Showdown coming up in the NC West btw Arizona/Pern & San Fran/gdb, both teams have been on a roll and only 1/2 game separate them, winner takes the division and playoff bye with best record in the conference. First time that Ive been in that situation in a division on the last game of the regular season, makes the last game a lot more interesting. Tenn has nailed the best record (14-1) & first round bye in the AFC, congrats GD. The second bye spot is up for grabs with LA & NY having a one game lead over Balt with 11-4 records. Minny is looking good for the second bye spot in the NFC at 11-4 trailed by Atlanta, Philly, & NO at 10-5. Atlanta & NO will be playing for the division win, both are 10-5, Atlanta has the easier matchup of the two as NO has to beat Division winner Minny to have a chance to win the division, but will be in the playoffs either way. Best of luck all and congrats on the good seasons, c ya in the playoffs.

GG Pern, was hoping to make it close at the end but missed the boat. When I looked at the play call log, I was blown away, that was def not my def gameplan, didnt go anywhere near the way I thought I had it set up, especially on def call distribution & short yardage defense. Something was way off, as the Dbl WR 1 got called 26 times! and Man Cover 2 was next at 14, and Im not a fan of using coverage defenses more than blitzes as everyone knows, lol. Those long 3rd down passes for TDs were killers, all on the CB1 side. Hope to figure out what happ'd, so it doesnt happen again. Best of luck the rest of the playoffs, will be back next season. cheers, gdb

PS edit: figured out what caused the overuse, 113 offense auto'd the Nickel, only had 3 Nickel def plays and those two had the most familiarity along with the full red bars. So, to prevent that, either you have to use a lot of Nickel plays, not use any, or use a rule to offset the 113 auto.

Yeah good game GDB. You are a great competitor and I look forward to this being a great divisional battle for a long time :) Glad I got to show you that at this stage I'm the best in the West, even if I had to beat up on my 49ers to do it.

Nice Game Arizona, Pern your teams are always tough.

I cannot complain about the Falcons effort. I took over this team was just hoping for an 8 and 8 season and they went the Conference Championship.

Yeah Otterpop your defense actually slowed my offense more than the final score indicates, but 8 picks by your QBs was overkill and made my team look better than it is.

Thanks Otter, I was pretty shocked that I went on such a dominant run. I guess O-line really is king in this game.
