4:30 PM - Colts at Ravens

8:30PM - Vikings at Packers

Two pretty bad matchups considering the Packers and Colts are totally out of playoff contention . 

Raven's have huge incentive to win this game . They pretty much have to win this game to get into the AFC playoff picture. Colts have huge incentive to lose this game , because they have a chance to get as high as the #2 pick in the draft . Also rumors they're going to clean house with the coaching staff, pair #2 picks across the board in the draft with luck coming back and possibly a much better coach coming to town, they could be a pretty interesting team to watch next year. NOT this year though apparently. Expect a blowout.

2nd matchup is at least a little more interesting since its at Green Bay. Vikings are flying high and have more to play for than the Packers since they can still technically get the #1 seed in the NFC if Phily loses out and Vikes win out. I think Green Bay makes this a closer game than the 1st since its at home and they at least have some talent on offense, and Hundley had a few starts under his belt this season. This game, we actually have a lot of incentive to watch . If the Packers pull off a miracle and knock the Vikings down to 11-4 and suddenly we have a decent shot at the #2 seed (we would have to beat TB while the Saints and Rams would both have to lose).

The Viking losing is absolutely the miracle game that probably wont happen. BUT if it happens, I'm feeling pretty good for our chances to steal the 2 seed. Titans vs Rams is in Nashville, and the Titans are playing for a playoff spot, they could be outsted from the playoff race with a loss so they will at least give the Rams a run for their money I'm betting. Falcons obviously have all the motivation in the world, win out they win the division. And we have no business losing to the Bucs.

Also, Titans are far better at home this year than on the road.

I think the titans will loose BUT the rams play jimmy G and the 9ers week 17.

Yeah I'm thinking they'll drop one of those. Much less confident in the Vikings losing one of their last two though. And less confident in the Aints losing one of their next two as well. I doubt there's really any real chance the Falcons wins tomorrow in NO with NO playing with the division on the line and after the first loss.

I understand the first part, but don't try comparing the upcoming two games to the Panthers game. We were 8-4 at the time and it was in Carolina. The Packers are 3-5 without Rodgers and have looked utterly terrible only barely beating the worst team in the league in OT and also slipping by another terrible team in TB. And then the Bears in MN... Extremely unlikely. 

I'm just tempering expectations. I fully expect us to win out and the Aints to drop one with us winning the division. I just think the odds are too long for the 2 seed.

      Give Legette another season?

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.

      Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
