Dynasty

If Buffalo can't win games they're supposed to, then I say it's a possibility. There isn't a lot of confidence in my statement, but I'll stand by it.

I'm guessing you didn't fully read my quote so I'll just post it there again. One win against a single opponent doesn't define them. The Dolphins can still finish ahead of the Bills, even being swept.

Yes because the Bills have been totally performing at a Super Bowl level in all their games so far this season, right? I'm going to say it: The Dolphins are going to lose to every Super Bowl contender on their schedule. This offense, like pretty much last season, is a facade and not sustainable. Fraudulent is a word I'd use, but as long as they can pat their record and stats until playoff time, I just don't really care. I went well over a decade seeing this team finish with no more than eight wins a season. I'll take a fraudulent team as long as they're relevant in the playoff picture.

I loved that shade of Seahawks blue, but most of the time it was darkened by the environment they played in. This could've either been during rainy weather, inside domes with poor lighting, or during night games. It felt similar to the Eagles' midnight green back then, though Nike's material seems to improve on the brightness that Reebok lacked. Still, I just don't see Seattle returning to that color.

I don't think there has been one logo refresh they have botched in my most recent memory. Props to them on another fantastic update.

I was hoping the Phoenix area could get another title, but that will just have to wait. Good for the Rangers. It's always cool to see that first title come around.

Tennessee vs. Pittsburgh Miami vs. Kansas City Minnesota vs. Atlanta Chicago vs. New Orleans LA Rams vs. Green Bay Washington vs. New England Seattle vs. Baltimore Tampa Bay vs. Houston Arizona vs. Cleveland Indianapolis vs. Carolina NY Giants vs. Las Vegas Dallas vs. Philadelphia Buffalo vs. Cincinnati LA Chargers vs. NY Jets

At least the Bears are limited to two primetime games this season (I'm not counting Thursday). The Raiders though have even more, with about five (two SNF, two MNF, Christmas Day). Were there offseason playoff aspirations for LV that I just overlooked?

Four weeks to be precise. I owe the Bengals an apology.

Is Utah's Cameron Rising out for the season or something? He still hasn't played since his injury last year.

Outside of the one against the Bengals, he missed the next two and came back against the Steelers on SNF. His second concussion on Christmas pretty much ended his season.

There's a temperature difference between the two cities?

I was already surprised about Texas being here, but I can't believe Arizona is in it as well. That is just wild to me. Both literally finished with over 100 losses two years ago!

At first I thought I was bombing this week, but then I remembered that everyone else picked nearly the same as me. 6-7 feels like a good W for me. Tampa Bay vs. Buffalo NY Jets vs. NY Giants Jacksonville vs. Pittsburgh Philadelphia vs. Washington LA Rams vs. Dallas Minnesota vs. Green Bay Atlanta vs. Tennessee New England vs. Miami New Orleans vs. Indianapolis Houston vs. Carolina Cleveland vs. Seattle Cincinnati vs. San Francisco Kansas City vs. Denver Baltimore vs. Arizona Chicago vs. LA Chargers Las Vegas vs. Detroit

Weird that they used the Eagles throwback logo for SNF, but didn't for the Patriots several weeks ago.

A New York sports fan rooting for a team from rival Philadelphia. Your disdain for warm-weather cities makes no sense.

Yeah, I've never understood why Boston has been kept in the dark. Weren't they accused of practically the same thing or am I missing some telling detail?

I'm doing better than I would've thought. Still pretty early though. Jacksonville vs. New Orleans Tampa Bay vs. Atlanta Las Vegas vs. Chicago Cleveland vs. Indianapolis Washington vs. NY Giants Detroit vs. Baltimore Buffalo vs. New England Arizona vs. Seattle Pittsburgh vs. LA Rams LA Chargers vs. Kansas City Green Bay vs. Denver Miami vs. Philadelphia San Francisco vs. Minnesota

I'm thinking that last year wasn't much of a fluke. This Phillies team is really good.

Denver vs. Kansas City Baltimore vs. Tennessee Washington vs. Atlanta Minnesota vs. Chicago Seattle vs. Cincinnati San Francisco vs. Cleveland Carolina vs. Miami Indianapolis vs. Jacksonville New Orleans vs. Houston New England vs. Las Vegas Arizona vs. LA Rams Philadelphia vs. NY Jets Detroit vs. Tampa Bay NY Giants vs. Buffalo Dallas vs. LA Chargers

The NBA and NHL also do seeding that way. I guess earning the top seed isn't as desirable now since you could very well play the next best team before even getting to the conference/league championship.

Lamar Jackson is trash now. The Ravens bolster the receiving core in what feels like the first time ever for them and he still can't throw consistently. That 2019 season is long in the rearview mirror.

The logos have gotten worse after each new one. It's like they're trying too hard to make it abstract.

It feels like the Orioles got the tougher end of the AL playoffs, even though they're the top seed. I know you have to eventually face tougher opponents as you advance, but this Rangers team looks dangerous. They could've been a top seed if they didn't choke it up.

Chicago vs. Washington Jacksonville vs. Buffalo New Orleans vs. New England Tennessee vs. Indianapolis Baltimore vs. Pittsburgh Carolina vs. Detroit Houston vs. Atlanta NY Giants vs. Miami Cincinnati vs. Arizona Philadelphia vs. LA Rams NY Jets vs. Denver Kansas City vs. Minnesota Dallas vs. San Francisco Green Bay vs. Las Vegas
