Either the Lions win in a blowout or Dan Campbell makes a bad coaching decision to cost the Lions to lose is my prediction.

fine line it is

These teams both good and closely matched. I like Detroit as the more physical team but I think a turnover or special teams play will decide it

Watch them not being able to cover JJ18. It could honestly happen. Like a 14/222/3 game to take the 1 seed. Always seems Detroit leaves a lot of empty space in the defensive backfield.

This is pretty crazy… sounds like Tyreek wants out of Miami 🤣

There’s a bad joke here about him getting angry being at home for the playoffs.

Holy crap if Geno gets a win he clears 6 mil total in incentives for the day - not a bad day

 

Maybe it’s me, or maybe it’s also the astronomical salaries and incentives in the NFL, but I don’t recall EVERYBODY touting these unreal personal contract bonuses BEFORE AND DURING the Season finale’s weekend games!

 

it was as big a constant disclosure on Red Zone today, as a TD, Sack or in the Bills’ case, swatting a ball away at the 1 yard line from being a Touchback.

 

Don’t ever recall hearing about them. Must have been 2 dozen today and ALL the players appeared to be in on it! Especially, Baker & the Bucs who threw one more 6 yard Pass to Mike Evans, instead of kneeling it to ensure made $3M!!!

Maybe these Tyreek ones should go in the Diggs drama thread instead lol

Miami and Denver have nothing in common.  Last year the final week Miami had a mash unit on defense.  Their head coach is not in the same stratosphere as Sean Payton.  

 

Buffalo went and manhandled the dolphins last year in week 18.  They were running out of players on defense that night.  

 

This denver teams strength is their defense.

And yet their defense wasn’t good enough to beat any of these teams.

thats true but they have a rookie qb who has been getting better week after week.  

 

Records don't matter anymore.  Everyone is 0-0 in the tournament now.

I'm not watching the Denver KC game but I am wondering how Buffalos starting defense stacks up to KCs back ups because some people seem worried. I get it I worry regardless so I'm asking. 

 

It's not just the KC backups.  KC was running the most vanilla preseason defense possible.

 

The Bills, from what I could decode on the TV broadcast, were mixing it up a bit more more on D, I presume because they wanted to see how Buffalo Joe handled adjusting the play call for presnap changes, and how well Ulofoshio and Bishop and the other players knew their assignments after those adjustments

Precisely, they have a rookie QB who has never been to the playoffs. No rookie QB has ever reached a Super Bowl, only five have reached conference championships. That is since 1966. You think Bo Nix is going to come into Buffalo and beat the Bills?
