over the non-undefeated Steelers!
HA! FUCK YOU BEN. - Bills over Niners
Remember how the Shanahan era started with like 20 straight losses where the coaching looked pretty good but the players just weren’t there? - Ravens over Cowboys
What fucking day is it anymore?
