Wow, Bills beat the Broncos 30-23.

Whoever wins the Chargers/Broncos game next week wins the division, the other is out of the playoffs.

Falcons hold on to beat the Vikings 24-17.

Only game on now is the Eagles/Redskins with 20 seconds left in the 4th..............Eagles are in the red zone.......

[Displaced Flames fan]

Wonderful. I'm not convinced there shouldn't have been a penalty on that 4th down throw. The defender was never facing the QB and was faceguarding.

[SteveToms]

Eagles lose. Losers.

[OILFAN #81]

Wow, Eagles lose 10-3.

[Philly06Cup]

Reggie Brown catches the ball inches short of the endzone; end of ball game.

What a horrible route to run, with 12 seconds left.

So as I understand it, if the Cowboys win next week, they're in.
If the Eagles win, they would still need the Raiders to beat the Bucs to get in. Otherwise TB gets that last spot.

That is not true. Dallas does not control their own destiny. They did until they lost to the Ravens. As of this very second, Atlanta and TB have the wild card spots at 10-5 and 9-6 respectively.

Reggie Brown is brutal. This team didn't deserve to make the playoffs. Now they have to pray that somehow Tampa Bay lays an egg against Oakland.

Eagles receivers dropped 8 passes today, but this ultimately came down to coaching. Andy Reid was outcoached again.

Go Raiders and Eagles.

Here is the question of the week flex game.

Miami vs Jets
or
Broncos vs Chargers.

Which game do you think will be moved to Sunday night?

J-e-t-s! Jets! Jets! Jets! Jets!

... and Jags =)

The Cowboys are also 9-6 right now. So why exactly don't they control their own destiny?

Some interesting stats from the Denver loss today.

Total yards Denver 532 Buffalo 275
Denver didn't punt the ball once
Denver was the more efficient 3rd down team
Denver had the ball for 6 more minutes.

No business losing this game, yet they did. Story of their season...finding ways to lose.

[Philly06Cup]

Dallas has the tie-breaker over TB, by virtue of head-to-head victory.

I just hope they show both of those games here for those of us without NFL Sunday ticket

There is no scheduled sunday game next week because its a flex game.
There will be a sunday nighter NBC has the rights to 17 sunday night games.

You as a pats fan have bene spoiled long enough, its time for new blood in the playoffs

GO DOLPHINS!!!!

[Displaced Flames fan]

Logistically, it makes more sense to move the Denver/SD game...but there may be more interest in the other game which would make it more attractive as the night game.

[corporatejay]

it'll probably be jets v. dolphins since everyone in the NFL has a giant hard on for brett favre.

[KTown]

I've just heard week 17, Chargers to play Broncos on Sunday night.
