Cardinals Rams should be close.  It normally is. It can't be the Patriots every year!

Ah Jeez Az, take DJ of that cardinals roster and they're very average , definitely on the downward slide. And the Rams? Seriously, a complete f**king mess, really no other way to describe them..
Somebody like the Packers v Giants or the Cowboys v Steelers or the Pats v Jets etc...

But the game should be close. I'm not saying the Cards are an elite team at the moment but with Fitz, Johnson, Jones, Matthieu, Peterson, Buchanan etc, they still should be better than they are this year, and I'd hope they'll be better next year. The NFL is a week to week/ year to year deal so it's a bit disingenuous to predict next season. God knows I watched enough shite Cardinal football to be able to sit through a game in London though. I can't wait. It's 2000 since I saw them live. If you've lived through Kent Graham 'inspired' teams, this is a golden age for us 😀

AZ, you're choosing to see the Cards over the Browns?  I'm shocked.  Show up to Twickenham early enough and you may start as QB for the Browns.

Probably lost #1 draft pick in the process !

Humiliation for the Chargers. 5000 miles away and red faced.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Bad looking injury for Carr  :'(

Edit : broken leg

Pencil the Pats in as the AFC rep for the SuperBowl

I was pencilling in the Pats anyway.  First time all season the Cards show a bit of guts and fight. Too little too late but still good to see.

Tyler Lockett made one of the ballsiest plays I've seen holding a catch whilst being his leg broken. Seahawks let him down and couldn't get in from the 1.

patriots will be in the Super Bowl so it will have to be an nfc team to beat them don't see any afc team touching them , the Cowboys might be a year early for them the Giants have a great record against them but it will be hard for them to get there,  the packers or Seattle could definitely beat them if they got to the Super Bowl.

Think the Steelers would have a punchers chance against them with their O

On their current trajectory, the Packers have all the tools to beat the Patriots.  Rodgers has been phenomenal of late and while their D will give up yards, they're becoming increasingly opportunistic and will turn over enough ball to give Monsignor Brady plenty to think about.

BAL-PIT had some 4th quarter. Brown and Bell are unstoppable.
