2021 AFC Week 14 Political Rankings (Or, does ANYONE WANT THIS SUPER BOWL BERTH???)

Probably more for the separation from the Wall of Text which was the 7-6 tiebreaker in the AFC and the Dud of the Week, here are the AFC Political Rankings for Week 14:

1) New England

Duh.

2) Kansas City

As much as I can't see it, with Henry out, Tennessee basically is 9-4 on inertia alone (what other choice do you have???).  Someone has got to lose at the end to get Brady vs. Belichick.

3) LA Chargers

More for what happened elsewhere than here -- how serious is that ankle injury to Lamar Jackson?

DUD OF THE WEEK:

NOMINEES:

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS AND NEW YORK JETS:  You would've won, under the same criteria as last week.  You both got eliminated, you've both quit.

Special dispensation to Urban Meyer, who if he stays one minute past Black Monday in the NFL (January 10th, 2022), is probably going to house-clean the entire operation with the exception of the Khan family in Jacksonville.

LAS VEGAS RAIDERS:  Oh.  My.  God.  What has happened to this shitshow?  And how the Hell did you get rigged to beat Dallas???

HOUSTON TEXANS:  Who would be accused of not having any pride nor professionalism if there was any of either left in that entire franchise...

If you want to see why favorites went 12-1 Thursday and Sunday for the week, both against the number and straight up, these four teams and their NFC counterparts are a large reason why.  You had Jacksonville, the Jets, the Giants, the Lions, the Bears, the Raiders, the Texans in separate games -- that's 7 right there...

DUD OF THE WEEK WINNER:

CHASE CLAYPOOL, for committing a "sports bribery"-level offense against him own team, celebrating a first down to drain critical time off the clock and ensure his Steelers lost to the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday Night.

In short, he threw a National Football League game, and I'd have cut him within an hour of the end of the game and ordered an investigation -- especially after Claypool was benched by his coach for a taunting penalty in the first half.

That shit is so "Oh really???  Well I'll show you motherfuckers...", it's not even funny.
