It can be fake and still entertaining. Kaijus are fake but Godzilla Minus One was still a fun watch. Maybe being so personally invested in the integrity of these outcomes that you become offended by someone casting doubt on them warrants some introspection? I dunno, you do you.

I really don't venture into the Wrestling thread. Is there one poster in that thread arguing with everyone else that it's 100% real?

Fair, but who's better in the AFC who isn’t ahead of them in the standings?
Bengals, maybe, but as tonight showed, it's very close.
They are exactly what they are.
If the Bengals had the Broncos D, we are talking top team in the AFC

The Bengals and Dolphins with Tua would be the only two, and it's close. The Broncos did have the AFC's 3rd best point differential after week 16.

Coming into today the Bengals two best opponents that they had beaten were the Cowboys and the Panthers. Outside of two wins against the Broncos the Falcons are the only winning team the Chargers had won against. The Commanders only win vs a winning team is last week against the Eagles. Even the Packers only wins against teams in the playoffs were a depleted Rams team and the Texans.

It's kind of how the league is...there will be a couple weak division winners or lower seed will card teams who stacked up wins against the bad teams.

As of who holds playoff spits right now here's how each team fares.

AFC vs playoff W L others W L
Chiefs 7 1 8 0
Ravens 6 3 5 2
Steelers 5 3 5 3
Chargers 3 4 7 2
Bills 2 3 10 0
Texans 1 5 8 2
Broncos 1 5 8 2
NFC W L W L
Lions 5 1 8 1
Eagles 5 2 7 1
Vikings 3 2 10 1
Rams 2 2 8 5
Packers 2 4 9 0
Commanders 1 3 9 2
Falcons 1 5 7 2

It's not the best since it doesn't differentiate the strength of the playoff team. Plus home and road or situations. Buffalo for example beat Detroit and K.C. which Im sure anyone would say trumps the Chargers two wins vs Denver and one vs Atlanta. But that's how these teams have done in this group of 14. So it would seem Chiefs, Ravens, Lions, Eagles as the Conferrnce finalists at this time.

The funniest part of this Giants bed ####ting is Nabers is driving it. He could be helping them get a QB of the future, instead he's making sure to be catching more passes from Drew Lock or Tommy Cutlets.

He's 7-9 for 77 yards and a TD with no sacks. What exactly do you expect from a backup QB?

Drew Lock setting the Giants back another decade, he'll be having to pay triple for his drinks anywhere in New York.

You love to see Arron Rodgers and the Jets get lit up time after time.
