What I am most surprised of is the lack of Rams pick. Rams always a good home team against mediocre teams, and Lions only had 1 away game in the last 8 games. That game however was in Green Bay so they did not have to go far.

The Rams have sucked hard for several games in a row while the Lions had got something going. Not much reason to believe in the Rams' strength in home games when they've played so bad, no matter where and against whom.

 

The Rams were losing to 3 division leaders in recent games though. While the Lions won against 2 mediocre teams and barely beat the Packers.


Both equally mediocre.

And what the fuck happened to the Broncos vs the Raiders?

The Raiders set a NFL record by recordig -12 (yes, negative) yards in the first half. In the second half, Khalil Mack recorded five sacks, making him the current sack leader in the league, and their offense did just enough to not look embarrasing.

tl;dr, No one knows.

 

 





Pats can't seem to buy a ref today!



I'm really beginning to think that the Patriots should just give up on fielding punts and just fair catch everything until Julian Edelman returns.

I definitely am, especially if Gronk's out. At the moment, I'm banking on Houston's offense being so ineffective that, unless the Patriots collectively decide to throw the game like they did last week, it won't matter.

In the meantime...RIP Bengals' season. Losing Andy Dalton is a killer.



I didn't know Dalton got hurt until just now.  That explains why they lost.



To be fair to Pittsburgh, the Steelers were up 14-0 and had just picked Dalton off before he got hurt. Pittsburgh was in good position to win that game before Dalton's injury. Losing him basically killed any chance of a Bengals' comeback, though.

I'm thinking the Panthers will go undefeated in the regular season now. The Falcons are beyond terrible considering they started the season 5-0 and where 6-1 once.



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.
