This is it boys. The final week of the regular season. This feels like the fastest season ever.
A lot is on the line for today’s games. Playoff positioning, first round BYEs and the final 2 playoff spots to be filled.
NFC
1- 49ers: Can clinch #1 seed in NFC and division with a win against Seattle. A loss and they fall to the 5 seed to face the winner of the NFC East.
2- Packers: Can clinch #1 seed with win AND 49ers loss. Can clinch #2 seed with win and 49ers win. A loss drops them to the 3 seed to face the Vikings.
3- Saints: Can clinch #2 seed with win AND Packers OR 49ers loss. Can clinch #1 seed with win AND Packers AND 49ers loss. Remain #3 seed if Packers AND 49ers win.
4- Seahawks: Can clinch #3 seed and division with win against 49ers and wins by GB and NO. Can clinch #2 seed with win AND GB loss. Can clinch #1 seed with win AND GB AND NO loss.
5- Eagles: Can clinch #4 seed and division with win OR Dallas loss.
6- Cowboys: Can clinch #4 seed and division with win AND Eagles loss.
AFC
1- Patriots: Can clinch #2 seed with win OR Chiefs loss.
2- Chiefs: Can clinch #2 seed with win AND Patriots loss. Can clinch #3 seed with win OR Texans loss.
3- Texans: Can clinch #3 seed with win AND Chiefs loss. If not, they remain 4 seed.
4- Titans: Can clinch #6 seed with win OR loss by Steelers.
5- Steelers: Can clinch #6 seed with win AND loss by Titans, Raiders and Colts.
6- Raiders: Can clinch #6 seed with win AND losses by Titans, Steelers, Jaguars AND a win by either Bears, Lions, Chargers or Patriots.
A lot on the line. I still think Dallas and Tennessee get into the playoffs.

There is still hope. I really hope the Raiders can steal this last spot.

With the #5 seed locked down Buffalo is sitting basically everyone except Josh Allen. Beasley, Brown, Roberts, Singletary, Tre White, Knox, Lawson are all inactive today.
Makes sense. Today’s game means nothing. Might as well let Allen get some completions in and regain his confidence. Good chance he won’t play the whole game either. Next week is what matters.

Given Gregg Williams tendency to go after QBs be careful of hanging Josh Allen in too long. Think he gets a series as a thanks to the ticket holders today and it's Matt Barkley time. Henry Anderson for whatever reason hates the Bills and has done some late hit shenanigans including angering the Hauschka family with a late hit on Hauschka last year. Wonder if any Bill tries to do anything to him today. I'm also weary of the always dirty Jordan Phillips. Hit Darnold low week 1 after the ball was thrown which thankfully wasnt anything serious given Darnold was diagnosed with mono two days later.

The Texans can still play for the 3 seed but are benching Watson today. I think they like the idea of facing Buffalo more then Tennessee in the playoffs. I agree.

The Texans want the Titans in tbh. The Titans can beat the Chiefs, have beaten the Chiefs, and if they beat the Chiefs again and the Texans win through, the Texans will go to New England rather than Baltimore which is far more preferable. All of this depends on the Texans beating the Bills, which is a coin flip game. I don't think the Texans fear the Titans. They went there and won when the Titans were red hot.

And Charles fucking Davis.
It seriously might be time to just throw Graham to the bench and let the young guys make plays. He’s so terrible and drops everything.

Jets just ran a wildcat on 3rd and short with Lev Bell after he was gashing the Bills more times than not and then opt to go for a long 50 yard FG in the rain only to see Fikken miss. WTF was that wildcat call?

Refs have been awful in this Jets/Bills game. Missed facemask on Maye, gave Darnold an extra 0 but the worst call is this garbage turnover reversal that Terrell Basham clearly hit Barkley and got the ball off which should have been a fumble. How the refs saw that as an incomplete pass is beyond me. Al Riveron sucks.

Dirty hit by a typical asshole like Kurt Coleman to clobber Leveon Bell high in the helmet. Fuck that son of a bitch, best known for getting destroyed by Trent Fucking Richardson.

The Bills should have just not played today. Say the plane has mechanical difficulties or some shit and call up the NXT guys. That worked for Smackdown.

Total misdiagnosis from Brady on that throw. Don't know what he saw.

Total misdiagnosis from Brady on that throw. Don't know what he saw. He hasn’t been himself the 2nd half of the season which makes the Bills losing to them last week that much worse. Our offence beat itself while our defence held him in check. So frustrating. I would never bet against playoff Tom Brady but it’ll be interesting to see what happens depending on who they end up facing after their bye.

Probably Chiefs as that seems like the most logical 2/3 matchup. Might be some of the worst officiating ever. A phantom first down for Yeldon and now a random offensive pass int. call. This ref crew does not belong in the playoffs.

I'd kinda like to see a student vs mentor round 1 matchup between Vrabel and Belichick. Wanna see Bill's reaction if one of his long time former players beats him in Foxboro and if he will bother to shake his hand or run off the stadium like John Rambo again.

The Packers are a really fucking weird team. Lions have outplayed them for much of this season series, go figure this is the lone team the Lions bother getting up for whatever reasons.

I’m 100% pulling for the Lions because it’s the only way Seattle can take 1st place if they win tonight over SF.
EDIT: forgot the Saints need to lose too. But they can still finish 2nd if Detroit takes it. I’d be happy with that.

Yeah Lions winning really puts the cat amongst the pigeons in the NFC. It is the Lions though, never doubt Matt Patricia's ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

I know it's Frank Gore's decision but why is Gore being the primary back in this meaningless game? Additional stats? Save his legs for next week. I know he's a durable rock but still he's got so many hits left in him.

Knowing Gore he won’t do anything stupid and still be an option next week. *knocks on wood*

I don't recall a more worse interim coaching job than what Perry Fewell has done with the Panthers. He was a disaster with the Giants if I recall and wasn't much better as Buffalo's interim but this is next level awful. I know he has inexperience at the QB level but the team hasn't even bothered competing. Down 35-0 before the half.
