The Miami Dolphins have officially ruled out quarterback Ryan Tannehill for Sunday's AFC Wild Card playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers according to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald.

Journeyman quarterback Matt Moore will once again start for the Dolphins. The news was expected after Tannehill was unable to practice on Wednesday but Dolphins head coach Adam Gase had held out hope that Tannehill could return from his knee injury this week. The good news is that Moore has been effective in relief of Tannehill, posting a 105.6 passer rating to Tannehill’s 93.5, and Moore is averaging 8.3 yards a pass to Tannehill’s 7.7. Moore does not pose as much of a running threat as Tannehill but many observers believe he is actually a better fit for the Gase offensive scheme and he has a talented group of receivers to throw to in Jarvis Landry, DeVante Parker, and Kenny Stills.

If the Dolphins manage to make it past the Steelers, there is a good possibility that Tannehill can return next week.

Do not know why you would say this. I would not be surprised if the Lions beat the Seahawks. This Seahawks team does not appear to be the badass as it was a few years back. Burt this is the playoffs, so who knows. If an upset were to occur this weekend, that would be it.

Ezekiel Elliott expecting a bigger workload in the playoffs: "My body feels like it's Week 1. I got fresh legs, fresh body. I'm excited."

Cowboys CB Mo Claiborne said he "felt good" practicing Thursday. Worked individuals and in some team drills. Plans to do more Friday.

I actually have the same feeling, that the Lions could beat the Seahawks. Seattle has not played well. Their defense is not the same without Earl Thomas.

Lines for this weekends games:

Houston -3.5 vs Oakland
Seattle -8 vs Detroit
Steelers -10 vs Miami
Packers -4.5 vs New York


Re: Detroit, I read where they had three outdoor games all season, and was 0-3 in those games.

Also read where the Texans might fire O'Brien if they lose this weekend. Unreal... two seasons, two playoff appearances, and he might get the can.

For your consideration:
Lions allowed opposing QB to complete 72.7% of passes this year, the highest % since the 1970 merger.

Green Bay vs NY is easily the most intriguing matchup this weekend.

Knowing we likely play the winner of that game, who you pulling for?

Giants are a boil that needs lancing. They've beaten us twice already - but I still think we're the better team and want us to prove it. I'd be disappointed if the players don't feel the same way.

In other news... Sean Lee was named 1ST TEAM ALL-PRO, along with Zeke, and the usual suspects from the OL: Smith, Martin, and Fredericks.
