Raiders are def. in trouble.

The Dolphins losing helps them- but they have to win their next 3 games to even have a shot.

they do own the tie breaker above the browns- so the browns will hopefully get to 11 wins.

what do you guys think about Florida?

if they beat Alabama do they get in with 2 losses and push out Ohio State?

i am sure that will be a topic of conversation this week.

They shouldn't. Florida losing last night should have eliminated them imo. Now if they won last night then beat Bama on Saturday then that should have pushed Ohio State out.

Agree with bk they shouldn’t. A&M beat Florida head to head so if anything they have a better case

What? none for us? Fifth year AFC west champs in a row. Fuck you, man lol...

Thanks!

Not over yet though.

Giants have the tie breaker and Alex Smith might be hurt.

Eh.

At this point it is like congratulating a Patriots fan for winning the AFC East.

It is expected for the Chiefs.

Give me my moment!

Then You can have your second Super Bowl in a couple months.

I don’t think the Browns are going to beat KC in the playoffs.

However, their roster is kind of built to do it. They have all the needed ingredients.

You have to be able to run the ball to beat KC. Not sure anyone does that better than Cleveland.

Defensively, Cleveland has a couple pass rushers too. If they can play coverage in the back, pressure Mahomes with the front 4 and run the ball to keep it away from the Chiefs O, that is the formula.

And I am not sure anyone in the AFC is better equipped to do that than Cleveland is.

I think they'd need to get healthy in the secondary and have Ward and Harrison back. Truth be told, while I agree they would not win, especially if at KC, I could see a team like NO giving them bigger problems (if Brees/Thomas healthy) as they play very good defense.

 

[dtgold88]

Wow, 3 picks. Worst Mahomes game in that regard ever...

He stinks

 

[dtgold88]

Thanks!

Hope my team can help you out next week.

@Shanemansj13 @dtgold88

anything's possible but I think UF might be out without an OSU loss. Good article on this by Lesmerises in cleveland.com if you can find it.

Florida lost their rights to the CFP once they lost to a pedestrian LSU team.

I think if UF wins, I'd have - Bama, Clemson/ND (let ND in if Clemson wins), A&M and possibly Iowa State if Notre Dame were to beat Clemson.

Ohio State is definitely better than the latter, I'm just not a fan of letting a team into the playoffs that would've played nearly half as many games as everyone else (to no fault of their own).

That can certainly be justified, but beating Illinois and Maryland helps their case?

Notre Dame just gets repeatedly humiliated whenever they play in the BCS or now the CFP.

They do, but not sure that should be used to keep them out.

 

[bksballer89]

Exactly and a few years ago, didn't Clemson beat Bama by roughly the same margin?

 

[Heatles84]

Notre Dame just gets repeatedly humiliated whenever they play in the BCS or now the CFP.

But you can't go off what happens historically with a team. What have they done this season and what's your argument for keeping them out of the playoffs that is for this season?

 

[trojanfan12]

They do, but not sure that should be used to keep them out.

Especially in college football where the rosters completely turn over every 3-4 years.
