I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving weekend! As always, this post is to really see what’s going on around the league after yesterday’s games. Who’s playing well, who’s playing poorly, complaints about your team losing, whatever it is.
Here’s what I took away from this week:
Dolphins are going to run away with the AFC east crown
On a similar note, the pats and jets are done for the year and the bills have a tough road to win the division.
Broncos Country is finally riding again.
Matt canada really WAS that bad after all. Maybe the steelers offense is alright now.
Chargers fucked up drafting Quentin Johnston over Zay Flowers. Best waiver wire pickup this season for me.
the playoff race is going to be really interesting over the next few weeks.
What are some of your reactions?

I really wish my team was bad so I could laugh. Instead my team is insanely talented and we find creative ways to lose games we should win.
Really it’s the hope that kills you.
I saw Peter Carroll playing with some puppies on Thanksgiving and I’m now over my irrational hatred of that gum chewing dude.
Somebody in our sub was complaining the other day about him throwing his gum away on the sideline and how gross and disrespectful it is.
Idgi, man.
Ravens are frauds and that will come to light when they play a true SB contender

I want to fucking die
Turns out… Our teams have a lot in common
I never wanted that
Watching that Bills Defense let Philly March down the field at the end of the game and OT brought back flashbacks of Zimmer’s toward the end of his time with us. That Gabe Davis miscommunication had to keep him up all night last night. And the missed FGs, Bills are the AFC Vikings
Despite their tough schedule I think the bills totally have a shot to get a wild card spot in the AFC
I’m kinda getting worried about the Eagles- not because of a close win, but because I keep on thinking this team is gonna “click,” they haven’t reached their full potential. They’re still my Super Bowl pick though.
I’m also worried about the ravens, our 2 blowout wins against NFC “contenders” keep on looking less impressive.
Not a take on the games themselves, It’s 2:00 so I’m guessing that Brandon Staley is gonna stay for at least another week for some godforsaken reason- how does this guy still have a job.
Eagles - Dolphins, calling it now.
Refs are either being paid off or they have bets in Vegas, I don’t know which, but it was egregious yesterday Jags v Texans.
/yeah yeah, one game, but MAN, that was a piss poorly called game for sure, one of the worst cases of ‘why have refs at all?’.
Yikes
McDermott is officially coaching for his job. Josh Allen is 0-6 in OT and yet in every one of those losses, he has not the been the final one to touch the ball. Think back to every instant classic the Bills have played over the past few seasons.
Hail Murray? Bills defense cannot stop a desperation heave.
13 seconds? Bills defense gives up two consecutive huge plays to Mahomes to force OT where the defense would give way again.
Vikings JJ catch? It was 4th and forever, maybe it was destined but the defense has to make a better effort to make sure he cannot catch the ball.
I could continue but I obviously relent with the same thing I have said since their Divisional loss in 2021: McDermott is a great coach but an awful game manager. If his team isn’t thrashing the opposition he does not have the nerves and rationality to call a game. The number of times this man has rolled out Cover 4 or Prevent when only up by a single score is staggering.
100% agree. We won’t ever win anything as long as he’s our coach.
Sirianni is a terrible game manager that gets bailed out by high end talent
The usage of Keenan Allen / Ekeler is like someone playing Madden. Keenan Allen has a strong chance of passing his career high in receptions next week. He is also 31.
I think the Jags won the AFCS yesterday, and its now down to the Colts and Texans fighting for a WC spot (assuming the rest of the AFC doesn’t fall off a cliff and let three AFCS teams in).
The Jags schedule is fairly easy from here on out:
vs. Bengals
@ Browns
vs. Ravens
@ Buccaneers
vs. Panthers
@ Titans
Apart from the Browns and Ravens games, I can easily see the Jags running over the rest of that schedule. The Texans and Colts down the stretch:
Colts Texans @ Titans vs. Broncos @ Bengals @ Jets vs. Steelers @ Titans @Falcons vs. Browns vs. Raiders vs. Titans vs. Texans @ Colts I think teams will officially stop sleeping on the Broncos after hanging 29 on the Browns.
3 of the next 6 are division games along with the Lions and Texans. Broncos gonna need to keep that chip on their shoulder until the fat lady sings if they want a shot at the playoffs.
i’m a fat lady that took some years of vocal training into college, reporting for duty
I’m tired, boss
Ravens have a chance to win the AFC
If we make the playoffs this year and Love continues to play well, this season is an absolute W.
If he really turns into another franchise QB…
The NY Giants’ 3rd-string quarterback is barely putting together drives for touchdowns to beat garbage teams and Giants’ fans are developing Stockholm Syndrome for him because he leans into Italian Stereotypes for the memes. Giants fans are also wondering if it was a good idea for Schoen to say out-loud that they’re probably looking at adding to the QB position next draft, even though the current QB room has a contracted QB that can’t get back to his personal record of 15 TDs a season, a second-string QB who’s perennially injured or is making the most risk-averse throws in the NFL, or a third-string QB whose current claim-to-fame is that he still lives with his parents; this third-string QB is also throwing more TDs in a game than the contracted starter.
I never thought I’d say this, but I’m looking forward to some Eagles’ end-of-season shellackings - that should wake this fan base up to the fact that Jones, Taylor, and CERTAINLY DeVito are nowhere near the answer and if they want to stay competitive with a division that has Hurts, Prescott, and even Howell in their division, they need to upgrade the QB position and QUICK.
You aren’t welcome at the post beating the Eagles party then
