Arizona, Niners, Carolina, KC, Miami, Colts and Seattle (though played a hapless giants team) all played good, doing what they need to do.

Dallas, Philly, Saints...all bad. Denver on Thursday and the Pats today disappoint. I'm less confident now of the Pats after today's loss to Miami.

Kansas City and the 49ers look a little better in my mind, but not enough to overcome Seattle, Denver and the Pats.

A lot on the line supposedly in tonight's Cincy - Steelers game...I'd like to see the Bengals win this one as its been awhile since they've been on top, and I like seeing the Pats squirm watching from afar.

One of the few times I'm cheering for the Cowboys and they come up with one of the biggest chokes in history! 34 second half points for the Pack!?! Romo chokes again late in the game. I was so happy that the Bears won so they are now (temporarily) in first place in the NFC North. I got a bad feeling that it'll come down to the final week when they play Green Bay and Aaron Rogers will be back and they'll win to knock the Bears out of the playoffs.

looks like you're right about Chicago and Green Bay. Such a huge game, comeback win for Green Bay.

Dallas just SUCKS!

Did New England lose to Miami today?

And now Cincinnati is already down 21 in the first quarter to Pittsburgh.

It aint over until the thinnly challenged woman sings... and on any given Sunday in the NFL any team can beat any other team... ya gotta love it.

Kansas City - What a joke for a football team. Again they will lose the rest of the season.

LMAO, again, at you, again. Do you ever make non-drivel posts?

Next time you get banned, again, when you come back, again,
you should use the screen name "Dumb as a bag of Rocks", it fits you perfectly.

KC certainly looked mighty on Sunday. Great D rules!

Nice rehearsal for February by the mighty Hawks. Looks like that will be the next road game for us. The rest of the NFC playoff contenders have to be decidedly unhappy!><

my comments on the jets needs for the next season and who stays and who goes.

WR:
-Kerley- keep him. the heart and soul of the receivers. he is s solid 2nd or 3rd option
-Holmes- exact opposite. overpaid diva who puts more effort into running his mouth then catching passes. too many injury issues. release him and save some money
-Nelson- keep him. another guy who gives it his all
-Stephen Hill- release him. doesn't appear to be progressing any. he is a good deep threat but its not worth keeping him. injury issues already after 2 years

any other WR can go and the jets can draft or sign a good free agent and get a top WR threat

TE:
-Cumberland- keep him
-Winslow jr.- tough call because we know he has injury issues and will be 31 next year with the bad knees. he has played almost every game though and he commands extra attention still.

look for a move in the offseason especially if winslow jr is gone.

RB:
really no complaints here. great duo
-Ivory- looks like a keeper
-Powell- looks like a keeps.

FB:
- Bohanon- keep him. rookie who was thrust into his spot due to and injury to Hilliard during preseason. Don't remember Hilliard playing better or worse last year

QB:
-Sanchez- bye bye
-Smith- keep him. most QBs develop the most their first 3 seasons. lets give him some real weapons and see what happens

O-LINE:
as a whole they are ok in the middle but have issues on the edge. maybe look to upgrade at least one of the players who help protect on the edge.

Other offensive players who are out due to injury:
-Gates- release him. he sucks. not sure how he got a spot on the team the last 2 years
-Cribbs- keep him if he can come back healthy. he was instant impact before he hurt his shoulder
-Goodson- he was amazing the few games he played but tore his ACL/MCL. also was suspended 4 games for violating PED policy and has pending gun charges. probably a release due to injury and conduct issues.



Defense:
The Jets shine here and are pretty young. i'd look into 1 safety and 1 CB for next year and hope a few of the injured guys can come back

AAA man AAA!!! That man can run... and catch... and run... FUN!!!

Hey Max, out of curiousity, do you follow the Jayhawks basketball? Just asking because they have Canadian freshman Andrew Wiggins on the team and sounds like he could be a #1 pick for the NBA. TSN, which is the Canadian ESPN is showing all the Jayhawks games this year. I personally don't follow US college basketball but it is interesting to see all the hype up here.

I thought it was hilarious in the post-game when the kicker was talking about how good the game had been for his fantasy team.

and that ends the jets playoff chances

People have been saying Detroit has chance to beat Seahawks. I don't see them coming into Century Link with 70,000 rabid Seahawk fans, all liquored up & going for the Super Bowl. Just ain't gonna happen this year! I predict Seattle/Carolina for NFC Championship. In a bit of ironic symetry, Seahawks started the year in Carolina & defeated them to go to Super Bowl 8 years ago. I think the ultimate result will be better this year.

Do you want Lynch to face that defense? Although both teams are good, that match up would probably a low scoring, and not very exciting affair, probably decided by my buddy Steven Hauschka (not really my close buddy, but I have been happy several times with the points he scored for me as my weekly pick for kicker).


Still 2 weeks to go and some good games yet to be played, GOTTA LOVE IT!

I had a dream & here's how the Seahawks road to the Super Bowl is going to go: 2nd round beat the 40Whiners. NFC championship defeat Carolina. Super Bowl: Seattle/KC. Defense rules! Hawks win. I know Max's may have a different opinion but I've been shockingly correct on some of these dream flashes before. GO HAWKS!><

If you can correctly predict the Chiefs into the Super Bowl I would be overly satisifed, SUPER DELIGHTED as a matter fact. I WOULD LOVE TO JUST SEE THEM GET THERE, they dont even have to win.

But there are many variables in play, it takes a lot more than just skill and talent to get into the Super Bowl, let alone win it.

Facts be known I am pretty dang happy with what the Chiefs did this year. It has been a fun year, after 5-6 dreadful, horrible dark years. I hope we can obtain 3-4 wide receivers, 1-2 of which might be great, then if we can keep our defense in place, we are looking great for next year too.

As I'm mainly a Giants fan (though big time football fan), I admire the Chiefs defense...would prefer them to get even stronger.

Would be interesting to see how things go if San Diego wins last two games and sneeks into playoffs. Would they upset one of the big playoff teams?

They already did, last week, and if San Diego can beat Denver I would (STRONGLY) suggest any teams playing them to bring their best game to field.

These last 2 weeks are going to be a blast!!!
win lose or draw, anything can happen... it has been a weird year.
