here's the thread: but still....

According to the ESPN Playoff machine... it's all in our hands. If my math is right, we need to beat the saints OR the seahawks, and win at least one of the Bucs games

How loud will the BoA game vs the Bucs be?

This was nice way to start a weekend

Because, why not?

Can they? Will they?

Falcons you had ONE job

"We're" still in this

Freakin laundry game

How was that not intentional grounding?

Not hating all the Panthers talk tonight

Announcers were right that it was crazy we sat Baker behind PJ Walker

saints won last week vs the bucs. Falcons could too.

BYU vs GT looks like it'd be a good game in general. Looking forward to that (plus the pop tart shenanigans)

Whew, it won't compete against the Pop Tart Bowl (#12 BYU Cougars vs the #22 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets - Saturday, December 27, 2025, at 3:30 PM ET) And yes, the Pop Tart Bowl DOES have the best marketing plan of all the bowls

main schedule point is to keep Tampa and Carolina in the same timeslot so the two games can be competitive rather than letting one matchup be a cupcake due to results of the earlier game (assuming that week is important for the NFC South race)

TL;DR; version? Seahawks @ Carolina 1p Sunday longer version? The NFL holds back final schedule for Week 17 and 18 as TBD for scheduling purposes. Go figure

Seems weird. If it's flexed to Sunday Night then it will be an NBC national game for those stations that are just outside the Panthers designated viewing area (you know who you are) that have a choice as to which game to show... they'll likely choose to air the game that is most meaningful rather than some cupcake. And if they choose not to air Panthers and choose to air some other game: CALL THE STATION AND LET THEM KNOW. They can always change back

Of all the stat lines coming out of that MNF craziness, the highlight has to be Jalen being the only player to throw an INT and fumble the ball on the same play. Classic

Finally in a convo where we arent in the bottom tier

OMG, this chocolate cake is so moist and delicious

If he stays or if he leaves, do you think it'd be a Dan/Dave decision, or (let's hope not) would Tepper have a hand in that say-so? (Still on the hopeful "tepper has been staying out of football operations" train)

recall that they likely kept Evero when they brought on Canales partially because they thought the issue was the talent he had to work with vs his gameplan. Figured "let's see what he can do when he has some talent to play with" of course, doesn't explain our horrible defensive situation last year, but it's certainly turned around this season

The nfl.com Chance of Playoff Percentage stat has shifted up for us by a tiny tiny bit (like.. uh, 2 points??) to 19% with the Dallas loss tonight. So yay us, I guess?

The NFL and NFL Players Association have agreed to a new model for selecting playing surfaces in stadiums Fingers crossed we get a grass field back. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47203298/nfl-union-agree-new-model-picking-playing-surfaces
