What a boneheaded move by Dan Campbell yesterday..... onside kick with 12 minutes left and his team having just gained some momentum.. That was just an all-around horrible decision. The Bills took like 10 seconds to turn that in to points lol.

Can someone please explain why there seems to be a difference between VegasInsider and TeamRankings regarding the ATS stats? In addition, on VegasInsider's page, if you scroll down below the rankings, it says "Along with showing the three categories above, our NFL ATS Standings offer up a breakdown of Home and Away results as well." Where is it? I cannot seem to find it.

Thank you.

WAGs and speculation, with three weeks to go in the regular season:

AFC - unless someone finds a working voodoo doll and uses it to curse the Chiefs, they'll be back in the SB.

NFC - if the Lions can overcome their injuries, they're the favorite. But don't discount the Eagles, who will have Saquon run over you (wonder how the NY fans like that?), a tried-and-true way to succeed in the playoffs. I don't yet trust Darnold enough to say he won't relapse into his old bad habits, under the spotlight of the playoffs, and any big contact he's gonna get after this season is going to be a risk. Can he carry a team if needed? I doubt it.

Strange things can happen in the playoffs, but there's no substitute for the fundamentals -- strong line play (another SF weakness that has left them where they are this season).

I feel like the Lions find a way to self destruct...

Kirk Cousins benched....Michael Penix Jr to start.

Atlanta tries to salvage their hopes for this season
He had a pretty decent day. And they won in those glorious red helmets!

What was the reasoning behind not playing him to begin with? Just because he was a rookie?

Falcons stand in as the 9th seed in the bubble. 🫧 Will they be able to secure wild card contention if they move up to the seventh seed and knock commanders off?

Also anyone has Apple Watch ⌚️ bands featuring your favorite teams? I got a Rams 🐏 and niners one. PURDY is outta playoff contention and eliminated by Dolphins 🐬, so remaining NFC West teams in playoff hunt are Rams and Seahawks (8th overall). The Cards are out of contention for this season’s playoffs as well.

When Penix was drafted there was a great deal of dismissal and negativity since Atlanta had just "fixed" their quarterback problem by giving free agent Cousins a huge multi year contract.....the response was; why waste their first round draft pick on Penix when they had other pressing needs? The general assumption was Penix would have to watch from the sidelines for a number of years.

But alas for Cousins and Atlanta, things haven't worked out......and Penix is getting a shot much sooner than expected.

Atlanta won today I see.

With only a few more games left, this is where we currently stand.
 
They had 100 million🤑🤑🤑 and 1 reasons. One reason would be so that Penix could acclimate to the NFL.

He was similar to Bo Nix in that he had a huge amount of starts in college (48). So he really just needed to get acclimated to the speed of the game.
