I'm definitely with you. I have a feeling that this game is getting overhyped and that this game will be completely one sided, in our favor. They haven't beaten anyone impressive, accept for an inconsistent Rams team. Sure in the beginning of the season, they kept it close with the Ravens and the Niners, but the beginning of the season is usually filled with a ton of unknowns. Since the beginning of the season, they haven't faced a defense like ours. I expect us to win the turnover battle in this one and we should have success with receiving short field opportunities.

Thawing one now

If you ain't cheating, you aren't trying

Oh believe me, i'm enjoying the ride. Sometimes the "what ifs" get to my head because it is hard not to think about how much better this season could've been. We shouldn't have lost to the Patriots or Browns. We almost had the Ravens. The Eagles game is the only one we deserved to lose. 3 out of those 4 games were all within our reach. So it's hard not to think about what could've/should've been. Either way, I firmly believe we're gonna make some noise in the playoffs, no matter what seed we are.

I think that no matter what solution to come up with, it will all suck. So eff it, I think I got the solution. Every team makes the playoffs. The 4 division winners from each conference will get the bye. From each conference in the first round, the 5 seed plays the 16 seed, 6 plays 15, 7 plays 14, and 8 plays 13. The next round will introduce the top 4 seeds with the 1 seed playing the lowest seed and so on for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th seed. BOOM! problem solved. This also means, no more playoff droughts. LOL

I think that will sting for a little bit. Winning a playoff game will make me feel better. Still wish we had more control over winning the division or possibly the overall #1 seed.

BINGO!!! Drop the mic cuz you're 100% correct on everything

I guess I'm just torn on what I want to see. Additionally, I definitely enjoyed that we got to play during Thanksgiving this year. If we were to switch to only playing teams within the conference, well then you can just say good bye to ever playing on Thanksgiving again cuz it won't happen. Unless they switch the tradition a little and just have one NFC Thanksgiving game and one AFC Thanksgiving game. I hate how there's 3 now.

Ok. You've changed my mind. I just liked the idea of playing a division from the other conference each year. But I guess it would make sense to just stick with your own conference and then one out of conference game. In the end, this just needs to be fixed. Years like this one, it's just an embarrassment. No team in the NFC East deserves to make it

Yeah. Just dumb. That's almost as bad as Rivera actually getting fired. These are two gems that you shouldn't get rid of. They may be no Belicheck, and may have up and down seasons, but both guys are worth holding onto.

Yeah, you can't discredit Tomlin at all for what his team has been through this year. After getting blown out that first week, I thought their season was over before it started.

You know, that could work. It's usually one team that gets screwed over, so why not bring them in and give only one team a bye. So, I'm assuming that 7 games would be played within the division, how would you do the other 9 games? Alternate each year with playing all 8 teams from another division (including the opposite conference) and then one extra game from another division?

We'll never get away from division format. With this logic, you would be playing the same 15 teams every year and then potentially never playing a team from the other conference or you would rotate a team to play from the other conference every year. Thus playing the same team from the other conference every 16 years. This would just be horrible. I think they should just keep the same format/rotation, however, simply the 6 best teams from each conference gets into the playoffs. You can earn brownie point for being the best in your division, but you shouldn't be allowed to participate in the playoffs if 6 other teams has a better record.

Even with this, a better team in the conference will still be watching instead of playing. If they keep the division format, they should definitely seed based on record.

What is it about this state? I live just outside of Philly and they have terrible fans too. Not sure which is worse between Steelers fans or Eagles fans.

I'll be watching from the couch. I hope to see Red and Blue all over that stadium. Make it look like a home game. It's just a great feeling seeing our fans having a better turnout than the home team.

"Wasn't me"

"I like smiling. Smiling's my favorite"

Unfortunately, that probably is what it takes. At the same time, it's difficult to execute a play the way you view it without actually practicing it. It takes a ton of trust among teammates to do their part correctly.

I mean, it would be fitting that we go there and win where our drought started. Titans look hot right now, but we've pretty much owned Tannehill since he's been in the league.

I understand completely where he was going with that statement. To this day, he's still viewed more for the damage he can do on the ground versus the air.

In his first presser of the season after week 1, he said "not bad for a running back." Talking about his first performance. He said it himself. He's a running back, so "F" him.

I'm getting PTSD just thinking about the last time we played the Titans in Nashville during the playoffs

Negative. My thread was merged. The poster below my first one posted a link.

I still don't like being that close to 50%. Obviously that means that we'll need help from other teams. I wanna make it this year without having to rely on other team's failures.
