Maybe you're right, maybe they've finally put together all of those pieces and aren't paper tigers anymore. 

And maybe I'm wrong as well. It certainly wouldn't be the first time I predicted team greatness based on individual talents, rather than how well they put everything together on the field.

Carr pulled his groin tonight and knowing how those injuries are I doubt he's going to be ready to play when they play the Dolphins. Mariotta is his backup. I'll reserve my judgement whether this helps the Dolphins chances in that game till I watch the rest of the game.

Carr just pulled his groin for the Raiders and is out of the game. Very unlikely he returns as a pulled groin is just not an injury you can tough it as it kills your mobility and hurts like a bitch.

They're down 7-3 to the Chargers now. If they lose, they're basically out of the playoffs, plus the Chargers get to 5 wins and leapfrog the Texans in the draft. So, two things to root for.

And with that I don't think having Mariotta under center increases the Dolphins chances.

He's definitely had a hot start, thank God Herbert is willing his team to victory.

I'm warming up to Tua, but I'd still rather have Herbert.

Talk about a potential butterfly effect if MIA ends up losing to LV:

- Tannehill doesn't play well on the Dolphins, get traded to TEN
- Mariota doesn't play well on TEN, gets benched for Tannehill
- Mariota signs with LV, Carr gets injured, Mariota replaces him
- Mariota beats MIA, knocking them out of the playoff chase

In a sense, this could be Tannehill stopping the Dolphins from reaching the playoffs again.

That's funny. Mayfield was the guy I really wanted.

Chargers Win!

Anthony Lynn is just the worst coach in the NFL. The in game management is Rich Kitite with a drinking problem. The Chargers job will be the most coveted in the offseason. Franchise QB, great weather, new stadium and decent amount of talent.

Raiders are basically done, let's hope they realize that next Saturday and roll over for us.

Best chance for Miami to make the playoffs now I believe is for Cleveland to lost to the Giants.

Let's see if Daniel Jones plays. They can lose to the Giants and Steelers, but not the Jets. So, do we own the 10-6 tiebreakers over them?

That's actually kind of funny. It's really hard to see how simple things can effect life but that is certainly the case.

Yes. If Miami beats New England and Las Vegas and Cleveland loses to the Giants and Steelers, Miami will make the playoffs. Another scenario would be Indy losing to Houston and the Steelers and finishing 10-6 and Miami would win the tie breakers there as well. I think either of those scenario's are more likely then the Ravens losing to either the Jags or the Bengals.

Bills are killing the Broncos so they win the division, no surprise.

How the fuck did we lose to the Broncos? Might be the game that keeps us out of the playoffs.

Nothing really changed because everyone won this week with the Browns playing the Giants tonight. They lose and we are tied at 9-5, plus the Giants get that 6th win and very likely won't drop below the Texans in the draft order.
