Early games- Open Thread
Lots of playoff intrigue with many of the early games: Will Cleveland win, making tonight's flexed game a must for the Titans? Will Pittsburgh grab the 3rd seed with Roethlisberger sitting? Will San Diego get the 3rd seed? If they do, it would be a re-match between SD and Tennessee from a few weeks ago.
Oh, and be prepared for all the "Perfect Pats" talk today. Again, according to Chris Collinsworth last night, the 2007 Patriots are the greatest team in the history of football. Amazing how Chris always makes statements prematurely regarding the Pats. I suggest you retain and remember Chris' statement last night folks. I know I will.
This is an open thread. Enjoy.
[Update [2007-12-30 11:18:8 by BigBlueShoe]: Thought this was funny regarding last night's game:
But if there were time, he'd probably try this: ESPN reported this evening that Colts quarterback Peyton Manning called his brother, Giants quarterback Eli Manning, to give him the simple message that the Patriots are beatable.
Of course, that's not exactly a shocking comment. What's Peyton supposed to say? "Hey, Eli, just so you know, you have no chance"? But it is a comment that you can bet Belichick will mention to his players in three weeks, assuming the seemingly inevitable Patriots-Colts AFC Championship game does, in fact, take place.

Well, actually...
Anyone remember how the USC Trojans were the best team ever and then they got beat in the Rose Bowl? They certainly weren't, were they? UT certainly proved that.
The Pats deserve the acclaim for being the first team to do this, but they have just a good a chance of winning in the playoffs as they do losing. It's going to be a fun month and a half!

The Pats will pick between
If all three lose the pick is #8. If any win they are tied at 5-11 and it's decided by strength of schedule or coin flip if tied.
