I do think it only appropriate that the NY Football Giants hire Stefanski next

They love themselves some horrible Cleveland fired head coaches

I warned you guys on Daboll

You never listen

He got a playoff win with Daniel Jones, he deserves an extension if you ask me.

All time weak ass schedule

Guys a clown

 

[AmericanCrow]

Pittspuke is so godawful

I need them to not be 6 seed though

 

[aussiedude]

I would like to say f**k you to the Falcons kicker who missed at the end of the 4th to win and eliminated Seattle giving us this game over a Rams/Seattle win and in game

 

[rumply]

Prime buffering badly today

 

[aussiedude]

I didnt realise you were this dumb. Its a 6 point swing playing away to at home.

When did it move to 6. I always knew the home field advantage as 3.

My point was if you take away home playoffs for division winners and sees on wins. Not all wins are equal so even that would have issues.

If you want home games win the division.

Yeah you get a 3 point advantage at home and a 3 point disadvantage away. 3+3= what is the swing ? C'mon, basic math.

The 11 win team likely starts as favourite as the home team in most cases so saying a 13 team should be able to beat an 11 win team on the road like it's a 90% chance is just silly.

Not how that works

 

[AJ_2000]

NFL city hall not even trying to hide the script....

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Not how that works

Two equal teams, the difference between playing as a home or road team is a six points swing.

Teams are never equal

Nor are the fanbases

 

[aussiedude]

Crazy to think if Dallas never touched the blocked punt Cincinnati might already be eliminated.

Kept alive by a crazy play against a bad team

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

For arguments sake we are saying they are. Sure there are teams that will play better on the road than most and some home fields are better than others ie: dome teams with a noodlearm QB are at a bigger disadvantage playing in winter elements.

 

[Johnny Bananas]

I guess we will see him taken day 3 if the media and PR campaign don't trick some dumb GM into taking him against what his scouts say. (Looking at you Giants and Raiders)

If there's only one QB worth a first round pick, teams will be making godfather offers for JJ McCarthy.

 

[drd23]

Not how that works

Yes it is. HFA is compared to a neutral site, not flipping the location completely (although HFA is more like 2-2.5pts these days than the 3pts it has traditionally been)

 

[Paul Kersey]

**** the audio to the ESPN NBA ad pisses me off. ‘What a minute…’.

 

[aussiedude]

Then shouldn't be a concern for the Lions they are at home tomorrow.

Or are they afraid of Tampa because they have only played 3 games outside of a dome all season. Good teams win anywhere. If they are not good enough to win in Tampa they were not good enough to win it all anyway.

Changing seeding opens the debate for other possible debates on soft schedules and inflated wins getting higher seeds over better who have 1 extra loss or because of a tiebreaker.

Also yeah upsets happen like 7-9 Seattle winning the beastquake game over defending superbowl champions 11 win Saints.

The league schedule isn't even anyway. So seeding on wins already has issues with quality of opposition and road win where is a 50/50 crowd or true road games. Or the extra game now being a home game vs a international game.


We don't want a CFP type mess because if you seed on wins it's a debate on quality wins or inflated wins boosting your record

 

[aussiedude]

It's going to be funny when the Bengals win and end up knocked our because Denver win by forfeit if KC can fly in

 

[hawkman]

It's going to be funny when the Bengals win and end up knocked our because Denver win by forfeit if KC can fly in

And even if KC win they are relying on the Jets so they are no hope

 

[aussiedude]

Suddenly the 10sec runoff declined doesn't look stupid. Not over 1min for Rus to throw a pick 6

 

[aussiedude]

Lol

 

[aussiedude]

Surely in that spot it should be a full review not a 5 sec quick look by the booth judge

The plane is on it's way to Denver.
