Dieselboy's Week 17 NFL Wrap-up

[maidenvoyage]

The Bears aren't even in the top 5? A travesty! An outrage, I tell ya!

Unfortunately, the way they've been sleepwalking through the last month of the season it's a well deserved travesty and outrage.

I don't think the Jets are content with making the playoffs, but I also don't think they're very good. Therefore, all my non-thinking leads me to believe the Patriots will underachieve and still win in a squeaker.

I couldn't believe how bad they looked on Sunday. Mostly, Rex Grossman.

If he plays like that in the first half of their first game, will they pull him?

For who? Did you see Griese in the second half. He was equally awful.

I did. That is my point.

Bring in Kyle Orton.

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

The Chiefs were unable to stop the Colts offense and started onside kicking before the 4th quarter, right?

It is more than shocking — it's a miracle. Not one person could have guessed that all three teams that we needed to lose would have lost — at home, no less! Simply amazing.

I remember all too well the last time the Chiefs and Colts hooked up in the playoffs in 2004. That was such a demoralizing game to watch as a Chiefs fan. All we needed to do was force one punt! ONE! Our offense was amazing that year, but our defense was perhaps one of the worst ever.

Since then, our defense has improved dramatically, even though it is still just mediocre. I think (hope) that will be enough this year.

Nice work as always, Diesel. Should be a fun Wildcard Weekend.

These are your worst rankings of the whole year. Good read as always though.
