Tuesday’s 6-pack
Interesting Week 17 NFL spreads:
— Cowboys (-9.5) @ Tennessee
— Panthers @ Tampa Bay (-3)
— Colts @ NJ Giants (-3.5)
— Bears @ Detroit (-5.5)
— Dolphins @ New England (-2)
— Browns @ Washington (-2.5)

Quote of the Day
“………we’ve got to get better. We want to improve. We want to see where we are. These last two games matter. They’re division opponents to us, very important to our football team to see the competition, to see guys compete against our division. I think it’s important for each man, it’s important for each unit and it’s important for our whole football team.”
Chicago Bears coach Matt Eberflus

Tuesday’s quiz
Where did James Harden play his college basketball?

Monday’s quiz
Jared Goff was the Rams’ starting QB from midway thru 2016 until 2020. Case Keenum was the Rams’ starter before Goff.

Sunday’s quiz
Craig Morton started at QB for the Dallas Cowboys, first time they played in a Super Bowl, way back in Super Bowl V against the Colts.

********************************

Tuesday’s Den: Nobody asked me, but……..

— If the NFL playoffs started today, these QB’s would start in the playoffs:
AFC
Buffalo— Josh Allen, 1st round pick (#7)
Kansas City— Patrick Mahomes, 1st round pick (#10)
Cincinnati— Joe Burrow, 1st round pick (#1)
Jacksonville— Trevor Lawrence, 1st round pick (#1)
Baltimore— Lamar Jackson, 1st round pick (#32)
LA Chargers— Justin Herbert, 1st round pick (#6)
Miami— Tua Tagovoiloa, 1st round pick (#5)/Teddy Bridgewater, 1st round (#32)

All seven AFC starting QB’s would be first round draft picks.

NFC
Philadelphia— Jalen Hurts, 2nd round pick
Minnesota— Kirk Cousins, 4th round pick
San Francisco— Brock Purdy, 7th round pick
Tampa Bay— Tom Brady, 6th round pick
Dallas— Dak Prescott, 4th round pick
NJ Giants— Daniel Jones, 1st round pick (#6)
Washington— Carson Wentz, 1st round pick (#2)

Only 2 of 7 starting QB’s in NFC playoffs would be first round picks.

— Green Bay Packers have won their last fifteen December games; their next game is being played Sunday, January 1st.

— Tua Tagovoiloa went into concussion protocol Monday; sounds like he’ll be out for this week’s game in New England. Teddy Bridgewater is the backup QB; Skylar Thompson is the #3 QB.

Meanwhile, Miami is 32nd in kickoff coverage, 25th in punt coverage, 31st in kickoff returns and 30th in punt returns. Special teams suck, QB is hurt, team has lost four games in a row.

— Denver Broncos did the inevitable, fired coach Nathaniel Hackett, who seemed overmatched in the #1 chair. Denver is 4-11 despite selling the farm to acquire Russell Wilson:

Denver sent two first round picks to Seattle, plus…….
Two second round picks
A fifth round pick
three players
They’re paying Wilson a guaranteed $165M……..and they’re 4-11.

— In his last seven games, Jacksonville Jaguars’ QB Trevor Lawrence has thrown for 1,909 yards, with 14 TD passes, only one INT. Hiring Doug Pederson as coach has worked out great for Jacksonville, which is stunningly in first place in AFC South with two weeks to go.

Chargers 20, Colts 3
— Chargers clinched their first playoff berth since 2018.
— Chargers’ first 3 drives: 9 plays, 18 yards, no first downs.
— Chargers last 7 drives: 58 plays, 278 yards, 20 points.
— Under is 6-2 in Bolts’ last eight games.
— Chargers are 8-1 giving up less than 27 points, 1-5 if they give up 27+.

— Last three games, Colts were outscored 82-9 in 2nd half/OT.
— Colts were 0-10 on third down, Chargers 8-18
— Last five games, Colts converted 18-89 (26.1%) third down plays.
— Colts are 3-1-1 scoring 20+ points, 1-9 if they score less.
— Colts lost eight of their last nine games SU.

New Mexico State 24, Bowling Green 19
— Last 10 years, NM State was 26-85; they went 7-6 this year.
— Aggies started season 0-4, outscored 147-32.
— This was coach Kill’s first win in six bowl games.
— Underdogs are 7-3 ATS in last ten Quick Lane Bowls.

— So far in bowl games this month, underdogs are 10-7 ATS; under is 10-6-1 in those games.

— A reminder that since 2010, when a QB wins the Heisman Trophy, his team is 12-5 SU in bowl games that year, 10-7 against the spread. Caleb Williams’ USC squad is a 2-point favorite over Tulane in the Cotton Bowl next week.

— Apparently the day the Mets announced they were signing Carlos Correa to the big contract that he hasn’t signed yet, the Mets sold $1M in single game tickets. In one day.

— NBC flexed Rams-Chargers out of this week’s Sunday night slot, and chose Steelers-Ravens for their 8:15 telecast.

— Atlanta Falcons covered their first six games this season; they’re 0-9 ATS in their last nine games, and now they’re starting a rookie QB.

— It was 46 degrees in Miami Christmas afternoon, when the Packers nipped Miami; it was the coldest Dolphins’ home game since 1989.

— One day last week, price of gas went down 40 cents a gallon; that was a pleasant surprise.

— New Mexico Lobos are 12-0, albeit vs schedule #275; Lobos are #22 in this week’s top 25 college basketball poll, first time in nine years New Mexico has been there.

— Former Texas QB Hudson Card is transferring to Purdue; he started five games at Texas, but Arch Manning is coming to Austin, so Card wasn’t going to play there anymore.

— NFL officials are getting soft with roughing-the-passer penalties; someone on the Dolphins gave Aaron Rodgers a two-hand shove after he threw a pass, and they threw a flag. No way this was a penalty; guys who played QB in the 80’s and earlier had to be laughing— they used to get pummeled by pass rushers. Way easier to play QB now, and opposed to the old days.

— Last thing today; it baffles me that Cleveland didn’t want Baker Mayfield as its QB; the guy went 30-31 as QB of the Browns, 1-1 in playoff games. You win a playoff game in Cleveland, you figure they’d build the guy a statue, but they went all in on Deshaun Watson and told Mayfield to take a hike. Go figure.

Watson went 28-25 in Houston, 1-2 in playoff games, but he’s been sued by dozens of women. You really want the face of your franchise to have numerous off-field issues? I would not.

This still needs to play out down the road, but Mayfield is definitely a starter-quality NFL QB; where he surfaces next year will be an interesting topic to follow.

Wednesday’s 6-pack
NFL leaders in receptions:
123— Justin Jefferson, Minn
113— Tyreek Hill, Miami
101— Stefan Diggs, Buff
99— Austin Ekeler, LAC
97— Travis Kelce, KC
96— Amon-Ra St Brown, Det

Quote of the Day
“You’re a goddamn quarterback! You know what that means? It’s the top spot, kid. It’s the guy who takes the fall. It’s the guy everybody’s looking at first – the leader of a team – who will support you when they understand you. Who will break their ribs and their noses and their necks for you, because they believe. ‘Cause you make them believe. That’s a quarterback.”
Al Pacino, Any Given Sunday

Wednesday’s quiz
In the old TV show Batman, what actor played the Joker?

Tuesday’s quiz
James Harden played his college basketball at Arizona State.

Monday’s quiz
Jared Goff was the Rams’ starting QB from midway thru 2016 until 2020. Case Keenum was the Rams’ starter before Goff.

***************************

Wednesday’s Den; Mid-week musings…….

— NFL teams with most touchdown plays of 20+ yards:
16— Eagles, Raiders, Seahawks
15— 49ers
13— Dolphins
12— Cowboys

— NFL teams with fewest touchdown plays of 20+ yards:
1— Steelers— only one of their 24 TD’s was on a play of 20+ yards.
3— Colts, Buccaneers
4— Falcons
5— Rams, Texans

— Wake Forest QB Sam Hartman is bolting to Notre Dame; he played 45 games over five years for the Deacons, will be 24 next summer. He has one year of college eligibility left.

By way of comparison, Ravens’ QB Lamar Jackson will turn 26 next week; he’s already in his fifth year in the NFL.

As an Oakland A’s baseball fan, I despise free agency, but that’s where we are with college football now. Colleges are paying players NIL money and obviously, QB’s make the most $$$. Hartman must be getting paid to transfer away from Wake; why wouldn’t he just play pro football instead?

— NFL coaches with shortest tenures:
1978— Pete McCulley, 49ers- went 1-8, got fired, then they hired Bill Walsh.
1976— Lou Holtz, Jets- went 3-10, quit, went back to college coaching
2007— Bobby Petrino, Falcons— also went 3-10, quit, went back to college coaching
2021— Urban Meyer, Jaguars— went 2-11, got fired, then they hired Doug Pederson.
2022— Nathaniel Hackett— went 4-11, got fired. Who do they hire next?

— Denver Broncos also fired their special teams coach, offensive line coach with two games left to go. Defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero turned down an offer to be the interim coach, but he’ll interview to be their new head coach.

Condoleeza Rice owns a small part of the Broncos; she has connections to Stanford. I’ll guess that former Stanford coach David Shaw is going to get an interview for this job.

— Over their last three games, Green Bay Packers ran 196 plays, their opponents ran 138. Green Bay outscored those teams 45-9 in the second half.

— Jets are getting QB Mike White back this week, for their game in Seattle. Jets scored 21.7 ppg in White’s three starts (1-2) this season.

— Arizona DE JJ Watt announced he is retiring after the season; he’s had a great 12-year career, winning Defensive Player of Year three times, but he’s a better person than he was a ballplayer.

While playing for the Texans, Watt helped raise $38-40M to help flood victims in Houston after Hurricane Harvey ravaged Houston in 2017.

— Buffalo 23, Georgia Southern 21
Buffalo converted 12-19 third down plays.
GSU QB Vantrease threw for 355 yards against his old team.
Buffalo wins its third straight bowl game.

— Memphis 38, Utah State 10
Tigers threw for 284 yards (9.8 yards/pass attempt)
Game was 24-3 at halftime.
Memphis gained 179 yards, just in the 2nd quarter.

— East Carolina 53, Coastal Carolina 29
Pirates averaged 5.4 yards/running play, 8.1 yards/pass play.
Chanticleers lost three fumbles (minus-3 in turnovers)
penalties: Coastal 11-98 yards; ECU 11-130.

— Wisconsin 24, Oklahoma State 7
Both teams had new QB’s; the starters both transferred.
Badgers ran ball 47 times for 258 yards (5.7 yards/carry).
Oklahoma State completed only 14-31 passes.

— Bad beat in the NBA Monday night; with 2:56, Pistons (+5.5) led Clippers 126-112, but not only did they not win the game, they didn’t even cover, losing 142-131 in overtime.

— There was almost a similar bad beat in the NBA Tuesday night; Knicks (+5.5) led Dallas 110-101 with 0:44 left in game- they lost 126-121 in overtime. Ugly loss.

Knicks were only 15-24 in foul line; Luka Doncic was 16-22 on the line by himself. Mavericks made 25-33 on the line overall.

Doncic, by the way, scored 60 points, with 21 rebounds, 10 assists.

— Baseball stuff:
Braves gave C Sean Murphy a 6-year, $73M contract
Rangers gave P Nathan Eovaldi a 2-year, $34M deal
Pirates gave 42-year old P Rich Hill a one-year, $8M deal

Hill will be 43 in March; he was 8-7, 4.27 in 26 starts for the Red Sox last year. Pittsburgh will be his 12th major league team.
