AFC Wildcard Playoff Race

Bengals (7-6) - Browns, Steelers, Texans
Predicted Finish: 9-7

Browns (7-5) - Broncos, Bengals, Ravens, Dolphins
Predicted Finish: 9-7

Texans (7-6) - Jets, Pats, Bengals
Predicted Finish: 10-6

Raiders (8-5) - Chiefs, Bills, Broncos
Predicted Finish: 10-6

Colts (8-5) - Packers, Jaguars, Bears

10 wins pretty much locks up a playoff spot in the AFC, 9 wins will probably require help.

Interesting how close it is. Also, you should check Bob's remaining schedule. I'm 1 game behind him for the NFC North. I just don't want to have a winning record and miss the playoffs. Remember when the Patriots were like 11-5 and missed the playoffs a few years back?

If I get to 10 wins and am in before the Bob game, I'm sitting everyone

Bears (8-5) - Rams, Niners, Colts
Predicted finish: 9-7

NFC North is best

If beating Bob in Week 17 somehow will keep him out of the playoffs, I'd consider playing it for real

Let Crow knows he can play sub/CPU; I left already so you don't need to boot me. I'm not going to be able to get in it tonight due to work. The advance is tomorrow morning but that's a long shot in its own.

To be honest I'm not sure if I'm going to rejoin. I've played one game in the past four (Madden) weeks, and it's pretty difficult to hold the same interest in the game when that happens. Not feeling it anymore.

Though still not as bad as the PS3, 360 system updates have gotten significantly longer than before. :\

Yeah, I've been noticing that too. By the way Nightz are the Chargers the slowest team in this franchise? Maybe I'm too use to playing as the Raiders but its been pretty hard to adjust to all of these slow players

Most likely this. The Chargers' speed is average but it's like the turtle and the hare when you compare the Chargers roster to the Raiders roster.

Edit: That's one of the reasons I'm hoping that the Chargers take Tyvon Branch from the Raiders. I'd love to have him on my defense next season.

Branch better stay... I don't really care about Routt leaving, he was more trouble than what he was worth

Better hope it is rainy and windy when we play FMT. It is your only chance to beat me. I'm locked in on my passing, and the only thing that stops my offense now are drops and bad weather sending the ball awry!

I will miss Tyvon next year. That trade was the best trade in the league in terms of pure balance.

Raider's D just flies to the ball, it was pretty crazy playing as them...
Click to expand...

It was pretty amazing watching Rors play D with his team. I saw this way too many times:

1) My WR on a go route clearly beats his CB off the line and has a few steps on him, I throw a bomb, Rors takes control of the CB that got beat, takes some super crazy route to the ball, ends up ahead of my receiver and makes the pick.

2) He's controlling the FS, falls for the play action and is out of position, I throw the pass, he recovers easily and beats my man to the ball for the pick.

GG Crow. Hillis is so good, that was fun until Champ Bailey made that ridiculous interception and things started getting out of hand. Don't know if I am just bat at 4-3 or it's because of Striker's safety woes. So many dropped picks too, and then the end of the first half.... let's just not talk about that.

Lofa Tatupu out for 7 weeks with a broken collarbone on a user tackle... my bad.

Any1 have a Ferny signal?

gg. We both had plenty of dropped picks. My dline was in shambles after I lost dumervil so Hillis and your oline had their way with my dline. Thankfully Tebow saved me by making some big throws.

What are "Things Bob has also said about playing Bluemax, eznark, McNeily and AT"?

LOL

Are the other games getting done tonight? If it is advancing in the morning again, there's really no point to delay the advance, you know no one is playing before 1 EST.

Is that an hour difference from me or two?

I'm going out for a few drinks tonight at the moment. If anything changes I'll let you know. I usually leave my messenger up, so if I get home early I'll give you a shout on there.

Fuck the Eagles have 9 wins and I almost beat him? Packers on the up and up!!

That sums up most of my losses for the season. The two that stick out are the FMT and Luke game. Both of them I could have won or tied in the crunch and just choked. I need to play Bluemax again even for a skrim, that game was terrible on all ends.
