Why on Earth did I pick the Dolphins?

Oh well. I guess if nothing else, at least New England clinches the division.

I know, it's laughable to think this was supposed to be "The Year" for the other teams in the division, yet look where they are. The Jets could actually make the playoffs, but they are a one and done team if you ask me.



Tbh, assuming the Bengals fall to the 3 seed (a very likely scenario given that they have to play at Denver in Week 16), I'd pick the Jets over either Cincy or whoever the AFC South champ is, assuming New York gets in. Heck, I'd probably pick both wild cards to win if that's the case. Bigger problem for the Jets at this point is actually getting in; the Chiefs have a pretty easy final three games (toughest one is the Raiders at home), while the Steelers have two gimmes after the Broncos this week. Jets lose out on tiebreakers too, from what I hear, so they pretty much have to win out (which means beating the Patriots) and root for Denver or a massive upset.

Or, alternatively, root for total chaos. Which wouldn't be out of place in this season.

Seriously, I've said it before and I'll say it again, I HATE the NFL this season, there is no normalcy! Right when it seemed we had everything figured out, bad teams became good and good teams became bad, and then the best teams became mediocre for at least a little bit there. I don't think the Jets will be beating the Patriots unless they decide to let them because they want to play them and not Pittsburgh. This season be crazy though!

It's not shocking, but considering how many people seemed convinced that the Bills and Dolphins were going to really push the Patriots for the division title, it is noteworthy that they're the second team in the league to clinch their division.

We were fools for having confidence in any other AFC Least Team. Fools, I say!!

 

 

No, seriously, what was I thinking?

Ownerships need to start looking outside the league for new coaching talent.  There are coaches in this league, who shouldn't even be coordinators, let alone Head Coaches.  And then the league needs to take a long hard look at the QB grooming system, because it's not working out very well.

The two of us are the only ones to have never had a first place finish this season. Yes, for you that isn't a big deal because you have no honor, but for me to be as bad as you... that hurts.

Honor is for winners, Rol.

The Panthers had a good run but this is the week it comes to an end.
