It’s a QB driven league. We have the best along with the HC. The Chargers have a good one who is slightly overrated with a poor coach. The Raiders/Broncos have bad QBs and coaches. [Reply]
Do we need anyone to lose? With a tie breaker we have a 4 game lead on Chargers with 5 to go. A win gives us the same lead even if Chargers win with 4 to go.
Division has been a given since the start of the season in my mind. I'm more interested in Buffalo shiting the bed so Arrowhead is home of the play offs. [Reply]

Miami currently has the tie-breaker on Buffalo. If Miami and Buffalo tie for the east division, that tie has to be resolved before resolving any tie between the division winner and other division winners. We could get the #1 seed over Miami in a tie, but not over Buffalo unless Miami were to eliminate them first. [Reply]

The Chargers would be among the best teams without all the injuries. The Raiders are a talented team that just finds ways to lose.
The Broncos are basically where I expected them to be all along. Just a little worse offensively. [Reply]

Lot of people looked at the on paper stuff and thought they'd be good, but nobody really examined the coaching.
Staley is an idiot, long may he reign as off-season champ.
McDaniels was already a failed head coach that crawled back to Bill Belly Checks nest. He has lived up to what anyone taking more than a glance at him expected.
Hackett was a spectacular first time failure HC, and Russ falling off the cliff was a pretty big shock, but it's clear that Hackett can't hack it. Offensively scoring at a rate less than the 0-16 Browns team. [Reply]

If I mess with the ESPN playoff machine, it looks like if Miami wins their division, they hold the tie breaker with us in the event there is one. So if they pretty much win out, which is possible, and we drop one to say, Seattle, they would get the 1 seed. [Reply]
