Here we are, week 16. I have a couple of comments about the standings and games. First, the playoff picture.

Teams which have clinched a playoff berth:

Chiefs, Bills, Steelers, Texans, Lions, Eagles and, Vikings.

Teams in the hunt:

Ravens, Broncos, Chargers, Buccaneers, Rams, Packers, and Commanders.

Bubble teams:

Colts, Dolphins, Bengals, Seahawks, Falcons, Cardinals, 49ers, Cowboys, and Saints.

Teams which have been eliminated:

Jets, Browns, Jaguars, Titans, Patriots, Bears, Panthers, Giants, and Raiders.

Two teams which will benefit if they lose their last two games are the Giants and Raiders. The Raiders fans are rooting for the Raiders to finish 2 and 14 so they get a good draft pick. Tom Brady has a 5% stake ownership in the Raiders, so maybe there will be better draft picks.

Falcons are on the Bubble, but they go into the game against the Giants without Cousins. He is being replaced by Penix. The coach is disappointed with Cousins. (Bevis and Butthead are in hysterics every time they see the name Penix.)

Rams are on the bubble, but that doesn’t mean the Jets are going to roll over. The Rams only scored 12 points against the 49ers. The Jets have a much better defense, and I don’t think this is going to be an easy win for the Rams. They definitely have the personnel though.

Eagles have clinched the playoffs, and the Commanders are in the hunt. Eagles have the number one defense, and are number one against the pass and number 7 against the run. But last game, Barkley was banged up a bit, so will the Eagles risk him a lot in this game? Can’t tell.

49ers are in the Hunt, and Dolphins are on the bubble. 49ers only scored 6 points last game, and they need to have a better game plan when they play away against the Dolphins. That being said, I give the 49ers defense credit for holding the Rams to 12 points.

Steelers are in the playoffs and Ravens are in the hunt. I can’t see the Ravens losing to the Steelers.

Buccaneers are in the Hunt, and Cowboys are on the bubble. Cowboys have shown they can put up points with Lamb and Dowdle. Key players for the Buccaneers are banged up but will probably play Sunday. Tough call for now.

Saints are on the bubble, and Packers are in the hunt. Carr is doubtful and Rattler is likely to start. It appears to me though that the Packers have the better offense.

Add your thoughts and analysis.
