Let's be real. If you re-seed all the teams based on how they're playing, eye test, etc.. Denver and the Chargers are probably 4&5 in either order. Houston and Pittsburgh would be 6 & 7. So the Bills are not playing the true 7 seed in my opinion.
Detroit has been the best NFC team all season imo. They are showing it tonight. Not sure who goes in to Ford Field and beats them in the playoffs. Philly maybe but i’m not as impressed with the Eagles as others
Nix has been terrific but he is a bit of a gunslinger. Like early allen style. There will be opportunities for INTs and the DBs need to take advantage.
Which i’m fine with. Bills get to stick to their normal Sunday-Sunday schedule. If they win, any extra rest for Baltimore would be eaten up because they’d have to travel on Saturday afternoon while the Bills are home getting treatements or doing a walk through.
It’s a low scoring game, not a shootout. I don’t get why they aren’t taking the free 3 points, they’d be leading by now. Analytics have no feel for the game flow.
Minnesota D made their own break there. They were due. they also got hosed in the Rams game when Darnold was clearly face masked and they didn’t call it. and awarded the Rams a safety.
I feel like the 2 seeds deserve to be thrown a bone and they did for Buffalo and Philly with Sunday games. They get to keep to their usual schedules and not playing on Sat or Mon.
They scare me less. that’s a good way of putting it. They are coming in hot with nothing to lose. Total house money game for Denver. That’s why being 2 seed brings some pressure. The 7 seed is expected to lose on WC weekend.
That was a great play. and even i can see some plays and successful schemes that Denver is putting on film. Hopefully McDermott and Babich watch this game.. (i'm sure they will lol).
