Overall, a solid week of results against the Patriots.

or at least competitive enough so New England doesn't get a first round bye.

The 3 teams are tied for best record, but NE is 3rd due to current tiebreakers. Denver and Cincinnati play each other Dec. 28, so that will drop one of the two back if the Pats win out.

The tie-breaker for three or more teams is conference record, and the 7-1 Pats and 6-2 Broncos trail the 8-1 Bengals. That drops New England and Denver into a tie for second, and the Broncos get that tiebreaker due to their overtime victory over the Pats last week.

Here is the remaining schedules of the 3 teams involved for the playoff bye's -

CINCINNATI -- vs. Pittsburgh, at San Francisco, at Denver, vs. Baltimore

DENVER -- vs. Oakland, at Pittsburgh, vs. Cincinnati, vs. San Diego

NEW ENGLAND -- at Houston, vs. Tennessee, at N.Y. Jets, at Miami

Much can happen in the 4th quarter of the season.

Ha. I figured.

How are your Orioles doing this off-season? Sox just signed Price which I was happy about. Need pitching.

Well we got Mark Trumbo, and it looks like we will be resigning Darren O'Day. We really need to resign Chris Davis, get a left handed starter, and a left handed corner outfielder. It's a huge laundry list for a cheap owner. I wish he would spend like the Red Sox do.

Thanks for posting, CBFL. Looks like no one is off the hook, yet. 

Cincy could drop one to either Pittsburgh or Denver. Or both.

Denver could drop one to Pittsburgh or Cincinnati. Or both.

New England could drop one to Houston or New York Jets. Both are away. It's possible, but a long shot.

"Much can happen in the 4th quarter of the season." I hope you're right. Would not mind at all if New England ends up the 3rd seed.

    • To the bolded, it can definitely matter who signs someone first if both GMs are interested in the player. The issue is, the public usually doesn't know if a team that doesn't sign a player was interested in him because the GM isn't going to publicly admit he "missed" on a player. However, it happens a lot more than people think.    We see it as Adams didn't want to play here or some other reason, but it could have been Ballard didn't offer enough. That's been a pattern for a long time now that's repeated itself and Ballard has admitted that he places a price on a player and won't go over that. So a big possibility is Ballard is just cheap and players are signing with other teams for more money. 
    • The only one I really want is Simmons and he likely doesn't want to go through a camp as he doesn't have to. It allows the team to have a better feel what they have. If the staff is concerned and he's available then I think it's an option
    • Maybe at a pro level but I’m guessing they battle the same issues. When you lose weight it’s never just all muscle or all fat.  The three years I played I would lose at least 10lbs through the season. Wasn’t able to lift like I did in the offseason bc something always hurt. Nearly half of the weeks were mostly stretching and cardio trying to let the body heal. 
    • Im not expecting anything from the Colts ant least in the short term.  Assuming the Colts are even interested in either Simmons or Diggs I think those guys will wait for camp and an inevitable injury.  That will motivate teams to up their offer.   And that would — in theory — include the Colts.   I’m not expecting anything from the Colts until Aug 1 at the earliest.      I’d like a signing, so I hope I’m wrong and a quality signing happens sooner than later.    
    • You may be right about the Colts. But I sure hope not.
