Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

Six of the more intriguing games on the Week 17 NFL card

-- Panthers @ Falcons-- Winner gets to playoffs with sub-.500 record.

-- Lions @ Packers-- Detroit's last win at Lambeau was in 1991.

-- Bengals @ Steelers-- Winner takes AFC North title; both are in playoffs.

-- Chargers @ Chiefs-- San Diego gets into playoffs with a win; KC needs a win and some help to get in.

-- Bills @ Patriots-- NE is #1 seed in AFC; will Brady/Gronkowski play?

-- Rams @ Seahawks-- Seattle wins NFC West if they avenge an earlier loss.


**********

Armadillo: Tuesday's List of 13: Random stuff on a rainy day......

13) Bengals 37, Broncos 28-- Cincy is in playoffs after this rainy win, which also clinched #1 seed in AFC for New England. Peyton Manning looked old in this game.

12) Temple 77, Kansas 52-- Huh? Owls lost to UNLV, St Joe's two mediocre teams, but they spanked the young Jayhawks here.

11) Providence 76, Miami 62-- Hurricanes had been unbeaten but have now lost three of their last four games. Good win for the Big East here.

Oklahoma had a 39-0 run in its win over Weber State, which apparently is down this year. Weber is usually one of the better teams in the Big Sky Conference.

10) Oregon 82, UCSB 78 OT-- For what I pay for DirecTV, they should carry the damn Pac-12 Network. Ducks are 9-3. Gauchos are a little disappointing.

9) Gardner-Webb 89, Purdue 84-- Runnin' Bulldogs from Boiling Springs, NC have wins over Clemson, Purdue, also have a loss to #340 Jacksonville- they're 8th-worst free throw shooting team in America, at 58.3%. .

8) Loyola Marymount has kids from six different countries on its basketball team this year. It is unfair to compare current LMU teams to the Kimble/Gathers team from the late 80's that made the Elite 8-- those two went to USC originally and transferred to Loyola after a coaching change with the Trojans.

7) Memphis 55, BYU 48 OT-- First Miami Beach Bowl had a thrilling end followed by a vicious brawl; do these nitwits realize the games are televised, so everything they do is on film? If you see the replay, check out #61 on Memphis, who looks around at the fisticuffs, quickly puts his helmet on and adjusts the chinstrap. Smart man.

Jake Elliott is the Memphis kicker; he drilled a 54-yarder in OT to keep Memphis alive; ball hit the net, might have been good from 64 yards. Clutch kick.

6) Colorado State replaced Jim McElwain with former Georgia QB Mike Bobo, who was most recently the Dawgs' OC. Hard for a Mountain West school to keep a good coach; if he wins big, the megabucks schools start calling and the mid-major has to go head-hunting all over again. .

5) Detroit Pistons cut Josh Smith, despite still owing him $26M for the rest of his contract. You know a coach has clout when he convinces management to eat $26M.

4) NFL suspended Lions' OL Dominic Raiola for stomping on another opponent this week; Detroit has to be relieved he didn't get suspended for two games, second of which would've been a playoff game. Last time the Lions won in Green Bay, the QB for Green Bay was Mike Tomczak and I still had most of my hair.

3) NFL teams who won field position by 10+ yards are 84-4 this season.

2) Seattle Seahawks won their last five games by a combined score of 114-33, but I do not think they're winning this Super Bowl. Its been nine years since the defending Super Bowl champ even won one playoff game.

1) Think about Russell Wilson being a 3rd round draft pick, just like Joe Montana was; Tom Brady was a 6th-round pick, Kurt Warner wasn't even drafted, while Ryan Leaf was the #2 pick in the whole draft. Scouting is an inexact science, for sure.

Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

Six NFL trends, with Week 17 coming up tomorrow

-- Packers are 1-4 on turf, 9-0 on grass; they're 5-2 as home favorites this season

-- Favorites are 9-1 vs spread in AFC South divisional games this season.

-- Ravens are 4-1 vs spread in game following a loss this season.

-- Six of last seven Buffalo games, four of last five Patriot games stayed under total.

-- Falcons are 5-0 in divisional games, 1-9 vs everyone else.

-- Eagles are only third team since '90 to be at 9-3 or better after 12 games yet not make it to playoffs.


**********

Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Doing some thinking out loud.........

13) Alex Smith has a lacerated spleen and won't play Sunday; Chase Daniel gets his second career start; scary thing is the injury wasn't diagnosed until Thuirsday. Daniel made his other career start last year in Week 17, also against San Diego.

12) NBA/ESPN has to wise up and stop showing Knicks/Lakers every Christmas; they're both terrible. Lot of good teams they could show, ya know?

11) Random statistic: 41% of NYPD is Caucasian; 28% is African-American, 24% is Hispanic. Just thought you'd like to know.

10) TV shouldn't bother showing NBA huddles with the coaches miked unless they show the more interesting stuff that goes on in there. This is a business with millions of dollars at stake; don't try and tell me all the coaches talk like Mr Rogers in huddles, because thats not realistic.

9) Bad news for the Bronx Bombers; Hideki Kuroda has gone back home to Japan to pitch for the Hiroshima Carp. Right now, Chris Capuano is penciled in as one of the five Bronx starters-- they're going to wind up over-paying for Max Scherzer.

8) ESPN.com had great stat today; Colorado Rockies hitters had a .902 OPS at home last year, only .636 on road, so how do you judge Colorado players? Do players in high altitude get hurt more, because there is less oxygen in high altitude? These are ther questions teams have to consider when talking trade with the Rockies.

7) Iona's AJ English is leading D-I in scoring at 23.4 ppg; doesn't that seem low for a kid leading the country in scoring? Scoring is still going down in college ball.

6) Another odd stat, this one from ESPN's Dan Dakich: a freshman has made more foul shots than anyone in D-I so far this season. Maryland's Melo Trimble has made 85 of 94 foul shots, thats the most anyone has made to this point. Surprising.

5) Kawhi Leonard has a very unusual hand injury; a doctor told Gregg Popovich that he had been a doctor for 40+ years, had never seen a hand injury like Leonard's. San Antonio is really scuffling right now, they need Leonard back as soon as possible.

4) Was cool to see the Spurs treated the NBA championship trophy like the Stanley Cup last summer, letting every team member have it for a couple days- they can do whatever they like with it. Spurs have so many foreign players, the trophy made its way around the globe all summer long. .

3) West Virginia QB Clint Trickett isn't going to play football anymore, after he had five concussions in 14 months. Young man will follow in his dad's footsteps and go into coaching. his dad is the offensive line coach at Florida State.

2) Atlanta Hawks finally had a home sellout against a lesser opponent, and they go and lose to the Bucks by 30; Hawks really are having a good season, though

1) Utah Utes are doing well in football, but they've lost both coordinators since the season ended, and there are reports on the Interweb that coach Whittingham and the AD are having problems that might not be fixable, to the point where Michigan may hire Whittingham if the Jim Harbaugh thing falls through. Stay tuned.
