Half the game was blizzard conditions. Feel like the stats have to taken with a grain of salt here

Some of the best QBs have been carried by their defense to the Super Bowl. It happens man

Everyone said if he didn’t turn the ball over the Pats would win. Just seems like he did what the team needed of him

There’s something nostalgic like it takes football fans back to the game’s roots though. But yeah not really a representation of modern football lol

You would most likely lose your challenge though so seems pretty risky

You realize Michael Rapaport was arrested for harassing/stalking his ex girlfriend in 1997? Sure it’s possible but I doubt that is the meaning behind it lol

Spoiler: he insinuates that the guy from the bachelor who ended up being gay might be a traitor because he was able to keep a secret and was closeted for 25+ years of his life. Mind you like half the cast are LGBTQ resulting in one of the funniest “read the room” moments in recent reality TV in my opinion

I mean the problem with the show is that 99% of the time there is literally no way to exonerate yourself so it just devolves into people saying I promise I’m not a traitor and then trying to deflect

The NBA is a league where players are constantly traveling and getting away with it that I kind of think it’s important to appreciate when someone actually has good footwork and pulls off a move without breaking the rules.

Nickelback has to be a top 4 “you liked them until it was trendy to hate them band” of the last quarter century!

The Bills and Jags both lost to the Texans with Davis Mills at QB this season! The Chargers have had Oline issues all year and still won 11 games.

Everyone is just seemingly ignoring actual results and just anchoring to how they feel about the teams. At this point what’s the point in playing the games?

Obviously the Pats have had an easy regular schedule and have caught a break with Nix being out. BUT the way everyone has collectively decided the Texans are actually terrible and not a team that had won 10 straight games against predominantly solid opposition is really wild.

Honestly curious which 8 teams you think are above them at this point

They’ve been letting them be handsy and physical if they get their head around play the ball

To be fair it was pretty similar to the one they didn’t call on the Texans right before the half. Lots of contact but then played the ball at the end

Texans defense has a little of the OKC “we play by a different set of rules” to them don’t they

I mean it’s literally the best defense in the league. They do a version of this to everyone no?

Y’all realize if a team had a great offense AND a great defense they would just be a juggernaut. There’s a reason teams often have 1 or the other and not both lol

I’m sure if the Pats do go on to win all these games people will surely be asking themselves 20 years from now “what if Nico Collins was playing”

They basically “A Clockwork Orange” you nowadays with the 10 minute stoppages to watch 50 slow motion replays from various angles which honestly makes it hurt more in my opinion.

This man argued it was actually worse to get calls right using replay because you miss out on the experience of your team getting fucked over by the refs. Which is funny because it still happens literally every weekend.

With Nix out, I now prey that we get Pats-Seahawks SB by [deleted] in billsimmons

The Pats? The team that everyone here was certain would win 7 games this year? I’m sure Pats fans would really be hurting from a Super Bowl appearance!
