NFL week 13 winners and losers

Howdy, friends. Gather here for the last NFL weekly Winners and Losers thread. After week 13 there will be only four games left for each team and things will fall in place more and more. Additional teams will be eliminated from making the playoffs, and others will start clinching spots, so this exercise will become futile, given that as far as the regular season is concerned, we can say that all teams that make the playoffs are winners, and all teams that do not are losers, by definition. So, starting with week 14 I'm planning to post playoff scenarios (what each team needs to do to earn a seed) instead of a Winners/Losers list.

To consult the state of affairs as of week 12, see the previous thread here:

------------ 

Winners:

Vikings - Impressive statement win on the road in Atlanta, firmly in control, very dangerous team.
-IDK why....I dont trust them in the playoffs. Still = Winners.

Patriots - They look likely they'll go all the way to the Super Bowl, again.
-Biggest worry they got....Gronk out a game. LOL = Winners

Titans - Remain in first place but if not should make the wild card
-Funny what a season can do. Remember it was "Who gots this division, Indy or Houston," that's what it was. Now, Indy and Hou got no QB, and Jax and Titans are probably in. This division could be beast..Luck comes back, Watson comes back, look at what Watson did to the Titans, destroyed them. Still, Titans I think are in = Winners

Jaguars - A bit behind the Titans but should still make the wild card
-Agreed = Winners

Ravens - Looks like they'll make the playoffs after all
-Looks like my friend @hereticofjeffbezos called this one. = Winners

Seahawks - Came out as big time winners this weekend, taking possession of one of the wild cards slots and pulling closer to the division lead, while beating the team that had an aura of invincibility. They put the NFL on notice. They are back.
-I always liked them....but jesus, their defense isnt the same. Had a good game....but can they do it. Regardless = Winners

Eagles - Wentz finally had a very bad day. It happens. It doesn't mean the Eagles are not winners, as far as this exercise is concerned because they will obviously make the playoffs with good seeding, but certainly the Vikings and the Saints will give them trouble.
-I figured theyd eventually drop one. It's the NFL, theyre okay. = Winners.

Saints - The somewhat under-rated Saints as far as conference championship is concerned showed to the Vikings and the Eagles that they should brace for a bruising battle for the title.
-Kamara and Ingram, best two punch in football imho....Murray and McKinnon are right behind (Min). Still, these 2 headed monster is no joke....o and they got Drew. = Winners.

Panthers - I'm not ready to take them out of the winners list for losing to the excellent Saints on the road. They remain within the wild card, and actually Atlanta was the biggest loser this week in the NFC South, falling behind in the Wild Card race. With the tiebreakers completely against them, it is now quite clear that the Panthers won't be winning the division, but Atlanta still has two games against the Saints and the rest of the competition for the wild card is not in great shape (except for the Seahawks) so the Panthers are still comfortable.
-I agree = Winners

Chargers - As predicted, tied the free-falling Chiefs. The Raiders also did but in a lackluster way so I'm now predicting that the Chargers will win the division.
-Imagine if they could have just started just 1-3...just win one of those 4 games. I like this team, and KC is in free fall mode. Remember after week one...KC to the superbowl and NE is in trouble. How does that look now? = Winners.

Rams - At 9-3 they are in excellent shape. Now under some pressure by the Seahaws, one game behind for the division, but if by any chance the Rams don't win the division, they are still comfortable for the wild card.
-Agreed = Winners

Steelers - It's often not pretty but they manage a way to win. 
-Remember people asking if Pitt should ditch Ben, this is why I said no. He gets it done, might not be pretty, but the boy wins. = Winners.

Losers:

Redskins - They oscillated between different lists more than any other team. I don't precisely know why but I kept giving them the benefit of the doubt. No more. They are certified losers and won't make the playoffs.
-I hate to say I told ya so....  ok ok, this is why I didnt trust them. = Losers

Cowboys - They finally figured how to run the ball without Zeke, but it may be too little too late, because there are only four more games left for them, and in the wild card race they are several games behind the Panthers, the Falcons and the Seahawks. They'd need to run the table (hehe, where is DC-Fan?) and count on two many combinations of results.
-Yea, NFC is too dang deep, Dallas isnt getting in. Hey, we can still hear DC_Fan cry about NE. = Losers

Bills - Pathetic. They continue to undermine their quarterback, giving snaps to the back-up, and then he got injured and they had to go with the awful Peterman again. Bad play calling, too. What a joke of a team!
-Hell with this team for how they treated their QB. = Losers 

Niners - Interesting victory on the feet of their kicker who made all five FGs to defeat his former employer the Bears by one point, and in spite of no TDs and one interception that wasn't his fault, Garoppolo actually played well on a simplified playbook. But at 2-10, they are certified losers this season; with a new quarterback they should fare better next season.
-All this win did was screw them draft wise, tank baby tank. = Losers and double losers for just hurting their draft position.

Bears - Managed to lose to a team that was 1-10 and couldn't even score a TD. Pathetic.
-Sad....=Losers

Bucs - The joke of the otherwise super-strong NFC South.
-NFCS is so deep...and we got...the Bucs = Losers.

Packers - Remain in the wild card hunt but I find it unlikely
-Theyre talking Aaron could come back, I think it be a bad move. Let this season go. = Losers

Texans - A season down the drains.
-Cleveland smiles with each loss.....1st and 2nd round picks, so...what good Free agents could we sign? = Losers

Colts - Poor Colts. They even made Borttles look good. Enough said.
-And my Texans lose to this team, jesus. = Losers

Broncos - What a pitiful fall from grace!
-Indeed = Losers

Dolphins - Beat the hapless Broncos but it doesn't mean they are not losers.
-Drake looked good? Sigh = Losers

Chiefs - Continue to slide down and while they are miraculously still hanging on, I believe they will continue to go down and will crash out of the playoffs.
-I cant say losers yet....theyre in the hunt (What happened to Hunt btw....). Ill give them one more week (Im probably gonna be wrong and youll get your revenge for Washington) = NME.

Jets - An interesting team that went above expectations but not enough to make the playoffs
-I agree with you, they did go above expectations. Who had them with a better record > Giants? Still = Losers

Lions - After a good season start, they are melting down almost as badly as the Chiefs
-IDK about as bad as the chiefs...but not good. = Losers

Browns - Gave the Chargers more trouble than many teams did but remain winless.
-THEYRE CLOSER TO THE GOLD! = Losers with a chance of 0-16 history!

Giants - The Geno Smith era (LOL) didn't start well. What a joke!
-Jesus..= Losers

Cardinals - Not awful, but won't make the playoffs anyway.
-Im glad to see Larry and AP (Didnt play today) having good seasons. = losers.

Bengals - Penalties galore, ugly game, squandered their lead, what a choke job.
-What Cincy does! If Lewis keeps his job.....riots in the streets Cincy! = Losers

Need more evidence:

Falcons - The Falcons, hopefully temporarily, dropped out of the wild card zone with today's loss, and I need to acknowledge that there's been sloppy play and inconsistent results so I'm no longer fully confident that the Falcons will make the playoffs, given that they have the toughest remaining schedule in the NFL, so, we'll need more evidence in the last few games.
-I agree = NME

Raiders - Mediocre but managed to tie the Chiefs and the Chargers for the division lead. I don't expect them to make it, but who knows?
-Im with you, theyre in the hunt. = NME

Feel free to participate, agree, disagree, post your own analysis, and even that pathetic fat troll Granny should feel free to post her ridiculous LOLs one last time, and be told again to go outside and get some exercise, fatty.




-Sorry for posting this "in the box" I hit backspace and dont wanna do this all over again!
-One team, KC.  Theyre still "in that hunt." Im probably wrong but im giving them one more NME week. They better win next week, or hell with them.
