OK so that's a bit of a letdown, but this game has the right look and feel to it so far.
We're on track to an easy win.
I think we see Josh come out early at some point.
Yeah, that's way over-thought, as are most NFL rules these days.
He caught the ball, was in bounds, and crossed the plain. The moment he did that, play over and it's a TD.
I realize that's not how it will be called, but should be.
I don't mind a NE matchup and have been calling for one, but the Raiders is better IMO.
Equally lousy QB and they aren't coached by the best coach of all time.
Also don't have nearly as good a defense.
It would be weird if we end up with Chargers---didn't see that coming and I don't like the matchup only b/c they have a great QB who can win on his own.
Raiders/Patriots are much better opponents IMO.
If the Raiders are going to beat the Chargers, we would actually want to cheer for Patriots to beat Miami, so that we end up playing Raiders in game 1.
If Chargers are going to win, a lot of scenarios have us playing the Chargers.
It all potentially matters; any team in or not in the playoffs could impact the entire playoff scene.
Who knows what matchup could be created that maybe eliminates a good team for us, for example.
