NFL Week 17 -- Swimming Downstream

That had nothing on ECU-NCState - and where the hell was Big Dom?

 

Beat me to it.

Do they face each other to start next season, too?

 

1) No animals were harmed in the making of this highlight.
2) If Tampa Bay makes a playoff run, you can fully expect a pop-up cottage industry selling Duckaneers merchandise.
3) Guy rocking the mullet/mustache combo lovingly holding a duck on the sideline of a football game should be in the Florida Man Hall of Fame.

 

I love that the Seahawks need to "win" a 13-out-of-14 parley to make the playoffs.

 

Needed a Thomas TD. Ching. Then a James Cook TD on basically the last play he was in for Buffalo. Add Mike Evans and Jonathan Taylor, and you’ve got a +1642 hit, baby.

 

Is this a recurring theme with the Eagles? There was a lot of extra crap going on in their game against the Steelers, too, including the big fight in the end zone when two Steelers got roughing calls and even replay assist in New York missed Eagles players throwing punches.

 

The ducks did more to slow down the Buccaneers than the Panthers did.

(But the ducks weren't without their four best representatives, either. Not sure what anyone who lives in reality expected Ejiro Evero to do.)

 

For the second week in a row a team gave up its hold on the No. 1 pick

a Cleveland loss drops giants from 1 to 4

 

What is it going to take for the Raiders or Giants to get the top pick in addition to a pick-swap? A two? A future no. 1? It isn't like they have a player NE or a team that already has a QB can use. Brock Bowers excepted.

 

For one of them to hire Scott Fitterer to ensure the dumbest deal possible.

 

I'm not sure as of today there is someone out there who is a must take with the first pick, though I concede that there are team owners and GM's that must prove they're the smartest of them all by maneuvering their futures around for pick P1 at the draft.

 

I might be the only guy who is OK with the Raiders bringing back Pierce. Clearly, the team is still playing hard (maybe too hard). Unless they bring in Vrabel, I don't see a coach out there worth making a change for.
