They've made 6pm missable, thanks NFL!

It will be interesting to see how the Bears line up. To clinch #2 they need to win and the Rams to lose which is highly unlikely. Do the Bears put out the first team as long as Cardinals @ Rams is competitive?

Fair play Paulie for starting these threads every week

I believe I said the same Week 17 last year too!

I think they'll be going out to win. Letting divisional rivals beat you and thinking you'll just turn it in the following week is risky business but I can see the logic: rest your players, avoid injury, play the Vikings instead of the eagles which on paper looks a better bet, etc. On the other hand if there's even a small chance of a bye and a home game playoff it's worth going for. I think you're probably right: if the Rams start getting well on top in the other game we could see lads being rested. But I don't think that's any kind of guarantee: the niners have looked good against the Seahawks and the bears, and the Rams haven't been exactly stellar in the stretch, so I think we should be trying to clinch that seed while it's up for grabs.

I think the Niners have a shot in LA. Gurley is out again and the Niners have done really well recently. Shanahan had them fighting until the final down last season and it looks to be the same this year.

It'll be a interesting evening of football, hopefully.

I've just noticed that 5 of the Niners' 16 games this season have had Thom Brennaman and Chris Spielman commentating. That's just cruel.

49ers are missing a load of players as well though including Breida, Goodwin and Pettis.

In case anyone wondering, Jags at Texans & Bears at Vikings are the Sky games.

No Mariota tonight in a winner takes all game for the Titans against the Colts.

Gabbert will start.

There is some utter dross in in the early window today.

Eli intercepted twice already, once in the endzone.

They've really put themselves in some mess at QB. Will probably end up sticking with Eli again next year.

Wonder what the refs saw on that Watson rushing TD that wasn't shown on redzone...not sure how it was overturned.

Edit: ah they just showed more replays. Looks to be the correct decision.

I think the late game redzone could be class.

Fake field goal TD from the Lions. Sure might as well
