NFL Week 17: All it takes is one big quarter, just ask Doug Williams

[Simon_Cowbell]

I had Minnesota-New England before the season.

Love New England now.

If the Vikings finish big against the Giants, they can still do it. But, I think at least one NFC East team will be in the conference title game.

In the AFC, Baltimore and Denver are my picks to make the AFC omelette.

 

[YGBFKM]

I think the three best teams in the NFL right now all play in the AFC.

I just have an awful feeling that New England is gonna take care of business.

Would be nice if they did so Sunday.

Would be nice if they did so Sunday.

Would be nice if the Steelers, Patriots and either the Raiders or Bengals did so on Sunday, for sure.

That will be a tough one.

Damn, I love the talent on that Houston team.

Don't remind me. I really liked your Dolphins against them with their playoff lives on the line better than the Patriots with the relatively meaningless No. 3 seed on the line.

The best possible scenario is for the Steelers to win, finish 9-7 and not make the playoffs so little pOOP can tell us how they had a better wining percentage than any MLB team that didn't make the playoffs and how that proves how great the "level playing field" Mediocre Fotball League is.

Of course, it's OK for the Colts to go 15-1 but if the Yankees went 151-11 (a lower winning percentage) little whiny ass pOOP would say it's because of their unfair advantage.

You are still the one disavowing the ridiculous advantage the Yankees have....and YOU are making fun of someone else?

Comic gold.

 

[BYH]

How did I never call oop pOOP? ****!

Lemme guess what the extra p stands for.

Oddsmakers in Vegas are expecting a couple of teams to give no effort at all: New England is a 7.5-point underdog vs. Houston, and Cincinnati is a 10-point underdog vs. the Jets. This whole thing is a fraud, no better than a game played during the first week of August.

 

[Flying Headbutt]

Another team you can count on having already quit is the Redskins. Those ****ers have been mailing it in the last couple weeks, and will definitely do so against the Chargers this week.

BTW, Dan Snyder may be the biggest piece of **** in the NFL. He's already, more than once, interviewed Jerry Gray for Jim Zorn's job. Of course, Gray is one of Zorn's assistants right now. But since the Shanahan deal is all but finalized and set to be announced before the playoffs even officially begin, they had to figure out a way to satisfy the Rooney Rule. In doing so, they make a total mockery of it and treat another team employee like ****.

I can't believe there are so many loyal fans of the Deadskins still around here, with the way that piece of **** owner continues to do things. And only Sally Jenkins and Mike Wise (mostly on his radio show) have the guts to call out Snyder for being the cocksucker he is. Heck, Kornheiser just glosses over it on the radio because he's been bought and sold.

 

[Evil ... Thy name is Orville Redenbacher!!]

I just have an awful feeling that New England is gonna take care of business.

You and me both.
I like the Pats and Saints in the title game.

 

[Armchair_QB]

I suspect the Cowboys will implode in a spectacularly entertaining way against the Eagles.

I thought your best-case scenario was for two 8-8 teams to make the playoffs so you could whine even more than usual about the mediocrity of the NFL, because winning percentages in the NFL are only worth using as a comparison when they suit your argument, right? Different thread. Same old spnited. Happy to contradict himself all day long in defense of his beloved baseball.

Why would Gray take that interview?

 

[93Devil]

I read that he is a team employee. Really hard to say no when your boss offers you an interview for a promotion.

 

[Pancamo]

93 everyone knows the interview was a sham.

Gray is a piece of **** for interviewing for a job that is not open and a piece of **** for being the token interview to avoid the Rooney Rule.

@aqb: no way. Not this year, especially after what happens in week 17 last year.
