Packers season over, that’s too bad.

Commanders win we play them.  Bucs win we either get the Vikings back to back or another stafford game.

I expect the Eagles to play better next week. 

If they don't, they'll lose. Whether it's the Bucs, Rams, or Vikings, they need to play better on offense if they expect to advance.

Jalen Hurts is a liability at QB.

I believe that they put the Monday Night wildcard winner in the Sunday Night divisional round game, so I think this is correct.

Eagles vs. Rams/Vikings would likely be the Sunday 4 PM game, and Bills/Ravens would be Sunday night. The Lions and Chiefs would be Saturday.

I'll root for the Commies. I'd prefer to play them next week at this point.

Agreed. Vikings/Rams winner would play Philly, and hopefully beat them. But the Eagles, at home, weren't that impressive today. The Lions could beat them.

I agree. If I was a betting man, I think Chiefs/Texans is a 4pm game and Bills/Ravens is an 8pm game.

If the Commies win, it would put Lions/Commies on Saturday at 8pm (Chiefs/Texans 4pm Saturday, Eagles/Rams-Vikings 4pm Sunday, Ravens/Bills 8pm Sunday).

If the Bucs win, Lions/Rams is an 8pm Sunday game, bumping Ravens/Bills to 8pm Saturday and Chiefs/Texans to 4pm Sunday, Eagles/Bucs to 4pm Saturday... Lions/Vikings I'm not so sure. That might get 4pm Sunday, with Eagles/Bucs taking 8pm Sunday.

on edit, I'm not so sure about Lions/Commies either. It's probably an 8pm game, but they might like Eagles/Rams more.

How is Dan Quinn an NFL head coach?

He has the option of kicking off at the 50, where a pooch kick will pin them deep, or a squib will put them at the 20. Instead, he says "give me a 26-yard extra point instead of a 33-yard extra point."

They had the name Red Hogs there for the taking and chose Commanders instead. Unfortunate shortenings is what they deserve.

Commanders is lame-ish as a name but a lot of contending names were just as lame.  Red Tails (for the Tuskegee Airmen) would have been weird and led to a lot of unfortunateness.   I really liked Washington Team Football as a name.  

Still, its not my football tradition.  I've sat in amongst a lot of people who really are angry about losing the Redskins name where they cite the Seminoles or other tribal names for Native American teams that seem to work.  I will sometimes try to spin it back on them with sarcasm about skin color being a bad basis for team naming.   It gets political of course.

A big 3rd and 9 run  by Mayfield extended a drive for Tampa when stil! In their own territory, and now they’ve gone down and tied it at 10-10 going into halftime. If the Commanders had made that stop they would have got the ball back up 10-3 with a minute to go and a good chance to take on a field goal.

I go back to the days of the Hogs. There really were not a lot of good names floated if I recall. I think Red Hawks might be the best choice, but I kinda like RedHogs.

Leave it to Kliff Kingsbury to see both starting corners get knocked out in an already bad Tampa secondary and start calling a steady diet of screens and draws.

On cue!! 1st and Goal from the 1.
