You know there was that 6-6 tie in Arizona a couple years ago. They also lost to cleveland years ago 6-3 when Charlie Whitehurst was the staring QB.

Fake news. They only need 3 of those team to win to win the SOV tiebreaker. (Not all 6) https://www.fieldgulls.com/2024/12/26/24330038/nfl-playoff-scenarios-seattle-seahawks-win-over-chicago-bears-means-nfc-west-race Green Bay can win that game. Detroit- Who's playing? If Philly loses the day before, Detroit will lock up the #1 seed. Might as well rest. Denver should be more motivated. Win and there in. Miami hasn't played great, could go either way. Bills have nothing to play for, will probably rest.

Night shift GFS sucks. Most likely gonna be a raging AL pattern for extended stretches now. The new normal.
