Oh look - all we have to do is beat Dallas, New Orleans and probably the Rams on the road.
At least we get a game next week.

Bears draw the Eagles for the playoffs. While I'm not taking anything away from the defending champs, Chicago's road to the Bowl is not the worst match-up draw...
#928
Here's hoping the Chiefs turn around their playoff woes!
PS Kelce's record didn't last very long I didn't get a Kittle jersey this season cause they didn't have the stitched throwbacks, but now that he's a household name that will change!
Then I hope you guys get crushed by the Saints

^ Well sorry for the shower, but I hope we win too. Saints at home would be a tall order. But first thing first....
BTW I might even buy a Kittle jersey - he was my fantasy football hero. I have notorious bad TE karma in FFB, but not this time. And I get to keep him next year if I want. Jimmy G too.

This is why I can't hate the Seahawks fans the way I do Cowboys and Packers fans (in California). Yes SF and Seattle are in the same division but all the Seahawks fans I've met were cool, and most were from Washington at that.
Work with a guy whose son is some kind of manager with the Seahawks, the son travels with the team for every game. Knows Richard Sherman personally and said he's always been an intelligent and respectful guy. Coworker even got to be on the field with the Seahawks bench for week 15.

Why would the iggles be 6 point underdogs to the Bears? They look pretty dangerous to me.

I shoot people
so.... just a thought. When was the last time the Cleveland Browns finished the season with the better record than the Packers?
#938
I'm really rooting for the Browns. I would love to see them become the next Patriots, basically so good of a dynasty that people hate them
But who will be their coach?

Wow Steelers are imploding.
Looks like there's not enough room for both drama queens/egos: Big Ben and AB

The Steelers are a disgrace, Tomlin is a disgrace. I'm glad they didn't make the playoffs because they didn't deserve to go anywhere after playing so horribly all year. Lose to a 2-10 Raiders team, take the spring off. Tomlin is the root of all the player and behavior issues, but he knows he's safe and won't lose his job. The fact that he shows zero emotion when his team is blowing 4th quarter leads to lose games shows me all I need to know about him. He knows his job is safe and doesn't give a shit otherwise.

I got overjoyed at the prospect of Cousins coming to the Niners but in hindsight I'm glad he didn't.
When your team sucks, you cling onto any glimmer of hope that you can

But really though, it's like he's just one step above Marvin Lewis, who definitely overstayed his welcome. Tomlin actually won playoff games.
Simply not good enough though, considering the talent their teams have had. The amount of missteps they've had over the years in games they should've won is astounding

On second thought, maybe I don't want AB on my team.

You don't the guy is a total jackass and only gives a shit about himself, not about his team, his teammates or even care about winning, he only cares about his stats and his carries. He berates coaches and his future HOF QB when he doesn't get his way or get targeted enough in his mind. He's a total entitled little bitch and he's a cancer in that locker room
#952
Wow, that sounds like deja vu except to a slightly lesser degree.
I watched the rise and fall of TO. Somehow, he doesn't quite seem as bad as everything AB has done, which is mind boggling.
Owens was a monster even before the pass-happy league of today. Loved when he celebrated on the Dallas star. Hated how he did the whole locker room cancer bit, and was officially dead to me when he went to the Cowboys. Had a bit of schadenfreude when he got snuffed for the HOF, felt justified when he had his own celebration, but my stance has softened a little since.
AB to the Ravens/Bengals somehow actually, the Browns do have a lot of cap space... honestly can't see many teams willing to deal with all that mess, plus his contract hurts the Steelers even if he gets traded.

Yes I would 100% want AB on the pats. Anyone who doesn't want him on their team is lying

Like Flash, some athletes are supremely talented but their character/personality/off-field issues can be a detriment to a team sport.

Agree he has character issue but you're telling me if tomorrow you woke up with AB on your team you wouldn't be happy about it?

Again not saying he's not talented and clearly if he played 100% and was a team player, then ANY team would love to have him.
But the fact that it's looking like he is very unlikely to wear a Steelers uniform next year is a huge red flag.
Here's another corollary question: If AB is so talented and valuable, why are the Steelers looking like they will likely unload him this off-season? After all, any team would kill to just have him on their team right....
