Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
A little unfair to ask teams to play MNF.

Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
I might be overthinking it, but the Eagles could beat Tampa.
That offense without Godwin and Brown is going to be challenging. It's definitely easier to gameplan to stop Evans and Gronk.

Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
I hope whoever wins on MNF gets the latest possible slot in the divisional round. I think that would be SNF, but not sure. If they have to turn around and play on Saturday then having MNF in the playoffs is some bush league profiteering on the NFLs part (again).
Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
Besides, I doubt they will schedule the winner of that game to play Saturday. More days of football = more $$$realmacaroni wrote: ↑Thu Jan 13, 2022 5:35 pm Meh. The NFL week isn’t static anymore. 5 days off, 10 days off, 2 weeks off…the pros can handle it

No matter what that defense does to Brady, I can't see them running consistently enough against Vita Vea.Cameron Giles wrote: ↑Thu Jan 13, 2022 5:42 pm I might be overthinking it, but the Eagles could beat Tampa.

Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
They don't care about that stuff, only about ratings (money). I agree FWIW. I just know the NFL only cares about money, when you boil it right down.

Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
I know what Vegas is saying, but I don't view this an upset at all. 49ers are playing very well down the stretch
I am just a guy sharing some thoughts
Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
When i think of playoffs i look at the QBs first and the rest after, doing it that way i think its an upset but i understand your point.

Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
Based on the Vegas line, SF winning would be an upset. This game does have the smallest spread of any this weekend.
If you look at QBs first though, Jimmy G may have been better over the second half of the season than Dak, so SF may actually have the advantage here (especially if you throw out the week 18 game where Dak got to play against a practice squad defense). The 49ers are probably the most popular “upset” pick I’m seeing.

Re: Wild Card Weekend Discussion
Not a reverse jinx at all. The Pats can certainly beat the Bills but im not picking them. The bills are the better offense with the better QB. Do i absolutely love the direction the Pats are heading in? Yes. Mac looks awesome for a real life QB, i love Barmore, Stevenson, Harris, Duggar, Jackson, etc. However Josh Allen is a superstar and has a superstar WR. The pats havent shown the ability to keep up with these kinds of teams and Mac just isnt there yet. I hope im wrong but i dont think i will be

Definition of the reverse-jinx: A prediction which is the opposite of the outcome desired by the person making it.
