#Eagles QB Carson Wentz, dealing with a back issue, is not expected to play this week, sources say. Depending on the result, given the time of year, Wentz may not play again in 2018. The team is still gathering info on his health.— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) December 12, 2018

just wanna say going for 2 at the end like that is awesome
― frogbs, Friday, 14 December 2018 05:23 (five years ago) link
yeah that was great stuff. and how easy the play ended up being was hilarious
― тпсбlack (Spottie), Friday, 14 December 2018 05:32 (five years ago) link
theoretically you should probably go for 2 every time vs. the Chiefs

I'm interested in the Colts as they have been completely off the national TV radar, I have not seen them play this season. Cowboys looked pretty good the last couple of games I have seen, so Indy swatting them down in a shutout like that has me curious. From what I am reading, the Colts have a young defense and o-line that is starting to really figure it out and are as balanced right now as they have ever been.

amazing that the AFC South has 3 teams with winning records, none of which is the one that nearly made the Super Bowl last year

I really reaaly wish the Browns could’ve pulled that one out. Oh well. Great season. The future is bright.

CINCINNATI -- The Bengals have parted ways with longtime coach Marvin Lewis, who endorsed his friend Hue Jackson as his replacement.Lewis had one season remaining on a contract extension he signed last year. In a statement, the team said the decision was mutual.

considering how fucking cheap the bengals are, it's surprising they canned him with a year left on his contract
i also endorse hue jackson as his replacement just for the baker mayfield lolz

Marvin Lewis is a decent coach, the guy seems to have a knack for finding and developing talent. AFC South is pretty brutal conference and having to get over both the Steelers and Ravens both is a bigger task than most divisions in football. They won the division a couple of times going like 10-6 with the Ravens and Steelers going like 9-7... A couple of the playoff losses were totally fluky as they lost Palmer in the first series of the first playoff game and his knee was always a bit bonky after that play. His best team lost Dalton down the stretch run and had that insane loss to the Steelers with a backup QB a couple years ago.

Yeah there’s definitely an element of luck to that, much as there was when McCarthy was like 0-6 in OT games (several of which were in the playoffs). He’s probably the best guy on the market, right?

marvin lewis may have been as successful as was possible for a team controlled by mike brown, but what talent did he find or develop? not sure i'm willing to credit him with turning the undrafted burfict into a . . . notable player
the ravens and steelers were ~good~ during lewis' tenure, but neither was by any means the patriots, and god knows the browns were the browns
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 1 January 2019 01:35 (five years ago) link
Steelers made the playoffs 10 times since 05, went to 3 Superbowls and won 2.Ravens made the playoffs 9 times since '05 and won a Superbowl.
That's pretty good. Outside the Pats, I think the only division that has won 3 SB would be NFC East (Giants x2, Eagles last year)... NFC South has had Saints, Falcons and Panthers be in the playoffs with some regularity.
Bengals have had a good run of drafting on defense. Cincy was able to keep a good part of that core together for a while too. Some of these guys have had really long careers...

Lewis isn't quite Marty Schottenheimer, but he has had middling success.
― earlnash, Tuesday, 1 January 2019 03:20 (five years ago) link
well, the steelers made the playoffs that many times because they went 26-8 against his bengals
anyway, worlds will collide when the steelers hire him to run their defense next year

what a good team name tho

Interesting stat: the six highest-paid QBs - Rodgers, Ryan, Cousins, Stafford, Garrappolo (lol), and Carr (double lol) - all missed the playoffs this year. Goff, Trubisky, Mahomes, Dak, Foles, and Lamar Jackson are all in. Maybe the "QB is everything" era is over.
