Had funny feeling if the Lions would go onto win the Super Bowl, their fanbase would become very UMD like after winning their first Nat’l Championship.
Came here to post this, so much for the North being the best division in football…0-3
To be fair, Green Bay winning in Philly was not the most likely outcome and it was going to be a pretty tough mental turnaround for the Vikings to go from home field advantage possibility to a wildcard game trip out west to win.
The only team that I thought would win but lost was Detroilet.

I'm not sure if I have seen a pro football fan base arrive at a level of arrogance more quickly than Detroilet fans showed. But their team was also rather smug so I guess they were just following along. It was very gratifying to watch the air come out of that balloon last night.
Loving what Jayden Daniels and the commanders are doing this year. Personally tired of the Dan Campbell emotional hallmark card post game. I predict Josh Allen and the Bills over Baltimore but would love to see King Henry win it all. I dislike both NFC qb’s today and wish they could both lose but if I had to pick a favorite I’ll give it to the rams fan base over Philly’s. Rams and Bills win today I think.
Washington is in the NFC Championship game for the first time in 34 year olds.
I’ll gladly cheer for the Redskins next week.
Oh no….
While not a Washington fans, I'm a fan of the Redskins logo and nickname. The Redskins logo was of a Blackfeet Indian chief John Two Guns White Calf designed by Walter "Blackie" Wetzel from the Blackfeet tribal nation. Being that I grew up on the border of the Blackfeet Reservation the logo has more of a meaning. Walter's son Don Wetzel was an All-American basketball player at Cut Bank and I have graduated from high school at Cut Bank with 2 Walter's grandsons and many other Blackfeet students. The Blackfeet Nation is proud of that logo and nickname. And have fought endlessly by the Wetzel family to have the logo and nickname restored.
If people are interested, google Walter "Blackie" Wetzel and you can read some very interesting articles of him, the design and even being friends with JFK.
In the 1st quarter Hurts had a 44 yards TD run and Barkley had a 62 yard TD run but the past two quarters the Eagles have had the same problems the Vikings had last week. They can't block the Rams pass rush.
6 sacks through three quarters including a safety and now Hurts is less mobile with an injury due to all the hits the Rams have put on him.
Possible late hit on the final play between the Rams/Eagles. 110% guarantee a flag would have flown if it was Mahomes. 50/50 if it was Hurts cause of it being in Philly.
That'd kinda be Tua vs Lewis. If he gets inside, I'm done for, but I have the reach/length. And if one remembers "Fight Club:" In the movie Fight Club, Tyler Durden says he would fight Abe Lincoln: "Big guy, big reach.Skinny guys fight till they're burger."
When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.
There’s no issues between @the-rube and I. I consider him a friend outside of this site. We’ve toasted several beer in our OC 10th tour mugs, been on a couple roadtrips, ABR, parties and so on… I think it’s great when friends disagree and aren’t lemmings about it.
Yes he grabbed Lamar's arm when he was still in bounds but the defender dragged him to the ground when he was WAY out of bounds. That is clearly a penalty.
If that was against Mahomes they might have kicked the defender out of the game. 😉 🤣
It is ridicules how the refs call hits on QBs depending on who the OB is.

You are 7 days older than me… but I know I’m fatter and slower than you. And my left shoulder is pretty much at 50%. I would tap out.

Not Mahomes no penalty! 😂 🤣
Youre right though, Cam Newtons career is the most obvious example I can think of who just never drew roughing calls. Meanwhile Brady always did.
Not a fan of that PI. They were battling with each other, and the defender was pushed down. He didn’t grab on and pull the receiver down, either.
Agree, it was a classic Hometown call. As far as games played in snow, unless it’s at Lambeau Field (from a classic tradition standpoint) and I’m NOT a Packer fan…they basically SUCK. I want the skill of players to prevail on a field with proper footing & traction. But, to each their own!
As he’s looking at the ball backpedaling? He’s there first and the guy comes into him. So he has to backpedal faster and let the guy get to it? They’re both hand fighting and he’s backing up. That’s extremely marginal at best
