Recommended Posts

Can it be Sunday already? Who should we root for?

 

Saints - Falcons: Falcons for obvious reasons.

Panthers - Dolphins: Obvious answer is obvious.

Steelers - Browns: Doesn't matter, but I'll go Browns just because fug the Steelers.

Bucs - Lions: Lions to help them establish a lead in the NFC North.

Vikings - Packers: Vikings to keep Packers out of Wild Card race.

Chargers - Chiefs: Doesn't matter, but I'll go Chargers because Rivers went to NC State.

Bears - Rams: Rams to keep Bears out of Wild Card race.

Jets - Ravens: Jets to increase our SOS.

Jaguars - Texans: Doesn't matter.

Titans - Raiders: Doesn't matter.

Colts - Cardinals: Colts to keep the Cardinals out of Wild Card race.

Cowboys - Giants: Giants to increase SOS and because I hate the Cowboys.

Broncos - Patriots: I hate the Patriots but a win for them increases our SOS. 

49ers - Redskins: Redskins to keep 49ers out of Wild Card race.

 

Do you agree?

Not really. You don't want the wildcard pool to get bigger. The teams that are at the top need to stay at the top.

If your want a list based on Home field advantage or division title it's really short:

-Root for the panthers to win out

Any time a team in the WC hunt takes a loss to a team not in the WC hunt it's a good thing. No mistake in that.

I agree with RoaringRiot pull for the Bucs over the Lions this will also help our SOS.

I'd also add the 49ers over the Redskins. We beat the 9ers head to head and keeping them ahead of the Cards is more important. Also goes to help our SOS.

Vikings win will also help our SOS. Looks solid overall though.

 

 

Your logic behind your 49ers pick makes zero sense to me. It doesn't matter if their record is better than the cards as long as our record is ahead of both of theirs. A loss for the 49ers is good and a win doesn't help at all.

    • Actually we like to run more than most, and the dropoff isn't that drastic. We seem to be pretty much middle of the road. The Facons, Bucs, Browns and Bengals are the ones where running drops off markedly when they start trailing. Our line on the chart, like I said, is somewhat middle of the road.  As to whether or not if it's good or bad is anyone's guess by looking at this. I suspect people who like Old school football won't be upset at this at all. The thing is, we would have to know the game scripts and the situations, as running and or passing making sense is contextual. I know that I haven't necessarily been enamored with Canales's situational play calling. At the end of the day, I believe in using the run to set up the pass and the pass to set up the run, and trying to keep the opposition off balance, but I still believe that you should run it down their throats if they can't stop it.
    • Hey alright baseball is awesome.  I cheer for the Braves but I watch all 30 teams.  I pay for MLB TV and both local teams because I'm insane.🙃
    • Because he's from Charlotte, grew up a Panthers fan, and could still make amazing money as an elite LG for his hometown team. And while I think he's a quality starting LT, he's not a Top 5 type of player either.  If he could prove to be a true elite LG, the money might not be that different than what he could make as a LT anyways. I'm not saying he will, but I don't think it's out of the realm of possibilities.
