If the Titans got a bye, they wouldn't play until like January 25th, I wonder if Henry could comeback by then. They said 8-10 weeks, the 10 week mark is around January 7th.

In retrospect, hard to believe they tried to give a guy 500 carries and get away with it.
Cowbell RB baby!

If Titans can squeeze this thing, their schedule gets really easy going forward. Hou 2x, Jville, Miami, SF.....NO as well.

Toughest remaining games would be @Pitt/NE by far

They averaged 3.5 yards a play tonight, I'm not sure I'd use the term dominating.
28-9 and never in danger of losing the game. They didn't even need great ball movement tonight with how much their defense dominated this game

Wise people think big picture. Just remember, it wasn't long ago the Titans lost to the Jets. With the Elf as their QB.

Tennessee is good. They have been for the past couple of years. Solid. But they aren't a great team. They will lay an egg or two down the stretch.

Impressed by what they have done the past few weeks though. Good run. At this point, their resume is the best in the AFC. No doubt.

@Rams is probably the toughest spot in the league right now so wasn't said dismissively by me or anything. Not taking anything away from them but their offense had 1 good drive all night. They had 2 defensive TD's basically and their last TD was on penalties, that is noisy stuff.

You get turnovers, penalties, hold other team to FG's while doing next to nothing on offense on the road as a 7pt dog, I'd call that squeezing a win regardless of the final score.

That being said, they didn't have their LT and they're still adjusting to playing without Henry and they may not play a spot as tough as @ Rams the rest of the year if things go right for them.

That bye week is huge nowadays though, especially if you can couple it with a week 18 resting of your starters double dip.

Half these teams might be dead by mid January.

It wasn't that long ago that the Saints beat the Buccs on a Tom Brady pick 6 to end the game. Then a mere 7 days later they stole a million dollars from me in a survivor league I was eventually going to win

Maybe dominating is the wrong word, but they were in control the game the whole night.

Rams were due for an egg. They're also just not as great as people think

The Bills are the best team in the AFC. Regardless of their recent struggles.

They will have HFA throughout and coast to the Super Bowl.

Patriots are winning the East

I put some money on NE at 29-1 to win AFC last week.
Basically it’s a fade bet vs the rest of the AFC
Good value on that bet
Not a single great team in either league really .

The NFL is pretty mediocre this year

Good hedge

:)

Only 1 quality win though, not sold on them.

And three last second losses
Fish on opening day before injuries depleted them
Bucs
Cowboys

Obviously they have to learn to win those games, and that's a work in progress

They've played one bad game, vs the Saints
