Default Who to root for week 14

Now is the time when more folks start paying attention to this.....

Patriots (9-3) at Redskins (4-8) 1:00PM ET,

I assume you know why.


Browns (4-8) at Steelers (9-3) Thur. 8:20PM ET,

We need the Steelers to lose one of their games if we want the #1 seed.


Colts (0-12) at Ravens (9-3) 1:00PM ET,

Same deal with the Ravens. For NE to get the #1 seed Both the Raven and Steelers need to lose at least one game each.


Texans (9-3) at Bengals (7-5) 1:00PM ET

We can probably get by the Texans on SoV. But still root against them, anyway. As a bonus, a Bengals win will end the Fish's season (even if the Fish win.)


Chiefs (5-7) at Jets (7-5) 1:00PM ET,

If NE & the Chiefs win...NE clinches the Division. Hats and Tee shirts!!!!!


Saints (9-3) at Titans (7-5) 1:00PM ET,

We have the Saint's first round pick.


Falcons (7-5) at Panthers (4-8) 1:00PM ET,

Falcons are our only hope to deny the Saint's the NFCS.


Raiders (7-5) at Packers (12-0) 1:00PM ET

It is in the team's best interest for the Raiders to lose, because of the second round pick. However, if you have the mindset of Mercury Morris you will be rooting for the Raiders.


Bears (7-5) at Broncos (7-5) 4:05PM ET,

We want the Broncos not Oakland to win the AFCW.


Eagles (4-8) at Dolphins (4-8) 1:00PM ET,

We might have the Eagles' 7th.


Bills (5-7) at Chargers (5-7) 4:15PM ET,

Bills are a divsion rival. Plus nothing good (for NE) can come about if Norv get fired.


49ers (10-2) at Cardinals (5-7) 4:05PM ET,

Keep the Saint's from getting a bye.


Buccaneers (4-8) at Jaguars (3-9) 1:00PM ET,
Vikings (2-10) at Lions (7-5) 1:00PM ET,
Rams (2-10) at Seahawks (5-7) Mon 8:30PM ET,

Marginal reason at best but lower the value of the Dolphin pick.


Giants (6-6) at Cowboys (7-5) SNF 8:20PM ET,

No Patriot interest in this game that I can determine.

A Bengals win will also make the Jets work for the #6 seed......and for the same reason,you also want to see the Broncos and Raiders continue to win as well.(except for next week for Denver,of course)

Is a higher draft pick and hoping the Raiders lose really better than the Jets missing the playoffs?

Yup. I don't exactly fear the Jets in the playoffs. Beating them 3 times in one season would be great, we have never done that to them before.

Actually, from a SOV standpoint:

Eagles v. LOLphins—If the Pats beat the LOLphins in the rematch, a LOLphin win helps the Pats more than an Iggles win.
Bucs v. JAGs—A Bucs win hurts the Texans' SOV.
Giants v. Cowgirls—Pats beat Cowgirls, lost to Giants, so a Cowgirls win helps with SOV.

Well that is just extremely naive.

Root against the Packers... I don't care about the 2nd rounder as much as I care about the Packers not beating out the Pat's 2007 season.

I don't care what the Packers do in the regular season, as long as the Pats beat them in the Superbowl.....

I thoroughly enjoy this weekly exercise but I'm not sure the #1 seed is all it's cracked up to be this time around and I'm not sure I want to be subjected to Tebowmania in the playoffs when Carson Palmer is there for the picking so to speak...

I'm more interested in Pats winning out rest of regular season. We can't control what others do, but if we win out No 1 seed is a real possibility. I don't like wanting to play a specific team because it's'da ole "be careful what you wish for" with that said if there is losses by Ravens & Steelers that would help. As for Jets A loss would be sweet just'da fact of putting them 1 game closer to being eliminated from PO.
