NFL GDT: Week 18: The Darnold Testament

[SwordsgoneWild]

Bucs hold tie-breaker over Rams though.

Evans with the record!!!

Ah that might be even better. Rams vs Lions/Vikings will be great.

 

[GKJ]

Are the Rams and Bucs locked into the 3 and 4?

 

[Master P]

Mickey Mouse play to get Evans a record lol

 

[Ace]

That’s so funny. Cousin Sal doesn’t believe in tanking. Way to rub it in, lol

I don’t know that I believe in season long tanking in the NFL…I guess I’d have to see the situation first. But I do believe that conversation is different than losing a game in week 18 to backups that doesn’t matter to anyone but the value of your draft pick. It’s such a mistake. That one you have to lose. Fate put you in the drivers seat for the offseasons most valuable asset. Can’t give it away

If I am the Rams, I am playing to win this game coming up. Huge difference in the Commies vs loser of Vikings/Lions game tonight.

I thought it was possible the Rams could fall to 4

Look at these scores around the league. Players and coaches don't tank.

TBD.

Think if Rams win then they're 3 .If not then Tampa will be 3.

Other than the Browns

Yep. Players are playing for jobs next season especially if they are free agents

The Giants lost to Eagles backups. Maybe not the day to make that argument.

I also watched the Browns scratch Winston for two QBs far worse for the last couple weeks,

So I’m just going to disagree

 

[SirClintonPortis]

Nail biter between Atl and Car yanked for Broncos-Chiefs. Lol

Think I'd rather see the Vikings and Bucs play each other. Mayfield vs. Darnold for the scorn of Panthers fans.

You need some competence to tank.

It's a meaningless game now.

Coaches cannot defy the owners wishes. Players don't tank, true.

Atlanta Chickens living up to their rep.

Well, the Giants do actually stink. And they played their best QB they had.

Browns wanted to get guys on the field. But they don't go into games trying to lose.

 

[GKJ]

I wonder if the Falcons know their season is over

I give Stefanski credit for not taking any chances the last few weeks, but incompetence did put them on the doorstep

I watched the Bills punt from the Pats 35 while trailing in the second half to get the punter a bonus and then run clock on themselves down a score trying to get to the exit. Costing the Patriots the equivalent of the 12th pick in the draft in doing so.

That's not the same, the Bills don't give a shit about the Patriots draft.

Jimmy G starting for the Rams
