I think at least 2 of 3 teams could lose this weekend (Jets, Dolphins, Ravens)

[JSn]

I don't think so. The Pats would still have a shot if they won in Buffalo and Baltimore lost against Jacksonville the final week of the season. The Pats would get the second Wild Card in that scenario. The Pats and the winner between Dolphins and the Jets would be 10-6 and the loser and Baltimore would be 9-7. The winner of the Dolphins/Jets game would win the division and the Pats would be the second Wild Card (assuming Indy wins at least one of the next two).

That's what I was thinking. The pressure on the Ravens is huge and their games aren't gimmies. Imagine the Colts crumbling the next two weeks? That would be pure joy.

Is anyone else almost feeling a little shocked there are only two weeks of the regular season left?

Man, that would be heaven. seeing more of this:

I don't hold out much hope that either the Jets or Dolphins lose this weekend, but I do think there's a decent chance that Colts lose tonight, and Ravens lose to the Cowboys.

Jax are not a good team, but it's a rivalry game, and they've been at least competitive in all but one of their home games this year. Jones-Drew (and now Chauncey Washington) has to come up huge. I don't see Indy losing to Tenn in week 17, but it's never a bad thing to put another iron in the fire.

I'm not worried about the Jets, Dolphins, Ravens losing. I'm more worried about the Seahawks, Chiefs, and Cowboys pulling a Buffalo and not winning.

I'm banking on a Ravens loss this Saturday, and a Patriots win this Sunday. As for the Colts, Dolphins, and Jets losing, I'm hoping for it but not banking on it.

I actually think the Seahawks have a pretty good chance of winning against the Jets. The Jets lost to the Raiders on the West Coast. I don't know why the Seahawks couldn't pull off an upset this weekend considering the Jets' are playing horribly on both sides of the ball. Favre is in a funk. With Jenkins injured, the defense can't even stop the run on top of stopping the pass. The Seahawks seem to be getting their act together on offense. We heard how loud their stadium could be even with them out of it.

If I was to pick an upset special, it would be the Seahawks over the Jets. Everything seems to be working against the Jets in this one.

I would agree with you with the Seahawks and Cowboys, but I don't know if the Chiefs can make the game competitive enough to blow it at the end.

Nightmare scenario: Ravens, Jets, Dolphins, and Patriots all lose this weekend.

My nightmare is everyone winning out, I'd prefer the Patriots to lose having had the chance than to go 11-5 and not make the playoffs.

No, for me I'd feel a lot better if we went 5-1 down the stretch, which so many were saying was almost impossible, even we then lose out on tiebreakers. It would be much worse to have had a shot at the playoffs in the last 6 weeks and blow it.

Re: I think at least 2 of 3 teams could lose this weekend (Jets,Dolphins,Ravens)

It'd be great to win the division but if I had to pick only one team to lose this week I'd choose the Ravens. If only one of the Jets or Dolphins lose then that has to be the team that wins in week 17 and statistically speaking that's a tall order.

I think a trifecta would make me cry

Yup, We'll probably do what we do best on the West Coast:

Suck Balls!

Seattle will win that game IMHO.

In all honesty, I think the Patriots have a greater chance of losing this weekend than the Dolphins do.

You say the Chiefs will be pumped after their 4th quarter loss last week, well, I think the Cards will be equally motivated to erase the memory of last week.

The Cards will forget the run game and throw all day long against the Patriots improving, but still flawed secondary.

in the cold and snow rain??? coming east??? I do not think it will be that easy for them...

Indy may be without Harrison, Sanders and Addai....interesting...

I agree with everyone/anyone who believes that the Jets and Ravens lose this weekend but the Phins end up winning.

Then I think the Phins lose to the Jets while the Pats win out giving the Pats the division title!

Notable factor for Dolphins-Chiefs game.
While temps are climbing to a balmy 30 the next 2 days, on Sunday the high is going to be just 8 degrees in Kansas City. Not inviting for the team from South Florida.

I don't think it will bother them too much. The QB's been playing in New York for a while and the team is built on the premise of protecting the ball and being stifling on defense (ish). I think the only game changer is a bus from cliche town: "any given sunday".
