Jets over Patriots

Every now and then, we have a week 17 spoiler team that changes the entire conference playoff landscape (Bengals last year at Baltimore) we don’t see coming.

Darnold is capable of torching a Pats defense I don’t trust

I'd just like to see them play a Wild Card game for once. Which is why I was frustrated by HOU/PHI

Not sure how many of these I missed out on, but I'm taking the Bears over the Vikings, mainly because I think the 49ers will keep it close against the Rams and I'm very confident that if the Bears have to play that Cousins is going to gag. Was that 2 years ago I think that happened against the Giants? And the Giants were already in and had 'nothing to play for'

There's a lot of teams having to hold serve and not all of them are going to do it and this seems like the most likely spot for it not to.
