So, unless I'm missing something with the AFC, this is what we have...
Noon games
Ravens (8-7) @ CIN (10-5) - beat CIN in OT previously
Jets @ Miami (8-7) - Miami won huge prevoiusly
Colts @ Jaguars - slotted @ #4 seed, a win with a CIN loss, moves them to #3 seed
Late games
KC @ SD (8-7)
Chiefs gain nothing by winning and lose nothing with a loss, so they'll throw out a gimme win to SD this weekend. However, this will be the ultimate tease win for SD fans as the other 2 pieces that need to fall for their playoff puzzle to be complete won't happen.
Chargers need to win while having both the Ravens & Dolphins lose. I believe that CIN will win, thus keeping them in the #3 seed, IND in the #4 seed with SD out of the playoff picture.
I believe that Miami beats the Jets, locking in the #6 seed.
These two are playing for the #1 seed. Denver wins and they maintain the #1 seed. If Denver loses and NEP win, then NEP become the #1 seed.
Bills @ NEP
Broncos @ Raiders
Since they're playing for home field advantage and NEP also plays the late afternoon game ... the normal starters for Denver will play, and they will defeat Oakland. Manning will get his 280 yards (or whatever it is) to set the new yards mark in a season and Denver will get the 18 points to set the new scoring mark for a season. Neither of those records means much with the big picture, but they'll need to happen for them to win and maintain HFA as the #1 seed.
Anyone see the chips falling in line for SD to advance? Or for IND to overtake CIN for the #3 seed?
