How about this for people:
Scenerio: Bills are 12-3 going into the last game. The Steelers are also 13-2 or 12-3 going into the last game. Would you rest your starters or play for the chance at the 2 seed?
Edit: Chiefs are 14-1 and the Bills have no chance at the 1 seed
I would have gone for it at 4th and Goal. Your defense can't stop anyone. If you don't get it you hope the defense does but the Raiders didn't play for the win imo
You kick a FG and you put it back to Herbert who has lit up for defense. You score a TD you win. You don't convert they still have to go the same yardage for a tie.
Can't wait for more exciting commentating from Aikmen. What next? "Raiders probably won't get a FG until 4th down"? Maybe "if the ball crosses the plane it's a TD!". Can't wait!
I agree. When the "Who would you trade Allen for" topic was up Hebert was in my "it's a conversation tier". I think I'd take Allen but these two may end up being very similar QBs in the next few years
It's a 2 QB league. He was already at a points disadvantage from projected scoring but it's a QB higher scoring league (6 point TDs, 1 point for Completion) He has almost no chance to win without getting 40 points from a QB. I actually feel for him.
It's odd. This is a decision imo. I think you shoot the the #2 seed. However if you settle for the 3 seed you could get a week of rest. Makes that a discussion imo.
