• Can desperate SF overcome injuries and the Packers at Lambeau?
• Can streaking Arizona win their 6th in a row against a host Seattle team coming off their best win of the season (@ SF)?
• Will Philly win their 7th in a row or will the Rams hold serve and win their 5th in the last 6?
• Minnesota @ Chicago: will Caleb remain/regain his developmental momentun? Will Darnold turn into a pumpkin?
• Can host Indy give KC some anxious moments?
• Who will win "The HarBowl" on MNF?

Looking at the AFC standings, it seems like a foregone conclusion that two of three wildcard spots are already spoke for (Chargers, Ravens/Steelers).

 

That said, it makes it interesting looking at who our potential opponent could be if we don’t get the 1 seed. Initially I was all over the Chargers against Baltimore but I’m starting to lean towards hoping the Ravens win the north and putting the Steelers into the mix of potential WC opponents. 
 

The two seed likely avoids all of this, but you never know. I’ll be curious to keep tabs on the Denver and LV matchup as the Broncos are holding onto the 7 seed and a win really helps them improve the likelyhood they can get to the post season (win=72% likely).

There's a rumor that DJ wants to sign with a winning organization which is somewhat understandable... get exposure to good coaching/good system.

 

On the other hand, his best opportunities based on playing time arguably reside with a losing program.

 

Ironically/comically the Jets are a fit. Losing programs such as Cleveland, Tennessee, Jacksonville, and Las Vegas all make some sense.

They got the Colts and Chiefs mismatched for this one?

He's right to go to a winning organisation, IMO. Or at least one with a HC who is good at managing the offense. Look at Mayfield - went to Carolina which was a disaster. It was only learning under McVay which helped him develop and earn another chance with Tampa, which he has seized. Same with Darnold with Shanahan. The Niners seem the best bet for him at the moment.

Fairly ugly week of matchups

I could see the Cowboys as a possible move as well. He's better than Cooper Rush and would likely see the field quickly. Tons of exposure even if the Cowboys are bad...and he is familiar with the rest of the division.

 

Cowboys/Giants play on Thursday, so I doubt if signed he would be on the field that quickly.

I think Baltimore will ultimately win the AFCN and with Houston’s schedule they’ll end up with the three seed. AFCN is going to continue to beat up each other.

I said it after the Eagles blasted the Bengals in Cincinnati in October, they’re the only ones in the NFC with the corners that can stand up to Detroit.

Rough year for niners.  If the division wasn’t so bad, I’d say they’re toast.  I don’t even know who their backup is…I would also add, this is why in the NFL, strength of schedule is impossible to predict…
