2025 Other Games Thread - End of Season

insane 4th quarter. But we lost to the Giants as you may recall. Good teams find ways to win

Good teams - sure, but every week needing a tipped pass at the end or some other oddity.

They won the turnover battle against the Chargers 2 - 0, and still lost.

Not denying they've gotten some lucky breaks this year.

But they are stout in the trenches, have an insane pass rush, and enough weapons on offense to cause problems. Some people want to underrate Bo Nix because of some weird Oregon competition/connection with Herbert (?), but he's a good young QB who makes plays. Deep ball needs to get better but I think Denver will eventually end up the #1 seed and I see them at least getting to the AFC Championship Game. They have a winning formula right now, and whatever playmaking Nix can give them in the playoffs is a bonus.

Good chance they are resting starters by that final week matchup so we might be able to secure a playoff win that final week.

They have a top 3 offensive line, a top 3 defense and a good HC. That gives them a lot of room for error in their games, but they are really living on the edge. 8 of their wins are by one score so while you have to tip your hat to them for taking advantage of things, one play in some of those games and that is a 6-6 record.

It's wide open this year

The way Denver struggled against the 3-8 Commanders with Mariota at QB, the Raiders at home have a chance to upset the Broncos next week.

Raiders are 2-10
So either the Broncos or the Chiefs will be their "playoff /chance to be the spoiler" game. They also play at Houston and Philly, along with the Giants but those games would not mean as much as an AFCW tilt against an old rival.

I don't expect the Raiders to win but lets hope Madd Maxx gets like 4 sacks and more importantly, pass the bleeping ball to Bowers. Get him about 10 -12 targets. Raiders have nothing to lose. Trick plays, fake punts, go for it on 4th down... Play to win the game!!

Pete Carroll may be coaching for his job now. If he has anything left in the tank its time to empty it or face an ignominious end to a long career

Giants vs Pats on now! Pats already in the red zone only three minutes into the game.

Giants almost beat us. They don’t look good so far tonight.

[Packfan19]

Pats return a punt 94 yards for a TD already up 10-0.

Pats are chippy and physical like Vrabel. Already punking the Giants
