NFL week 17 final predictions

FUCK THAT SHIT

For what its worth - the Rams are the only team in the division with any hope for the future - and they're better than my Browns... I just want to see a sub .500 division winner for the novelty of it. Rams should win though.

Him and Reggie Bush are two completely different backs. He has only started 6 games this season but has just under a 1,000 yards rushing with over 5 yard average. He is a very exciting back to watch though that's for sure. For being suspended pretty much his whole senior year with Oregon he has stepped it up.

Next season he will be a top 5 running back.

I think more teams will prepare for him(Blount), which will also prove whether or not he will be successful next year. This year most of the teams they've played seem to play more pass defense because of the year that Josh freeman has had, and having good target's like Mike Williams and Kellen Winslow, to name a few. Perfect example, LT goes to the Jets, who are a pass happy team and opposing teams had a pass defense type game plan for the first half of the season and LT was lighting them all up.

lol i just wanted to use that add on though lol. Yea Im happy that we are in this position in playing late games in December and now January after the past few years. Cleveland has a bright future and it starts with Colt McCoy and Peyton Hillis, give them a couple of years

I don't have a clue... Highly doubt it. Monday Night Football game so it would be on espn.

I looked it up on PFT, the Rams vs. Seahawks has been moved to Sunday Night on NBC. There is not a monday night game this week.

The primary challenge presented by the selection of a prime-time game for flexing to the last night of the regular season comes from the fact that the night game needs to be relevant regardless of the outcome of any afternoon games.

This year, there’s only one game that falls into that category.

When the Rams travel to Seattle to face the Seahawks on Sunday, the winner will capture the NFC West title and the home playoff game that goes along with it.

If the Rams win, the champion will be 8-8. If the Seahawks win, a losing record of 7-9 will be the “winning” record as far as the NFC West is concerned.

Before any of you assume that the NFC West champ will summarily be dismissed from the postseason in wild-card weekend, don’t forget that the 9-7 Cardinals widely were described as the worst team ever to secure a playoff berth two years ago, given multiple blowout losses, including a 47-7 defeat in Foxboro that came only two weeks before the wild-card round. The Cards got it together and nearly won the Super Bowl.

Then again, the Cardinals had Kurt Warner and Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin and Karlos Dansby and Darnell Dockett. Really, how in the heck did that team only win nine games?

Sorry Phil but if it comes down to the Saints marching into St. Louis during the playoffs I feel bad for your team... I really do.

Let's compare? What big names does St. Louis have compared to that Arizona team?

It dosent matter, after what has happened in the 3 years prior with this team it dosent. Yea we are a longshot in the playoffs, but you never know. Thats why you play the games.

BTW Sam Bradford, Steven Jackson, James Lauranitis, Chris Long, Oshiomogho Atogwe, Danny Amendola. Also keep in mind this offense would be better if Mark Clayton and Donnie Avery didnt get injured early in the season.

Well good luck to you!

Sam Bradford is good but not proven, IMO. However Steven Jackson and Atogwe are. I like the little guy Amendola what college is he from? Tech?

Don't forget about those pesky Cleveland Browns.

For a rookie, and for the amount of talent, of lack there of, on that team I think he has done exceptionally well(God forgive me). I will admit that I didn't have high expectations for Bradford this year, but I have been pleasantly surprised by his performance. Not perfect which is to be expected, but again, look at the lack of talent he is surrounded by. I'm not arguing by the way, just pointing out a few things that crossed my mind regarding Bradford this year.

it has suprised me as well, and people talk about the talent but dont know the whole story. We lost Donnie Avery our #1 WR in preseason for the year, then lost Mark Clayton against the Lions in Week 5 I believe for the year. Bradford and Clayton had very good chemistry together. Also all that talk about his shoulder being injured in college can go away.

played college at Texas Tech, and was signed by the Dallas Cowboys

Oh I know all about the injuries. I had picked up Clayton of waivers in week 2 because he looked like he was about to become a solid 2 or 3 WR in most fantasy leagues. The loss of Avery was also a big hit, but look at what Bradford has done while those talented guys are out for the year, still giving his team the best chance to win ball games, as well as win several.

I thought so. I remember him and Crabtree did very well at Tech.

Bradford has surprised me a whole lot this year I'm not knockin him just can't compare Bradford to a grocery bagger.

you look at next year and you will hopefully have both Clayton and Avery back at 100 percent for 2011 as well as Danny Amendola who has 83 catches for 680 yards and 3 TD's. Amendola reminds me of a Wes Welker type.
