My actual article about how it's bull that the Broncos and Cardinals are "playoff" teams when we stomped them both a combined 88-14

Here's the deal.

The Cardinals are 8-7.

The Broncos are 8-7.

The Patriots are 10-5.

The Patriots defeated the Broncos, 41-7.

The Patriots defeated the Cardinals, 47-7.

Which team(s) would you peg as the playoff team(s)?

That's right, the Broncos and Cardinals. Are you kidding me?

Also, if the Patriots beat the Bills on Sunday, I guarantee that Eric Mangini will do all he can to throw the game against the Dolphins, just so he can spite BB and deny the Patriots a playoff berth. Unfortunately, he forgets that if the Ravens lose, the Patriots will still get in. The best scenario? The Patriots win, the Dolphins win, and the Ravens lose. That way, we can all embarrass Eric Mangina and the Patriots will laugh their way into the playoffs as a wild card (where they flourish, I might add).

Thought in that case I'd think we'd be the 6 seed playing Miami in Miami, whereas if the Jets and Ravens win, we get the 3 seed, and a home playoff game against the Ravens. Actually-- I don't know if the Pats would beat the Ravens. I don't which I'd take. Lets just make the playoffs- I'll be happy.

The Broncos (if they even make it, and it's looking like they won't beat SD on Sunday) and Cardinals have a ZERO PERCENT chance of winning a playoff game- I don't care if they are home. They aren't good.

Yeah, the Jets beating the Dolphins is a more likely scenario than the Jags beating the Ravens, unless MJD manages to somehow run all over them.

Our best shot was really the Cowboys taking care of business against the Ravens, but that didn't happen.

I wouldn't be worried about Miami in Miami though -- that's where we handed them their asses in the second game.

Also, I do realize that this is the 37th game that Brett Favre has claimed to be his last (according to my source: http://www.dickipedia.org/dick.php?title=Brett_Favre), but I doubt he'd let Mangina let him throw it.
