  1. I think CJ will be there, Byrd and Levitre should be there.

     

    Many national press think CJ is the top AFC RB this year. He can set the modern NFL record for yard per carry for someone who has rushed for 1,000+ yards.

     

    Levitre should be there

     

    Byrd has a chance..likely alternate.

  2. Wallace is out...not worth the price tag he wants.

     

    Buffalo has proven it has the inability to throw deep balls which is what Wallace only does.

     

    Welker doesnt solve the problem of speed and deep threat.

     

    I would just go after Fitzgerald....

     

    take a shot in UFAs...I wouldnt draft a WR in 1st or 2nd.

  3. early projected playoff matchups.....

     

    NFC

     

    #6 Minnesota et all at #3 NFC West/GB

    #5 SEA/SF at #4 NFC EAST

     

    #1 Atlanta

    #2 GB/SF/SEA

     

    SEA earns bye by winning, SF losing and GB losing...head to head win gives seattle the bye.

     

    AFC

     

    #6 Cincinati at #3 BALT/NE/HOU/DEN

    #5 Indianpolis at # 4 BALT/NE

     

    #1 HOU/DEN/NE

    #2 HOU/DEN/NE

     

    HOU/DEN/NE scenarios:

     

    W/W/W HOU DEN NE

    W/W/L HOU DEN NE (*)

    W/L./W HOU NE DEN

    W/L/L HOU DEN NE (*)

    L/W/W DEN NE HOU

    L/W/L DEN HOU NE (*)

    L/L/W NE HOU DEN

    L/L/L HOU DEN NE (*)

     

    (*) If BALT wins then they get #3 seed and NE is #4 seed.

  4. So that is confirmed, even if the Bills beat the Jets next week?

     

    yes

     

    If JETS win and MIA lose.....tied at 7-9...tiebreaker to Jets based on divisional record.

     

    Bills cant catch the Jets

     

    If BILLS beat the JETS....

     

    tied at 6-10....divisional record tied at 2-4....common games record the Jets would be 6-8, buffalo 4-10...so Jets in 3rd place. Bills in 4th.

  5. An add on for opponents scheduling.....the only placements to be decided are:

     

    AFC

     

    Jets win, MIA lose..JETS in 2nd.

     

    BUF clinched 4th place.

     

    NFC:

     

    Giants in 2nd or 3rd

     

    DAL in 1st/2nd, or 3rd

     

    WAS in 1sst or 2nd

     

    MIN & CHI in 2nd or 3rd

     

    SEA/SF in 1st or 2nd

     

     

    NO 2nd/3rd

     

    CAR 2nd/3rd/4th

     

    TB 3rd/4th

     

     

    --IF CAR beat NO they end up in 2nd place due to H2H sweep.

     

    2013 opponents:

     

    http://www.johnnyroadtrip.com/schedules/nflopponents.htm

  6. As of now the order is:

     

     

    1. KC 2 122

    2. JAX 2 129

    3. OAK 4 112

    4. PHL 4 122

    5. DET 4 137

    6. BUF 5 117

    7. CLE 5 120

    8. TEN 5 123

    9. AZ 5 135

    10.SD 6 110

    11. JETS 6 121

    12. TB 6 121.5

    13. CAR 6 124

     

    These numbers are taking into account next weeks opponents. The only things that will change order will be the indivivual teams game played and their non common opponents games. The games against their other division foes and the two divisions they played wash out. the other within division will adds 2pts, the division within conference will add 2 pts, interconference division add 2 pts. everyone will increase by:

     

    With BUF and CLE since they finished in the same position last year...BUF noncommons are CLE and KC, CLE noncommon are BUF and INDY....thus CLE can not pass BUF in draft order. THE best CLE can do is gain 1 pt on BUF.

     

     

    6+ (their own game results L=1, W=0) + their noncommon opponent A win (W=1)+ their noncommon opponent B win (win =1)

     

    Thus a difference of more than 3 can not be made up if both teams lost... for example if BUF and TEN both lost TEN cannot pass Buffalo because the difference is 6. Similarly if BUlost and OAK won they cant pass OAK....difference too great.

     

     

    For #4 BUF loses, DET and PHL both win.

     

    For #5 BUF loses and either DET or PHL lose.

     

    IF BUF were to win the lowest possible they can go is #10 ...The Jets cant get ahead of them.

  7. AFC

     

    Houston win for home field #1 seed

     

    Denver win and Houston loss then they get #1 seed

     

    New England...they win and DEN and HOU lose then they are #1, and HOU #2.

     

    Baltimore win plus New England loss makes BALt #3 and NE #4.

     

    Wild cards are locked in at #5 IND and #6 CIN. IND has tiebreaker with common games if they were tied at 10-6.

     

     

    NFC

     

    Atlanta has wrapped up home field

     

    Green Bay wins they get #2

     

    San Fran needs to win and Green Bay lose to get #2.

     

     

    Dallas-Washington game winner gets division title.

     

    If Seattle wins and SF loses then Seattle wins the division.

     

     

    Wild Card

     

     

    Seattle has clinched one wild card....and the #5 seed at least.

     

    Minnesota wins they clinch WC

     

    Chicago wins and MIN loses they clinch WC

     

    Giants win, DAL lose, CHI lose, and MIN lose to clinch WC

     

    If WAS loses to DAL---they clinch at least a WC if CHI and MIN lose (H2H or conf record). DAL is eliminated with a loss.

     

    MIN gets WC if GIANTS, DAL, and CHI lose

  8. For wild card in NFC

     

    Seattle win one they earn a spot

     

    Minnesota win next week they get wild card

     

    Chicago win and Minnesota lose to get wild card

     

    Cowboys -redskins...winner gets division, Washington loss they still have wild card shot.

     

    Giants win and 3 of the 4: Dallas, Chicago, Minnesota lose, Seattle lose 2

     

     

  9. Also how the schedule will be set up next week....

     

    Bears and Vikings should be at the same time. If Seattle beats the 49ers they need to be at the same time.

     

    Cincinati-baltimore and Indy-houston will be at the same time with KC-Denver. Because of seeding with wild card teams and division winners.

  10. Jerry Jones was already quoted as saying Dallas wouldn't be flexed

     

    Nfl decides... Owner doesn't.

     

    The only other games posdble given Chicago and baltimoe winning...making Indy Baltimore game next week meaningless is

     

    Green bay at Minnesota.....minnesota wins they get the WC

     

    Minnesota could back in with earlier game results.

     

    Dallas Washington with giants losing is a game where the winner gets the division title.

     

     

  11. A better question is why the Super Bowl is not held on a Saturday night. There is no conflict with college football at that time of the season, most people are off the next day etc etc. A Saturday Super Bowl has multiple advantages. The reason it's held on Sunday is because its always been that way. The status quo is a difficult thing to overcome.

     

    Because viewership will drop. Saturday is a day people can go out.

     

    Sunday and Monday nights you have more viewers at home..with Sunday being the mosts eyes watching of any night in the week.

  12. This is true....stars are considered great if they play on great teams but they are an afterthought if they play on bad teams.

     

    Is it the talent or the coach? What complicates it even more is that if you have alot of talent but the system isnt designed towatd the talent you have then your team will under perform.

     

    Here a problem with the OPs argument....

     

    If the issue is not having a great QB then why not draft for one? Why not trade for one...wait they did do that...

     

    The biggest factor by far in young QB development is having stability in coach/off coordinator.

     

    What people forgot with Alwx Smith and JP Losman is that in their first 4 years they had a different OC each year.

     

    The many examples of UDA success/failure with a new team has alot to do with how well they match the system or the new team tailors their approcah to the players strengths.

  13. The DC is to blame....

     

    his defense is set designed on having great LBs and DTs who are more blocking stuffers than athletes/ The DTs contain the blockers so the LBs are free to make plays.

     

    This has been apparent in dareus' play this season compared to last. He is doing what he is being told which isnt trying to get to the RB/QB and tackle them.

     

    Cardinal rule in the NFL for success---you have to design your plays around the talent you have and their strength--not have them conform to your system,,,,,when drafting/signing players you want them to conform to your system.

     

    They keep Byrd and go out and draft/sign a LB or two and bring in a new DC they will be fine next year.

  14. I wonder what is happeneing now witht he whole Toronot game thing after reading Woods comments.

     

     

    Any reason Buffalo hasnt played a game in the Carrier Dome , even a preseason game?

     

    If you are talking about marketing the team in the broader area it makes a lot of sense.

     

    On a similar bent---

     

     

    What s the different in capcity between there and Tornoto?

     

    Would there be more crowd noise if they played in Hamilton?

     

    Why not rotate it?

     

    Would it make sense to put a forecasted dud game into a small venue like there that may generate a sell out?? If they were in last place I dont recall which divison would be a home game between KC and JAX...put a December game there.

  15. McKelvin was an upgrade over Aaron Williams. The coaches didn't see that at the start of the year? Kyle Moore should've been playing ahead of other guys at the start of the season. Since Mario had the wrist procedure he's been much improved. Wannstedt has to go. The Jets scored 48 and the Titans scored 35, were those offenses impressive last night? The defense has some talent, not getting any sort of performance has to cost some people jobs.

     

    The reason for the Titans was because of hasselback starting...hes better than locker but has to ride the bench. Other issue was poor decisions by Gailey.

     

    With the Jets they were actually motivated..not because of something buffalo did byt what the NY press did just prior to the oponenr and totally tipped them apart which motivated them. Since then you saw the real Jets.

  16. They need to hire someone who is a 4-3 guy.

     

    This team really isnt all that far from being competitive for a playoff spot. They dont need whole sale personnel changes.

     

    1. keep the key UFAs (mcKelvinincluded)

     

    2. get a UFA LB and draft a LB

     

    3. get + draft a QB.

     

    4. I think they are good at WR when healthy. a UFA at WR would be a plus but look at what happened with Meachanm in SD this season---what a disaster.

     

    5. and has been said many times...change HC and DC.

     

    I really wonder what if they were anle to keep Fewell as DC when they hired Gailey and all gaily had to do was focus on offense.
