Casinos cashing in on all those Purdy MVP bets

You know the NFL would love a Flacco v Ravens matchup in the divisional round. Schwarz could get that Browns D ready with something to stop Lamar.

I have a feeling Tua and the Dolphins are going to get roughed up next week and not fare very well. The Dolphins are already banged up. And they lose to Ravens next week, they’re going to be in rough shape in a matchup for the #2 seed in Week 18.

They aren’t coming back tonight. Ravens beating them up in all facets of this game.

They will still need to win to secure the 1 seed though

Unfortunately a Ravens win likely ends Josh’s hopes of MVP. If Ravens then beat Miami, Lamar will likely be MVP. If Miami beats Ravens, Miami wins the division and I don’t see Josh getting MVP if the Bills don’t even win the division.

Well you said McD gonna fail on the big stage. Are there certain NFC teams he won’t fail against? If so, I’d like you to tell me which ones to cheer for.

So you’d prefer we don’t even get to the Super Bowl at all?

No way, one of McD’s strengths is having time to prepare. And you wouldn’t take 3 INTs from Purdy in the 1st half of the Super Bowl?

MVP odds shifting big time with this first half. On DraftKings, Purdy now only -105, Lamar +300, CMC all the way down to +450 and Josh next at +1400. CMC is the only one I’d consider an MVP over Josh.

Purdy turning into Peterman?

I take playing against this Brock Purdy in Vegas this February

Anyone who knows football, knows that CMAC is way more important to the 49ers than Purdy, among many other factors.

They announced Bills Miami isn’t getting flexed?

Leading up to this weekend, I was sure we’d be flexed into Sun @ 4:25 or 8 pm. If we both have clinched playoff spots and the game is for the division and #2 seed instead, I could see this game being Sat night @ 8 pm instead. We will see how it plays out….

Let’s hope Steelers and Bengals can both lose next weekend, so that possibility is off the table.

So if we get to the 2 seed, I like our odds against anyone we’d have to face in our house, and if we have to play in Baltimore for the AFC championship, I like our odds there too.

I don’t think we can pass the Browns or Ravens for the 5, isn’t it conference record that would hold us back?

If Chiefs lose, I think we could only either be 2, 6 or 7.

Good thing their defense is joining the cause 😉

I had hope, if only because McKenzie was so inconsistent and thinking Josh could bring the best out of this guy (Josh often does with other players). Instead, he’s been less effective than I’d say even McKenzie ever was.

I agree with that narrative being dumb. If you’ve already won the first two, it should be more likely to that you also win the third.

I remember some of the mid-90 teams being pretty up-and-down. The HOFers were entering the twilight of their careers, and the OL had started to deteriorate too. This year is different, in that injuries have decimated the defense and the offense has been struggling with its identity. In my mind, that’s part of the reason to still have optimism about this team making a run. The AFC is looking especially weak, the defense has seemingly stabilized, and since Brady has taken over, the offense has generally looked better. The turnovers the other night were the biggest reason an inspired Chargers team were able to stay in the game. I’m optimistic this team will be extra sharp next Sunday and beyond.
