Mike Kafka wants the full time gig. He will have the Giants playing hard.

Another good point. He wants to show that the Giants have undergone a metamorphosis under the trial of his leadership.

3 of Seahawks/Browns/Falcons/Bears lose and it doesn’t matter what the Giants or Raisers do? Is that correct?

I honestly think the Niners and Bengals are winning. Crazy if it comes down to the Lions/Bears game for us.

Not sure if this has been posted but I just noticed this awesome tool on tankathon.
If Raiders win and Giants lose, it calculates what needs to happen for Raiders to get #1.

3 of 4 need to win: 49ers, Saints, Bengals, Lions.

He’s probably my most despised player. I just wish he played back in the real football days with a prime Tatum laying the wood on his cocky ass.

Davis needs to be telling Pete he gets to keep his job for next season if he secures us the first pick and then send him packing asap regardless. Tell him if he’s closer than a 2 possession game at halftime his office will be packed for him before the end of the game.

I don't care if we beat the Chiefs. I want Travis Swift to get shut down and smashed to the turf in what could be the final game of his career. Honestly the ideal outcome is that we lose to the Chiefs to give us the first pick in every round, and Kelce has a terrible game.

So tonight at 8pm its Seattle vs San Fransisco, one piece of the #1 pick possibility.

Go 49ers.
Go Detroit
Go New Orleans
Go Cincinnati
Now that's a parlay to play....win 3 of 4 and Raiders get #1 regardless of Giant/Raider outcomes.

Go Giants
Go KC...I puked a little on this one...

That game 2 weeks ago when GB choked away their late 10 point lead against Chicago (with their lousy prevent defense; a failure to cover an ensuing onside kick; and a turnover in OT) could come back to bite us. If GB had held on, our backup plan would have only required 2 out of 4 outcomes, instead of 3 out of 4.

If I read correctly, if Giants win at 1pm, raiders clinch #1 pick?
ARZ TN Jets by sos have been eliminated from securing the #1 regardless if they win or lose?

Thanks SF
NO and Cin would be good bets to win
Lions I would think since Bears have home field round 1
Gonna be a close one…

How about this with the NYGiants ? Trying to keep up with the Raiders roster moves? Tank away.
