Colts can make it if they win out (NYG and Jax), Denver and/or LAC lose out. Denver plays Cinc and KC, so quite possible; LAC plays Pats and Raiders, so not likely. Indy needs a 3 (or more) team tie at 9-8, which would most likely come from Denver losing out, Cinc winning out, or Miami winning out. Indy wins the tiebreaker in any scenario with 3 or more teams at 9-8. Bengals can only get in if they win out, Colts and Miami each lose one more, and Denver loses out. KC plays at Denver in the last week, and they will most likely play their backups, but on any given Sunday...

Of course they can. The key is that the Bills will be at home against the Ravens. They have and can beat the Chiefs again. It's the playoffs though, and anything can happen, but the answer is absolutely they can. It could be Indy in round 1, since they are going to run the table. The Broncos will only get in if the Chiefs play backups, and even then the Chiefs might want to ruin their party.

Hmmm…this thread took a turn that really emphasizes its title.

He's a rookie from a small school. The fact that he's actually getting playing time is a good indication of his potential.

Looking forward to seeing him get more playing time in these last 3 games. He looked good in his limited reps against the Lions and should've had a sack on Goff who somehow spun out of it.

He's in the top 10 for QB hits (19) and top 5 for tackles for loss (15).

I think this is Davidson’s third call-up from the PS, so he’s done unless activated to the 53. Basically guarantees Kincaid is back next week for Lions.

Settle is actually having a career year with Houston—5 sacks to date. Too bad we didn’t get this version of him.

I did not get to watch the game. Question: Just watched the “mini movie” and early on Allen gets a couple tough yards for a first. Warner comes in as he’s going down and makes helmet to helmet contact. In fact, Josh’s head snaps back slightly. I don’t believe there was a flag for this. Is that correct? thanks

I’m always leery of people saying this after the fact, but you have bonifides—just looked at the thread from when Beane Re-Signed him 👍👍

Actually, I just remembered that AJE only got a 2-year deal, so there is a need.

I would not discount Javon Solomon as the pass rush specialist to replace Von.

Good call. Groot has become a top tier DE. He is tied for third in the league for QB hits, and second for TFLs.

Just saw the highlights on NBC, and on that last INT I swear it looks like the Chiefs OL is pulling Groot by the facemask. Going to see if I can get that clip. Ok, just saw it on BB.com and it's his jersey.

I hope it’s Zack Davidson.

On that last play near their own end zone, I mistook van Demark for Brown, then saw the #74. Nice block kid!

I'm pretty sure he's referring to his username... 😎

Thanks for letting us know Scott, and a wonderful tribute to John from Riverside, or as I liked to call him after he moved from Hemet, John "from my home town." RIP JfR.

Yes, thanks.

Update after 7 games, the over is favored. AJE 4 Groot 3.5 Von 3 [Missed the last 2 games serving his 4-game suspension.] Total = 10.5 [10 more needed with 10 games to go.] Team total = 22, on pace for > 50.

Britesmith brewing is pretty good and can accommodate a big group. Then there’s always the Glen Park Tavern.

Depends on how you define it I guess. I'd say Steph Gilmore ranks above him, but he wisely chose to move on when he became an UFA.

Since they only have 5 WRs on the roster, I doubt very much they'd go into the game with 4; so, yes, different.

Finally read through the thread because I wanted to see if anyone had this take--completely agree with this!

Nice call.
