2020 Miscellaneous NFL News

The AFC matchups are starting to look really interesting to me for next weekend. They NFC games look like they are going to be pretty meh...

 

The only NFC game that looks interesting is the Seahawks/Rams matchup.

So what's the deal here? If Tennessee loses are they out of the playoffs?

[wildcat83]

1st and 10 with 22 seconds left and Seattle completes a pass instead of taking a knee. Pretty sure SF was out of timeouts. Was a small scuffle at the end of the game, but can't believe that didn't cause an all out brawl.

No, still a wildcard I think.

WOW! AJ Brown!

Because Miami lost, Tennessee still gets in, though they lost the division if they had lost.

E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!

E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!

 

I put $20 on the Eagles just so I had someone to root for. Figured it was worth the gamble at +240. I think this will be a low scoring, ugly football game.

Bills - Rams - Bucs

Titans - Bears - Browns

It's not a good sign for the Bears when their game is on Nickelodeon.

I think the colts can be the sleeper team in the AFC that everyone overlooks.

That's a pretty solid squad.

If they weren't playing the Bills I might agree.

[PinaMadness]

Dumb not to kick the field goal there.

[MadThinker88]

Both the Steelers & Browns had a number of players missing today (some for rest, others due to Covid).

 

It will be interesting to see which players are able to return from the covid list for the game next Sunday night...

Might even be a determining factor of who wins..

[yourout]

Giants are going to be pissed

[PinaMadness]

Nate Sudfeld? Really? You may as well have activated Wentz. It's not Hurts' fault you decided against a field goal to tie the game, Doug.

As if the eagles and Giants didn't hate each other enough Peterson just threw a whole mountain of kindling on next year's games.

[PinaMadness]

Well this turned into a in a hurry. The dream is over.

[adambr2]

Well this turned into a ****show in a hurry. The dream is over.

 

Still a 6 point game. Of course that's a mountain to climb if Doug plans on sticking with Nate Sudfeld.

[wildcat83]

You are using a NFL regular season game with playoff implications to evaluate your 3rd string quarterback, who MIGHT be your backup next year???? If Hurts is your guy, then he needs every possible rep to learn from heading into next year. This is just plain dumb.

[adambr2]

Yeah, no matter what else he says, this is nothing more than a petty bush league move by Doug Pederson to stick it to a division rival. There's no logical reason to bench Hurts for Sudfeld. Hurts needs reps in games like this. If you were benching a vet for a young 2nd round rookie, I'd get it. It's not like Sudfeld is your future in any way.
