    They moved about a foot, when what they need is several miles.

    If you bet $50 both sides.....you could at least break even.

    1. Well the Bengals bungle...so tonight's loss was expected.
    2. And well they may just lose next week to a 'motivated to screw over the Texans' Ryan Mallett...
    3. Colts most likely will win, but who is their starting QB? Luck?
    4. Jaguars arent going to be easy...eventhough we play at home...They can score and in bunches...
    5. Falcons are out of the playoffs, and well Brees does play well in domes...but I would expect Atlanta to win at home...since the Saints are trying to work out a better draft position
    6. Dont think the Chargers are trying to win against a team look to maintain a bye week...
    7. No playoffs for Rex Ryan...and if you think he wants his old team to be in...lol. Bills will be amped up at home
    8. Dolphins play the Patriots very well at home...the score will be close
    9. Steelers playing for their lives...against a hapless Browns team on the road.
    10. Derek Carr playing against a very hot team, that may just not play any of their starters...

    Wow if all of this happens...man I dont even know what to say...I do predict that at least 6 of these things will happen...

    That's not how it works, and it's not even applicable to a parlay. :grin:

    with the chance to win $150K! Come on, wouldn't it be so Texans for all these improbabilities to happen? The fact that I'm even thinking this way shows what a cursed sports city Houston is

    Can anybody with expertise tell me how badly this cincy loss could potentially hurt our playoff chances?

    Pats will win against the fish... They want Home field advantage through out the playoffs... So they have lots of motivation.

    doomed by Kubiak and Owen Daniels

    Next, Mallet, then Carr, then Brooks Reed, then Earl Mitchell, then Wade Philips, then Cierre Woods, and finally Chris Boswell.

    We're doomed!

    Took the initial odds from the espn article and changed the Broncos def Bengals odds to 100% to get the new odds.

    The colts went from a 0.03% to 0.06% for winning the division.

    If you were to run these odds a 1000 times the Colts would make the playoffs 6 out of 1000 times.

    STOP FREAKING OUT PEOPLE WE MADE THE PLAYOFFS

    Patriots won't lose to the Dolphins. They need to win. And the Dolphins have completely mailed it in.

    This.

    Yes, we PROBABLY will make the playoffs. But we haven't actually MADE them yet. So don't say that we already did when that is objectively not the case.

    I almost want it to happen just to laugh like hell. Let's be real here, the Texans aren't going to the Super Bowl, much less win it. This would be one of the most epic comebacks in NFL history. Probably won't happen, but I wouldn't even be mad.

    I can't imagine a scenario where the Texans don't win the Super Bowl

    it means if you were to run it 10,000 times they would make the playoffs 6 times
