Unlike CC4L, I wouldn't like to go anywhere near Aaron Rodgers' ring.

If it couldn’t be Seattle then s return to the 80’s with the Bears or even somebody a bit different like Miami just not the Pats again
If the Packers ever make it back there with Rodgers I think we'd have to close the thread.
Apart from that Chargers v Rams would probably be my least favourite at the moment. Wasps vs MK Dons

Wouldn't like to see the Packers or Bears get there - purely a divisional thing. Not a Cowboys fan either.
Think Carroll is a great coach even though he's a rough character.
Would like to see Andy Reid get a ring as head coach - so close so many times and an innovative coach.

Would love to see a Mahommes v Wilson SB.
Can't see the ravens not making it now though, homefield advantage throughout the post season and strong in all areas. Don't think the Patriots can keep up with their scoring this year unless they play out of their skins.
NFC a bit more open but if Seattle can win out they'll have homefield advantage throughout, final game of the season could be a playoff for top seed SF@Sea

Chargers need to sort something out, they have no support in LA at all.
I don't think their current stadium situation helps, once Kroenkeworld is open you'll get a better idea of whether they can make it work. With the population of LA they should be able to pick up enough support to survive on a Jets-level support in NY. As always, people will go and watch a winning team especially if its in a swanky new stadium, failing that away support will fill it for them a lot of the time.

season tickets for next year slow around 26000 for a 75000 stadium. Some seats a 10th of the prices for Rams games.
But apparently they've got an incredible deal off the Rams that means they aren't going to that reliant of ticket sales.
A lot comes down to the Raiders fanbase and how long they are prepared to trek to Las Vegas. Has to be a fall off and Chargers should pick up some of the slack
Again one of the reasons Rams have gone all out (sacrificed the next few drafts) to try and get some immediate success to boost season ticket sales for the new stadium.
BTW the new stadium does look incredible. (No wonder Arsenal can't afford players)
Jets tend to get the same attendances as the Giants around 75000.
I think their actual attendances are calculated by the same fella that plucks wasps numbers out of the air, 78k there yesterday reportedly but rows of empty seats. Jets are seen as the cheap option for tourists to NEw York who just want to go to the stadium and a game, Id expect the Chargers will pick up this market in LA as tourists will be outpriced for Rams games.

green bay 10-3 woop woop!
redskins showed alot of heart. at 14-0 i was expecting 30 plus points, but it got a bit close towards end
happy with gb defence again, but AR wasnt his best
still a good win. need to win out now to get a rest in playoffs and homefield advantage. still do not think we are favourites to do that as vikings and bears left yet and packers have lost a few games to good teams recently so its still a test to over come
still looks like playoffs are pretty much secured now. great first season for le fleaur regardless
just need to pray no injuries at this time of year

Strong rumours linking Urb Meyer with the Redskins after he was at Fedex with Snyder yesterday. Recruited and coached Haskins (and Terry) through his only college season. Also coached Alex Smith to number 1 draft pick whilst at Utah.
May be seen as something of a radical choice but right now I'd go for it, if it all clicks it could be beautiful, I'm sure he'd have the support of the locker room from day 1 with the relationships mentioned above.
Obvious questions over his health and can he make the transition from college to NFL ball, but if he feels ready to go I don't think there's a more perfect fit for him in the NFL.
Id much rather go down 3-13 whilst trying to make a change like this over going down 3-13 with a whimper

Haskins had a very good game yesterday, looked like an NFL QB finally, I'm liking seeing his progression week to week and the team are about where I'd want now, playing well but not winning games. Lose against NY and we get Young.
I don't think you could ask for a better option than Meyer at the moment with the personnel, I'd have liked Tomlin but he looks more secure at the Steelers. Hopefully Allen is moved on too and a proper GM put in place with Dan avoiding meddling.
McLaurin is great, got his jersey after about week 3.

Strongly linked with Dallas but don't see him and Jones getting on well.
Health issues key but also he's a difficult character and is not going to be able to push around pros like he did college players. Starts well and it'll be roses but things don't go right and the toys will be out the pram very quickly. fans would need a bit of patience as he develops the youngsters.
Only going to the NFL because no college program is going too touch him.
Strong offensively-minded coach. Favours the spread offense.
Problem at the Skins still remains the ownership & senior management.

No atm would still favour Ravens from AFC.
49ers look a real threat from NFC. Winning hard games and whilst having injury problems.

Philly win please, Dallas will then go all out to beat the Skins next week and Chase Young is in burgundy and gold.

Good luck. Cowboys were appalling yesterday.
But not as bad as the Browns. All that talent wasting. They need a coach that's going to grab hold of Mayfield and shake him up. Still plays like he's at Oklahoma.
One of the teams of the year - the phins. Looked nailed for 0-16 the way management were dumping players. Seriously was it worth offloading Drake for a 6th round pick???? Players winning in spite of ownership.
Chiefs looking a serious threat in AFC now defence is working. Already got regular season wins over Pats and Ravens.

Had to laugh. Saw some pundits questioning Young as his numbers were down at end of season. Big 10 championship game vs. Wisconsin he was being triple teamed!!!
We'll see how he goes against Trevor Lawrence this weekend in the "semis"

Dallas turning up should be enough to beat Washington - 3&12. Fingers crossed for Eagles to win the East at the Giants next week

what a great performance from defence and a BIG win! vikings only pts came from mistakes from the O line
Rodgers still not ticking yet i guess 23pts is a good sign in that case
if beat lions last game think 2nd seed is confirmed. be great to have that break!

Defence was good again.
Vikings same problem all year (and last year to a point) take away Cook and Mattison and offense doesn't function.
Good still see Packers again in the playoffs.

literally been outstanding last 8 or 9 GWs. was 2nd ranked QB for that period.
take away the running game (no Cook or Mattison) and that takes away the pass option. Longer he holds the ball, more chance of an average O line letting people through.
Still plays himself into trouble when he should just throw the ball away. Brady this season throws the ball away when there's nothing and that's behind a good O line. Rodgers the same - this season and last.
