NFL Playoffs 2015 season - the other teams

[barrett]

And it's definitely not playoff news, but the Titans decided to keep Mularkey. I guess his 2-7 finish coupled with his 18-37 career record was just too hard for Tennessee to pass up?

We really do have the 3 worst run franchises in football in our division. If we stumble into a competent QB we might go on a 10 year playoff streak without ever getting past the divisional round.

Unfortunately, fans of the other 3 AFCS teams probably include us in that list.

Indy might because they've been lucky enough to get the first pick in the right 2 drafts. There is no way Tennessee or Jax look at us like that. We are not the Patriots, but we've won 3 of 5 division titles while those train wreck franchises still have whether to fire their coach as their most important January decision.

Early lines on Championship weekend:

New England by 3 @ Denver

Carolina by 3 @ home vs. Arizona

I think NE has a shot to win it or at least make it a competitive Super Bowl against the NFC. But IMO, DEN will get crushed by either of those teams.

I think Denver's defense makes them a break away from beating anyone. Wade is an All-Timer as a DC. It would be hilarious to watch him win Gary Kubiak a super bowl.

That said, New England owned Wade his whole time here.

I was on Denver -6.5 and -7 depending on the contest/wager. After the game started, it all came back to me how Kubes kinda puckers up and gets conservative during big games - running the ball, FG's instead of TD's, etc.... Somehow, they got the lead up to 10 with just a couple of minutes left in the game but then Pittsburgh quickly went down the field and kicked a FG to put it back at 7. So, I ended up with a win on the -6.5 line and a push on the -7 line.

All the spreads this weekend were "sharp". A couple were decided by 1 point - only Carolina winning by 7 (spread was -2.5) actually covered "well". The books seem to be on top of their game this time of year..... See Alabama vs. Clemson with 10 million dollars changing sides in the last minute on the meaningless (to the Tide) Clemson TD.

And doesn't Chris Boswell (Pittsburgh kicker) look like Mr. Dependable right about now..... Put him on the list of "ones that got away"...
