Justin Timberlake will headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show. Because his last Halftime Show ended so well.

I remember after the draft Peter King wrote a couple of articles on the Niners and how their draft went. It gave you a sense of optimism that they will turn it around. That team is a dumpster fire that not even a guy like Kirk Cousins can save. I say this from time to time but I have no earthly idea why Kyle took that job, why Hue took the Cleveland job. I understand the passion for wanting to be a head coach but these are "hired to be fired" type of jobs. They gave Kyle a 6 year deal, there's no way he lasts the entire contract.

T.Y Hilton calls out the OL for their horrendous play on Sunday
Jeff Saturday somehow tries to say Hilton shouldn't do with his own glass house and breaks down a long route where he didn't hustle after getting double teamed
How can you defend a OL who has been notoriously horrible for years and gave up 10 sacks on Sunday

Had the receivers gotten open quicker Brissett would not have held the ball so long, which led to at least half of those sacks (though Brissett should have started scrambling earlier too).

Don't get me wrong there is problems all around but that OL has been suspect for years and someone needs to speak on it, not Hilton per se but someone

The only person who must address it is Ballard. I suspect it is going to be his focus in the offseason. They need more talent. Vujnovich should never be starting. Same for Clark. Now Mike Person, a guy cut from at least 3 teams in the past (including the Colts) is getting snaps at center due to injury. They were a weak squad made much worse due to many injuries.

After all the damage Ryan Grigson did to the Colts' offensive line so he could sign past-their-prime skill position players, it's going to take them awhile to rebuild from there. But it's no wonder that Luck isn't exactly rushing to get back on the field. The Colts have really done wrong by him.

He worked a lot of magic his first few seasons with keeping them competitive but eventually that was going to run out. Assuming they end up with a high draft pick they have a chance to finally address it

Unless you have guys on your team legitimately dogging it you don't call them out. You assume they're doing here best, you have one another back and go forward.

Eagles are the Top Team in the NFL, for however long that lasts, that is amazing
And I don't see it taking a dent next week since we're playing the Niners...

If you wanna know how f***ing dire the offenses have been this year, Carson Wentz has more Touchdowns these last three weeks (11), than 19 of the 32 NFL Teams have this whole season...

Quickly looking at the standings and by win/loss....the AFC east might be the best division in the NFL right now.
Yeah, we all saw that coming....

Even the Jets, who literally everyone wrote off as possibly going 0-16, are in the hunt for a wildcard spot. It's still early in the season but shit is wild.

Quickly looking at the standings and by win/loss....the AFC east might be the best division in the NFL right now. Yeah, we all saw that coming.... Perhaps it's my inherent lack of respect for the Jets, Dolphins, and Bills and the fact that the three teams have been a punching bag for the better part of the last 15 years, but I don't see any of the three making the playoffs. Buffalo has impressed, with wins over Denver, Tampa Bay, and on the road in Atlanta and their defense has held them in their two losses. Their remaining schedule isn't especially challenging, so I could see them going something like 6-4 or 5-5 and maybe coming down to week 17 in the Wild Card mix, but I don't think there's enough talent on the entire roster to get them to January. At 4-2, Miami might be the biggest mirage in the NFL. They're a -20 in point differential, they're probably going to be riding a career backup or a listless Jay Cutler for the rest of the season, and it's not like any of their four wins were all that impressive. Their four victories are by a combined 12 points. They'll finish .500 at best. Of the Jets' three wins, they came against winless Cleveland, a Dolphins team trying to milk talent out of Jay Cutler, and they needed overtime to beat the Jaguars at home. New York is also woefully undermanned and painfully untalented, so as charming of a story as they are - the team we expected to sink to maybe one or two wins sitting near .500 at the midway point - water will meet its level with them. Looking at their remaining schedule, I see one to three wins tops for the rest of the 2017 season.

Looking at their remaining schedule, I see one to three wins tops for the rest of the 2017 season. I disagree on none of the Miami wins being impressive. They were down double digits to ATL in ATL and they came back to win after shutting them down for the second half. Say what you will about the Falcons not being the same but they are still a dangerous team with talent that's not playing to par In regards to Jets (my boys), they are just gritting and grinding out wins. They beat a Jaguars them that decimated Baltimore the previous week and then beat Steelers the week after they lost to the Jets. However, the lack of talent on the offensive end will bite them sooner or later. McCown won't continue to play at this level but the defense is doing what everyone expected them to do. If they were a better team they wouldn't have lost 2 weeks in a row where they had 14 point leads against Pats and Dolphins

I think I'm going to follow in Seth Drakin's footsteps. I'm going to start breaking down the 32 teams in the league, week-by-week, in four categories:
- Legitimate Super Bowl contenders: This is pretty self-explanatory, these are the teams I believe have a serious shot at not only making it to Super Bowl LII, but winning it.
- Playoff threats: These are teams that are a notch below Super Bowl contenders, but could make a little noise in January and, if the ball bounces right, could find themselves in the Conference Championship or better.
- Lurking but not threatening: These are the teams that are hanging around and cannot yet be dismissed as potential playoff teams.
- Laughingstocks: These are the teams that should already be preparing for the off-season.
LEGITIMATE SUPER BOWL CONTENDERS Philadelphia Eagles Pittsburgh Steelers Kansas City Chiefs New England Patriots
PLAYOFF THREATS Minnesota Vikings Los Angeles Rams Buffalo Bills Seattle Seahawks Carolina Panthers Atlanta Falcons Denver Broncos Houston Texans Dallas Cowboys Los Angeles Chargers Oakland Raiders
LURKING BUT NOT THREATENING New Orleans Saints Miami Dolphins Green Bay Packers Tennessee Titans Jacksonville Jaguars Detroit Lions Washington Redskins Baltimore Ravens New York Jets Cincinnati Bengals Tampa Bay Buccaneers
LAUGHINGSTOCKS Chicago Bears Arizona Cardinals Indianapolis Colts New York Giants San Francisco 49ers Cleveland Browns
