That definitely was a big win, and the Seahawks and Saints have easier schedules heading down the stretch than the 49ers. The Niners play at the Saints this Sunday and finish the season against the Seahawks in Seattle.
Seahawks are toast (as far as winning the NFC). They were exposed tonight. The Rams could get in as a 6 seed now and face the Packers. Seattle will probably get the 5 seed and maybe get the Eagles if the Cowboys tank.
What caused the collapse of the rams? In my opinion, this NFL playoffs will be VERY exciting. There's no clear front runner. Everyone says Baltimore is a clear cut favorite and SF makes a great case...but the playoffs are a new season...a one and done. Coaches alter play styles in the playoffs. Players have to fight the nerves. There's no shoe-in for the AFC or NFC. This really is going to be a new season in itself. Also looking forward to today's games
Yeah. I didn't see last week's loss to the Falcons coming. I also thought the Rams (after getting back into it) wouldn't fall flat against the Cowboys. And, the Niners barely escaped disaster yesterday. So, assuming the Hawks win today, it all comes down to who wins next week between Niners and Hawks. I am pulling for Philly in the East.
Good job. That said, not many predicted the Pats would miss out on a 1st Round Bye. Anyway... Any Early Predictions? Bills at Texans. Titans at Patriots Vikings at Saints Seahawks at Eagles Opening Betting Lines: Wild-Card Game Spreads Buffalo Bills at Houston Texans (-3.5) Tennessee Titans at New England Patriots (-4.5) Minnesota Vikings at New Orleans Saints (-6) Seattle Seahawks (-1) at Philadelphia Eagles Seahawks seem like the only Road Team with a shot. And if they win, they would get Frisco for the 3rd Time.
The way Tennessee runs the ball and with AJ Brown...I think the pats are going to struggle. I love the Pats but they are going to have to make massive changes just to win the game.
We will be at sea when (if) the Chiefs play in the AFC Championship. Thanks, Dolphins! You were losers, but really came through for KC. Here's to watching a playoff game on a big ship. It's a lot of fun and I highly recommend.
I watched the world series on a cruise ship. The ship has minutes of delays on the TV though. People who bought in-ship WIFI were giving me updates quicker than the TV. Kinda ruined it for me. But have fun! Cruises are a blast. I'll be on one in August.
A ton of fun - we've seen a Superbowl and two playoff games on a ship. We actually sat next to some Pats fans on the Lido deck during a playoff game a few years back. It got noisy!
A lot of people seem to think the Titans can do well today. The line keeps dropping in their favor. Some books have dropped from NE -5.5 to -4.
Patriots really showed the NFL what a bust that they were in the 2019 Season. Brady should go to the Chargers (and have Gronk come out of retirement to join him). What sad ending to Brady's Patriots Career. His last pass will be a Pick 6 that sealed the LOSS in a Home Playoff Game.
Everybody has already forgotten about that 25-point Comeback against the Falcons in the SB. That is forgotten. The only thing that anybody is going to remember about Tom Brady is today's game. A LOSER (at Home) in the playoffs.
Does anybody give a chance to any of the Road Teams this weekend? All Home Teams Favored. Saturday: Minn. at SF (-7) Tenn. at Balt (-9.5) Sunday: Hou at KC (-9.5) Sea. at GB (-4.5)
Was a bit nervous that the shoe was going to go fly into the TV, but it just got thrown on the floor. What a wild ride! I've never seen a game like that. Nobody has, I guess. We will be watching the Championship game from a ship, off the coast of Jamaica. Win or lose, we'll be on a cruise. Go Chiefs! (said the disgruntled Bears fan.) So happy for my husband, though. Chiefs fans definitely need some love. Mahomes is a freak.
Don't worry, the Chiefs will make it to the superbowl just fine... I just don't know whether they will end up beating Green Bay or not... I think Green Bay's "fabled legendary history" is in their favor.
The game was contrived that way to elicit your very reaction to it. The whole first quarter, the Chiefs were bumbling buffoons who couldn't hold onto a football to save their ass. Then, they get a good kick return which magickally "makes everything click", then the Texans (for only god knows what reason) decide to do a fake punt on a 4th and short deep in their own territory while leading 24-7, then they become bumbling buffoons who can't hold onto a football to save their ass, then I blinked and the Chiefs were up 41-24... No different than any WWE match where one guy is completely dominating the other and then all of a sudden the other is magickally dominating the first... KC vs GB superbowl ("re-match" of first superbowl) to celebrate the 100th year of the NFL... mark my words.
I like Green Bay. No way in hell the NFL allows anything other than a KC/GB "re-match" of superbowl 1 for their 100th year... Frisco is only there to lead up to the "re-match" between them and the Packers. The NFL is all about hype and storyline, not about who is better than who.
