Bengals up 10-0 on the Steelers

[PandaMan]

They just showed that we have #5 pick behind ATL?  Not sure if that’s true.  

[Kentucky Panther]

If the Falcons and Panthers both lose out, which I think is likely, who gets pick 4? I can imagine those fvckers would get off on taking the QB we want. 

[Mother Grabber]

lol, stillers defense getting outsmarted

[DJ feed me moore]

Id cry tears of joy if we got Sewell

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

Sewell would literally be the only non QB I'd be fine with taking

[DJ feed me moore]

oh my god, he dropped the game sealing INT

WFT fighting for a playoff spot, Rivera coaching against his old team so his players will be geeked up, should be a competitive game but we might struggle to block their pass rush and not score 

[Davidson Deac II]

Not sure if the Falcons would take a QB.  They should, but not sure they will.

Detroit gonna trade Stafford to Pittsburgh this offseason for a Primanti Bros Cap and Egg with a Yuengling.

Anyone know why ESPN said we’re #5 in the draft?

Every site I check has us drafting #4 and the Falcons #5.  Now those are current, and not projecting to the end of the season.

Why, you ask?  Two reasons.  First, ESPN's web site projects where the teams will be at the end of the seasons.  So, they run a bunch of simulations and then take the average of all the outcomes.  In essence, their simulations have us winning more games than the Falcons, even if the majority of all those simulations says we will both lose out.

The other sites are looking at raw numbers, with no projection. 

The second reason would be that ESPN has a solid reputation of screwing things up.  That's why I have the stereo on while the audio of the game is muted.

We're tied and according to Tankathon barely have them beat with a slightly lower SOS . 

Not sure who is correct maybe espn has the falcons with a lower SOS . Or they simply didn't account for it . Who knows .

EDIT : according to above the ESPN is a projection of what pick well ultimately end up with , sites like Tankathon are a "if the draft started right now this is your pick " 

[Double Trouble]

Why did the Chargers have to botch that hook and ladder...

[Panthercougar68]

Even the NBC broadcast didn't know how the draft order worked and had to be told yesterday on air.
