Really. Do you even watch the NFL. Tell me, how many games will the Patriots and Bills play this playoffs. Oh right, one!


Let a German translate from JonnyP to FootballFan_1: The NFL aligns with most sport from around the world where playoffs are consisting of single chance playoff games. Only some mainly US Sports do series like best of 3, 5 or 7.

So, he is damn right with his statement.


Makes a hella lot more sense

Packers over Chiefs.

I'm really out on a limb, I know.

I think the 9ers beat the Cowboys, then they're toast.


I'd like to take a moment to maintain order and sanity in this thread. Also gloat that I was right, of course.

The 9ers out-classed the Cowboys, who Mike McCarthy-ed all over themselves, and I expect another good showing in GB this coming weekend, but they'll ultimately be sent home.

I'm a fan of everything they've got aside from Janeane Garofalo at QB.

Additionally, the Chiefs were always fine, maybe just not taking the regular season seriously enough.

I won't go out on a limb in their favor against Buffalo, though I do like them, because Josh Allen looks great. That'll be a fun one to watch.

I'm sticking w the final four I listed above. Quarterbacks are important, NFL parity is overhyped.

Cincinnati vs. Tennesse - Although the Titans are getting Henry back I don't think that run game will be enough to overcome the emerging Mad Bomber Joe Burrow
Winner : Cincinnati.

San Fransico vs. Green Bay - I like the 49ers as a stout team & you can't trust Arron Rogers (11-9 in the playoffs). Rogers performances in 'big' games is less than desirable but that being said I think the hallowed field of Lambeau field & expected wind chill of zero with possible snow showers is a lot to overcome.
Winner : Green Bay

Los Angeles (Rams) Vs. Tampa Bay - The Rams are a classic example of the NY Yankees syndrome of trying to buy a championship & history shows that very seldom works on the football field. West coast teams traveling east have a horrible record (16-38, 29% win rate since '05) & the Rams will have to deal with the G.O.A.T., Tom Terrific & a team fully versed in winning playoff games with Tom at QB.
Winner : Tompa Bay

Buffalo Vs. Kansas City - To me this is possibly the closet game of the weekend (The closet point spread of all the games at 2 pts.). I admit to a certain bias here as I really don't enjoy watching the Chiefs play school yard football. Mahomes is a fragile QB with several concussions in his very young career & playing school yard ball has to be a concern. The Bills seem to be 'on' & of all the playoff teams (including those eliminated last week) Kansas Cities defense ranked number 7 out of the 12 teams & Buffalo Ranked number 1 of all the playoff teams. Silly Mahomes ... Tricks are for kids.
Winner : Buffalo

Ugly game but I'll take it! They were only going to win if it was ugly.

Both yesterday games not so pretty.

But both of them worth watching. Both with a last second FG.

Both 1st seed eliminated. Sometimes it really feels that is better not to have a week of before PO starts.

So if Tampa wins today it will be all home games for -G.O.A.T- and company till SB. If Rams win they will have final rehearsal for SB next week. Would like that -G.O.A.T-/Gronk duo win one more SB, but will also be glad they don't (already have to much )

And I am cheering for Bills today, no matter I am Pats fan. Josh Allen is a beast, for me he is beast for beast Mahomes.

I am hoping the Rams win. 21 times a team has swept another team in the regular season and met again in the playoffs. Of those 21 the team that swept the other won 14 times. That means 66% of the time they beat another team 3 times in a season. Obviously not a guarantee but the Niners are in the Rams head for sure.

If it is vs TB that is ok too, they are down 2 weapons (Brown and Godwin) and the story line of -G.O.A.T- and Jimmy G will be there.
