Bills knock off the Chiefs 30-21. Chiefs have been playing with fire all season. They’ve won 4 games decided by 5 points or less or OT. Still don’t trust the Bills in the playoffs but they have all the ingredients to go to the Super Bowl.

So after reading more and more articles and watching more and more talking heads, the chances of the Vols being in the Playoffs is slim to none. Anything can happen, but the odds aint good.

Well they are only looking at it as no more upsets will happen I guess because college football is built for upsets. I find it hard to believe that every single team within the top 10 will go undefeated over the next 3 weeks whenever two top 7 teams have lost each week since the initial CFP rankings. We are guaranteed another one with Ohio State and Indiana playing. And five top 11 teams will be on the road altogether. Chances are very high for upsets galore this weekend. And then rivalry weekend always has upsets. Who is to say crappy Purdue won’t wake up and decide to end Indiana’s season? Or Auburn and Michigan decides they will do the same? Or USC puts it all together for one game vs Notre Dame? You don’t think a rival would just relish the opportunity at keeping their rival out of their conference championship or CFP? Those people are naive.

Wouldn’t it be wild if Indiana does pull off the upset and then Michigan beats Ohio State to not only keep them out of the Big Ten Championship but also the CFP? There is so much that can happen in these two weeks. I don’t understand whenever people think nothing crazy is going to happen. Anyone can beat anyone on any given day.

Do you think that "green horn" is ready to play in the NFL yet?

That's what I want to find out. If he's healthy, and with that large lead at the start of the 4th quarter, I'd ask the staff what they think and give him a shot to save Goff some wear and tear and to see how Hendon handles NFL speed and strength.

Look at Brock Purdy, he didn't have much notice as a back up and I'd say he was pretty good.

You've seen Hendon, I think he's ready for the speed and Lions protect their qb, so it's not like Hendon is in peril.

Anyway, what do you think?

Agree. As you pointed out, the Vols are no longer in control of their destiny. Post season opportunity currently resides with different scenarios and that's provided the Vols continue to win.
