Week 15 Recap

The playoff race in the AFC is ridiculous.

Thursday night the Colts beat the Jaguars to stay perfect. Peyton did his thing when it was necessary. I'm still amazed that Thursday's game was the Jags first sellout of the season. This is a team on the brink of making the playoffs with one of the more well known RBs in the game in MJD... On another note David Garrard played his ass off until the last drive of the game after he took a big hit. I don't understand how they would consider replacing this guy with Tim Tebow. If they want big stats Garrard isn't the guy but he gets it done with guys like Mike Sims-Walker. Maybe if their defense was better they would win more.

The Cowboys upset the Saints Saturday night. Very few people gave the Cowboys a shot. They Cowboys had a 24-3 lead in the second half. Then the Saints turned it on and almost came back late in the 4th quarter. Tony Romo played well, Miles Austin was ridiculous. Drew Brees made some horrible plays that the Saints couldn't recover from for the first time this season. It looks like the Cowboys have a chance to make the playoffs. Oh the Cowboys signed Suisham to replace Nick Folk who missed a chipshot that would have ended the Saints' chance at a comeback. Does Jerry Jones not realize Suisham missed a chipshot at home against the Saints that allowed the Saints to comeback and win that game?

The Vikings were blown out by the sorry ass Panthers. So Brett Favre didn't want to come out of the game after he had taken a lot of hits and wasn't getting it done. I'm in the camp that Favre is getting a ridiculous pass for this shit. Childress was wrong but this was a bullshit move. If McNabb had done this last year when Andy Reid yanked him against the Ravens he would have been killed. Yes I am saying part of the reason that Brett Favre is getting a pass is because he is White. But it's more than that Brett Favre gets passes on a lot of stuff because everyone views him as a "regular" guy who is "just like them." As much press as Favre gets you would think he was the shit.

Let's just get to the playoff picture....

NFC:
1. Saints
2. Vikings or Eagles
3. Vikings or Eagles
4. Cardinals (division winner)
5. Packers
6. Cowboys or Giants (Cowboys - @Skins, Eagles; Giants - Panthers, @Vikings) Giants need to win 1 more than the boys.

AFC Shitstorm:
1. Colts
2. Chargers
3. Patriots
4. Bengals

Ravens - 8-6 - @Steelers, @ Raiders
Broncos - 8-6- @Eagles, Chiefs

Steelers - 7-7 - Ravens, @Dolphins
Dolphins - 7-7 - Texans, Steelers
Jaguars - 7-7 - @Patriots, @Browns
Titans - 7-7 - Chargers, @Seahawks
Jets - 7-7 - @Colts, Bengals
Texans - 7-7 - @Dolphins, Patriots

I think the Ravens make it by beating the Steelers this week.

I don't think the Broncos will make the playoffs, but if they upset the Eagles they are probably in. Has a team that started 6-0 ever not made the playoffs?

If the first two predictions are correct the Steelers can't make it. I don't think the Dolphins will make it or the Jets because Sanchez throws too many INTs.

This could come down to the Jaguars and Titans. I think if the Titans beat the Chargers they will make the playoffs. Hmm a 6-0 miss the playoffs and an 0-6 team make the playoffs...
