Here's how I have it playing out:





Biggest surprises: Dallas wins out. Carolina wins out. Detroit loses @ Chicago.

^^ This dude said San Diego would be like 12-4/13-3 earlier in the year and pretty much said I was crazy for calling them a borderline playoff team. Then he goes ahead and counts them out of the playoffs now.

They're 8-5 bruh.

The Ravens will more than likely go 11-5. They have the Jaguars, the Texans and the Browns left on the schedule.

You're saying that like the Texans & the Browns are some scrub teams

Them niggas hungry.

Yeah, both teams have been inconsistent as fuck. Hoyer is probably going to lose his job for the final game the way he's been playing lately, so Johnny Manziel doesnt put fear in me whatsoever.

You play Houston on the road & Flacco vs. JJ Watt is gonna be a nightmare matchup. & the Ravens barely beat the Browns the last time they played, so I don't expect them to just lie down. Baltimore is losing at least 1 of the 3 remaining games.

They'll lose 1.

Although in my playoff scenario that I did above, if the Texans and Browns beat the Ravens, the Texans get in and the Ravens don't make it.

Dead is acting like the Ravens are the Patriots & the Broncos & will just march into places & whoop anyone at will

It's more or less noticing how the other teams have been doing this year. You're pretending like Ryan Fitzpatrick should be putting fear into the hearts of his opponents, and i dont know if you know this or not....but the Texans have beaten the Ravens once. In Houston 2 years ago. So playing in Texas doesnt matter much, especially since a ton of Ravens fans have been considerably louder the last road games (New Orleans and Miami).

Man, you're pretending like the Ravens are some juggernaut team in the AFC & have been blowing teams out left & right.

The Ravens are quite capable of beating any team in the league but they are quite capable of losing to any team in the league; the Browns & Texans are quite capable of beating the Ravens.

So the fact they lost the last time they played in Houston (in a blowout) doesn't mean anything?


I mean, I agree with you... I could very easily see them winning out. But 2-1 is much more likely to happen than 3-0. Texans & Browns are both capable teams and the Ravens aren't anything special right now. They're not games to just look over as definite wins.

I have this shit playing out like this.

Would be some pretty interesting first round matchups.

i like the Ravens new-found running game but let's be real. Patriots and Broncos would whoop their ass in the playoffs

I bet Saints end up making the playoffs

Mexi is the only one that has the Lions in

The Lions pretty much have to lose to the Bears to not get in. I tried the playoff machine on ESPN like Mexi did... it's actually unlikely that the Lions don't get in, I'm just feeling a loss to the Bears tbh so I'll stick with mine. They get in on most scenarios, though, and they're by far the safest pick to grab a wildcard spot out of all those wildcard teams.

And that's with the Cowboys winning out for that matter. The Cowboys still have really tough teams on their schedule though... Colts & Eagles.

I got Dallas winning @ Philly and Dallas losing to the Colts.

I also can't see the Lions not making it tbh.

I think we could still get the #1 seed
