    I'll be rooting for the Bears next week. I wouldn't bet on them, but I wouldn't rule out that they rise up and beat Tampa either.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    I'll feel very dirty....will need to shower right after the game....but I will cheer for the Bears.

    Fields gets hot, otherwise they have no chance.

    Both teams have the pass rushers to get after the QB, but it's still Brady on one side and a rookie QB on the other side.

    Chopping down a tree (with the right equipment) is easier than hanging on to a greased pig.

    Fields and Nagy are a couple of tools.

    Whoever is the #4 seed will have to likely play either Rams or Cardinals in wildcard round. Much rather have the #3 seed.

    Joe, your chart leads me to believe an 0-9 team made the playoffs. Nf east last year? Nfc south the tear of the 7-9 saints upset Seattle?

    This chart is not based on history, since there is no history of 17 game seasons. It's based on computer simulations.

    https://operations.nfl.com/gameday/a...-nfl-playoffs/

    To better understand the playoff implications of each win or loss, we used the nflSeedR package in the R Statistical Software to simulate 10,000 17-game NFL seasons based on historical estimates of team strength. Below, we visualize the probabilities for playoff, division, and top-seed hopefuls across the league.

    So I guess the pretty colors distracted me from the completely fucking obvious. Duh
