the fact the vikings would only have 6 wins is wild lol
the fact the bengals would only have 5 is pretty crazy too
the fact the texans would barely have a top 15 pick is also funny
i guess the 4th quarter's kind of important...

That means we're 75% better than all other teams, right?

if it's such a simple fix than you would have fixed it a long time ago, like with the 9ers.

Was sitting at the bar having dinner last night when I realized I was watching the Cheez-It Bowl. Finally, the greatest snack ever has been recognized!

Didn't see all of it but it was a good game.

If I was to really take a hard look at how Greg has run the offense the whole year, there is one thing in particular that I think is kind of a criminal error.
It's the use/not use of Kenyan Drake.
Think about it. Kenyan is a serviceable but uninspiring pure runner of the ball. That being said the guy has a knack for taking quick check downs in the pass game for real games.
At points this year, albeit not a lot, we've tried to incorporate that into our offense and when we did it was really successful.
That being said, we never tried to really carve that out as a real role the way we did Duv with the fake jet sweeps. And since JK and Gus have come back, Drake's been inactive completely.
For a guy with a passing game that's hurting so bad, you'd think you'd look for the one the easiest possible solutions first. Secondarily you'd look for the unique set of skills on your roster.
For me, in this case those 2 things completely scream get the passing game going with easy passes to Drake because he's really good at that. Instead we just say your inactive. Really glad Boyle and Kolar and Ojabo are contributing!

A reporter just asked Roman about getting JK involved in the passing game. Roman literally said hey for a guy coming back let's focus on running and pass blocking.
What an idiot.

How did Michael Penix look?

Yes he deserves a chance. As managerial janitorial.

So in the event we don't win the division, who is going to travel to Jacksonville or Nashville for the Wild Card Game if we end up the 5th Seed?
Edit: Decided to look at how much the Titans and Jags playoff tickets were going for... jeez nobody is going to pay that price to see them lose in the playoffs lol.

it's also more likely we're the 6th seed than the 5th

Jaguar fans will. They're really excited for Lawrence's turn around, and the team going from hot garbage to in the playoffs.
Honestly, I'd much rather face the Titans limping into the playoffs with half the team injured than the Jaguars.
Looks like the only possible way is LAC dropping one of their final 2

I'm fully expecting the Chargers to pull a Charger and lose to the Rams on Sunday guaranteeing we will be no lower than 5th.

I’ll be driving up to Jax or flying up to Cinci. Can’t do Nashville this go round.
