So far Savage is simply making the throws that any starting QB in the league SHOULD make...He still takes shots towards DHOP without throwing picks...

Interesting press conference upcoming...

Someone should ask him why the hell BO has been playing when Savage is clearly better. Someone should also ask him why, if he's such a quarterback guru, why is he always benching the hand-picked starting quarterback?

Despite the key injuries the defense is damn near championship quality. Get the key guys back and have a decent draft (I know, I know) and the defense could be absolutely outrageous.

Now we'll have to see if the organization is competent enough to stick with Savage. I'll believe it when it happens.

Jags fire Bradley

-----------------------------------------

Savage had 3 completions for 20+ yards today. It's been so long since that has occurred...

-----------------------------------------

For a while, it looked like both the Texans and Titans would lose and Indy would win. All 3 ended up winning...

-----------------------------------------

Beginning to look like there may be a showdown with the Titans in the final game. FiveThirtyEight has added a choose-your-own-scenario. Click on the boxes to see odds change.. Looks like the Texans could lose to Cincy but it would then be mandatory to beat the Titans if they want to win the division. Titans will most likely beat the Jags which still makes for the showdown game and if the Titans win out, there in..... I'm smelling a flex game here.....

It's not even like Savage was really that good today. He was about average, if even that... and yet so much better than anything we've seen from Osweiler over the last two months or more.

The cellophane has been torn on Savage... time to leave him in for the remainder of the season. Nice to see the quicker release. And the OL somehow looks better with Savage back there too, imagine that.

Akeem Hunt is getting opportunities, which I like. But he has to be more careful with the ball.

Clowney is really fulfilling his potential this season. A shame he doesn't have J.J. Watt on the line with him. This is a terrific defense without Watt... I feel cheated out of seeing just how good it might have been had we had Watt, Johnson, Simon, etc healthy this season.

Credit to the Titans for pulling off the win over the Chiefs on the road in December. That's legit.

Savage has always been a good relief pitcher. I'd probably start Ozzy next Saturday but with a short leash. The pressure to win to keep his job may be the best thing for him.

I honestly thought Tennessee would lose last week or this week. Now, even though the Texans have the tiebreaker, it could boil down to New Years Day in Hicksville having to stop that 1-2 punch of Murray and Henry. Winner gets the title. Believe it or not, the runner-up in the AFC South has an outside chance at still being the #6 seed if it all breaks right.

8-6 and seemingly all with mirrors. They could be 9-7 and miss the playoffs altogether.

heck, i thought Savage did pretty good, especially considering he hasnt played a real game in 2 years. i think Savage should definitely start next two games.

pretty good coming back down by 13 to win.

and, our FG kicker has won the last two games. way to go.
