With the Bills another probable WC team and pretty hot right now alongside the Browns only needing 1 win to clinch the 5th seed I think there is a good shot that the Browns wouldn't face Baltimore unless they make the AFCCG.

In 2016 the Cleveland team lost in the finals to an even more miserable team. So yeah, Lions over Browns Super Bowl, book it.

solarjetman posted:The odds start off at 3% per https://www.ftnfantasy.com/articles/FTN/104089/dvoa-playoff-odds . Maybe they go down to 2% with replacement-level QB play. Maybe Stidham is better than replacement level. I checked out some stats on this.
I agree that it’s the right decision for Denver to bench Russ.

It'll be the AFC Championship Game and it will cause me extreme internal strife. My current head cannon is that Flacco comes out to midfield with a microphone during pregame to address the crowd. He thanks us all, and me specifically, for our dedicated fandom and our service in the 2010s internet wars over NFL eliteness. Then Flacco turns toward the tunnel and walks out of the stadium. He keeps walking, stripping off his jersey, pads, and armor as he goes. He walks all night and into the morning until eventually he is outside the front door of a large, tasteful home in suburban Delaware. The door opens to reveal the lovely family Flacco. Joe kisses his wife, hugs is children, and proceeds downstairs to the basement. He walks through the dark to a wall where he picks up a stray electrical cord and inserts it into the outlet. As an orange/blue light washes over him Flacco approaches his beloved Demolition Man pinball machine. His work done, his duty fulfilled, Joseph Vincent Flacco whispers softly " Thank you for waiting. Now, it's our time."

Old Story from before the Superbowl posted:You can tell Matt Birk likes telling this story. The veteran center is talking about how generous Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco is with his offensive linemen, particularly at Christmas. This year's gift? Bose speaker systems.

Does Russ have any sort of leg to stand on as far as filing a grievance against the Broncos? I'm sure teams have done this sort of wink wink nudge nudge stuff before but I've never heard of one so blatantly saying 'yeah, we don't want to pay this guy'

The contract specifically has (really expensive) outs in it for the Broncos. It's not like they aren't paying him and then nothing happens.

yea this makes sense, they're not making the playoffs barring some miraculous poo poo so now its time to worry about the next year. if Wilson isn't able to pass a physical this coming Mar they're stuck with him for another year or two otherwise they can take their medicine next year and be free. Payton's got the absolute most you can get out of him and clearly doesn't want to demolish his future cap space for a dude that's seemingly incapable of playing within structure. Broncos are a year away from being out of this stretch of having zero options for getting talent, might as well get everything else in order so you can start truly competing soon

Considering the Broncos are facing an Easton Stick-led Chargers, I can totally believe Stidham can win.

Payton is probably tired of competing for control of the offense with Russ, he wants someone who will just do exactly what he says every play. He'd probably love a Purdy or Goff.
