Tegis Posted November 14, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 14, 2013 So, who picks up Ed Reed? I'd gladly have him on our roster if Ihenacho is out for an extended period. Signed for the Jets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkr Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Some early playoff picture scenarios that could play out over the next few weeks... * Seahawks clinch the NFC West by winning their next three games (Vikings, Saints, @ 49ers), as that would make the Seahawks 12-4 at worst with a season sweep of the 49ers. The 49ers could still finish 12-4, but the season sweep would ensure that the Seahawks win a tiebreaker over the 49ers. The Cardinals could finish 12-4, but that would require a win over the 49ers in Week 17, so there's no chance of a 3-way tie at 12-4. Any scenario where the Seahawks tie the Cardinals at 12-4 would resolve in the Seahawks favor on division record (4-2 vs. 3-3). * Chiefs clinch the AFC West by winning their next three games (@ Broncos, Chargers, Broncos) combined with a Patriots win over the Broncos. The Chiefs would be 12-4 at worst with a season sweep of the Broncos. The Broncos would be 12-4 at best. Hopefully the Seahawks win the next three and lose their next game then!

leviramsey Posted November 15, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 15, 2013 At high school, where punters and kickers are uniformly terrible, to never punt is a good decision.In the NFL, most coaches (Belichick and Payton are about the only exceptions) punt far too often.

In the NFL, most coaches (Belichick and Payton are about the only exceptions) punt far too often. As a Broncos fan I wouldn't say Belichick and Payton are the only exceptions. Don't get me wrong, I love that Fox goes for it on 4th down but it does give one a squeaky bum and it does add him to your list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Some coaches are too brave though. Pats went for a 4th and long in the Super Bowl in 2007 when they could've kicked a 3 instead. They ended up losing by 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtsimonw Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I don't think it takes hindsight to work out whether to kick a 48 yard FG or go for it on 4th and 13 (down 7-3 midway through the 3rd, for perspective). All it takes is a brain, I can only assume BB forgot his that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leviramsey Posted November 16, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 16, 2013 Football as FootballThe Colts, Rams, Ravens, Giants, Lions (though that may just be a liking for a lion rampant on a blue shield...), Bears, Titans, Patriots, Panthers, Falcons, Chiefs, Cardinals, Bills, Seahawks, and Broncos are all really good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 One for Levi I think... I noticed last season RG3 had 3 4th quarter comebacks and only 2 game winning drives. I thought a 4QC was always a GWD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted November 19, 2013 Author Moderator Share Posted November 19, 2013 Not necessarily. You can complete your 4QC before the game is over and the final drive can be done by the opposition who might even score from it. So a GWD is always a 4QC but a 4QC does not always need a final GWD.

That can't be right, Eli has had 24 4QCs but 28 GWDs. It's confusing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
