After a decade of failed predictions, you may have finally got one correct. All it took was for the scheduling to align. If the AFC West had drawn the NFC North...both the Chargers/Donks would be fighting for their post-season lives.

There is a direct correlation between the AFCW having 3 potential play-off teams and the NFC South not having a single team with a winning record.

The NFC South in not only inpet but the Donks played two of the teams running out a MASH unit the week they played.

Couple that with Tua's injury and Bengals defensive collapse..you have a magical, uncontested path for the Donks.

All of these factors are leading to the Donks being over-hyped...we all saw what their defense is against the Chargers/Ravens/Browns. They are improved but feasting on bad/wounded teams to pad their stats.

They are an average team in a perfect storm scenario...next year is a regression to the mean. They beat the bad teams on their 3rd place schedule...but timing/injuries fell in their lap.

I hope your team sends the Jets kicker some flowers...those 2 misses in the final 2 minutes are why they might back-door into the post season.

7 teams now get in, rather than 6, which really helps fringe teams.

Yeah..it's a horrible arrangement based off greed.

7th seeds are 1-7 since it began...

Are we finally going to have an interesting rivalry again? I thought my son was going to be born and graduate before I cared again.
