dysfunctional teams are dysfunctional for a reason. You'd expect a well-run franchise to make the obvious changes here, but it's the Giants.

This is the braintrust that gave Jones that horrible contract that nearly everyone with a brain assumed would not end well. Wish I could get a job where I could maintain security after costing the owner $92 million on a QB that even average Joe's sitting on their couch knew was a bad idea or coach the team to an 18-32-1 record and get another kick at the can.

With the Bengals firing Anarumo that would obviously suggest Zac Taylor is safe, which is another catastrophic error. Looking forward to one year from now when the Bengals again need help to get into the playoffs after another terrible start, become the "team no one wants to play" by week 16, and miss the playoffs again.

Can you imagine if they start off 0-2 or 0-3 next season? Taylor's seat will be more than hot, it will be nuclear.

If you read about why the Giants kept those 2 seems like Mara does not like firing coaches and paying guys not to coach. They want consistency lol.

Those red zone opportunities doomed them. With those Goff picks the Vikings should have won yesterday.

The Rams have been fairly unimpressive in their wins, save the Bills game. With it likely to be 60-80% Vikings fans I think it'll be tough for the Rams to win.

Am I reading this right. Vikings only won 4 games against winning teams.

Packers, Bills, Rams have three wins against teams with winning records. Broncos have one real one and the Chiefs tank yesterday. Texans have only one.

So what you're saying is the Chiefs have won the Super Bowl.

I'm saying it's one of those stats that mildly interesting, but it's not like teams only play other teams with winning records, so it's a bit flawed. I think the craziest playoff team stat is the Packers were a blocked FG against the Bears from being 0-6 in the division, but they would still be the #7 seed even if that happened.

The Eagles will make short work of the Packers. They are banged up Watson and Alexander out for the season. Love banged up his hand.

Watson suffers a setback.

A shame.

Eagles have some pretty quality wins against the Steelers, Ravens, Commies, and Rams, especially since they handled 3/4 of those with relative ease.

If Sirianni and Moore can try not to outsmart themselves, and Hurts plays like he has down the stretch, they have a shot.

Hurts is still in protocol.

Easy dub for Bo and company. Coming together at the right time and opened as huge underdogs. Unbelievable disrespect for the best rookie QB in the league as long as Buffalo doesn't watch any tape and doesn't use man coverage at all.
