    Would have been a trivia question I'd have gotten wrong.

    Also going to be interesting how many season ending injuries occur next weekend. Not many teams are going to get to rest their starters, if any really can. Attrition may become a big headline heading into the playoffs.

    What am I missing for next week?

    FOX keeps saying there are 2 games on ESPN Saturday then a Sunday night game to close. When I look at week 18 schedule it has all games on Sunday at 11 and last games at 3:25, all on CBS or FOX.

    Good future lesson for the rest of the league given by McCarthy. Hold on to 1 timeout until the 2 minute warning when you can no longer challenge. Could have had the opportunity to send the game to OT or won had he held onto one

    Mike is excellent of setting the example of what not to do with clock management and challenges.

    I might tune in for the Cowher segment, but eff Snoop and his traitor ways. That liberal elitist will wear any jersey to get on camera.

    Other than that they just don't focus on the game enough to watch the entire thing.

    I actually hope Ben comes back next season, they're not going to be any worse with him than without.

    Mid 40 million cap space, pull some one year contracts to build the O-line and recoup that cap space the following year. See if Pouncey will come back, slide him over from center one way or the other so he's not snapping.

    Now that that wet dream is over, if this is indeed his final season get something from the current talent now before they get into free agency. Trade James Washington, Juju, maybe Minkah and Bush.

    Get some extra draft picks over the next 3 seasons.

    Maybe Ben should have announced after Preseason this would be his last year. They're playing inspired tonight, I see TJ getting another 2.5 sacks before the night is over.

    Glad to see Kupp state records for a 17 game season should be separate from the 16 game seasons.
