Titans are already eliminated but Levis wants to prove he is better than what people say, to build on something as a rookie. I think the Titans still go all out. 

Levis is hurt, and this week it might be Ryan Tannehill vs Seattle. I expect the titans to play hard throughout. At least they are home for the final game vs Jags

Worst thing for colts is bills and Miami both finish with 6 losses and Bills win the division.  Not sure if thst puts colts out of playoffs with 6 losses but it does mean they can’t afford another loss. This scenario is very likely with bills and dolphins schedules.

I don't think it's possible for the Colts to go 11-6 and miss the playoffs. At lease, not with any of the scenarios I put into the ESPN playoff machine.

I got the following with (8) teams finishing 11-6(all that's possible) or better.(including Jacksonville, so they won division)

 

 

The Colts were the 6 seed and Bengals were only 11-6 or better team left out.

It's all about conference record tiebreaker. If Miami & Buffalo finish at 11-6 they will have split their two games, both be 4-2 division, but Miami will have better conference record. 

 

Assuming Browns, Bengals, Colts are also 11-6, it looks like Bills are out.

Depends what losses the Dolphins have, if they lose 2 AFC games and beat the Cowboys, they will have the same conference record(7-5).

 

Moving it down to common opponents.

 

 

All I know is in the scenario I ran through.

 

Jags(division winners)

Browns

Colts

Bills(can't remember which one won the East)

Dolphins(same as above)

Bengals

 

Were all 11-6 and Bengals missed the playoffs. Most likely because their conference record will only be 6-6(best they can do)

If Miami & Buffalo both finish at 11-6, then Buffalo wins the division due to a head to head sweep of Miami.

That’s true, so I’m not sure why it showed Miami still winning the division. I may have input a result incorrectly.

imo players always try to do their best, they want good contracts, the better they play the better the pay

Then why was the line favored for Atl?The last time I checked Atl was -2. Vegas changed that line for some unknown reason yesterday, so they must know something is up!?


lol, they don’t know anything other than what information comes in, which is usually an uninformed and gambling addicted public placing bets. Roster moves can swing a line, but the majority of line swinging is simply equalizing bets that have poured in.

Lawrence was limited today so I doubt he plays without a full practice. Not even sure how he would clear without a full practice.

 

 

It doesn’t look like a full practice is a requirement.  Just an independent clearance.  I’m sure they have the doctor ready to go.

Big AFC games this week:

#1 Ravens @ 49ers(NFC #1 seed)

Cowboys(NFC #2 seed) @ #2 Dolphins

#12 Raiders @ #3 Chiefs

#4 Jaguars @ Buccaneers(NFC #4 seed)

#8 Texans @ #5 Browns

#6 Bengals @ #10 Steelers

#7 Colts @ Falcons(NFC #10 seed)

#9 Bills @ #13 Chargers

#16 Patriots @ #11 Broncos 

 

 

Kind of wild that 3 of top 4, with the same conference seedings play each other this week. 1v1, 2v2, 4v4

 

Need all 3 of those NFC teams to win, of course coupled with a Falcons loss.

Seeing who gets the number one seed will be interesting. Ravens and dolphins both have it tough. Chiefs still have a very good chance at that one seed.


Colds just need to beat falcons. Everyone is so close no room for error. Hopefully Steelers can get it together and beat Bengals today. There is no hope for a chargers win.

Chiefs definitely have a real shot at the #1 seed.

 

 

I'm going to hold out just a little hope that Easton can pull off a win again the Bills, and I'll Stick with that for now.

 

Steelers beating the Bengals can happen easily as well. Hopefully we at least go 1-1 today in results that help the Colts.

Bosa is out too.

    • Here’s a fun exercise! Let’s go over a list of players who have signed, or re-signed here after actually hitting free agency (if top free agents don’t want to come here then surely they don’t stay after hitting FA, right?) and where they have ranked in those free agency classes from credible media outlets!    2012 (Per CBS Sports top 100) Reggie Wayne (Re-signed) -22 Cory Redding - 39 Samson Satele - 68 2013 (Per NFL[dot]com top 85) Gosder Cherilus - 46 LaRon Landry - 57 2014 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Hakeem Nicks - 22 Art Jones - 32 D’Qwell Jackson - 49 2015 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Andre Johnson - 20 Frank Gore - 29 Trent Cole - 31 Kendall Langford - 64   2016 (Per NFL[dot]com top 99) Patrick Robinson - 79   2017 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Jonathan Hankins - 11 Jabaal Sheard - 29 Jack Doyle (Re-signed) - 61 John Simon - 64 Darius Butler (Re-signed) - 100 Margus Hunt - 101   2018 (Per anyone and everyone) None   2019 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Justin Houston - 8 Devin Funchess - 45 Pierre Desir (Re-signed) - 46 Clayton Geathers (Re-signed) - 63 2020 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Philip Rivers - 11 Anthony Costanzo (Re-signed) - 12 2021 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) TY Hilton (Re-signed) - 33 Eric Fisher - 42 Xavier Rhodes - 53 Marlon Mack (Re-signed) - 79 Al-Quadin Muhammad (Re-signed) - 99 2022 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Stephon Gilmore - 12 2023 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Samson Ebukam - 58 Gardner Minshew - 95   2024 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Julian Blackmon (Re-signed) - 35 Kenny Moore (Re-signed) - 38 Grover Stewart (Re-signed) - 40   Regardless of how any of these signings actually worked out, it’s time to give the argument that top free agents won’t come here the old yeller treatment and bury it. It’s nonsense. 
    • Because some are here to be right not support the Colts.
    • Huh?   Are you under the impression that a head coach — any head coach — approaches all 17 regular season games like a playoff game?   They don’t.      So I don’t care what Wash is doing with Daniels, they’re not the same player.  Daniels is far more experienced than AR, so how Wash uses JD is going to be different than how Steichen uses AR.     So my point is that Steichen can try to do both….   groom Richardson AND win games.  It doesn’t have to be one or the other.  It can be both.  Sorry we see this differently.  
    • Because we have a GM who won’t really attempt to do business.    Ryan Grigson didn’t have a problem landing free agents.   Andre Johnson was a superstar when he came here. We didn’t know he was washed up until after he got here and he got out on the field.    Does the name “Frank Gore” ring a bell? At all? He’s only a hall of fame player, so maybe you’ve never heard of him.   Corey Redding signed here late in his career, and he helped get Pagano’s 3-4 off the ground.    Mike Adams came here and promptly made a pair of pro-bowls.    Gosder Cherilus was considered one of the best right tackles in the league when he signed here, despite how it turned out.    Ahmad Bradshaw came here before injuries derailed his career for good.    LaRon Landry was a heavily sought after free agent, and chose to come here to make the bank to buy his juice.    Erik Walden came here and far exceeded the deal he was on.    Art Jones had a lot of interest around the league when he signed here before injuries and getting hooked up with LaRon Landry’s juice dealer got in the way.   D’qwell Jackson signed here after being one of the league’s leading tacklers for the Browns and made a pro bowl that same year.    Hakeem Nicks signed here after starting a winning Super Bowl for the Giants and having a 1K+ yards and 10+ TD season. He had multiple 1K yard seasons under his belt on arrival.    What about trades? Vontae Davis came here in a trade. Glaze over it with the benefit of hindsight all you want, but Trent Richardson was 1 year removed from being the 3rd overall pick, and had put up 1K yards rushing as a rookie when he landed in town.     Hell, even Ballard has been able to land some high quality free agents when he’s actually been willing to make a deal. Philip Rivers and Stephon Gilmore didn’t wind up here because the league told them they had to be here.    The facts that these free agents all signed here aren’t untrue simply because you either don’t remember them, or just flat out don’t know them. Luckily someone writes these signings down somewhere for the sake of posterity, so we can look back on those official records and prove that they did in fact happen, despite the claims to the contrary.
