You should place a bet thenThe PHI odds seem, well, odd. If they played nine times, Philly would win only three? I'm not at all sure that I agree.

Until the QB situation is cleared up, the odds seem ok to me. Nate Sudfeld ain’t gettin’ it done in Chicago.The PHI odds seem, well, odd. If they played nine times, Philly would win only three? I'm not at all sure that I agree.
Ah - I somehow blipped past the Foles injuryUntil the QB situation is cleared up, the odds seem ok to me. Nate Sudfeld ain’t gettin’ it done in Chicago.
it's been awhile since a low seed made a serious run (I guess Baltimore 2012.... but I'm talking about a WC seed going all the way here). this would be the year for that for sure as any of the WC teams are capableI can’t see Indy winning 3 straight road games but it wouldn’t be the craziest thing.

Hmm?
CorrectedYou have to admit, it was one unexpected run
Also the Ravens won in 2012... ugh.Options:
Edit: New Jersey team confusion corrected per comments below
- #5 SF lose the NFCCG in 2013
- #4 BAL lose the SB in 2012
- #4 NYG win SB in 2011...ugh
- #6 GB win SB in 2010
- #6 NY
GJ lose AFCCG in 2010...ugh
Didn't BAL win the superbowl in 2012 too? Listed as them losing on option 2.
Corrected, thanks!Also the Ravens won in 2012... ugh.
As for crazy low seeded scenarios, for me nothing tops the 2008 NFCCG, where the #6 seeded 9-6-1 Eagles visited the #4 seeded 9-7 Cardinals. Much as I like the occasional upset, it was odd to watch two 9-win teams vying for a trip to the Super Bowl.
Agreed but winning the game away in the AFCCG would be the third for Reich.I can’t see Indy winning 3 straight road games but it wouldn’t be the craziest thing.
At first glance I thought you were being awfully harsh in your characterization of the Indy regime.Agreed but winning the game away in the AFCCG would be the third for Reich.
Poland, Czechoslovakia sure but Russia is tough at home.Agreed but winning the game away in the AFCCG would be the third for Reich.

You're misremembering that Denver squad defensively. Von Miller got hurt and missed half the season and that was pre-Talib (he was on the Pats) so that was a below-average unit (finished 22nd in points, 19th in yards). The exceptional Denver D was only really a two-year phenomenon: 2015 and 2016.That 2013 offense not very good at all with Gronk dead, and Denver was a juggernaut on both sides of the ball. It would have probably been considered a top 5 team ever had Manning et al not choked and gotten stopped by an all-time D in the Superbowl. New England overperformed in 2013. Kenbrell Thompkins, Aaron Dobson, Josh Boyce, Austin Collie, and Matthew Slater were playing WR, for Chrissakes.
I wouldn’t call the Pats the favorites in the AFC this year (KC is), but they have a hell of a lot better chance than that 2013 squad imo, especially in a potential SB. Seattle would have destroyed New England in 2013.
I would. The Eagles' point differential is only +19 (367-348), and that's with two games against the QB-less Redskins. Only three of their wins were by more than a TD (those two plus one against the Giants). Yes, they had the one great win against the Rams, but they were swept by Dallas and got slaughtered by the SaintsThe PHI odds seem, well, odd. If they played nine times, Philly would win only three? I'm not at all sure that I agree.
Yes I was going to say the same. Plus Blount and Ridley combined for more than 1,500 yards and 14 TDs.You're misremembering that Denver squad defensively. Von Miller got hurt and missed half the season and that was pre-Talib (he was on the Pats) so that was a below-average unit (finished 22nd in points, 19th in yards).

You're not wrong about the Pats but they were healthier at the end of the year than at the beginning. Amendola and Vereen both got hurt Week 1 (and Gronk was already hurt) so they were running out Bolden, Dobson / Thompkins, and Hoomanwanui for a few weeks. Gronk got hurt again later but 'Dola and Vereen were back so the O was a lot better late in the season. They averaged 19 points per game the first five weeks but over 30 points a game from Week 6 on.
Not even close. Sharpen it up.I'd love to know your point.
Is this your super special way of saying, "any given Sunday?"
If so...bravo. Brilliant. Really well done. Seriously.

That was an amazing run. All the better for being in threes.It's all about the banners
