A bright spot with COVID-2020 is that this game isn’t in London at like 9 a.m., but the downside is that a Texans win helps the Jaguars continue the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes. A depleted Texans defense might be the difference today, though. Also: I’ve placed a “flying” easter egg into the article’s Jags stadium image. Can you spot it? If you do, please don’t give clues to the others! The 1st qtr. thread posts at 11:45 a.m. CT.

Bye Week Blues got ya’ down? Barry is here to cure what ails ya’. I am a little disappointed that he didn’t include the Wilfork pic from the “Body” issue of ESPN Magazine. Surely he has it saved on multiple flash drives that are hidden throughout his house. Take it away, Barry…

NFL Could Reportedly Change Playoffs If Too Many Games Are Lost
By Zach Koons, TheSpun

Excerpt: Before the 2020 season got underway, the NFL announced a small playoff expansion to include 14 teams rather than the usual 12 that fans are accustomed to. The deal came together in March and the league owners quickly approved.

But it’s possible that the format could change once again in the coming weeks.

According to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen, the NFL competition committee expects to present a plan to the league’s owners for another expansion. This format would consist of a 16-team playoff tournament, intended to make up for potential regular season games canceled by COVID-19.

Under the new plan, eight teams from each conference would make the postseason.

It’s becoming very clear that JJ Watt is at the end of his rope and possibly at the end of his time here in Houston. Yes, losing sucks, and no there’s nothing wrong with a player expressing discontent. But this is one of many soundbites that appears to show JJ Watt is struggling to find a way to be nice or gracious about much of anything to be honest. Where did the NRG-sun-shining-on-the-field-photo JJ Watt go?
