Then Kyle Allen (horrible leg injury)

it’s like the universe is trying to compensate for Alex coming back to play football by injuring every other QB instead.
The Bucs will not be representing in the SuperBowl (obviously) - that will likely come from a team in the NIners division not named the Niners.....if they hadn't had so many injuries - all 4 teams might have made it. Its still a good chance 3 of them do.
The Rams will go as far as Goff plays well - who knows how far that will be....

Gonna ignore the obligatory “How does ESPN have Peyton under contract but not calling MNF” take and say that Beast Mode remains one of the most wholesomely entertaining dudes to have played prosports in the last couple of decades.
