Title: Week Eighteen - 2021
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on January 09, 2022, 01:22:51 PM
Jags up on Indy!

I threw a little bit on a Jags ML and Raiders/Chargers tie parlay just in case. Would pay like $2600 on a $6 bet.

Let's see chaos today.

Colts have failed to convert on fourth down around midfield. Jags have a chance to go up two scores now.

im much better at breaking tv skeds than draft order but i think an indy loss, beyond being hysterical, would drop them to 16 provided NO wins

miami L can get them to 12...eagles will be at 32 of course

pittsburgh might well be the 7 seed and they will get crushed by kc

The league probably wants to get rid of ties for excitement reasons.

Don't think it has anything to do with the possibility of a blatant agreement to tie. If any teams tried that in a way that looked at all intentional, the league office would hand them both forfeits anyway.

The bigger threat to competitive football is rewarding losers in the draft order, and that hasn't moved the league at all to introduce a lottery.

not sure if the cowboys stick at 430 sunday, which is a cbs game, or stick with fox either at 1 sunday or 8 saturday

eagles/bucs i feel like is headed to SNF, thats my guess.

I agree but wonder if there is any hesitation about putting a west coast game in the spot. Some people out here are still working when that shtein typically starts.

The other 4/5 seed game will be the Pats or Vegas at Cincy. Vegas at Cincy sounds like a traditional Marvin Lewis-era Saturday afternoon special. If the Patriots are involved maybe the game gets better placement.

nah i dont think thatll have anything to do with it...its 2 weak draw teams which is what the MNF spot was always gonna get

lv/cin does indeed feel locked for the sat 430 special. i think buf/lac is the other option?

but really this could go any number of ways. theres not much history to base anything off of and no more serious network designations so i dunno

so what happened here is they decided to give cbs not only the best timeslot but the best game. lucky them. fox got the 2nd best nfc game and since they didnt want any networks to double dip on sunday, it goes to 1:00. thats where your eagles are.

nbc gets the best afc game...the other 3 games were basically interchangeable

Go launch Staley off the farging Hoover Dam! Him calling that timeout was asinine.

Would've netted $2580 off a $7 bet!

Incredibly stupid move by Staley.  Not like LA talk radio gives a rats ass about the Bolts.  Would love to hear some reaction.

i dont think the timeout did anything...raiders were running 3 times then kicking. perhaps the stoppage allowed them to call a better play but they have a great kicker who can nail a 57 yarder.

america loses by having to watch the stupid steelers and their washed up qb

Carr said the TO changed their thinking and there's a clip of the Raiders Las telling Ekeler they were gonna kneel it

Damn lol

This has pretty much been debunked. The dagger was the 10 yard run by Jacobs that the Chargers gave up, not the timeout. That was really bad run defense. if they had stopped that up we would have gotten a tie, since I don't think the Raiders would have attempted 55+ yards.

Maybe the Chargers don't give up 10 yards out of the original pre-timeout play, but maybe they give up 25 instead. Staley called the TO to sub in his "better" run stoppers.

I'll say that throughout the whole end of the game, both phases of the Chargers seemed to be running on fumes and only surviving by miracle after miracle (largely by Herbert), while the Raiders had energy in reserve. Chargers seemed out-conditioned and ultimately they were outplayed when it mattered on that final drive. From a neutral POV the better team won. Chargers choked like always.

Good point.

How the Raiders defense wasn't passed out from those long continuous drives was amazing.
