Sean Payton is the same guy who let Taysom Hill take snaps away from Drew Brees, so it’s total possible he’s good with the idea of Murray.

True, but I don’t know if any ideal situation is opening up this offseason. He did coach in New Orleans. Benson was never held in high regard before Payton and Brees turned things around.

I don’t care if we get the Fish or Ravens. It’s likely we’ll still need to beat the Bengals and/or Chiefs. I fully understand your point, we don’t want to get knocked out by a familiar divisional opponent, but we aren’t winning a Super Bowl if we can’t beat the Fish at home in January.

I wouldn’t want to see them because I don’t like playing familiar division foes. If they lose today, it’s a four game losing streak. I’m not sure I’d consider them a good team. They’ve fallen apart in the second half of the season. Their talent is a bit scary. Players like Hill and Waddle could help them beat anyone, but I’m no longer sold on them as a contender of any sort.

Fair enough, it seemed longer, but my real point is that going forward we’ll see some bad playoff teams. The Commanders have a Wentz/Heinecke QB battle, and they could be a playoff team.

A Miami loss would be nice, but they’re still right in the mix. That’s my issue with the seven team playoff, the seventh seed often isn’t very good.

Tua is awful when things go off schedule.

That’s fair, I just think it’s premature to say McDaniels stinks as a coach. Miami has improved this season, and I’m not sure what more people expect from that team. I know Bills fans don’t like praising Fish, but there’s worse coaches out there. I mention his players like him because this board talks like he’s in over his head in the NFL. The same league has Hackett, and Josh McDaniel running a playoff team into the ground.

I think they’ve gotten a lot out of Tua, I’m not sold on him, but he benefits from Waddle and Hill. Tua vs Mahomes is the difference between those teams in the red zone. I agree, but that’s what happens with a middle of the pack QB.

His players like him, and that’s what matters, not guys opinions on the internet. I understand not liking him as the coach of the Fish, but he’s been a good fit for them. I’m not sure how people can argue against that.

Receivers are generally under valued in today’s QB crazed NFL. They aren’t given enough credit for their role in the success of the QB. Look what Jefferson has done for Cousins In Minnesota.

The Packers have never cared about upsetting Rodgers, it’s time to bench him for the rest of this season. They need to look at the future.

The Packers are terrible. Don’t care what anyone says, Rodgers looks like he doesn’t care. Technically they’re in the NFC playoff chase.

Tua with sleeves in Miami is humorous to me for some reason (yes, I know it’s “cold”).

Fundamentally sound drive there.

Properly using our offensive talent might be our greatest weakness. We click on all cylinders when we do, but then get away from it.

True, but at some point you need to assess your highly drafted QB. Putting him in a bunch of third and longs isn’t fair.

They really don’t trust Fields at all. I thought this Bears coach was an offensive guru.

The Bears need to get Fields NFL receivers and actually throw the ball before they can properly assess him.

The crowd isn’t much better. I’m sure weather and the Bears failures reduce attendance, but that stadium never seems raucous. The stands seem a million miles from the field too.

I’m feeling good now, we’re running the ball, they aren’t running well, and Fields can’t do it by himself. I think it’s finally under control.

Huge plays in the run game, Josh needs someone to take the pressure of him. You can tell it’s that type of day. All QB’s have them.

Bad news is that we’re down, the good news is we win if Allen comes out of halftime his normal self.

That’s all I could think, but that’s quite negative thinking from a coaching staff with a team competing for home field advantage.

Glad McD took a timeout, that’s the stuff of champions.
