    Somebody clarify the scenario. What’s the logic here. If we win a 8-9 tiebreaker with jags, why wouldn’t we be trying to win tonight? We’re going to look stupid if the Texans beat the jags Sunday.

    Under your scenario, if the Jaguars won to get to 8-9 against the Titans, they would win tiebreaker over the 8-9 Titans due to sweeping the season series. Even if Titans lose and Jags win this week, if the Titans beat Jags in week 18, the Titans win tiebreaker due to better division record (4-2 vs. 3-3).

    All a win this week does is allow titans to win division in the event of a tie in week 18

    The 8-9 tiebreaker over the Jags only works if the titans win week 18 against them.

    beating Dallas but losing to Jax and Jax losing to Houston but winning week 18 would change the 8-9 tiebreaker to Jax favor.

    Damn man the most exciting thing about the end of the dumpster fire of a season was seeing if big derrick dub deisel could be leading rusher for 3/4 years. Now we probably won't even get that and the raiders are imploding.

    I read Jacobs is pretty pissed in LV. Henry is 110 back. If he doesn’t play at all, even if Jacobs doesn’t play, that’s a tough hill to cover in Jax. He can do it, but I think he needs 2 no-go from Jacobs.

    Same with the post season last year. Not a firm believer in the resting business and players seem to look at a bye differently than not playing in a scheduled game.
