Vikings or Lions loser All the AFC games will run from Saturday to Sunday at 1pm and all the NFC games will run from Sunday at 4pm ET to Monday.

I have a hard time believing they would screw over the 14 -3 loser of the Sunday night game and make them play Saturday. Bet it’ll be this unless it’s bengals at Bills then flip flop the chargers vs Texans games with ours Saturday: 4:30 Broncos at Bills 8:00 Chargers at Texans Sunday: 1:00 Steelers at Ravens 4:30 Commanders at Rams 8:20 Packers at Eagles Monday: 8:15 Vikings at Buccaneers

The reason they load up AFC early and NFC late (or vice versa) is that so on divisional week they give the AFC the Saturday games and NFC the Sunday (or vice versa). Try to keep it fair with the timeframes

Let’s make it Lions and Goff and I’m in. But I also do feel like chargers will win their first round game and then beat the chiefs. 3 home games for Buffalo 🥳

AFC will have both Saturday matchups and early sunday NFC will have later Sunday games and Monday that’s why 2-3 AFC playoff teams are playing now today and Sunday night game is 2 of the NFC playoff teams. My guess is: Ravens and Bills games will be Saturday (sexier matchup will be the night game) AFC 4vs5 will be Sunday 1pm

Hoping cooper is ok for the playoffs but don’t need him tomorrow

I wish. If only the Browns gave a crap and started Winston again. Putting the ravens as a stand alone game against 3rd stringers was only for MVP controversy. No playoff implications are really at stake for them. The NFL should’ve put bengals vs Steelers early and dolphins vs jets late to create more intrigue. OR my personal favorite just get the playoffs clinched today with chiefs vs broncos early and lions vs Vikings late. That would’ve made today fun. And nfl know football fans are still watching Sunday even if it’s just for seeding.

I 100% think the chargers will win. And I think they’re the ONLY team outside of us that has a chance to take down the chiefs too now that they’re getting healthier. Here’s hoping chargers pull a first round upset

That’s sad to think McD gets a free pass regardless of outcome. Sure hope Josh is playing in that stadium no matter what happens too

Man I hope you’re wrong. He absolutely should be fired if he blows another playoff game.

He was benched because of a “shoulder injury” so who knows. He wasn’t put on IR

Here’s hoping Winston is back 🤞

No idea why the NFL thought people would care to tune in and watch the ravens destroy the Browns unless they wanted the MVP voters to see the Lamar show. DTR is the worst QB I’ve seen snap a ball this season. If Winston was in there it would at least be mildly entertaining to watch. If DTR is in there it’ll be 40-3 and Baltimore will be resting starters at half

Told everyone before the 2024 draft that this was an epic QB class. Penix with a clean pocket is only going to get better

I think that’ll happen honestly.

Someone said there is a scenario where the Seahawks vs Rams could actually matter. If that’s the case then maybe they’ll make that one of the Saturday games. If they do thahert maybe that means Cincy and Miami play at 1pm Sunday and Denver 4pm Sunday. Here’s hoping

I agree with you because I’m a bills fan and am all for fairness and it’s ludicrous to give a potential 7 seed the advantage but the NFL won’t care. Hope I am wrong

That’s actually a fair point but the NFL won’t care. They want ratings and money. Also if Denver wins on Sunday, like they should against KC backups, it won’t matter.

Honestly not that scary of a schedule and not much long distance travel. Farthest flight is Houston. Like it a lot

I don’t think that’s as big of a story. A team being in or out of the playoffs is more intriguing and has more people watching Saturday then whether or not a team is a 3, 5 or 6 seed

Bengals vs Steelers Dolphins vs Jets those are your Saturday games with the most intrigue because if Denver plays before them no one will care to watch those games if they win

I would be fine with this but McD would never do that. He plays checkers with missing pieces while Reid plays 4d chess come playoff season

1. Chiefs 2. Bills 3. ⁠Ravens 4. ⁠Texans 5. ⁠Chargers 6. ⁠Steelers 7. ⁠Colts That’s going to be the AFC playoffs after the broncos lose next week to the chiefs backups and colts and bengals win out with colts having the tiebreaker Honestly I hope the Steelers win against the bengals week 18 because I think the Jim Harbaugh led chargers as a 6 seed would beat the Ravens round 1 and then beat the chiefs round 2 now that Herbert and Dobbins are finally healthy. The winner of a Texans vs Steelers round 1 has no shot at beating the chiefs

I do agree that McD cost us both the Texans and Rams games but I don’t see any team other than the chiefs beating us in the AFC and that’s only because they have a massive coaching advantage. Josh is going to will us past every other team despite our train-wreck special teams and defense and coaching this time of year
