One problem for the Bills is winning the division is still unlikely, Patriots have to lose to one of the Jets or Dolphins because of the division/conference tiebreakers. Been a while (Packers in 2010 I believe) since we've seen a team make the Super Bowl needing three road wins.

That's usually because of dominant juggernauts having home field though, which isn't the case this year.

I could honestly see the Dolphins winning that NE game, not that I'd pick them but they're playing better lately.

The Faustian bargain JJ made to get a natty really was a monkey paw situation.

^^I would like the Dolphins chances more if it were in Miami, but Tua in the cold is usually a debacle. More interesting scenarios are the Jags and Chargers #1 seed scenarios, which aren't as outlandish as you'd think, especially for the Jags.

Acting like he played well and didn't just hand it off 85% of the time lol. I suppose that was the bargain, do nothing at all and vibe your way to the title.

Maybe we're being too quick to judge Nine, maybe he's gonna be the best Michigan QB in NFL history, who knows?

Yeah not sure how he that was a touchdown. If they ruled that he lost control after hitting the ground, looked to me like he was out of bounds when he did regain control. So he was clearly down short of the goal line...so if he was ruled to lose control and slide into the endzone..I think he was out of bounds and no catch.

They need to simplify that rule to be control and two feet down or 1 knee/cheek...and the ground can not cause a fumble.

For two old guys there sure is a world of difference between how Rodgers and Rivers throw the ball.

If that's considered a TD, then the Lamar pass to Likely needs to be considered a TD also. Brutal inconsistency from the league sometimes.

In his prime Rodgers had arguably the best arm talent ever. He threw the perfect ball. Rivers by contrast had that unconventional sidearm release that was more effective than it was pretty.

Kind of wish we could do reverse flexing. Sucks that maybe the biggest game of the NFL season, Rams-Seahawks, is stuck on a Thursday. Should give them the full week and put it on Sunday, and move something awful like Saints-Jets to TNF.

Why? This is exactly the type of game you want to isolate on Prime Time. Save the Jets vs Saints for Sunday where it can only be seen by hardcore fans of each team.
