Quote:The Jags are right in the thick of playoff talk. Who would have thought that after 11 weeks we would be.

That's 8 teams fighting for 3 spots. We're 1 game out of division race.... and no wild card too.

I'm kind of confused by this. I assume by the 3 spots you mean the AFC South winner and the two wild cards, in which case it's 3 (or 4 depending on how you view the titans) fighting for one spot (the AFC South title) and then 7 teams fighting for the two wild cards. But I'm not sure any team in the AFC has yet been mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, though it's highly unlikely the Browns, Ravens, or Chargers have enough things go their way to take a wildcard.

 

PS - how awesome is it to still be talking about the playoffs on Thanksgiving week, let alone a home playoff game?!?!?!?!?!
