Game Thread: Week 16!!!

*claps hands* So! Who's playing Sunday night football tonight?

 

[Iggloo]

The Niners have a bright future. They have a franchise caliber QB, some nice pieces on defense and are going to load up in the draft. I like where they are.

 

[VikingFan2k2]

The vikings are not in the NFC South. Carolina has to win in Atlanta to have any chance at the division.

Yeah nevermind, what the Vikings do doesn't really matter in that game, it's all about what happens to the Saints.

Crazy how fast things change in this league. 2 years ago, Cardinals had a good chance to make it to the superbowl.

Next year, I have to think they'll be predicted to finish last in the West in the preseason

Yep your Vikings are safe. Should be getting a bye

 

[Fountain City Blues]

You act like they've already announced him as the starter.

Ok, based on Andy Reid's history in games in which their playoff seed is locked, they have a strong history of resting starters. This occurred in 2013 as well when Chase Daniel started against the Chargers in a week 17 game.

So, yeah, very confident. Maybe it gets treated as a scrimmage, but that's semantics to me.

Yeah, I wish they had stretched it out and done another one tonight, even if it was a crappy game.

That's why I keep saying that in today's era, an upper echelon, franchise type QB makes more difference in todays game than at any other time before in NFL history.

SF was 1-10 and battling Cleveland for the #1 pick a month ago. Insert QB. 4 straight wins and took out the best defense in football.

lol i'm just a bit bored because i won't be doing family stuff until tomorrow morning

Just don't lose to the Bears, which shouldn't be too tough at home.

It's a QB league. Just look at your team. Before Brees they were a laughingstock. Ever since they have been a contender and they got one ring, with maybe one more left in them before Brees goes to Canton.

Speaking of QBs, I was really, really hoping Dallas would beat Seattle. My worst nightmare is Philly seeing Russell Wilson again in the playoffs.

Same. Nothing to watch.

TV is so dead right now. One of those shit games scheduled for tomorrow should have been on tonight.

Disappointing

 

[mr.hockey4242]

If the Vikings win and the Saints lose, doesn't Carolina still have a chance at the South?

Vikes only have 3 losses

 

[bksballer89]

Vikes only have 3 losses

Basically the only thing that prevents them from a bye is if they lose and the Panthers win the division

 

[bksballer89]

USA decided to show movies all day tonight. Could have used some reruns of Law and Order right now

Oh I know that's what Reid does but considering KC just lost 6 out of 7 games before these last few weeks perhaps resting your starters is 100% a stupid and idiotic move to make. Of course I don't trust anything Andy Reid related when the word playoffs is involved.

 

[bksballer89]

Seahawks had more penalty yards than total yards today.

136 total yards today and they won by 9

Yup which involves a saints loss.

So Vikes are good with either a win or a saints win.

I guess panthers could still have something to play for with a saints loss tho. Forgot about that.

Old age creeps up quickly. I read a story recently about the cardinals drafts not being good in recent years which also hurts
