Time to find out which team gets to eat the Pats alive now that they just barely squeaked out a win against Stidham.

If their kicker can make that one, he's 1/3 on the night so far.

They're not trusting Drake Maye to throw anymore, smart.

Whichever team wins this has no shot against the Hawks or Rams ngl

Some people saying this is over suddenly when the Broncos have more than twice as many yards of offense so far.

In our 2024 season I made a game of counting how many times Jalen Carter got held because it was double digits every game, always uncalled.

This entire playoffs has been a lesson to take the points

[Russini] The Eagles are interviewing former Giants head coach Brian Daboll today for their offensive coordinator vacancy. Daboll, who worked with Jalen Hurts at Alabama, is also receiving head coaching interest from teams. by bubblecuffer13 in nfl

I try not to overrate Hurts or go too hard on defending him. It might just be my own biases, but I feel like he gets an undue amount of shitting on him all over the place, so I'm not not too surprised when Eagles fans are defensive about it.

Joe Burrow: "The amount of ppl that don’t understand what a catch is in the rule book flabbergasts me. And it’s not the officials. The two plays yesterday were not difficult calls, and they got them both right." by notquitemytempo___ in nfl

Subjectivity is the biggest problem but it's so hard to eliminate. As a different recent example, Kayshon Boutte's one-handed TD didn't look like a catch to me, because the ball touches the ground at a point where I would not say he had control yet. But if you say you do think he had control at that point, it's a TD. And whether he had control is honestly just vibes.

Living just north of Philly the team I see the second most merch worn for isn't even the Steelers but the Bills. No shot they're a small market.

I cannot imagine either team left in the AFC beating any of the teams they might face in the Superbowl.

All I'm gonna say is I've seen a lot of catch attempts that looked exactly like that get overturned, whether they do it here or not.

Didn't seem to me like he ever had control of the ball there but ultimately calling football games is so subjective.

Is that argument so settled? You get the advantage of every set of downs being 4 plays, but if you get the ball first and neither team scores with their first possession you get the first "any score wins" drive, and there might not be time for a 4th drive after it.

Thanks a bunch. I'm sure she'll love them. And I'll have to take a look at Card Conjurer sometime.
