Diff people diff rules.

I guess it was too greedy to keep the streak of entertaining playoff games going tonight 

[Vanimal46]

The Pats are the final boss of fraudulent teams this season. It's very evident they're not used to playing good teams. 

[Parfigliano]

Buh bye SDG.

[Vanimal46]

I've seen this re-run before. Herbert channeled his inner Kirko/Darnold and is curling up in the fetal position coughing up the ball multiple times.

The whole offense was doing a good MN impression. The O-Line looked confused and on ice skates too.

Also, does anyone other than the Harbaughs think Greg Roman is a good OC? He's not. He's awful. And not just because Collinsworth was unloading on them regarding letting NE sub out it's clearly tired defenders. But partly because of that.

It's hard to do less with generational QB talents than Greg Roman, especially in the playoffs.

For sure. I know both of his past head coaches have probably said they want to look like the 1985 Bears with swarming defenses and ball control offense. But neither team had Walter Payton, yet both had QBs 20x better than Jim McMahon, who actually wasn't a very good QB. Sorry, this is 40 years later, play modern football please.

In some fairness, they're on their like 9th and 119th offensive linemen out there.

Also true, but Roman's incompetency goes back years in the playoffs. 3 games with Lamar resulted in 3 points, 12 points, and 3 points. His 2 games with Herbert generated 20 points (woah!) and 3 points.

Agreed, wasn't a major defense...but the Charger offensive line health has basically ended any real chance they had.

They simply can't block anyone.  The Pats are in for a rude awakening against Houston much less Buffalo.

The Texans defense is gonna beat Rodgers to a pulp tonight. He better get rid of the ball instantly when it’s snapped to him

Well, that's the one thing he does. But, yeah, I don't see Pitt winning this one.

The Texans could make it to the Super Bowl… Love their defense 

[flpmagikat]

Great start for Pittsburgh!

[Aggies7]

Would like to see Pitt lose. Seemed like frauds all season

My scorching hot take is if Pittsburgh loses, Tomlin steps down and takes a year off joining a TV pregame crew

They remind me of the bears, so maybe not frauds, just an indicator that there aren’t really any great teams this year. Seahawks are for sure most complete. The pats are generally solid as well.

I think Denver is real, too, but I haven't seen them play a game all year.

Ha same basically. Idk, I’m not real sold on their pass game. I guess I see them as the best version of the bears and Steelers, but similar(plus defense, plus run game, efficient special teams, erratic pass games)

Seattle has an elite defense, great run game, efficient qb, a top 3wr, and great special teams. Pats are the only other team that’s a plus in all categories as well for me.

[Parfigliano]

How did Houston win 12 games with this "offense" ?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I’m a big fan of pedigree… which means I would have the Rams in there.  They play the Bears next week which will be a fun game (for me anyway).

Yeah, the recent struggles are their only real fault. I’d rank them:

1)Seattle

2)pats

3)rams

4)bills

5)Denver

6)niners(maybe lower w/o kittle)

7)Chicago 

8)winner of this game

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Almost a Lynn Swann catch there..  and then the strip sack (nice)

[Parfigliano]

Rodgers last game.

I don’t know how the NFC Championship Game isn’t Rams-Seahawks, but I have been wrong about predictions for basically the whole season

No doubt. I think the barrage of injuries have finally caught up to the niners. And I just don’t think the bears are that great in any area. Stafford just has to not play down to them.

Yeah he can’t do it anymore. Still great to see him beat the ravens last week. For as unlikable as he’s become he was fun to watch for awhile.

Steelers playing flag football or touch football or something, Texas guy walks into end zone 

[flpmagikat]

Just an absolute collapse, wow.
