NFL 2020 Week #17: Coin, Meet COVID. COVID, Coin.

Nothing is as aggravating as picking football games in Week 17, what with all the uncertainty surrounding which players are playing and which aren't and which are going to start but then sit after a couple of 1st downs. That's why Jay and Dre started flipping a coin for giggles to see how much better a literal coin flip would do in the NFL's final regular-season action. Now, enter the coronavirus. What was already a maddening exercise becomes that much more difficult, as several teams are battling COVID outbreaks as they try to prepare for the playoffs. The boys and the Coin do their best to find the surest plays for Sunday. There will be a ten-win team in the AFC that will miss the postseason, even with the extra Wild Card slot. Will it be the Colts, Titans, Dolphins, Ravens, or Browns? In the NFC, which squad--the Cards, Bears, or Rams--will fall out of the playoffs? And who will finally claim the putrid NFC East?
