2017 Week 15 NFL Thread

[dbair1967]

Stupid Bucs had their chances last night. Fumbled inside Falcons 10 after long drive. Falcons fumbled into the endzone and Bucs couldn't recover. Freeman had another fumble Bucs couldn't recover, and Bucs missed a FG

Falcons have to be the luckiest team in the league. They could easily be 4-10 or 5-9 today.

So now that the Falcons won does that drop our 4% chance of making the playoffs down to 3%?

Falcons play at Saints and then home vs Carolina. Carolina plays at home vs Tampa and then at Falcons. Saints play at home vs Falcons and then at home vs New Orleans. We need Atlanta, Carolina or New Orleans to lose twice.

Lions play at Cinci (likely the last home game for Marvin Lewis) and then at home vs Green Bay (which apparently signed another QB to the roster yesterday and may be shutting Rodgers down). We need Detroit to lose once.

Atlanta losing twice is a real possibility, but Detroit has it really easy.

Jason Garrett says "they are not sure" how they are they are going to use Zeke Elliott this week.

Genius stuff.

FYP

Week 16 dream scenario:

Tampa over Carolina
New Orleans over Atlanta
Bengals over Lions
Dallas over Seattle

Then Dallas has their destiny in their hands and will make the playoffs by beating the Eagles regardless of what any other teams do on week 17

Garrett will end up using him as a DE

 

[theoneandonly]

Kind of surprised not much mention over the Chris Jones fake punt and pick up first down. He called it himself at the LOS was reported. Basically he is smarter and gutsier than the current staff, and is the only thing standing between them and having Chaz Green protecting Cooper Rushes blind side in a meaningless game versus Seattle on Sunday.

I think I'd line him up in the backfield and see what he can do. What have we got to lose?

Who called the fake?

Does he think he's trying to outsmart anyone?

 

[Doomsday]

Who called the fake?

In Dallas that's delegated, the punter is free to choose when to take off with the ball. And preferably without telling anyone prior. Which is good, really. Every team I was ever on had it that way.

I bet they are thinking of having him replace Heath as the emergency kicker.

It would be completely understandable if he just didn’t want to tell the media his game plan with Zeke but I honestly think he doesn’t know. We are sitting here on Tuesday and this dipshit doesn’t have an idea how he wants to use Zeke.

Don’t say that too loud. Jerry might sign him to a coaching contract and make him the new coach in waiting. In the meantime he can be the new OC.

fooled me until I saw your clever post

 

[English Cowboy]

Tyron Smith, Travis Frederick, Zack Martin and Demarcus Lawrence selected for the Pro Bowl. All but Frederick as starters.

What other way would you use Zeke? The best RB in the league... what other way would you use him?

In Garrett’s infinite wisdom he’s going to rest him for the playoffs!!!
