Well hello again. We have the finest selection of late afternoon tilts today. Three of the four are very interesting and all have serious playoff implications. This is what happens when the Cardinals aren’t involved. Take note, NFL.

To The Games!

Seahawks/Rams:

A Bobby Wagner revenge game? Jk, the team he’s playing on is unraveling at a frightening pace and there’s no turnaround in sight. Stafford is gone to IR and is doing his best impression of Fat Elf on a Shelf. Seattle’s always formidable run D took a big hit last week, giving up 283 yards, the most since 2000. Thing is, the Rams just don’t have the guns to exploit that weakness. They’ll be trotting out Wolford again but don’t be surprised to see Perkins if/when things go south.

Fins/Niners:

It’s the old “team that wants to run faces team that you can’t run against” thingy. On the surface one might say the game below features the most firepower but this one has Tua, Tyreek, Jaylen, Wilson, CMC and Deebo. (Schefter says he’s playing and Rappaport says he a game-timer) A true road test for a Fins team that likely doesn’t know just how good they are yet.

Chiefs/Bengals:

Do you get the feeling that this won’t be the last time we’ll see these guys play this year? You know, just like last year. Cincy, despite the okay-ish record has defended their home turf with just one loss there. This has ‘epic tilt’ written all over it.

Chargers/Raiders:

Well, which Vegas team is going to show up this week-the one that has won two straight despite giving up 50 points or the one that lost 24-0 to the Saints? Jacobs should do just fine once again vs a Chargers team that couldn’t stop a toddler on a trike peddling up the middle. And you know Adams will get his. I can see Herbert letting fly all game long so maybe finally we’ll get to the fireworks factory?

Do as thou wilt.
