Unpopular opinion:

 

I think all teams should have an extra bye week for Christmas. Then return to play on New Years. 
 

Also, I’m having a difficult time seeing how we can matchup well against the Raiders who have Crosby, Adams and Jacobs… 

Coaching matters.  They have an interim coach.  I would take Steichen over whoever their coach is.

 You are right.  That is an unpopular opinion.  No games during Christmas week.  HARD PASS

Explain the Jags collapse.......anyone? The Titans stunk all season. The Colts are Jekyll & Hyde playing yo-yo football and the Texans are mirroring the Colts. woulda-coulda but didn't.

Just my opinion but they needed to sit Lawrence a couple games when injuries started to pile up. Kirk got hurt. Zay jones has been injured. Ridley is not who they thought they were getting. Oline is bad. They can’t run the ball. I won’t be surprised if Lawrence does not play this next game.

 

Colts are just a by product of having a backup QB and some injuries for why they are up and down. Plus they are young like the Texans.

With there being 17 games now I think not having games and giving teams a bye week would be nice. NFL would never do it because there holiday games are ratings getters.

Nearly all players seem to dislike the extra week of games. 
 

From a personal standpoint, most of my family doesn’t watch games during the holidays. Too much going on to sit and watch.

If they can make another dollar, they will.  I don't see fewer games at Christmas.  Instead, they'll probably play one in Finland that comes on at 8:00 AM - watch football while you open your presents.  Reindeer herd on the sideline.

Actually yes. Because if raiders win today suddenly next week raiders could have the same record if they win.

They would be the only team I would worry about at 9-8 tie breaker.

 

They definitely need to lose

Need KC to handle our business the next 7 days.

With how bad chiefs offense looks don’t be surprised if Bengals beat them on Sunday.

Chiefs always look like this to start the game against the Raiders.

 

Think they were down 17-0 earlier in the year to them.

 

 

Edit: it was 14-0

Losing Bieniemy and giving control to Nagy hasn't paid off.

 

Some bad WR play as well, I blame them though for continuing to roster, well Toney. He has probably cost them 2 games himself.

If the Colts make the playoffs other than the Browns Chiefs would be my second pick to play in the first round.

I'm still planning on hosting a wild card team.

 

Guess that keeps the Browns in play, unless they can pull out the North, which is still possible and even plausible.

I'm not looking forward the Raiders next week. 

imo gus will see his failures and start some different looks against the raiders on defense. shane will plan a different attack plan to beat the raiders d. this game is where our coaches will come into play and be a factor in the outcome even if the raiders have better talent.

It’s week 17 I don’t think we are going to see any major changes.

Cheifs missed a FG lol. They need half time.

Raiders playing like the 1983 Raiders today Homer Simpson Laughing GIF by FOX TV.  Hopefully they get it out of their system.

Yeah after seeing colts get punched in the mouth by falcons it won’t be good if they don’t match their intensity.

Just now, Mr. Irrelevant said:

Yeah, that is not how it works though unfortunately. Doesn’t look good for Colts’ chances, do it? :pokerface:

To be fair raiders haven’t done anything on offense. 14 points because of chiefs turnovers. Their defense is playing lights out.

I have noticed a trend all season with Teams. One week they play good, then the next, they play bad. It is just something that is going on. That is why I don't let 1 game sway my views.

    • It's understandable for some fans to be frustrated when the team loses.  Some seem to take it way too serious and or personal.  I been a Colt fan for a very long time and have seen the best and worst of times.  What good does it do getting bent over grown men getting paid millions to play a game?
    • 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.
