Assuming we get the bye, who do you want?

Philly

Dallas

Green Bay

Chicago

San Fran

AZ

 

At home, I worry only about Philly, hoping they lose tonight

 

Chicago or Dallas.

GB will have Rodgers back by then and fug that.

 

AZ is playing crazy good.

SF is a lot scarier than last time, but I'd take them 3rd on that list, tied with Philly.

Im not scared of new orleans. id love to destroy that dirty group of scumbags again.

that said you tend to orientate yourself more to some of the other ones when asked.

still work to do though to make this even a question. gotta focus on crushing the Turds this week.

i freakin hate Atlanta.

  1. Dallas (poo tier defense)
  2. Chicago (Can't stop the run at all)
  3. Green Bay (Lots of injuries, poor defense. Still have Lacy/Rodgers)
  4. Philly (Matchup problems here)
  5. Arizona (We saw how this went the first time, maybe take them over Philly now though)
  6. San Francisco (Tough mirror matchup)

    • So dumb I get it, they want to expand the reach of the NFL, but it's not the right sport to be playing games halfway around the world for a variety of reasons.   But one of the main ones is what happens if a player has an injury in that game? A lot of times, you're not supposed to fly right after some injuries, so when they happen here it's not a big deal, the player stays in that town for a few days and then flys home separately.  But that opens a whole bag of worms if the game is played all the way out in Australia. Plus just needing that long of a flight to get out there and back, even if they get a bye week after, it means a ton of travel and needing to adjust to a new time zone directly after another game.
    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
