Titans up to number 6. It’s a shame how much better they are than many of the teams who will actually make the playoffs.
Can Jay Cutler rise up and carry Commodore power deep into the playoffs? Probably not, but it’s fun to see him playing well.
This week is a waste, game-wise. Most teams just don’t have anything to play for this week, and many of the best teams who have clinched important playoff advantages will be playing at half-speed. So it’s hard to tell what will happen (as opposed to most weeks when everything I say goes.) The best three games include Jacksonville finishing off Kansas City, Baltimore beating the Bills, and in what would normally be the game of the week, New England edging the ascendant Tennessee Titans. If the Titans could pull out a win in that one, they might very well finish the year in the 4th spot overall, with 9 teams below them in the playoffs.
