AFC South on the line, one of the best running back’s in the league on our team, we need one yard…

In a game featuring wizardry by C.J Stroud and almost 200 yards on the ground from Jonathan Taylor and the Indianapolis offensive line, the Tyler Goodson highlight will be the one to go down in infamy.
The play sucks if your a Colts fan don’t get me wrong, but I think you can take solace in the fact no one in the AFC South was, or is, going anywhere in the postseason.
C.J. Stroud being magical gives the division its best shot at making noise and we’ll see it next week. Something tells me the Browns won’t let Nico Collins catch 8 balls for 175 yards though.
Anyway, some other interesting stuff happened around the sports world this weekend. Let’s get right into it.
Fish Out of Water.
The Miami Dolphins are in trouble.
We at Section 400 gave them the fraud label weeks ago but this type of collapse is even worse than what we expected.
Miami was a lock to win the AFC East midway through the season but failed to distance themselves from the red hot Buffalo Bills, setting up a “winner-take-all” game for the divisional crown.
Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins lost, and now have to travel to Kansas City (an expectedly freezing cold Kansas City at that) to take on the defending-champion Chiefs in the first-round.
It’s very possible Mike McDaniel’s team could be Wild Card Round exists after looking like a Super Bowl Contender early in the season. Getting Jaylen Waddle, Raheem Mostert, Bradley Chubb, and others back next week could change things however.
It’s pretty cloudy in Philadelphia.
Remember when the mighty Eagles started off the season as the best team in football. Section 400 contributer Matt remembers.
@views.from.400 The #eagles beat the #cowboys in a huge #nfc battle! Are they the best team in the #NFL? Matt thinks so. Check out this reaction to the game below!! Follow us for the best #reactions #bets and #sports content around! #fyp #football #rival
The Birds have gone a mediocre 3-4 since Matt filmed that TikTok and claimed his team “pretty much just wrapped up the NFC East”.
Unfortunately that claim was false, and the reeling Eagles now have to head into Tampa Bay to play a first-round road playoff game against the NFC South champion Bucs.
Philly is favored and should come out with a win, but it’s hard to see this team beating the 49ers, Cowboys, Lions, or even Rams in the NFC playoffs later after that.
Bring me March.
College Basketball analysts love to say it every year, but I think we finally have a truly wide-open NCAA Tournament field coming up in a few months.
Other than Purdue, (who is more of a choking hazard than a toddler playing with a lego) no team in college basketball has been able to consistently win games.
Just this past weekend, we saw No. 17 FAU lost to a bad Charlotte team, No. 12 BYU lose a home game to Cincinnati, No 13. Colorado State lose to Utah State, No. 20 Texas fail to win a home game against unranked Texas Tech, No. 7 Marquette lose another Big East game, and No. 2 Kansas nearly fail to beat an unranked TCU team in Allen Field House.
With the parity across the landscape this year it’s a miracle my picks have gone 21-9. Look out for another one tonight in the “What to watch for tonight” column.
Also, a quick shoutout to my Auburn Tigers for handing Arkansas their biggest home loss (since Bud Walton Arena was erected) ever.
Bruce Pearl may have his best team ever.
It all comes down to this.
If you’ve been following us at all this college football season you are well aware we put in a future for the Washington Huskies to win it all back in October.
Michael Penix Jr. and the guys have given us a lot of stress along the way, but stand just one win away from cashing the future and winning the National Championship.
We’ll be live streaming our reactions to the game tonight on our YouTube channel! Come hang out and watch us sweat out the Natty (and hopefully celebrate a W)
