Official Texans vs. Titans Game Thread, 1/3/2021

[HPF Bob]

If the Titans win by less than 14, it will be because they pulled their starters. There's only one playoff team per conference that skips the wild card round so watch several teams rest players because staying healthy will be more important than actually winning.

This, of course, doesn't apply to the Oilers. Judging from J.J.'s comments, some of their players are already in offseason mode. It seems every 3-5 years, the Oilers must be blown up and started over. Looks like this is the way it is headed now - except we won't have a high #1 to begin the rebuild.

After the first games are done, Titans and Colts both need to win to make the playoffs. If either loses, Miami is in. If both lose, Titans have the tiebreaker.

Washington must win tonight to be NFC Least champs, otherwise, it will be New York.

Bears, Rams and Cardinals vie for the last two spots in the NFC in the late games while GB tries to beat the Bears in order to hold the first-round bye.
