Rob Ryan with the Gatorade bath! Good to see the "Tub-o-goo" do well against his former team!

HD, Salsa, or myself could have done a better job at QB than Charlie Frye did today.
The only reasons Oakland won last week:
1. JaMarcus. Frye did nothing in Denver; it was all Russell.
2. The running game.

In all fairness, I don't think Oakland had much more of an option.
Frye and Gradkowski do not have the talent to be starting QB's in this league and Jamarcus has been a bust.
His defense gave up 390 yards. OUR defense played much better and held them to 280 yards. His defense bent but didn't break. The Raiders defense didn't bent or break...it self destructed in penalties are our QB threw 3 TDs with JaMarcus Russell type accuracy(2 INTs completely overthrown and one so far behind the WR that it litterally looked like he threw TO the defender....

Only in Oakland does yards count more than points on the scoreboard. Classic Post Salsa! LMAO!!!
PS, the majority of your "yards" came in mop-up time when we went to "prevent defense" when the game was in the bag.
The Raiders have a shot to play playoff spoiler on the final week of the season for the second straight year.
Last year, it was Tampa.
This year, Baltimore.

Frye is not a starting QB. Gradkowski is MUCH better QB than Frye....and he has proved that. The ONLY reason he did not play was because his injury was still too serious to risk his health on a team that had no chance of making the playoffs. JaMarcus is undefeated in Denver....he has their number. And finally, they won in Denver because they ain't that good and it was a tough DIVISIONAL game. In those type of divisional games, you never know what might happened.
Welp, I'm signing out. Going to pick up some Pizza to celebrate! Hope everyone had a great Christmas Weekend!

No....I never said that they dominated....YOU DID...! I said they DIDN'T dominate because they ended up with more yards than the Browns did. AND, the so-called "mop-up" minutes were the final 3 of the game. The game was undecided with 4 and change with 4th and goal....not in the 3rd quater as your "mop-up" comment suggest.
We lost,, not because we were outplayed. We lost because we beat ourselves with penalties and turnovers. The Browns took advantage of that and that IS part of the game. But by no way did the Browns "dominate" this game.
The Pats based on SOV (strength of victory), but unless it's the #2 seed does it really matter?
The only scenario where it would matter: the Pats and Bengals upset the Colts and Chargers on divisional weekend.....then the #3 seed would host the AFCCG.
Don't confuse things with facts, he did the same thing last week after the Chiefs put up 450 yards of offense. A win is a win, but there have certainly been prettier ones. If wins over the Chiefs and Raiders mean someone thinks they should keep their coach, then you must not have many options.
Which team's offensive/defensive unit has been the most surprising this year?
I have to say the Cincy defense.

Even if the Redskins were to beat Dallas tonight, they still would have to beat a Vikings team that suddenly has reason to play the finale- a shot at the #1 seed.
They've had that reason to play this whole time, they've just been playing poorly.
Looks like Broncos giving up their shot at controlling their destiny, only 3 uninjured/eligible (Stokley ejected haha) receivers active.

Are you sure? If Miami wins next week, to go 8-8, and if Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Houston and Denver all lose next week, or if only one of them wins, then at least three of them, along with Miami, would be 8-8 overall and 6-6 in the conference, so they would have to go to "strength of victory", which I don't know how to figure out, to pick the two wildcard entries. Also, Jacksonville can go 8-8. Even if one of the four teams with 8 wins goes 9-7, Miami would still be in a big tie with the rest that would also have to be settled through the strength of victory method.
If indeed Miami could survive a strength of victory determination, then their chances of making the playoffs, using the simple permutation method and ignoring the fact that the home team or better team is more likely to win each game, would be 5 in 32 (1 in 16 that all four eight-win teams lose, 4 in 16 that 3 of those 4 lose, and 50-50 that Miami wins).
A Jacksonville win would put them into such a tie breaker, but would not affect Miami's chance of being in such a tie breaker but might adversely influence their chance of winning it.
