I am great. Jets won the week. Jets didn't have to buy. Michigan's brand has banged up a little bit right now. But I am... On the field looks good. Yeah, it does.

As Michigan State was running in the plays, not signaling them in, and Michigan still won 49-0. Flashbacks to my high school days. I feel really good about everything going on. Great. So, shall we?

Let's do it. Hit it. That was terrible. That was crap. That was garbage. This place sucks. Overreaction Mondays, Monday. All right, Christopher, what do you have over there?

Rich, let's just get started right away. You saw it last night on Sunday Night Football. The Eagles are the best team in the NFL right now. I would say that's an overreaction. The Eagles being the best team in the NFL right now is a complete overreaction. Are they one of the best teams in the NFL right now?

I can say, yes, that is the case. They may be the best team in the NFL in the trenches. You can say that. They're the best team in the trenches right now with their brotherly shove on offense and then what they're doing defensively. That was a very unbrotherly-like shove that Jalen Carter delivered to Isaiah Wynn on Sunday night to essentially knock him out of the game.

Big man on big man crime. And caused the Dolphins to have some protection problems maybe up front right off the bat. But the best team in the NFL right now, top to bottom, 100% after what we saw. This is an overreaction for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Really? You didn't love the way they ran the football? I did. Did they have, could you say, other than Tyree Kill, the best deep threat in the NFL and AJ Brown? You even said in the overreaction Monday 7 version, you even said that AJ Brown is the best wide receiver in the NFL and I said you can't, that's not an overreaction. I said it's an argument, not an overreaction.

So it's an argument. This is an overreaction though, that the Eagles are the best team in the NFL right now. Who do you think is the best team in the NFL right now? If I had to choose one right now, I'd take the Chiefs. Chiefs, Eagles, Super Bowl rematch, who wins? Chiefs.

Really? Right now. I don't think they have enough on offense to keep up with the Eagles. I think they have enough on defense to make sure. I don't think the Eagles have enough on offense right now.

So it's a totally different set of dynamics if they face one another. And then there's the 49ers out there too. And the Ravens are raising their hands and saying, what's up? So for the moment I'll say this is an overreaction to kick things off on this week's 7 pod. All right, great.

Maybe you'll agree with me here then. By starting Brian Hoyer and then getting blown out at Chicago, embarrassing, Josh McDaniel's boom, hot seat. You're on it. Oh, I think he is officially on the hot seat.

I would agree with that assessment. Certainly, if at this point in time the Raiders are hearing more from Devante Adams behind the scenes. He got his 11 targets. He did, but he's got to be out there saying, I came here to play with Derek Carr.

And right now I've caught passes from three quarterbacks through six games. That's not what he signed up for. He didn't sign up for having all these targets and them being basically empty calories.

He didn't sign up for that. Max Crosby, we had Chris Long on Monday show in his usual spot from the green light pod. And he's like, I've been there before with Max Crosby. Where you're looking around saying, what more can I do?

And there's not much more that I can do. Being a primary pass rusher on a team that's struggling to win. And then they got the Lions coming up next. The Lions got blown out.

I'm sure you got something special for me on that front in this podcast. They've got the Lions coming up next and they would love to bury the tape and turn the page and make a mincemeat out of the Raiders here. So, yeah, man.

What do you make of this Raiders season? It's kind of been all over the place. It's not lost yet. That's for sure. Not lost.

No. They're still in the four and then that's on the periphery. They're still in the hunt for a seven. They're sniffing it.

Sniffing it. As we're going to start to call the in the hunt category on our standings pages on the Rich Eisen show as we call it that. So, yeah, I don't know why they started Hoyer. That I don't understand. All those snaps that Hoyer took.

Right? That's what I'm saying. This is the game that you put Aidan O'Connell out there. And if you come up with a loss, at least he gets the reps. He gets the juices flowing.

He gets the sweat equity. I mean, he's proved he can play. Aidan O'Connell, great preseason. Didn't get a start over in the year.

Kind of struggled, but it was his first career start. What do you expect? I mean, for Hoyer to basically throw a pick six and lose to Tyson Bajant, the Bears use their division two rookie and get the win. And he uses his longtime veteran by sitting his rookie and getting the loss. That is definitely a button push that everyone then turns up the heat on the hot seat. Honestly, to me, this feels like it's not an overreaction to Mark Davis. He's the only opinion that counts. Perhaps he's just like, no, I signed McDaniels to do all this Patriot stuff west.

And I'll trust the process. Right now, it's not working out. Man, it hasn't worked out last year or the start of this year. Okay, the four, one in five teams all won yesterday. One of these teams being the New York Giants.

They probably should have beat Buffalo too. They should just start Tyrod Taylor the rest of the year. That's not happening. That's not happening. Gives them a better chance to win games. Tyrod Taylor out there slinging around, veteran leadership, not afraid, doesn't look scared in the big moment. I cannot. If you were to say the Giants look better with Tyrod Taylor as the starting quarterback, I would say that's not an overreaction.

I combined them. I know this giant should start Tyrod Taylor for the rest of the season over the guy they're paying $40 million to play football. Nah, Daniel Jones played a half of football in Arizona that stands out from amongst the rest of the track. And that's worth $40 million? I'm not saying it's worth $40 million. I'm saying he played a half of football this year in Arizona that stands out from the rest of the track.

Okay, and for those who don't know Yiddish, go and look that up. Yeah, man. So, they're paying him $40 million. You're going to play him.

And he does have a skill set that has a higher ceiling than what Tyrod Taylor is showing. Potentially. Overreaction. What else you got?

I mean, come on. What else you got? What else you got? I think they should trade Saquon. Sometimes you try to Aaron Rodgers manifest your opinions into being reality. Do you think they should trade Saquon? No, I don't. Why?

I don't think so. Because they need him. He's their best player on offense. This season is going nowhere.

So what? You still need him for down the road. He's still a guy that you can start winning games with over the next two, three years. If you do get it right at the quarterback spot, let's just say he's banged up, he's hurt, and he doesn't play as much this year. And you wind up with three or four wins and you go and you get the third, fourth, fifth overall pick in this draft. Right? And then you bring in Drake May, you bring in somebody at the top of the draft at the quarterback spot who sits behind David.

He sits behind. Danny times. Danny times. Right.

So then, yeah, having Saquon there would be quite helpful. Don't you think? I tripped over Danny James name. Those are great giants uniforms. Thank you. Rich Eisen here.

When my family found out how long it took me to figure out why Charles Woodson named his wine intercept, they said, there's a reason that you had trouble in school. You know, not everyone knows, you know, what they think about intercepting. They don't know that I play football.

Well, what I've learned is a smooth defensive back can make smooth wine. That's what it's all about. What the football with Susie Schuster and Amy Trask.

The podcast is available Tuesdays wherever you listen. Oh, yeah. He's getting it done.

I'll buy two sacks. He blocked a field goal yesterday by leaping over the long snapper, which normally people don't. Can you cue up this soundbite, please?

It's my favorite soundbite of the weekend. We played it on the on the regular show. So that play where he leapt over the long snap, dude, that was crazy. Now, it does appear that those are the hops that follow the crossover dribble that he's been practicing on defense, standing over the opposing regular center. Clips have gone viral of him playing basketball. He is a really good basketball. He's like 6'6", like 280.

I know. He shouldn't have hops like that. He might play for the Cavs, right?

They need him. So this is Miles Garrett. He was asked why he did it and was able to do it without the 15 yard penalty of leverage. Basically, if you're jumping over the long snapper and any part of your body touches his, it's a 15 yard penalty. That's why people don't attempt it. Or when they do it, they get a leverage penalty.

He was asked why he was able to do it without getting a leverage penalty when most everybody else gets flagged for it. It depends if you're me or not. Sorry if I'm you, it's not that hard.

If you're me, it's another day at the office. And now, somebody says that and can get away with it, except he can. It's just like, yeah, you're right. So I'll agree with you. This is not an overreaction.

It's his to lose. The only reason why I don't think people would buy it is because a defensive player of the year has to come from a playoff contending and team with a winning record and their quarterback spot right now is too iffy for you to buy into the fact that he's in the pole position. It's got nothing to do with his play. I say it's got to do with normally what a defensive player of the year winner has surrounding him in terms of a winning team, in terms of a winning record.

And I know they're foreign too. I understand. I'm sounding like rich. What can they do other than win for their first six?

So that's the only reason why I think people aren't buying him, but I'll buy into that as, as not an overreaction. Okay. Last one before halftime.

Yes, sir. You're going to love it. The bills are missing the playoffs.

The bills are missing the playoffs, baby. Why would I love that? Why would I love that? Because it's hot.

It's spicy. You're going to say it's an overreaction, but watch the tape people. What is going on with the bills? I'm going to say it's an overreaction. What is going on with the bills? I don't know. That's the problem.

No one can pinpoint it. You can't sit here and say, Josh Allen's turning the ball over too much. You can't say Josh Allen is doing too much in the red zone.

That's their, their, their settling for three. You can't sit here and say the defense has lost too many players because they are giving up too many points. They have lost too many players, but they're not giving up too many points. You know, you, you, you can't sit here and say it's because their special teams are terrible. They do, you know, they're, they're not perfect.

It just happens. They get a miss kick when everything else is working right. When everything else isn't working right, they have to settle for the good kick. And then sometimes the kick isn't there when they have to settle.

Honestly, you, you, I don't know. I saw them in person in London and I thought their first half troubles were because Matt Milano goes out. Daquan Jones goes out, right?

They're also jet lagged. And, and so the energy goes and dips down and suddenly, you know, they played well towards the end to try and maybe win that thing. And that loss to the Jaguars may come home to roost if they do win this division eventually because don't forget they, they have beaten Miami. So they have an opportunity to still make a run and not have Jacksonville put that tie break on the table to say, you've got to come to us in a divisional round or even a wild card round, if it is something where they don't win the division. So, yeah, I, I have to sit here and say that, that the bills are in trouble, but missing the playoffs entirely. You, you can't say that, I don't know, throw up their schedule.

Cause it's really hard. Buffalo's next game is their home for Tampa on a Thursday night. So that's coming up in just a few short days and Tampa's offense after winning three of their first four is falling off a cliff. Yep.

All right. So, and they're the ones that were at home on a short week. They're at Cincinnati on a Sunday night. Now that's a big one, but Cincinnati is, you know, hasn't been lighting any fires either.

Yeah. Last couple of games though. Looks like they're getting their groove back home for Denver on a Monday night, then they're home for the jets at Philadelphia by at Kansas city home for Dallas. That is a four game stretch. That's a brutal stretch, but missing the playoffs entirely because what, uh, another team, multiple teams from the AFC North are going to make it and the jets leapfrogs them because that's the way that they don't make it. They don't want the division.

And then a host of teams from the AFC North may get, it looks likely, it looks like they're going to get maybe three and then maybe the jets start winning some games to put their tie break on the table or against the bills. I wanted to bring this up on the big show. We didn't have time. I didn't want to ruin your flow, but it's definitely an overreaction. However, Josh Allen, a little overrated. No, I, I, I think right now, again, um, I love Gabe Davis.

Right. But what, who else outside of digs is, is scaring you? Nobody.

Finally had kind of a big game. Who else out of those guys? Scaring you? James Cook scaring you.

Nobody. David Murray is hurt. Nope.

You know, maybe there's a team that needs to make a big trade. That's what I was talking about on the show. Yeah. So we have reached halftime and you could get tickets for overreaction Monday, halftime through game time.

What do you have over there, Christopher? Second half, Rich, the other marquee game on Sunday, lions, Ravens beat down the lion showed us who they really are on Sunday and no, they didn't. No, they didn't. No, that's who the lions are right there, 38 to six. Come on, man. They have been dynamic since the middle of last season dynamic and had they won on Sunday against Baltimore, it would have given them 11 wins since week 12 last year, matching the Jacksonville Jaguars, by the way, but they lost in Baltimore in absolute embarrassing fashion if you want to use that word, disgrace is a favorite word, 28 nothing before they got a first down sports shows.

It's lexicon. It was, they were down 28 nothing. He gave up four touchdowns before they got their first first down. They got totally blown out with that coach and the way they had been playing. Don't you think they would have been a little more amped up and ready to go? I would think that they would have given Baltimore a better game, of course, but these things, as we know, happen, you know, the Jets once lost 45 to three to New England, they buried the tape, they came back and beat him in the playoffs.

Just a, for example, from our team's histories, so, you know, I, again, I will just chalk this up to it happens, you know, ish happens. And this team, I think, missed David Montgomery. And for me, I would sit here if I was Brad Holmes and the rest of the staff there shopping for the groceries, I would look around for another, you know, running back who's got, as they say, sand in his pants like Montgomery, because if Montgomery goes down and you got to face a team with his starter front seven, as they just wilted against in Baltimore, say in the playoffs, you got Dallas, you got San Francisco, you got Philadelphia. You need to make sure it's not just Montgomery. It's someone else too. I don't know who that person is.

I would start scouring around. That's who I would look to see if I was the lion, if I were the lions right now. But I think they get back on their winning ways Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders. That is a nice one for them as a get right opportunity. They're here against the Chargers.

Let's see how that happens. You know, because I know the interesting thing about the Chargers is you can look at them as highly disappointing, but they're always used when you look at everybody else's schedule. That's a tough game because it's Justin Herbert, it's Keenan Allen and it's Joey Bosa and it's Khalil Mack and it's Derwin James, except they keep losing those guys. Yep.

Four out of six. So they should win that one. They're home for Chicago. There's Thanksgiving against Green Bay. They're at New Orleans. They're at Chicago again, home for Denver, two games against Minnesota, sandwiched around a trip to Dallas. The one thing about the lions is, as you saw, they might not be as good on the road outdoors, although they just won in Tampa and it wasn't that cold of a day, but they're kind of built for indoors. And every game I just said, with the exception of out Chicago is indoors, so I'm not concerned about them. They didn't really show us who they really are in Baltimore.

Personally. I think they showed them who you really, they really are in Tampa. And these things happen like they did to them in Baltimore.

That's my two cents overreaction. What else you got? Other side of that game? Yes, sir. Ravens. Yeah. Well, great. That's legit Superbowl contenders.

Hell yeah, hell yeah. This is exactly right. We said in the regular show, in our three hour show on Monday, Rick Dalton, Jeff, that's that you pointed the screen like that's it. That Ravens offensive output where they ran it, not as well as they threw it. And they threw it to a whole bunch of all running backs and other receivers, not everyone involved. Correct.

Lamar extended plays and through for touchdowns and then extended some plays with his legs just to take your will every now and then that's the Lamar Jackson. They want to have out there and also staying healthy and let the defense do the rest. They can keep my homes off the field.

They can chase my homes around. They can bracket Kelsey and say, who else is going to beat us? They can do that. And their special teams, as we all know, is very special. That's for sure.

That's not an overreaction. Saw a lot of Lamar MVP talk today on the drive in. I think it's legit.

It's legit. It's just, he's not doing things like he did in his MVP season, which is running for 75 yards and then throwing bombs for 60. Like he's not doing that. He's doing everything else in a much more controlled, if you will, schemed up manner. And I saw that in London too. And I saw the way he is.

He's just, he's still himself. We had fun chatting with him when he said that he bought his mom in London a Chanel bag, but he was going to return it because it was really expensive. And we kind of basically said, Lamar, look at your bottom line. It's funny. You can throw the receipt out.

Just give it to your mom. I mean, we didn't say, plus if she was your agent, she's kind of crushed it. She's kind of done the job. So yeah, take them seriously. I agree. What else? Here's who we're not taking seriously.

Uh-oh. Bears chargers week eight, Sunday night football. How did this game not get flexed bears chargers, Brandon Staley coaching for his job on Sunday night football.

I don't know if he's coaching for his job. I don't know. You just mentioned previously all the great players. They have all the talented players.

We see it with our own eyes. They got tons of players in fantasy, defensive player of the year candidates. How do they lose these games? I don't know. Is Tyson badging going to come in to sofi and give Brandon stay with the pink slip.

I'll tell you what, man. The first game in sofi remembers bears Rams and you remember how loud the bears fans were. So I think it's going to be another silent snap count night for Justin Herbert. And if you're the, again, I just don't know if the spanos is look around and say we're two and five and then what the Kelly it's interim head coach, Kellen Moore, Kellen Moore, good Kellen Moore, the rest of the season audition for the job. I can't imagine they do that.

I just can't. This guy's supposed to be a defensive coach. Why is Kelsey so wide open? Why are you playing zone against the chiefs if they didn't can him after that playoff game last year, then how do they turn around in the middle of this season through seven games with 10 more to go ax him for Kellen Moore or two and five losing at home on national television to the bears. Who's playing a backup. I think he's coaching for his job. I think he's coaching maybe for the locker room. I don't know.

But again, I shouldn't say that. I don't, I don't, I don't have any, you know, firsthand knowledge inside of what's going on in that locker room or if he's got people sort of looking aside at him, this one game against the chiefs. The only thing was that, you know, kind of made you follow your brow and go, what the hell's going on there is the fact that wide open Kelsey was wide open. There wasn't one of those fourth down strange thing, 140 hours in the first half. I know you're over your, your what's more likely is weird plays that are inexplicable for the charges or, you know, Taylor Swift cutaways and as predicted Taylor Swift cutaways a one in a blowout. So I I'll just say this is an overreaction coaching for his job in week eight.

I don't think that's the case fair. What's more likely, more likely their coach next year, Josh McDaniels, Brandon Staley. I don't know their contracts off the top of my head. I'll go, I'll Joe Josh McDaniels, cause I don't think the Raiders are, are gonna, they're all in, they're all in on the Patriots West thing, man.

And in him, you trust, I don't know if I had a guess, I would go with that. Brady going to be part of them soon, right? We'll see.

All right. Let's finish up with a two AFC East related teams here. Patriots fans should be more upset at the reported Belicheck contract extension than the win on Sunday.

And I know I was pretty upset at the way more upset at the contract extension. If you want to use overreaction Monday, real estate, it's a good psyche prefer to let me just pay for your sports psychologist. Yeah.

You know what I mean? Like, let's just keep it. Let's just keep it.

We might have to do that home. Keep that sports psychology psychosis off our podcast airwaves, because right now this right at the bottom here, that Patriots fans should be more upset at the reported Belicheck extension than the win over Buffalo means you. I think you're in the extreme minority that you're upset that they beat the bill. No way. Absolutely not. 70,000 at Gillette yesterday. There's no way. In the minority.

69% nice. We're, we're, we're, we're mad at that. Come on. Really? Yes.

Do you know any Pats fans who are glad they beat the bills yesterday? Um, I haven't spoken to the end cause. How's Cooper doing? He's psyched. Why does he understand? He's 12 and he's got a better outlook than you do. He does. He's a 12 year old and you're a child. He does.

He's a man compared to you. I feel like I'm, I'm a Godfather. Come on. The bills. You could have been one in six, two 99 and the bills move on.

And then you are crazy training for nothing in front of rainbow, wearing a red jacket. Come on, man. You want the bills to walk out of there, staring into the best saying what's happening in our season. I want a moral victory.

I wanted us to fight. We played hard. Mac played well. Didn't turn the ball over. He made some throws and then Josh Allen come back win.

Okay, great. We played well. We take, we carry that a little bit and then we go three and 14 and take someone else. Get out of here. Bill is there and you are lucky to have bill Belicheck as part of your organization, sir.

Now, if you want someone else shopping for the groceries, then you tell Bob craft to tell him that. But the fact that he signed longterm, honestly, let Jared, let Jared Mayo, just, you know, draw mail, learn more from the master here before he's ready to hand it off. Because at this point in time, that's a w let's go out of Miami and win another one. Fine.

The wind not withstanding. How should fans react to the, to that news of the extension? Well, if you think he's lost it, you should be upset. I don't think he's lost it.

He's lost it as an, a talent evaluator and a picker of the groceries though. Um, maybe you can make a very good case. There's no overreaction on that. But the fact that you're upset about beating the bills, no, I said, I said they should be more upset about the extension. There's a certain level of upsetness and one makes you more upset than the other.

And neither should come on jet fan telling me, come on. All right. Last one. Yeah. Sunday night football. Yeah.

We watched it. The dolphins are pretenders while you even throw out your notes, pretenders. Okay. Look, you have no use for the notes anymore.

You just throw it over the table. No, I, well, I have the nugget that I want to say to you earlier. Okay. They have five wins, right? They're five wins. They had, they had five wins. They're the teams that they beat had five wins. And then the three, one in five teams that they beat, not impressed, all won yesterday. So now it looks a little bit better that their five wins have eight.

What are we doing? The dolphins. Come on. The dolphins are flat out in the club of who have they really beaten.

And I told you before, and I will tell you again, they beat the chargers in week one when anything can happen and everyone's like talking, Justin Herbert is going to be MVP of the league. Absolutely. Okay. And they still went under those circumstances. They beat them.

Okay. You're, you know, using the week seven prism to denigrate their week one win based on what I've seen the chargers do in the last six to new England came off of a near miss your first moral victory of the season that you wanted in week seven, you actually got in week one against Philadelphia and then new England has them come into their house. It's their second straight road game to start the season. And they won both of them. It's tough to win two in a row, start the season on the road back to back. And they won both games, including a division game.

That's never easy to do to win in new England, but we've seen what the Broncos are. They're not very good. They're going to have a top five pick. So you put 70 on them. Carolina is going to have the worst record in the league.

What they are. They've been punched in the mouth twice and they lost both games, but you say the bills stink and they lost to the bills. So that means now, not when they played the dolphins early in the year, it's a week to week league.

I can only judge you on what you've done recently all as the rest of the dolphins from 72 will tell you. So that's another team. I don't need to hear it. I know.

So again, you're using your own personal biases on this podcast. No, I'm just looking at the dolphins. You're not the only one saying this about the dolphins. I will tell you this. They have problems right now, beating teams that hit you in a mouth and make sure to a hangs onto the ball for an extra beat.

That is a problem. They have to figure that out. I do believe defensively.

They're only going to get better. Xavian Howard wasn't there last night. Jaylen Ramsey will be coming back.

It's entirely possible. Hopefully for their sake. And for the sake of those of us calling the game on NFL network, both will be back in time for the chiefs dolphins game in Germany in week nine. So let's just see, we're matriculating down the schedule.

They are not pretenders. I guarantee you that is a team that you don't want to see coming to your house in January. If you're the Jaguars, that is not a team that you want to see coming to their house in January. If you're, you know, name any other team from the AFC North, although, you know, they coming into your house in the middle of a freezing winter, that might be an issue. Maybe. I don't know.

You don't want to go to South Florida though. That's great. And right now, because you think the bills are done for the year, tell us the dolphins are going to have you come into their house.

So they're not pretenders. And that wraps up this edition of overreaction Monday, except for the predictions. I came so close. I said that the Eagles, the prediction, the overreaction prediction for this week is that the Eagles are in trouble. I knew I thought deep down that the Ravens were going to beat the lions. I should have come out with that. The lions are in trouble. That would have been, I would have been able to actually say, see, look at you overreacting in the manner in which I predicted you would.

I said the Raiders were going to go on a run with Aidan O'Connell, he didn't even play. That's your guy's fault. Geez. I throw McDaniel's on your plate. My guy.

My guy. Okay, here we go. What are we going to overreact to for the week eight show? Here's what we got. Yeah. In the big show, I was like, wait, how are the Steelers four and two?

I still can't believe that. They're going to beat the Jags this week. And then we're going to say the Steelers are going to win the AFC North.

How is that an overreaction though? If they beat the Jaguars, how is that an overreaction? Because their offense stinks and they're not even nearly as good as the Ravens or the Browns. They already have a win against the Ravens though. But they're not as good as the Ravens.

You know that, I know that, they know that. Any given Sunday though, you throw the records out with that. They're not as good as the Browns.

If Deshaun Washington's healthy. Pittsburgh is at Baltimore, the final weekend of the year. Week 18. Wow.

Middle of January. Wow. Let's go.

Hashtag, here we go. If you watch the Steelers play. Their offense stinks. Right. Their defense is good. Right. Them saying, I mean, they could win this game 15-13 on Sunday. Right.

Steelers winning the North. I think it's a pretty big overreaction. Okay. And hop my, pop mine up there, Hoskins, to wrap up this addition of overreaction. Oh, wow. The overreaction is the Rams season is over.

I think the Dallas Cowboys. Good one. Knocked the Rams around a little bit. Good one.

It could be entirely possible that Sean McVay isn't even there. You know, his wife is in labor. Yeah.

They're not in labor. She's due. She's ready to do any second now.

She's due. McVay, you know, might not be even part of the prep or whatever. It could be a wild week for the Rams.

Where was Cooper Cup yesterday? 29 yards? I mean, the Steelers are a good defensive team, which is why yours is not an overreaction. They're not good on offense. They're terrible on offense.

When it's picket time, right? And so the Rams can fall to three and five, and you could sit here and say that their season is over. After that, they're at Green Bay. They have a bye. They can sweep the season series from Seattle. That would be huge.

Yep. Then they're at Arizona. They could sweep the season series from them. Then they're home for Cleveland.

Who the hell knows? The tough run at Baltimore in week 14, home for Washington, a Thursday night home date short week against New Orleans. These are winnable games at the Giants, and then they finish up against San Francisco. They can make a run here, pal, and that's not even high a register. So even going to three and five, they have nine games to go.

They can win six of their final nine, entirely possible, and make the playoffs. Just throwing it out there. Good one.
