Kind of rooting for the Titans to make the playoffs because it would be hilarious to see them knock off Kansas City again.

Probably gonna have to win @Saints & @Seattle if you want the #1 seed.

10-2 Seahawks: @Rams, @Panthers, Cardinals, 49ers
10-2 49ers: @Saints, Falcons, Rams, @Seahawks

Hoping that game gets flexed to SNF so we can see true misery happen to one fanbase. It'll be so loving good.

They don't schedule a SNF game on week 17, they just pick whatever looks the best when we get there.

e: And hopefully something that will have some meaning no matter what else happens that day, like they don't want a Sunday night team to suddenly learn after the late afternoon games they have no reason to play their starters, stuff like that.

Oh and if no games fit that criteria the NFL just won't have a SNF game. There wasn't one in the 2017 season.

Wonder how NBC agreed to that?

They probably figured that they could throw a holiday movie or special on instead and that would bring in as many viewers as a week 17 SNF game with no stakes at all.

What are the Bills like? I have a feeling they are going to give the Ravens trouble since their offense seems to have improved. They have the third best record in the AFC! Not a team to sneeze at. I think this is a true "trap game"

Defense is good, but they've also benefited from a weak schedule (Jets, Dolphins x2, Bengals, Washington in Haskins' first start, Giants in Eli's last start, Titans in Mariota's next-to-last start). They really only have one solid player in the secondary so teams with 2+ receiving threats and a non-trash OL can pick them apart.

Offensively if you can stay disciplined & manage the middle of the field you can smother them. Gore/Singletary is a decent 1-2 RB punch and Brown/Beasley/Knox is a triumvirate of slot threats but they don't really have a burner or a true #1 receiving threat. They've been disguising this weakness via Josh Allen running wild & that pulls underneath coverage up, but defenses that stay home give them nowhere to go.

Quick Reads:

https://www.footballoutsiders.com/quick-reads/2019/week-13-quick-reads

quote:

1. Deshaun Watson: Watson gained 65 DYAR due to opponent adjustments. Watson's totals include 193 DYAR passing, 0 DYAR rushing and 16 DYAR receiving for his one target, a 6-yard touchdown catch. The Patriots have allowed eight passing touchdowns this season, and Watson threw or caught half of them in this game. That reflects how dangerous he was in scoring range -- within the New England 40-yard line, he went 6-of-8 for 89 yards and three touchdowns, with a ninth throw resulting in a DPI for 5 more yards.

33. Sam Darnold: Darnold loses 86 DYAR due to opponent adjustments. Somehow, in 48 passes, he did not throw one in the red zone. In the front zone -- the area between Cincinnati's 20- and 40-yard lines -- he went 2-of-7 for 13 yards with a sack. He struggled to complete the shortest passes in the game -- on passes to receivers at or behind the line of scrimmage, he went 8-of-15 for 39 yards.

If the Titans don't improve their OL play significantly in the next 4 games I don't see them doing much in the playoffs if they make it there.

Brown flashes #1 type ability and is absolutely a burner but Allen’s deep ball tends to be wildly inaccurate

Important Playoff matchups of the week:

Cowboys @ Bears - Did you know the Cowboys' odds of winning the NFC East have gone up from 40 to 60% over the past two losses? Yeah, the NFC East is a pretty amazing race to see who can get dumptrucked by the NFC West loser the hardest in the WC round. Bears are also 2 games back in the WC race, so they're dead with a loss.

Ravens @ Bills - Bills have an outside chance at a bye while the Ravens move a step closer to sewing up the #1 seed. That said, two game lead on a bye and a nigh-insurmountable lead on the WC race means it's just jockeying for position.

Washington @ Packers - They're still alive! They only have to win out and have the Boys and Eagles practically lose out. Packers can still squeeze into a bye as well but need some help, but not help that has the Seahawks losing the division

Titans @ Raiders - Titans are in a knife fight for the 6th wildcard spot, while the Raiders after two awful losses are on death's door at a game back.

Chiefs @ Patriots - Chiefs have the slimmest of chances of a bye, while the Patriots want to hold off the Bills / fight for the #1 seed. Odds are this game doesn't matter much if the Ravens beat the Bills, but it could.

Seahawks @ Rams - Rams are now only a game back of the 6th seed thanks to the Vikings, while the Seahawks have a death grip on a bye. Super important game for both teams.

Quick result of playing with the playoff machine:

(Assuming 49ers, Seahawks and Saints win out outside of head-to-head matches)

Saints win: Home Field, 49ers are wildcard no matter what happens Week 17
49ers win: Home Field if they beat Seattle 17, Wild Card if they lose and Seattle gets the Home Field. Saints have bye either way.
