So it looks like the Patriots really are that good and they can win without a passing game. Very impressive.

Might we see the Patriots and Tampa Bay in the Super Bowl? They played each other earlier this season with the Bucs edging New England. I'm not wanting that Super Bowl matchup to happen but it would be compelling.

I froze to death during that game. Just looking at them and those flags whipping around the colors they were turning. LOL

It was a good game! I was kind of rooting for the Bills but I didn't really care. haha

Crazy!

The Packers aren't blowing other teams out but they sure know how to win. Their defence has faltered a bit from the middle part of the season but then again they intercepted Mayfield four times today. In terms of the offence, with Rodgers and Adams on the field they have the potential to beat any team. If I were betting today I might bet that the Super Bowl will be a rematch of Super Bowl I (not that it was called the Super Bowl back then). Green Bay vs Kansas City would be an intriguing matchup.

I was so busy I didn't really get to watch that game but I saw enough to see all the interceptions. One of my friends on facebook said Baker Mayfield needs to stick to doing commercials. lol

So if NFL playoffs were held now, here is matchups.

Baltimore vs Tennessee
New England vs Cincinnati
Indianapolis vs Buffalo

Philadelphia vs Dallas
San Francisco vs LA Rams
Arizona vs Tampa Bay

Kansas City and Green Bay get first round bye.

I don't see many sure bets there. Maybe Dallas over Philly but otherwise either team could win in each of those matchups. With a couple of weeks to go there could be quite a shakeup in those pairings but there is no one team or not even a very small group of teams that are all that dominant.

Green Bay and Kansas City are playing great right now and if they do make it to the Super Bowl, in Los Angeles, there will be some nostalgia there. We have a long way to go before that happens though.

I'm going to say this outloud. I wonder who Aaron Donald (Rams) will hurt on the 49ers? He's pretty good at that.

I hope someone in the NFL is keeping track of the broken bones he has caused, and the ones he's attempted. The NFL needs to give him the Suh treatment.

But back on topic...lol I wouldn't try to pick a winner in any of those games. It's been such a strange year!

OH! This last night during the WFT and Cowboys game!

I feel horrible for Antonio Brown. I hope he gets the help he needs. :(

[seewood]

^^^ love highlights...

[ferri]

I do too. That's where I can get stuck wasting a lot of time because one highlight leads to another...

5 of today’s final season games have playoff possibilities (some less so then others), the others are pretty well meaningless.

Enjoy the games, anything could happen on any given Sunday.
