Some NFL thoughts I have after Week 18:
-Zac Taylor's record without Joe Burrow is 9-30. If he can't win with Joe Burrow, what's the point in keeping him.
-Trevor Lawrence is playing as well as any QB in the entire league.
-Tua should go to the Cardinals. Warm weather, decent talent around him, fresh start.
-I like the Colts decision to retain Shane Steichen. He had them in 1st Place & was getting the most out of Daniel Jones before all the injuries.
-Not to say they can't win 2 home games and win the AFC, but has there ever been a #1 seed that instills less confidence than the Broncos and Bo Nix?
-The Giants went from the #1 pick headed into Week 17, to the #2 pick headed into Week 18. Finished with the #5 pick after winning both games. Incompetence.
-I'm surprised Sirianni decided to rest his players in Week 18. The #2 seed is valuable. You get to play a home game in the divisional round instead of having to go on the road.
-Great run, but John Harbaugh has to go. A new voice is needed for the Ravens. He would be a good fit with the Giants.
-The Raiders should draft Fernando Mendoza and offer Curt Cignetti a massive contract to be their Head Coach.
-Final MVP Vote: 1) Stafford 2) Maye 3) Lawrence
