It has finally arrived, Week 17. This has been quite the year, full of surprises, success stories, and failed hopes (I’m looking at you Philly and San Diego). The Texans and Lions join the playoffs for the first time in 12 years and a [...]

The Colts got their win to avoid the imperfect season and have no reason to play hard and screw up their draft position.  Even if they wanted to, [...]
