the playoff bye is super important beyond just a pass to the next round

seeds 2 and 3 are on the other side of the bracket

do you want to have to beat Tampa and then GB, or, the winner of Tampa and GB?

Heh my ancestors said screw this wet Britain place and went to the swamps of the Carolinas.
Hot places aren't all they are cracked up to be. I can put on more layers but it sucks when its too hot.

We do sometimes get too hot so I know it can suck too. But give me too hot over too cold any day!

I want to hibernate when it's this cold so I end up like a hermit. At least when it's too hot I can be outside enjoying the outdoors.

I can't believe 3 of the "experts" picked the Bears.

The highest temp ever recorded in GB 101F.

You won't be out long 'enjoying' the outdoors at 115F.

Two things I really want to see coming out of the bye.

1. A much bigger role for Zaven Collins. Can't have both ILB's playing 100% of snaps. That's a recipe for injury or exhaustion and a waste of Collins.

2. A more expansive route tree for Rondale Moore. The short stuff is nice and can be useful but it can't just be ALL that.

1000%

Plus honestly that's 2 weeks of practice and/ or healing ( which we all know they'll need )

PLUUUUSSS, how dramatic would it be to have JJ Watt practicing to play in the rd. 2 game.

I would be hilarious to me that just as they fix the depth chart on their website, they move Collins in to a bigger role.

I like this site that collects all the "expert" picks for each game. Right now AZ has a 96% consensus.
