NFL

After catching his 90th Career touchdown against the Colts on Sunday, and Davante Adams having a touchdownless game against the Chiefs, Evans enters week 13 just 1 Touchdown behind Adams for their careers. With the Raiders being on a bye week, this means Evans will need to catch 1 touchdown to equal Adams or 2 to pass Adams for sole lead. Evans opponent this week is the Worst team in the NFL, the Carolina Panthers who on their last meeting got destroyed by Evans as he had 10 catches for 200 yards and 3 TDs. If he is able to replicate this performance than he will become the active leader in Touchdown Receptions.

As an aside, if Mike Evans accumulates at least 150 more receiving yards for the season then he will tie Randy Moss for the second most 1000 yard receiving seasons in a career (10), a mere 4 behind Jerry Rice.

4,567	/u/KCShadows838 said Brees 46TD didn’t win MVP in 2011 because Rodgers had 45TD in fewer games, way fewer interceptions, got the top NFC seed, and beat Brees head to head

Watched the Browns/Broncos game this weekend and the entire game the announcers were talking the whole game about how the Cleveland defense is the best we have seen in decades, comparable to the legendary 2008 Steelers, blah blah blah...

Naw, not even remotely close. Forget the gargantuan gap between the 2023 Browns and the 2008 Steelers. Lets just take a look at the Browns vs. the other two defensive teams in their division.

Ravens are 1st in Sacks, 1st in opponent QB rating, 1st in redzone percentage, 7th in takeaways

Steelers are 4th in the league in takeaways, 6th in opponent QB rating, 4th in redzone percentage

These kind of things matter more than yards allowed. Ravens and Steelers allow more yards sure, over 100 more yards per game for the Steelers, but at the end of the day...

Ravens are 2nd in points allowed, Steelers are 5th in points allowed, Browns are 7th in points allowed. There are so many different ways to achieve defensive victory. Browns aren't even the best defense in their division, let alone a generationally good defense.

​

2/3 of the way through the 2023 season.

Latest from the Commodore64. Usual caveats with the numbers and I don't factor in tie-games as a possibility into the calculations. Apologies to the vocal group that doesn't like some of my 3-letter abbreviations.

• PHI, SFF, DET, DAL, MIN could all lose out and still make the playoffs. Other than PHI, the others shouldn't bank on that as a credible strategy.
• ATL, CAR, TBB, CHI, GBP, NYG, and LAR could mathematically sneak in with 6 wins. NOS, WAS, ARI, and SEA need at least 7 to have any kind of chance.
• If TBB wins out to reach 10 wins they're in, which is the lowest "assured" number of any team. C64 says ATL, NOS, and MIN need 11 wins to avoid any chance of being left out. DET, DAL, PHI, SFF, and SEA look like they need 12.
• CAR, CHI, GBP, NYG, WAS, LAR, and ARI do not control their own destiny.
• The "reasonable" win number that has decent chances of making the playoffs is 9, although 8 is waiting in the shadows to takeover the most likely status.
• Computer projections for wins likely to be good enough to take the divisions (i.e. roughly 2nd place + 1W or winning tiebreaker) are: NFC East 13 wins, North 10 wins, South 8-9 wins, West 10-11 wins.
• Looks like the Eagles clinch a spot this week with a win and a Rams loss. I penciled it out since that seemed weird that a Rams loss would matter as PHI beat them earlier and it looks like without the Rams losing, the possibilitiy would remain of a multi-team tie for all the wildcard spots occuring with the Rams winning the multi-team tiebreaker before h2h with the Eagles became relevant. At least that's the answer I'm going with because my head now hurts after trying to pencil it out.
• Panthers and Cardinals eliminated from contention with losses.
• My subjective analysis says get to 10 wins to be safe with 8 wins having at least moderate hope. Using that criteria, I have PHI (duh), SFF, DET, and DAL being "realistically in" as they could play Chargers football and still get there, and I have CAR, ARI, CHI, WAS, NYG as being "realistically out" as even 8 wins is either impossible for some or a tall order for the rest.
• For the teams in the middle of the fight, as in not on my realistically in or out lists above, there are four intra-conference games this week (SEA v DAL, DET v NOS, CAR v TBB, SFF v PHI), and the following outcomes would be the most beneficial to the non-combatant contenders as shown: Everyone better off with a DAL win over SEA; Everyone better off with a CAR win over TBB; LAR & SEA better off with a NOS win over DET, everyone else better off with a DET win; Computer says ATL better off with a SFF win over PHI and everyone else better off with a PHI win. I wasn't going to argue with the C64 on why that is for ATL.

Only the Jets, Patriots, Giants & Panthers have fewer points scored.

Only Pat Mahomes and Matt Stafford had higher completion percentages.

I feel like many teams’ fans complain their playcallers are calling way too many screen passes. So I was wondering who has the right to complain the most.

Hypothetically - a quarterback never misses a pass. Goes 35/35 for 600 yards and 5 touchdowns each game. What would their salary look like?

The Vikings defense has been incredible the last two weeks. Unfortunately the offense has been an absolute disaster, and a combination of turnovers, poor execution, and awful coaching have completely stifled any ability to capitalize on the defense.

The Linsanity run came to a screeching halt tonight lol

​

That’s it. I’m fucking tired of playing to not lose and then giving the other team a chance to win.

TLDR: A few conditions exist where the Cowboys would be good enough to clinch the 5th seed by December 17, but bad enough where they are eliminated from division contention. The Cowboys would have a full month of not playing a relevant game (December 17th to January 13th-15th). This is an unlikely scenario but I got bored.

Conditions that need to happen:

COWBOYS

Week 13: W vs Seahwaks

Week 14: L vs Eagles

Week 15: W vs Bills

Record after December 17th: 10-4

Worst possible record: 10-7

Best possible record: 13-4

EAGLES

Go 3-0 over next three weeks

Week 13: 49ers

Week 14: Cowboys

Week 15: Seahawks

Record after December 17th: 13-1

Worst possible record: 13-4 with tiebreaks over cowboys

SEAHAWKS

Lose at least 2 of the next 3 with 1 loss coming against Cowboys.

Week 13: Cowboys

Week 14: 49ers

Week 15: Eagles

Record after December 17th: 7-7

Best possible record: 10-7 without tiebreaks

VIKINGS

Lose the next 2 games

Week 13: Bye

Week 14: Raiders

Week 15: Bengals

Record after December 17th: 6-8

Best possible record: 10-8

PACKERS

Lose 2 of the next 3

Week 13: Chiefs

Week 14: Giants

Week 15: Bucs

Record after December 17th: 6-8

Best possible record: 10-8

RAMS

Lose 2 of the next 3

Week 13: Browns

Week 14: Ravens

Week 15: Commanders

Record after December 17th: 6-8

Best possible record: 10-8

NFC SOUTH

Two of the Falcons (5-6), Saints (5-6), and Bucs (4-7) get to 8 losses by Dec 17th. Falcons and Bucs play each other so guaranteed L for one of them.

Next 3 if each team

Falcons: Jets, Bucs, Panthers

Saints: Lions, Panthers, Giants

Bucs: Panthers, Falcons, Packers
