Looks like sticking with my "oops I accidentally picked the Steelers without thinking" will probably pay off.

Big Ben going the Kobe Bryant route in throwing a ton of times in his last home game, except he isn't exactly putting up big numbers other than throwing a ton

The average throw is like 2 yards downfield.

I believe this puts me in a tie with Bartz for 10th, leaving a tie between MZero and Swifty for 12th, and a tie between Pronounce and Suprak, and Xuxon for 14th.

And.. I'm not sure who's actually 1 game behind them, if anyone.

Still kicking myself over the Cardinals.

I thought the box score I was looking at on espn.com had to be an error. Ben has thrown 46 times for less than 3 yards per attempt, and the Steelers are still somehow winning by 2 scores. Has anyone in the history of the league thrown that many times for so few yards (let alone in a win)?

looks like the record belongs to Jesse Palmer

Also Chiefs/Broncos and Cowboys/Eagles are the Saturday games.

The Broncos suck, and the Eagles are a clinched team that have caught the plague against a Dallas team desperate to feel good entering the playoffs.

These games are going to be ugly.

Yeah, I don't get why Cowboys/Eagles was chosen as a Saturday game when both of them are basically locked into their spots and might rest a bunch of their starters.

Making the Chiefs play first makes sense because it puts the pressure on both Kansas City and Tennessee to play to win.

Cowboys will start Dak because the way they lost brought back all sorts of bad feelings about their offense, but he may only play a half. The Eagles may field half their practice squad.

Also won't AB be suspended for like, who knows how long anyway?

Even if he's not, I doubt Arians would actually play him after what he said at the press conference yesterday.

But Brady still wants him.

And Brady is the real HC of the Bucs.

he also said AB would not be a member of the Bucs and then he was

then he said AB only had one chance with the team until they needed him because of injuries

Arians has skated on responsibility for his hypocrisy in this whole thing and basically telling the media he refuses to talk about it

Also Steelers/Ravens kinda made a perfect Saturday night game.

Both are playoff longshots but are still very much alive.

I have no idea why they chose such a meaningless game.

49ers/Saints/Rams/Cardinals all playing at the same time is even better though.

I'm fine with what they did there.

AFC can be:

A. Chiefs/Chargers, Bengals/Colts, Bills/Pats if the Bengals actually try to win
B. Chiefs/Chargers, Bills/Colts, Bengals/Pats if they don't
C. Chiefs/Colts, Bengals/Raiders, Bills/Pats
D. Chiefs/Colts, Bills/Raiders, Bengals/Pats

These are the most likely outcomes anyway. Not going to worry about all the permutations of the Bills losing to the Jets, Colts losing to the Jags, or Titans losing to the Texans unless it actually happens.

You have to include if the Pats actually try to win too!

Buffalo has a bye week the division is already over.

Pats will see the Bills up like 25 at halftime.

I imagine they'll put the Pats and Bills on at the same time to force the Pats to try to win since they can still win the division.

Of course, Pats might pull all their players if the Bills game becomes a rout. Technically the Pats can still get the 1 seed but that's a massive longshot...!

well a Pats loss combined with a Raiders win would push New England all the way down to the 7 seed and a first round match with the Chiefs

so they might actually want to win

I had you listed. I even placed you in the tie in earlier post.

Somehow you got deleted from that one and I didn't notice!

Though it makes sense 'cause I thought that was a three way tie for 19th, not 18th.

You all missed the best part of the WFT announcement, in which they said they won't be the RedWolves because they don't want to subject the fans to litigation over the name, all while being the team that's been and will continue to be involved in all of the litigation around the league.

Also code for, "We're cheap and don't want to pay for a name".
