Anyone see Beckham Jr. lose his marbles and try and take out Josh Norman from Carolina? He is likely to get suspended which is horrible cause we play them next week ?. We all know wildcard teams can win the whole thing and the two best teams right now in my eyes are Pittsburgh and Seattle. Both offenses are putting up big numbers and I wouldn't want to be playing them first up in the playoffs.

Your game against the Giants has been flexed to SNF but if Washington defeat Philadelphia (@ the Eagles) on Saturday night the Giants will be out of the playoffs already (think that's right)

MNF is Cinci @ Denver whilst the the early game on Monday (our time) on 7mate is the Patriots @ Jets followed by the late game of Packers @ Arizona ... not a bad line-up of TV games all up ... week 16 games

At least we'll be able to watch the games next Monday (save for anyone who has to work)

 

Edit: Odell Beckham Jr. suspended for a week but he's sure to appeal ... could be reduced to a heavy fine if his appeal is successful.

Didn't understand what all this talk was about Carolina players bringing bats onto the field.. Just saw the vision of Marcus Ball of the panthers carrying a baseball bat onto the field during the warm up and walking towards Odell Beckham JNR, Josh Norman was also said to have the bat at one point.. Think that's pretty bad look from the panthers. It's been mentioned sides have done it before... Don't see how the NFL doesn't have a rule in place for this and the Panthers should be fined for it

If Seahawks win or Atlanta lose or we win one of our last 2 games we get in I think. On the upside for your blokes is Mcarthy is calling plays again and believe it or not the #2 seed is still up for grabs if you can beat Arizona. Beckham deserves his suspension but on precident he might get off because I saw a steelers player line someone up and nearly take his head off this week.

Yep, if Seattle and Vikes win either one of their remaining 2 Atlanta is out. We also have to beat the panthers lol and saints. Strange system if it did turn out that way as a 3 way tie that the head to head isn't taken into account so the Vikes win over Atlanta earlier in the season doesn't matter... Still im not even going to bother trying to watch us against Carolina this week as I'm away, that's how much chance we have!!

The way we are playing and the way they are... Don't hold your breath.

but, we normally do ok vs div rivals. If we had our full D in id give us a chance, but missing too many to hold them to a low score. I think we will lose 35-13

Happy festivus everyone

i think the Panthers will rest some players this week. 

Raiders got lucky at the end after all this penalties.

Pittsburgh

Carolina

Forgot about the Saturday night game, bummer. Carolina might rest a few but hopefully Cam gets the job done. I'm not tipping Houston with Brandon Weeden starting.

I know it's blasphemy around these parts but happy for the Bears to tank it out the last 2 weeks. Not a lot to be gained from beating Tampa this week.

[JV7 2,339]

Falcons! Just to make it more frustrating that we lost winnable games in the second half of the year. Btw so glad 7 decide to put this rubbish 49ers game on rather then their orginal pats/jets game which has gone into overtime

Haha what were they thinking ? Looks like they made a mistake from the vision I saw... Meanwhile can your boys keep going and keep us alive ?

 

[Gorgoroth 12,351]

Nope, coach has said he told them to kick... FIog

[Gorgoroth 12,351]

sack fisher!!!

 

4-1 in our div with the niners next week.

[Macca 16,173]

Week 17 holds a lot of interest after today's results ... any number of the seedings can change. Pittsburgh are the big losers out of today's games and they will now need the Bills to defeat the Jets as well as win their own game against Cleveland (to make the playoffs) 

I've already had numerous goes at the ESPN Playoff Machine  but it will be interesting to see how Seattle approach next week's game @ Arizona. They've already clinched a playoff berth and will either play @ Washington or at Minnesota or Green Bay.

Meanwhile, the Vikes need to win today to clinch a playoff spot (and therefore eliminate Atlanta) Currently leading 10 - 0.

As for the Packers - the good news is we can't play any worse and at least we're in the playoffs ... with Rodgers at the helm we're always a chance but right now, we'd be doing well to win 1 playoff game. 

[Gorgoroth 12,351]

Packers were terrible. 

Vikes are smacking the Giants, absolutely smacking them.

cards looked better if that is somehow possible.

steelers looked like they were out of ideas when there go to plays did not work.

Jets looked good and I hope they make the playoffs. 

[DeeSpencer 23,378]

Wow. Any given Sunday stuff today. Fantastic. 

Michael Bennett said it best about the rams: "The Rams, they play good football against us. They just don’t play good football against everybody else."

Surely the Pats wanted to take the wind, which is fair enough. It's unlikely either team score a TD on the first series of OT in a 20/20 game, take the wind knowing you'll have an advantage in the subsequent field goal battle. Belichick doing the team thing by not hanging out his player, although you have to wonder why Brady doesn't do the coin toss?

AFC: Think Denver wins tomorrow to get in, win out for the 2 seed. Cincy the 3 seed, Baltimore might trouble them next week either way. Houston lock up the 4 seed. KC the 5. Then I think the Jets can do it and get the 6, although Jets - Bills should be a ripper.

NFC: Carolina and Arizona probably win. Seattle stays in the 6 seed. Washington are the 4 obviously. When it comes down to it will either of the Vikings or Packers want to win next week?? I'd take Washington away over Seattle at home. 

[Gorgoroth 12,351]

GRRM, I said something similar earlier in the season. 

We are 4-1 vs NFC West, 3-7 vs the rest of the NFL. 

We should beat the niners which makes us 5-1 only with a loss to the cards. With those sort of divisional numbers we should be in the play offs. But we aren't. Send we are so focussed on our Div that we can't match others. Which is even if we finish 8-8 we are still going no where and Fisher needs to go.
