The NFL Thread 2: 1. T Swift

Seriously. That guy gets it.

I might like Geno better than I liked Russ, and I really liked Russ.

Playing around with ESPNā€™s Playoff Machineā€¦I am totally rooting for this not altogether ridiculous scenario in the NFC:

That would definitely be something.

Vikings losing out and would still make the playoffs.

Browns made a mistake in going with Watson over Mayfield. you heard it here first!

Has an entire division made it in the playoffs since the 2002 realign?

LETS DO IT!

14-3 Dallas @ 7-10 NFC south would rustle a lot more feathers than if it was the eagles

You are right. Better question would be if a division took all the wild cards possible ever.

Havenā€™t checked, but I do think that has happened.

Back when the Colts were in the AFC East I think it happened a couple times.

Itā€™s happened several times since they went to multiple wild cards. I remember the entire NFC Central (minus the Bucs, of course) got in one year in the 90s and all played each other on wild card weekend.

Up until last year a four team division couldnā€™t all make the playoffs.

Seahawks have an atrocious run defense and the GIants have Saquon.

I donā€™t think that game will necessarily be a cakewalk for Seattle.

Do you all know if any sites track missed tackles as an advanced stat at the team level?

AFC North did it about 6 years ago (the Brown/Burfict game) Ravens also made it.

NFC East Iā€™m pretty sure did it in 2009 (Cowboys beat Eagles R1)

Fairly certain the AFCW did it around 2014 or so as well with Rivers/Manning/Smiff

I was just assuming the 4 NFC east teams would be paired up in the first round.
