Who would bother offering that guy a job after what he did last year? Not that the Colts care now, they ended up with a better coach anyway.

Speaking of Pro Bowl snubs, Lane Johnson didn't make it this year. He was banged up for several games but hard to imagine there are better RTs out there. Two weeks ago he matched up all day against JJ Watt. For three hours JJ was in the witness protection program. It was a mismatch.
This Sunday it's Johnson vs Khalil Mack in a heavyweight showdown. This is the best one on one match-up of the weekend. A year ago on Christmas night they faced off and Johnson crushed Mack. There is a youtube video out there of every offensive snap of the game and Johnson put on a clinic. I think the Bears will win this game but this matchup will be fascinating for sure.

sad the Raiders have become so irrelevant. That wide swath of Patriots hate that includes KC and Denver should be silver and black

Agree. I was stunned i didn't see Oakland or Denver over Kansas and Missouri.

Looks like I'm watching the Fox games on the internet this weekend. Tribune owns the local KC Fox affiliate and they are fighting with Spectrum so it's off the air for now. Good thing the AFC isn''t on FOX or Chiefs fans would be losing their minds if this doesn't get resolved.
I love that Eagle logo flying over the heart of Texas. I had little doubt the reverse would be true in PA. Eagle fans have severe hatred for the Cowboys. 10x more than for the NYG and the redskins.

They own the CBS & FOX in Indy too.
If the Colts stay in control and win this game that's bad news for the Pats. I'm sure the one team they wanted to play were Bill O'Brien's Texans. Now they'll play the Ravens or Chargers. Far more difficult opponent imo. KC is in for a tough game any way u slice it. Colts OL is giving Luck all day to throw. Very impressive.
If I were the Chiefs I would be scared of the Colts.
Colts can pass block and their offense will shred the Chiefs D. It will come down to Mahomes matching.
Ravens defense will be tough on Patriots but I don’t see Jackson beating the Pats. It would be a low scoring game though.
This game has to scare the Chiefs and honestly tomorrow’s winner could host the AFC title game.

Hey, a Colts win would mean one more game check for Zaire.
No doubt the Colts are very impressive. But the one team that was the weak link in the AFC was the Texans and the Chiefs were not going to play them next week anyway. Baltimore already took them to the wire and the Chargers beat them outright - both games played in KC. Any way you slice it KC was going to have a tough opponent.
If Belichick could choose he would pick Lamar Jackson and Baltimore.
New England struggles offensively right now. Baltimore will be low scoring game. Patriots will play Patrick Chung as S safety spy and Baltimore will run the ball.
Which means the Pats offense won’t have to score 30 to win.
If you tell me Joe Flacco is QBing the Ravens I am scared as he would throw the ball.
Colts are a bad matchup for the Chiefs.
The Chargers beat the Chiefs but it was a fluke game and the Chiefs dominated the game.
Ravens D kept them in the Chiefs game but I think again it would take less points to win.
I really think the Colts have a good chance to get to the AFC TITLE game.
No way on earth the Pats would rather play the Ravens or Chargers instead of the Texans. That's a no-brainer.
LAC is 8-0 outside the LA city limits. Have beaten KC, Pitt and Seattle on the road. Probably three of the toughest road venues in all of football. Not sure what was fluky about LAC's win over KC. They held KC to 300 yards of total offense and won despite losing the turnover battle 2-0.
Tom Curran said the Pats preference was Baltimore, Houston, Los Angeles in that order.
Strictly because of the offenses
Who is Tom Curran?
Elliot led the league in rushing not even playing the last game and his team made the playoffs.
Did he send flowers to a married woman getting her killed like eskin?

For an individual honor...So? He got the ball more on rushes and was on a better team.
Howard Eskin is a complete @ssclown. The Texans suck, are poorly coached and not remotely in the league of Balt or LAC. This seems screamingly obvious to me.
Don't think kc can stop luck.
