NBC was really pimping its peacock only game, I hope it’s a ratings disaster. 

It almost has to be, Wildcard weekend games get about 30 million viewers, I don’t see how anywhere that many people have Peacock and tune in. I think I saw NBC paid $110 million for this one game so I doubt the NFL cares. 

 

I don't recall who said it on KFAN earlier this week, but he flat out said he bootlegged a game on streaming, because he couldn't get the service on a trial/short-term/etc basis. 

I plan on doing the same for the KC game. It's also how I've watched most BUF games this year (although that was just b/c of a lack of network coverage here/out of market)

I forgot I have a peacock subscription for a show I couldn’t find anywhere else, time to get my moneys worth! 😂

As much as my wife wants to watch this game, our kid has a game at the same time, so we wont even be home until late in the 4th quarter.  Guess I will just have to watch the highlights and skip adding a subscription.  Laughing Out Loud

I know NFL teams seem to be get more impatient by the year but firing Mike Vrabel and Pete Carroll cause they didn’t make the playoffs one year is crazy.

The Vrabel thing may or may not be a bit more complicated. Patriots rumors.....

The Bears fired a 10-6 Lovie Smith for a flukie season where that missed the playoffs which never happened typically. It’s worked out pretty well since. /snark

3 degrees (-17 windchill) for the KC-MIA game. That should be a fun one.

I was thinking the same thing when the Packers scored and they zoomed into Jones’ luxury box.

Dallas has beat ONE team with a winning record: the Eagles. 
(Miami also has beat one winning team this season: Dallas).

Sometime between last Sunday and today,  NBC and DirectTV must’ve settled their dispute. Finally get to watch the Sunday night game on NBC since early Nov. I think.

You have to respect Jerry Jones as an owner and forking out the money he does and not holding cities hostage like so many owners do in the 4 major sports.

I will give him that.
And now...who's coaching the Cowboys next year, Harbaugh or Belichek? 😉

Chicago has already retained their head coach and fired the entire offensive staff.

Receivers want low hits taken out of the game. They don't want any physical play without PI being called. Though they can be physical on defenders and getaway with picks. I'll be a defensive backfield defender and supporter.

So much for the talk about the NFC North being weak and that they can't compete in the playoffs.

If Buffalo beats Pittsburgh tomorrow (as a 10 point favorite) the NFC North will be the only division with two teams left.

And if my knowledge is correct, they would FINALLY get KC in Buffalo (not the other way around).

It's impressive cause the NFC North had both teams playing this weekend compared to the AFC North.
