The "Race" for the #1 overall pick:
1. Jaguars 1-13 Tanking for Trevor
2. Jets 1-13 blew the Trevor sweepstakes by winning
3. Bengals 3-10-1 winning did not lose them their place in order
4. Panthers 4-10
5. Falcons 4-10
6. Texans 4-10 pick traded to Miami
7. Eagles 4-9-1 but if by some miracle they could pull out the NFCE, their spot could plummet into the 20s.
Six teams are tied at 5-9

Games this week between teams that are in or are "in the hunt":
Vikings vs. Saints loss would likely be curtains for Minn. chances
Miami v. LV Raiders need to win to keep hopes alive....and we need them to win
Colts v. Steelers we know the significance of this one
NY Giants vs. Ravens. Maybe we can get some luck here. Giants were tough against the run.
Eagles vs. Cowboys For survival in the shitty NFCE
Titans vs. Packers Sunday Night At the frozen Tundra. Packers can do us a favor.

Note this Factoid:
The Packers and the Chiefs are currently the #1 seeds in each conference. And theoretically could be in line to face off in the Super Bowl.
That is: it could be a rematch of Super Bowl I. Played after the 1966 season.
But, I would prefer a rematch of the NFL Championship game of 1965.
And guess who played in that game.

But what most of you don't remember of know in 1965 the Pack beat the Colts on a last second field goal by don chandler that was no good and the refs inexplicitly called it good....the reason they raised the goal post after that game....or it would of been browns vs colts....just a tidbit of nfl lore

I remember.....that was the Tom Matte wristband at QB game because both Unitas and his backup (I think: Gary Cuozzo) got hurt.
But, FYI, they didn't raise them high enough.....or else the same thing would have been proven in 1986: Karlis missed.

In an entirely unexpected twist of fate, Josh Gordon has once again been popped for banned substances. The jokes write themselves!

In other new around the league, i.e NFC playoff picture :
Green Bay, New Orleans and Seattle clinch their divisions. They now are vying for the 1,2,3 seeding
Tampa Bay clinched a playoff spot which will likely be the #5 spot.
Rams and Bears are currently in playoff position, but Cards are still alive.......no one has clinched. Rams/Bears/Cardinals......3 teams vying for 2 playoff spots
Rams and Cardinals go at it next Sunday.... Bears have their old nemesis the Packers at home.
Eagles finally got eliminated. It took until the next to last week for a now 5-10-1 team to get aufed.
BUT..... Dallas, Washington, and the Giants are each still alive for the NFCE title. Cowboys and WTFs are 6-9, and Giants are 5-10,
WTF currently holds the league based on beating Dallas twice. But that could all change next week.
Dallas and NY Giants go head to head next Sunday while the WTFs play the Eagles.

In the AFC.....only one spot remains to be decided:
Will the #7 spot go to the Colts or the Dolphins?
Today the Bills crushed the Dolphins, and perhaps their playoff hopes with it. Colts are up big now vs. Jags.
Titans up on the Texans and it looks like they will take the AFCS. They win division with a win. If they lose and Colts win, Colts win division. If Colts lose, they are out completely. If both win, Loser of Division takes #7 spot.
In the NFC....three spots still up this afternoon and tonight:
Three teams vying for 2 playoff spots as WCs: Rams/Cards/Bears. Bears losing to Packers now. Cards lead Rams 7-5 near half. (but I hear Murray is out of the game with ankle injury) If Bears lose, they are out if Cards win. If Cards lose and Bears lose.....Bears are in, Cards out.
Also...the NFCE. If Washington beats Eagles tonight, they win that Div. If Eagles win, Giants...at 6-10 and who beat the Cowgirls today would win.

A shame the Rams Cards game has come down to these guys at QB !
-
Jags close to within 6, 20-14 Colts..just starting the 4th... (edit--Colts go up 2 scores 28-14..3:35 left)
Tits are choking away a big lead.. 1:20 left in 3rd.. Tits still up 31-28 (edit-- Texans take 35-31 lead with 10 mins left)
I still can't wipe our victory smile off my face watching these losers

Tits no longer winning the division!
Tits no longer winning the division!
Two minutes to go

Texans driving again, great drama

Ok. So where does that leave us... Titans won.. Miami Lost, Colts won, we won, Ravens Won.. Do we get Pittsburg again in Pittsburg?
