Packers, Lions, Vikings all one-game flame-outs.
So much for the NFC North dominance angle.
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.
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.
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.
“Good pace, a lot of north and south, or it could be east and west, I’m not sure but either way…” Wooger

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.
I’m a Collinsworth fan… though sometimes he talks out of his backside especially when it comes to receivers.

I would be very ok with never hearing collinsworth call another game. So much yammering saying nothing
Philly has to have the whiniest piss and Moan about something every play fan base in the league and can’t think of a close second. Good lord.

Snow football is the bestest football.
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.
Snow football is the bestest football.
Basically a twelfth defender, in my opinion.
Of course as I say that the Rams rip off two big plays in a row.
Snow football is the bestest football.
As fan in the stands... yes. As a player on the field, not so much. Or only after a win, it's fun.
Basically a twelfth defender, in my opinion.
It's an advantage to the offence. Besides kicking fg's and pat's.
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.
Kyren Williams fumbles and gives the Eagles offense a chance to get a big TD starting with the ball at the Rams 10 yard line.
rams can’t get out of their own way. Just keep giving it back to the eagles

I agree with Karlsson, it hurts the passing game. So, in general (in today's NFL's pass happy game) weather is a defender.

Running Backs matter especially in the playoffs/bad weather.
See: Barkley.
Dagger.

If the LAR defense could just avoid giving up 50+ yard plays...

Ill trust my QB and my WR’s knowing their routes over the defense trying to read those routes in weather like what we are seeing.
It's not that. It's footing and grip on the slippery football.

This is what I was getting at. If you have a good run-blocking line and a good RB, snow is great! If you rely more on the pass, snow is tough.
Bateman!!!!! How about those Gophers!!!!
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."

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.
Agreed.

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.
If you got inside, I have no body fat. A good hit or two, oof. 😉

Not Mahomes no penalty! 😂 🤣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.

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.
Ridiculous PI call against the Ravens gifts the Bills a TD.
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!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.
I thought it was a good call. defender stepped in front of the receiver and deliberately slowed down.
I really hate how they call grounding. Allen is making zero effort to get the ball to his guy and it doesn’t get back to the LOS.
I thought it was a good call. defender stepped in front of the receiver and deliberately slowed down.
He’s allowed to have that space though. Ravens really only have themselves to blame so far regardless. Have not been great in any facet today
No he isn't. Especially when he isn't even trying to play the ballI thought it was a good call. defender stepped in front of the receiver and deliberately slowed down.

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
Where did the ball land? Did the defender at any point try to play the ball? I thought it was a pretty easy callAs he’s looking at the ball backpedaling? He’s there first and the guy comes into him.

Baltimore may need pj to come by and give a the ball is the program speech.
Saw the replay, and the replay, and the replay, that was a hometown call.
And THE FITZMAGIC IS REAL RIGHT NOW. What a turnover!
