I know so little about the NFL, I thought the division winners had a bye week. Why do they play dem4decades Jan 2022 #11

Kind of makes the Bills winning the Division a big nothing. I know it's a home game but those dem4decades Jan 2022 #14

I agree that it’s 9ers, all the way!

But if the worst happens, (which so often does with the post Eddie B 9ers), then I’m pulling for the Raiders. I think the stink of The Snake is still there, maybe even more pronounced since the move to LV. I like it, and I think Hunter Thompson would too. I hope Raiders Nation resuscitate the Black Hole and make it the envy of the NHL fans and an embarrassment to the city fathers.

is a gutsy call. You're betting against Brady and his diminished receiving corps.

As a Pat's Fan, I want the Pats, but my money - if I bet - would go with the Bills. Hope I am wrong.

Normally, I want to go with my feelings for the teams, but business is business:

1. Bengals
2. Patriots (hate the team/coach; but really admire the Coaching).
3. Chiefs

4. Eagles (keep hitting Brady, he doesn’t like pain)
5. Dallas
6. Rams

There are 4 divisions per conference,
one div winner gets a bye,
the other 3 plus 3 wildcards play for 3 slots.
the 3 wild card game winners and the one bye make for two games, those winners play in the conference championships.

I have to go with the Pat's because I've been a fan since the 60"s but I'm nervous.
