The Frankish Reich

Michaels: "He (Zach) took a shot right at the end of the half too." Me: no he didn't. Guy pulled up. Jags are well coached. Pederson: "whatever you do, make sure you keep Zach Wilson in the game."

Jags have a 69% chance of making the playoffs if they win tonight (538 playoff machine). And I believe they could do some damage in the playoffs too. I will officially place them in that second tier of AFC competitors after the last few weeks. Tier 1: Bills, Chiefs, Bengals. Tier 2: Jags, Ravens (if Lamar returns healthy), Chargers, Dolphins. Really, I don't see anything separating any of those teams from any of the others. (I also don't see much separation between the Tier 1 teams. We don't like to admit it, but it's more luck (injury and otherwise, than anything else at this point)

Its a paradox. Titans dump them, their line gets worse. We get them, our line gets worse.

Right - with the line the way it is, Josh has got to get rid of the ball fast or run around praying for someone to come open. I prefer the former.

Shanahan coaching tree having a good weekend ...

All right. Crap punt gets things started here.

Yep. The O line is a shambles now with guys completely out of position who've never played with each other before. There is zero running game other than Josh keepers. So it'll be Josh throwing, Josh running or we be punting

I was hoping James would grow into Dalvin. Thanks for bursting my bubble

I HATE HATE HATE “ice the kicker.” Is there ANY reason to think it works? Takes all the fun out of it

Can someone explain why Saturday didn’t give his team a chance to win by going for it? What good is a tie to his 4-8-1 team?

So now Saturday is playing for a tie??? Why? Q. Did Dalvin start out skinny like his bro and then fill out? Or was he always bigger/stronger?

So only 50 years

We prefer losing in OT

FG to win it!!! Make ‘em pay for wussy punt.

Punt? You gotta be kidding. A guess a tie wouldn’t hurt them. They deserve to lose now!!

I hope so … Gotta go to a dinner with family at a nice place with no TVs. Gimme a half hour late start please.

I’m laughing because we know it’s true.

Funny. But then painful as I realize I’m the only one old enough here to get the reference.

Umm, the Vikes had a clear fumble return for a TD called back due to a too quick whistle.

Since when do we care about “comeback to tie” - we need Indy to win it here.

And there goes our record. IF they get the 2 and THEN win it in OT

Definitely good choice going for it. But isn’t that supposed to be Moss’s job?

Well Moss is doing more for them than Hines is for us …

Rational me: Bills beat the Dolphins 8 out of ten times in perfect weather. Pray for mild conditions. Football fan me: Nothing like a snow game the weekend before Christmas!

Particularly with Debo out, he’s been a difference maker. Yes, even top RBs aren’t usually worth giving up a lot. But CMC fits perfectly in their running and passing games. He was worth it.
