NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Who makes the playoff? I’m going to be naive as hell and say they do the right thing and it’s

1. Michigan
2. Washington
3. Texaa
4. FSU

I will likely be wrong.

Yep it should be simple. The 13-0 power 5 teams and the big 12 champ who beat the sec champ h2h but i know those motherfuckers stayed up all night trying a way to get the SEC in. We will see if they found a way

Detroit's defense is still not very good.

Their run defense is decent

 

[bksballer89]

Their run defense is decent

The last time carr played a bad pass defense (jags) he played like a coward and just threw to kamara on check downs all game

 

[DJ Fieri]

Their run defense is decent

But, Carr should do well vs the pass defense was my whole point. Teams don't need to run vs them when they can pass on them.

If you can’t run at least a little in the NFL you are screwed. I’m likely towards rolling the dice with Carr as long as Olave is playing but we will see.

Yep. And the real reason will never be mentioned by any talking head today defending putting Alabama in…money. They’re not going to have a playoff without SEC fan money. Alabama is a media darling that gets gifted shit in the playoff era. Alabama will get in and we will get inundated with talking that Georgia got screwed and there should be two SEC teams in there.

In this case?

If Alabama gets in it will be a gift.

Maybe 1 other occasion they weren’t deserving of a spot.

They earn it just about every year.

But yeah. FSU should be ahead of them.

@bksballer89 is Carr going to do anything today? I have Lamar on bye and have to pick between Carr, Baker or Minshew, ugh. I could have had Gino Thursday but nobody going to start him against the cowboys.

Minshew has legit pass game weapons playing against a team that can’t defend the pass.

As good as the Saints matchup looks, they will try to run it into the end zone when they get close with Hill or Kamara.

Oh, and Baker is a bad bet also.

Because Carolina is so bad against the run and they can’t score themselves.

Teams don’t need to throw the ball at all to beat them. Probably relying on a couple big plays early to hit a good number.

Could happen for sure, but I think Minshew is the safest of those 3.

This why i will always love pro sports more than college sports and it doesnt come close. The fact that we dont have a straight forward system on who makes the playoffs will always be trash to me. Doesn't bother me much in college basketball since it is usually a debate of who is 30th something best team that didnt win their conference tourney while in football we are relying on a couple people opinion on who is a top 4 team

Yes, but at the same time it’s also what builds so much interest

Still cranking numbers, while giving a side eye to what the college mafia is about to do.

I mean if they had a straight forward system i think the interest remains the same. The winner of the bama/georgia would have been an automatic bid while the other would miss out. Great tv if you ask me

 

[bksballer89]

Herby completely changed his mouth from Tuesday lol unbelievable

 

[bksballer89]

2 minutes into this selection show and im already hearing bullshit

 

[bksballer89]

Whats the point of the rankings if you are just going to be biased and choose your 4 best teams ignoring the body of work

I'm struggling to understand how Bama needed a prayer to beat a .500 team and someone has the nerve to make them number 1.
