Honestly the only game worth watching this weekend is the Chargers vs. Raiders. Fantasy football is over. I honestly don't care about the seedings.

I'll be rooting for San Fran to get in. I don't want to see the Saints in the playoffs

I'm looking at the Bills more and more as a team to run the table

Yeah? That's interesting. I feel like their secondary is pretty shaky

I mean hey, anything can happen. But they just seem to me that they are starting to click and get that certain somethin. I wrote in the crazy prediction thread at the beginning of the season, that AZ was goin to the Superbowl. But its clear that the coach hasn't learned his lesson. You can't burn out the high running motor. You have to back off and rest the engine for later in the year. Well, coach still burned out Murray's engine.
Likewise, I'm starting to see something in the Bills. I'm gonna decipher it and say they are starting to Peak.

No matter what happens, we're guaranteed a top 2 pick

Meaning one of Thibodeaux or Hutchinson

Actually, ideal scenario is one of the QBs kills it in workouts and some team gets desperate, gives us a ton of capital to move up

I would say, positional value, EDGE is our biggest need, but we have so many holes, trading down is probably better. Especially cause neither is really that top tier type, like there's no Myles Garrett, but they are both really good, so I wouldn't just trade down to trade down, I'd need some real value.

i can't believe they are wasting gus johnson on this game. isn't there another game with playoff implications (or two good teams) that he could do?
