They are division rivals— these are usually close games in their first meeting. Detroit first meeting with Chicago was very close Cleveland beat both PIT and BAL Vegas should have beaten KC Carolina recently have scared teams Mid 80s were worse

IF PIT W division, BAL can be anything from 5 to 7 seed. In the playoffs — anyone can beat anyone else. Holding teams to FG/ no scores and winning the TO battle usually decide things.

draft order 1st OA is now in Giants hands with 2 Ws JAX, LV , NE, CLE , TEN, all at 3 W . —-TEN/ JAX will be SOS so it comes to non common games JAX( CLE, PHL, LV) TEN ( NE, LAC, WAS). JAX looks to have edge. CAR, CHI, jets at 4 W First tiebreaker is strength of schedule second is coin toss. If 3 are tied they will do something like roll a dice where each of 3 teams have opposite sides ill have to calculate these all With KC, BAL and PIT on Xmas— they will know before they take the field against the jeys if thry locked #2. KC best PI?t and hou beat balt locks buffalo into #2 seed

AFC playoffs…. KC W they earn #1 seed BUF W or PIT& BAL L thry thry clinch at worst #2 Next week BAL at HOU is a non common game. They are 2-0 while PIT is 2-1. If both L next week The only ways for balt to W the div is (1) to have an outright lead or BAL they W one more than PIT (2) BAL LW and PIT does WL then div record gives BAL the div HOU had div if HOU WW for 11-6 and north div winner is 11-6 then they get #3 seed by H2H on balt, better conf record on PIT DEN and LAC W one and they clinch playoff spot MIA, IND, CIN are still alive and need to WW and get help. CIN WW would have W vs DEN but L to LAC IND L to DEN, W vs MIA CIN wants to be tied with DEN alone at 9-8 which means Indy and Mia need to L one. That’s the only way they can get in. l to LAC and L Conf record in any ties. IND wants MIA or CIN tied with them and DEN to get in IND and MIA would have better CR than LAC, CIN, DEN if no H2H. conference record….MIA and IND would be tied for the best conf rec others are worse record , but then H2H L indy beating mia would give it to IND

NFC Playoffs….. Eagles magic number is 1 for clinch division. Eagles last 2 against cowboys and giants. Washington has falcons and cowboys Detroit and Minnesota tied. Still it comes down to last game of season if both win. If Vikings L and lions W week 17 Lions clinch. going into Sunday night TB yet to play dallas is 8-6, atlant us 8-7. Falcon swept season H2H so tie goes to Atlanta West. Seahawks lost, Rams won so rams at 9-6 vs 8-7. Rams host AZ next week. If both L next week it’s up for grabs, if rams W and sea L rams clinch. If rams L and SEA W then it’s up for grabs. If both W then rams would clinch by strength of schedule. three difference in their strength of schedule is non common games —- SEA played NYG L, ATL W, DEN W 2+8+9=19 — best all 3 can do if all WW is 25. Rams played PHL L, TB W, LV W. 12+8+3=23 ( TB plays tonight) so 3 W clinch SS. if tied it goes to Strength of victory for WC… 5. MIN/DET lovked 6 GB 10-5 ( play Monday 5-4 con record 7 WAS (10-6) 7-3 conf record If GB and WAS tied WAS would get the edge. ATL/TB/SEA still in the hunt. ATL plays WAS next week conf record 7-3 TB beat WAS, conf rec 6-3 SEA L to GB, has 4-6 conf record SEA W ATL Rams W TB rams L to GB next week AZ at rams SEA at CHI ATL at WAS CAR at TB GB at MIN GB or WAS W then then they clinch WC

Lions gadget play for TD

Concussion

2 hrs 29 min was the shortest game ever. Can Rams-Jets break that record? https://fanbuzz.com/nfl/shortest-nfl-game/

Wonder what the record is with time of possession vs pts produced. rams kicked the ball off with 6:22 to go in 2nd and got a FG. Then start if 3rd jets go it and had a 9:45 drive to fail on 4th down. Tests 16+ minutes with the ball

Race for 1st overall pick….. it’s Vegas vs giants, both at 3 wins. Sort is strength of schedule then a coin flip. without game cancelations, strength of schedulr is the same as team wins. both teams played nfc south and afc north so those cancel out. Giants played— division foes, min, sea, Indy Raiders played- division foes, Mia, sea, JAX as of Sunday 1 pm opponent wins… Giants —27+27+12+8+6= 54+26=80 Raiders- 32+32+6+8+3=64+ 17=81 lowest W total gets higher pick so week 18 SEA-RAMS matchup could decide who gets 1st overall

With results from today…. buffalo is at 11-3 while PIT/BAL are 10-5. A win sunday does not clinch anything here. If BUF W tomorrow and they both L on Xmas then Bills clinch #2 and KC clinch #1 besting PIT. BUF would be 12-3 and they both are 10-6. If Bills clinch #2 starters should be resting for the final game of the season while against the jets they might play into the 3rd Q Bills tied with Pit at 12-5 , PIT would have the conf record tiebreaker. BAL at 12-5 has H2H tiebreaker. bills need either W 2 games or W one and PIT/BAL both lose 1. in term of north division… right now PIT is ahead, If next week both W, the PIT will have the better common games record because they went 2-1 vs BAL going 3-0 in non common games. both L next week then they would have the same common games record of 2-1 so then conf record would be PIT advantage right now it’s 7-3 vs 6-4…both lose its 7-4 and 6-5 non common PIT ( jets, colts, ATL ) bal (bills, Texans, bucs). PIT L to Indy so they are 2-1 while bal plays HOU next week and went 2-0 to W the div BAL needs to finish ahead of PIT in standings are PIT does a WL and BAL does a LW thus giving BAL a better div record in a tiebreaker. IF PIT W and BAL L on Xmas, PIT clinches div IF both W one game they are certain 2nd place team would be the 5th seed both BAL & PT beat DEN/ LAC so thry have the tiebreaker on seeding if they end up tied. I?f both PIT and BAL L on xmas and DEN and LAC win on Saturday on NFLN thry you will likely see all 4 plays at 425 with all all the WC seedlings up for grabs with all at 10-6

everyone processed stressful events differently which is why I hate it when I hear people talk about these implied generalities that then assumes something that is not true.

nobody wants to see something happen like that in a game. It’s no different than Hamlin, Stungley, thiesman, and other big injuries

Early in the season after the Cards game where it was a deep bruise/ fracture. I’m not local to eat everything 24/7 in buffalo.

it just proves the significance of home field advantage. These should have been done at neutral sites. Expect thrm to be done from neutral sites next year. id throw these 4 playoff games into early bowl games i also do not want conference rematches occurring until you get to the final 4.

They already did…. roughing passer Mahomes for a tap to the head in attempt to block a pass. Penalty extended a drive last play of half Stroud hit heart to helmet after throw was made on that Hail Mary …penalty called would have allowed th Texans to kick a FG.

ESPN has a story on this. with Penix getting the start there was talk if cousins is done with Atlanta by many. in March his contract has a $10 M roster bonus due. They might cut him before that. with the contract and cap hits therr are difference between buy out in March or June and actually trading him elsewhere. if the trade him, the places I see him going to are ( depends entirely on money owed and cap hit) Raiders, Jets and Titans as starters , a few other teams as a vet backup behind a rookie contract QB ( wash, carolina, Indy, return to MIN?)

I lost you when you said you were a Jets fan……

Is it Aaron Rodgers?

If thry madke thr playoffs thry could be a dangerous team because they have Burrow and WRs for them to make the playoffs…. they need WWW and Ravens W one broncos lose to chiefs ( and lose to bengals) and MIA and Indy each lose 1 Colts need to WWW and have either chargers LL or broncos LL and Fins/ Bengals WWW or Ravens LLL Fins need to WWW and either A broncos or chargers LL and colts L one or B 2 of broncos, chargers, ravens finish 9-8 by losing out

A full quarter possession is very difficult to do…. when teams start at their 30 and runs 3 plays for a first doen and the clock is continuously moving with 5 sec play and 50 second in between snaps can take… 1 play/ 45 secondsx (15x60 )sec/ quarter= (15x60)/45 plays = 20 play drive Divevthst by 3 and you need to get 6 1st downs in a drive with starting at the 30, the max you can get without def prnalty is 6 2 st dozens such as..30( initial start point) 41, 48, 37, 26, 15, 4

Wind does funny things shortening the kick making short field FC possible.

With the Chargers winning….. hopefuly I didn’t do any mistakes…. 5 Ravens 9-5 ( W or L sat, they will stay at 5) 6 Chargers 9-6 7 Broncos 9-6 Fins, Bengals, Colts are 6-8 and still mathematically alive eherr… Chargers or Broncos LL. …. broncos beat colts bengals have to beat broncos Colts beat Fins. vhargers beat brngals if not a H2H game it would come to conf record where Fins and Colts would be 7-5 Chargers and bengals 6-6 Broncos 5-7 chzrgerscswept broncos Colts would have the edge in most 9-8 ties except if it’s just broncos and colts st 9-8 where denver W on h2h Fins win on tiebreakers without the colts at 9-8 Bengals would W on only bengals but colts and fins would win if also st %9-8 if both chargers and broncos LL then you can have other teams make it who are 9-8 with colts and dolphins better conf records in over chargers, chargers over bengals. Broncos need chargers in first before they could get in.

That's the point. If you are pinned deep in your own end zone you can get FCs around your 45 to their 40. Usually when teams are pinned inside their 5 on a punt the ball usually does not go as far as a notmal punt. many kickers if they didn’t need to wort about a snap or rush hit 60-65 yd FGs
