Starting a petition to ban the NFC east from the playoffs 

They are a combined 16 games under .500 and I think the worst ever was 21 under

Cowboys going to go 9-7 and host the 11-5 Vikings

The end of Vinatieri?

Justin your football team, woof.

Chargers got hosed IMO

8 seconds left and Denver goes deep in desperation and to me Denver receiver runs right into Chargers defender to go after ball that was uncatchable and ref throws flag and Broncos kick FG as time expires.

Glad that game doesn’t matter in playoffs

I agree.  The defender was on a straight course to the ball and the receiver suddenly veered sharply from his path to the ball and sharply into the defender with the obvious purpose of trying to draw a PI for a FG try.  Where was New York to review the play?  The other two 4pm games were blow-outs and they couldn't have been distracted by them.  Utterly ridiculous to not correct that call and pick up the flag!

Texans killing themselves by getting bad penalties after they have made good plays -- piling on after the man was down and unsportsmanlike after an interception they take inside the 10 yd line.

Brady needs Gronk or AB and he knows it. He’s thoroughly pissed

Pats look rough. 

Patriots resemble mediocrity and Belichick is dressed like he’s supposed to

Bizarro world

So if Seattle wins tonight the playoffs would be

6-6 Dallas hosting 10-2 San Fran

That seems fair.

Good for the Texans winning. Else that video of the linebackers walking into the stadium in SWAT gear would bring the lulz for a while. Eh if still kinda does.

Yeah, I get the whole winning the division should mean something but I think they need to go best record is hosting.  I would still keep winning a division gets you into the playoffs no matter, but hosting.....nah.

Wow that was crazy

Seattle 10-2 but only +36 total in points scored....compared to 49ers +166

Packers only +32

4-8 Chargers have scored more than they’ve allowed lol at +3

T.J. Watt AFC’s Defensive Player of the Month

Cowboys are trash

Dak top 4 QB! Cowboys defense top 10!

They burn me every week in picks contest. @Rams next and so I guess it’s their turn, for no reason to play good and win

I'm honestly surprised Garrett hasn't been fired yet.

The only thing the Cowboys did right was not overreact to the first 4 games and pay Dak. Lots of idiots wanted them to, but he is middle of the road. Great leader, average QB. Worth paying, but not insane amount.

If Jerry wasn't a senile drunk, he would be fired about 100 times by now. Now whether that is simply because he's a senile drunk or if it's because being a senile drunk allowed Garrett to get some really incriminating evidence to use as leverage, I'm not sure. But the "senile drunk" part is definitely a factor.

That whole division needs relegated to the XFL. Four teams and none of them would do better than third in any other division. The fact that one team from it will get to host a first-round playoff game really makes the "division champ > wild card" argument look ludicrous.

Agreed. Winner of that division is going to be 8-8 (at best, possibly 7-9) and hosting a (probably) 12-4 team. Dumb.

If WC team is 2+ games ahead of the div champ they are facing....WC gets home game. Tie breaking procedures if needed

This sounds reasonable.
