Through several iterations I managed to create the bizarre scenario where.

New England is the top seed with a 13-3 recrord (not bizarre, this is pretty much set in stone that they'll be one of the top two seeds.)

Denver, New York Jets, Cincinatti, Pittsburgh, and Kanas City all finish with 11-5 records. Due to tie breakers

Kanas City gets the 2 seed. Pittsburgh wins the AFC North and gets the 3 seed. For fun I have Jacksonville finishing 8-8 to claim the 4 seed. Cincinatti would get the 5 seed, and the Jets grab the 6 seed.

It's about as far fetched as you can get. But there are a lot of unknowns now with Cincinatti having to use McCarron at QB.

Jacksonville hung up a 50 burger on the Colts yesterday, and right now I think they have the best offence in the Division. Their schedule could allow them to win out.

Man I don't get Miami's play calling. To have a guy like Lamar Miller who scores 2 TD's, averages 7.4 yds a carry, and barely get any carries in the 2nd half. Even when the game was close. Instead they used their 2nd and 3rd string backs, and only used Miller for blocking plays.

He'll be gone in the off-season and make the fins look bad for misusing him this year.

So who's proven to be more overrated this year, Dez or DT? I'd go with Dez.

Demaryius is still in the top 10 in receiving yards even with noodle arm and Brock throwing him the ball. He's had his issues with drops no doubt, but he's still over 1,000 yards. Dez I think has always been overrated, I'm guessing on this but I'm sure I heard an analyst say something similar, but the majority of Dez's production comes in the 1st quarter of games. Makes plays but never when you need them.

Yeah I just got in a bit of a debate on twitter about Dez. Lot of Cowboy fans blaming the QB problems for Dez's lack of production, but IMO the truly elite WRs make plays in spite of their QB issues.

Grampa Weeden and Cassels are awful QBs. DT at least has balls thrown to him, he just drops them.

So the Bucs get to 6-6 and a shot at the playoffs, and the last two weeks they've appeared to almost not even care. Pretty pathetic.

Tom Brady missed practice with an illness.

He can recharge his cells with solar energy which takes him about 24 hours.

Why is everyone talking about the last game in STL? How likely is this?

http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/g...4c6c2436d.html

Still, it could be the last chance to see pro football in St. Louis, to toast a time when this town was the center of the football universe. One more night to bask in memories of Kurt and Brenda and that love; Marshall and those legs; Isaac and Torry and those hands; Georgia and those scarves; Dick and those tears.

Interesting debate on cbsradio this morning. If you could take either Patriots/Panthers or the field to win the Super Bowl who would you take.
The talking heads were convinced that it would be Patriots/Panthers but I think I'd have to take the field. Lots of dangerous teams possibly in the playoffs (Steelers, Seawhawks, Packers, Giants).

Very late to ask this question given it's Week 15, but why the heck did Shaw get rid of the Sunday Ticket mobile app this year??

Hopefully either the refs toss Beckham Jr, he gets himself under control or someone on the Carolina D knocks his block off. He's acting like a giant dummy out there

Giants totally melted down that half, should have at least 17 more points on the board. Beckham dropped TD, dropped pick 6...Giants job will be very attractive this offseason because they've been in so many games this year but constantly find ways to lose.

Each idiotic first down dance and over-the-top TD celebration by Cam Newton is more bile inducing than the next.
