NFL (2025 Season)

[JayhawkCO]

I cannot wait to bet against the Broncos in the playoffs.

Broncos have beaten:

- The 3-6 Jake Browning led Bengals
- The 2-7 Geno Smith led Raiders by 3 points
- The 3-5 Davis Mills led Texans by 3 points
- The 1-7 Justin Fields led Jets 13-11
- The 2-7 Jaxson Dart led Giants by 1 point
- The 1-8 Cam Ward led Titans by 1 score

Yet they also beat the Eagles...

One good win still doesn't make for a great resume.

According to https://nflplayoffscenarios.com/ and nobody's surprise, New Orleans is knocked out of 1 seed contention with a loss today.

Surprisingly competitive game here in Germany, I thought the Colts would walk all over the Falcons.

Former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue dead at 84.

Well, congrats to the Patriots on winning the AFC East.    It's been a fun five years but barring some major playoff upsets, the playoff days of Bills stadium are done with the new stadium set to open next season.

Davis Mills is now 4 wins and 1 loss (counting today's W) career games against the Jacksonville Jaguars.  He's also undefeated at Tennessee (2 wins, zero losses) where our Texans play next weekend.

Davis Mills is one of the better backups in the NFL in my opinion. With this win he now has 4 game-winning drives on his career (including the infamous Lovie Smith game). We needed that win today desperately.

Nitpick, he's 3-1 vs the Jags.

Cardiac Bears strike again

Cardiac Bears strike again

There are too many injuries on the defensive side of the ball for this team to make a playoff run. No way they can hang with the Rams, Eagles, Bucs or Lions. I'm glad they didn't give up a bunch of draft capital at the trade deadline.

Just need to do the best they can the rest of this season, then invest heavily in the OL/DL in the offseason and cut Moore and/or Swift if cap space is needed.

Cardiac Bears strike again

Had been wondering for some time exactly what it would take for the Giants to sack Brian Daboll, and now we have our answer.

ESPN's win probability for the Giants went as high as 96.9% with less than six minutes to play.

ESPN's win probability for the Giants went as high as 96.9% with less than six minutes to play.

Giants have had win probabilities of 92% (I believe at Dallas), 99% (at Denver), and 96% (at Chicago). They lost them all.

[JayhawkCO]

Did the ref give a K-ball to the Broncos for that game ending field goal on Sunday?  Everything was so rushed then that it was impossible to verify.

Refs Giants' coaches in that game were just straight trash.

FIFY.

And it is proven again so he lost his job.

Welp, (knee slap) that was a BAD MNF game... Hey, at least the da Bears are now in second place in the NFC North division!

IMO it wasn't that bad until the last 45 seconds, when both coaches forgot situational management. It was better defense than bad offense, which is rare for a low-scoring game.

Well, congrats to the Patriots on winning the AFC East. 

At least there's a pretty high chance they'll be hosting one of the Bills, Chiefs, or Ravens. So it might not be an automatic ticket to the divisional round.

The heart attack Bears strike again, another game that they would've lost last year.

The culture change is so refreshing, but please stop having to do comebacks lol

This is a team punching way above their weight. They do not have the talent of a playoff team, especially on the OL and DL. Coaching and a soft schedule are why they are 7-3.

Don't get me wrong, this is a huge improvement over last year in coaching, talent and execution. Still a year away from being a real threat though.

Steelers, Eagles, Packers, [Browns], Packers, 49ers, Lions. Good or bad, we are going to learn a LOT about Caleb Williams over the next seven weeks.

[Ted$8roadFan]

The Broncos beat the Chiefs, who fall to 5-5. They'll Ned lots of good luck to make it to the playoffs. I wonder if this means that Mahomes 1.0 era is ending.

In the Reno television market, our Sunday afternoon offerings on television usually include both the Santa Clara 49ers and the Las Vegas Raiders.

The 49ers are fine, but the Raiders, oh good grief.  They made the submediocre Dallas Cowboys look like a playoff contender on MNF last night.  With the Raiders, it's either a noncompetitive game like that, or a retchfest like this upcoming Sunday, when they host the Cleveland Browns.  And the TV listings are showing me, yep, Cleveland at Las Vegas.

I have Youtube TV, which is offering NFL Sunday Ticket for the remaining seven weeks of the season for $48.  Ordinarily Sunday Ticket is quite a bit more NFL than I need, but it gives me options other than CLE-LV, or blowouts such as Raiders at Philadelphia Eagles in Week 15, or more barf bag spectaculars including Raiders at New York Giants in Week 17.  $48 seems like a reasonable price to get some better games.

Get an IPTV subscription and you get most of the local network stations in the US. Much cheaper than Sunday Ticket and still gets you all the games.

I cannot wait to bet against the Broncos in the playoffs.

Broncos have beaten:

- The 3-6 Jake Browning led Bengals
- The 2-7 Geno Smith led Raiders by 3 points
- The 3-5 Davis Mills led Texans by 3 points
- The 1-7 Justin Fields led Jets 13-11
- The 2-7 Jaxson Dart led Giants by 1 point
- The 1-8 Cam Ward led Titans by 1 score

Yet they also beat the Eagles...

... and the beloved Chiefs, who can do no wrong in the eyes of many, and are surely 0-5 in close games due to luck this year despite being 11-0 in close games due to skill and talent last year.

Also the Texans, who have "no offense," have not lost a game by more than one possession. Only the Seahawks game was not decided by a single decisive play or drive in the last few minutes of the game. They could easily be 9-1 if a couple things go their way.

Pretty much all of Denver's games so far were deciden within the last 5 minutes of the game.
