Week 15 Discussion Thread

[Whitebacon]

Not to mention he's still got Cundiff and Gates. Feeling much better now.

[GTAXI]

How the hell can Oakland STILL be so badly coached? 99 yards and they let the Lions go down the field like a warm knife through butter. They leave Megatron wide open down ther middle for 43 yards, and then single cover him in the red zone...unbelievable.

Not only that, but how about Hue not going for 2 points when they went ahead 2 Td with about 7 mins left. I told my daughter that decision would come back to bite them, and it did.

[Mithrandir]

Fantasy football is a joke..I'm losing because CJ Spiller has more fantasy points this week than he's had in his entire career...and this is the first time ALL YEAR the guy i'm playing has started Spiller..because Gore is playing the Steelers i guess..

[Judge Jude]

Chiefs are 6-8, have allowed 319 pts
Eagles are 6-8, have allowed 311 pts

But Eagles have scored 342 to Chiefs'..... 192

[Whitebacon]

When the Chiefs lose, they lose BIG.

[onejayhawk]

Who had the Chiefs beating the Packers??

Yo.

Not really. Just hoping. One of the Packer players was talking about it a couple weeks ago.

BTW, if the Bills beat the Broncos, and the Chiefs win out, the whole division could be 8-8. Chiefs hol the tie breaker.

Big game tonight between Pittsburgh & San Francisco. Pittsburgh can put itself into the drivers seat for the #1 seed in the AFC, with a win tonight. The Steelers end the season vs St. Louis & at Cleveland. The 49ers need to win tonight to keep pace with New Orleans in the race for the #2 seed in the NFC.

1. If the Cowboys beat the Eagles OR the Giants beat the Jets in Week 16, the Eagles are eliminated.

2. If the Eagles lose either one of their final two games -- Week 16 in Dallas or Week 17 against the Redskins -- they are eliminated.

3. If the Cowboys and Giants both win in Week 16, the winner of the Week 17 Cowboys-Giants game will be division champ.

4. The Cowboys are the only one of the three teams that can clinch the division in Week 16. The Giants and Eagles could both be eliminated by Week 16 results. The Cowboys cannot.

[if Eagles beat Cowboys Sunday, it's 7-8 Eagles and 8-7 Cowboys. If Giants lose to Jets, they are 7-8. Then Giants can win division if they beat the Cowboys AND the Eagles lose to the Redskins. Or Eagles can win division if they win and Giants beat Cowboys. complication is that if all 3 are alive, which game gets flexed to Sun night Jan 1? I guess Giants-Cowboys, but if Eagles win, then they are 8-8, Cowboys 8-7, and doomed Giants are 7-8 and all they can do is knock Cowboys out. Wait, they'd take that.]

Aldon Smith <--- Defensive ROY.


Though Von Miller probably has the inside track on it.

Miller will likely win it, but Smith is a beast.
