Its BS to put GB Sunday night because lions could be drawing dead, but of course they will anyway because lol nfl and surely they want godgers in

I just pulled up a page on ESPN.com and a video autoplayed where they asked a round table the question: who would you rather have in this yearâs playoffs, Tom Brady or Trevor Lawrence?
I know Brady hasnât had a great season but I mean, come on.
If the Bills win tonight, Bills/Patriots is the super-obvious choice for SNF game.
Bills would be win and #1 seed. Patriots would be win and #7 seed.
EDIT: I guess they could also do Bengals/Ravens for the division title and Lamar returning. Either would be far better than Packers/Lions.
If the Bengals win tonight, then the choices are kinda shitty, and Packers/Lions is probably the best option.
The Patriots can clinch a playoff spot regardless of what happens against the Bills if the Jets beat the Dolphins, the Browns beat the Steelers, and Jaguars beat the Titans. Whatâs the probability of all three occurring?

Actually pretty good.
Just off the top of my head.
Jags win 80%
Browns win 40%
Jets win 50%
So letâs say 15-20% give or take. Throw in Belichick luckbox factor and weâre probably even money.
But 15 year jerry jones is the devil. Guy literally dumped the cowboys for the browns.
That scheduling is such bullshit for Seattle

The Packers are the only guaranteed win or go home team on Sunday. My impression is that theyâve always been biased in the past towards putting such a team on Sunday night. Am I wrong about that?
I honestly wouldnât be surprised if Detroit still goes balls to the wall against GB even if theyâve already been eliminated. Theyâre going to prepare as if all the starters are playing and they would love to fuck up GBâs run. With their coach, I think it would be odd if they prepare as if their best players are all playing and then heâs like, nope, play the practice squad guys.
Makes sense.
NE v Buf at noon is a surprise. I thought that Green Bay v lions would get Sunday night, but at least cbs game of the week I figured.
they did, they got giants eagles well fox actually did they got washington dallas, NFC East is always game of the week to networks, they have the most fans and those games still matter
with KC on saturday, cin/buf can go at noon on sunday seems fine to me
of course SNF is going to take anything that is not titans jaguars when possible and itâs AARON RODGERS HAS TO WIN
I thought cbs always got games where the road team is from the AFC. Is that not a thing anymore?
(And fox got nfc games)
Think a lot of that has changed over the past couple of years. And will change even more with the MNF flex.

Itâs usually but not 100% so. Itâs still mostly true but they try to give affiliates of both networks a couple of games for the local team, which requires adjustment when teams have primetime interconference road games and theyâve adopted what they refer to as âcross-flexingâ where they switch afternoon games between the two networks, usually to create a better balance of interesting games between the two networks.
