!st of the new 12 team playoffs. Irish are favored by  - 7.   ESPN gives Irish a 70.4 % chance of winning. I'm not counting Indiana out. Looking forward to this game.

Was looking forward to another good matchup, but Dame is listed as out with a calf strain.

Giannis and Middleton are probable.

Why? Because Eff the Celtics!

The Sultan of Stat says the Celtics would have won if this were hockey. They led after three periods. Alas, they lost their defensive way (35-point Chicago 4th) and composure with the refs -- and got iced.@DickLipe has the notes from a "technical" knockout. #seewhatwedidthere? pic.twitter.com/b0akUSSYBP

Almost halftime. Anyone watching?

The Charger defense which is supposed to be really good has allowed 3 straight TD's.

Although they had a Bronco illegally down field on a TD and picked up the flag when he was clearly illegally down field. I don't get these refs.

21-10 Broncos

If you have YTTV and recently received notice of the $10/month increase, here's a hack to save save money.

Go through the process of cancelling, for reason select "cost", you will get offer for $72.99 for 6 months.

Cool $60 for about 3 minutes of time.

Does anyone have it and what are your thoughts?

Needs its own thread away from the Jets

I haven't watched it. I'll probably check it out later but I'll let @PackerHawk tell us the story before I see it.

Wilde on the radio just now....said he doesn't see himself watching it. Wilde relayed a story he never told before ....

Wilde remembers Rodgers as the guy he had to cancel dinner on after the 2009 season because his wife was in labor. Rodgers showed up at the hospital to bring some flowers for Wilde's wife. Jason Wilde wants to remember the guy that was at his house playing with his daughters, hiding under the bed. Wilde doesn't know the guy in the current format but Wilde doesn't quit on people. He's avoiding watching Enigma.

Good stuff from Wilde.....and like I always say.....the truth ALWAYS comes out, it just takes time.

Middleton out due to illness.

   For most of my adult life my football friends and I has discussed what it is that separates most QB prospects beyond ht/wt and why so many fail.  I often spent much of the discussion talking about -what I described as video vision and pointed out those few Qb's that seemed to possess it.  Of course this doesn't account for all of it but how many QB's w/ great arm talent and physical skills just stink.

   I was recently sent an article by one of those friends who came across it while studying something else and I just wonder why more NFL teams don't look into this.  Here is the link

CHI (4-9) at MIN (11-2)
Really, this is the game that will be of most interest.
I hope that the Bores will relish the role of being "The Spoiler" and play hard enough to give the Vikes a run for their money.
I just won't hold my breath waiting for that to happen.
The Vikes are a much better team on both sides of the ball, playing at home, and should be motivated to win and tie Detoilet for the division lead.
I can't see Chitcago overcoming all of that.

ATL (6-7) at LVR (2-11)
Kind of the same situation as CHI/MIN, but on a much smaller scale.
The Falcons are the better team, but who knows which Cap'n Kirk is going to show up this week?
Good Kirk should mean Atlanta walks away with this game.
Bad Kirk means it'll be a much closer game and will give the Raiders an actual chance of winning.
