Wild Card Playoff Games

[msgkings322]

So out of 6 games only 1 great one really

 

[Battlelyon]

The Rams had the second most one point wins in season in NFL history, I guess it was only fitting that they would lose by 1 points in the playoffs.

 

[DetroitDevil]

To me.

Tampa makes this.........................................

To get steamrolled by a Destined for glory Detroit squad

They put fentanyl in cancucki weed now?

 

[Beengay fudgepackers]

The bears looked better than the cowboys vs the packers. The bears grasped defeat from the jaws of victory against the Lions, Bucs, and Browns. with those wins, they are in the playoffs. They have two top ten picks in this next draft, and I’ve read speculation that the falcons might send them another for fields (kinda doubt it). Watching this years playoffs gives me great hope for next year, even if we take Caleb Williams.

This game looks over already. Should have listened to you guys!

Glass half empty... Eagles and Cowboys fans wallowing in their own misery
Glass half full... Eagles and Cowboys fans rejoicing in their rival's misery.
On to next year.

Y'all know if RTK was still here, he'd be pointing out how great Davonta Smith was and the fact that the Eagles season lasted 1 day longer than the Cowboys did. Actually, he would disappear for a month and then do that.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

And Brandon Graham and Fletcher Cox and maybe Lane Johnson as well. 4 guys that are all time Eagles may have just played their last games as Eagles.

I think so too. It's gonna be tough to replace that leadership, let alone the talent. Last night, Graham and Cox were arguably the Eagles best players on defense. A couple of other guys up front played a good too like Sweat and Williams but those two led the way. I felt bad for Kelce at the end of that. You could tell how hard he was taking it.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

I’m not worried about Hurts long term. If he doesn’t bounce back that’s different. I think it will be announced in the next few days that he’s getting a knee clean out.

I agree. He kept saying the knee was fine and all that but it looked pretty obvious for a good chunk of the season that he just wasn't 100%. Guys were running him done pretty easily at times. They weren't doing that last year. The play calling was also grossly incompetent. Especially down the stretch and last night when everybody with half a brain knew and said they had to run the ball with Swift and Gainwell more even if they weren't getting chunks. If nothing else, just establish it and get Hurts some easier looks so they could keep the defense off the field.

9er's Bills SB would be nice.

Lions/ Bills would be nicer but I doubt that happens.

He’s just running more cautiously than he used to. I’ve called this from day one. Those hits start to take effect on these qbs and the running is the best part of his game, without that he isn’t good.

The truth

Why is he carrying his handwarmer lol...

Luckily, he was able to continue playing (1 punt, a few PK holds).

 

[shopson67]

missed tackles is a large part of todays football. That sailed with the money, and restricted practice requirements to keep players upright.

Few players actually tackle any more (and the ones that do appear elite). So many just lead with their shoulder and just try to knock the guy down. Actual wrap tackles are a rarity.

 

[shopson67]

So....this coming weekend it's...

NFC Final 4...
Packers @ 49ers.....& Bucs @ Lions


AFC final 4 will be Texans @ Ravens....& Chiefs @ Bills


My picks are in bold.

They really are.

 

[eaglesnut]

Hurts showed more heart running to the locker room than he did on the field.

He looks completely worthless without a coordinator that can do all the thinking for him.

 

[shopson67]

Punter’s hamstring went Karen at Target. “Oh no. We aren’t doing that today.”

Standing around in 10 degree weather waiting for your handful of snaps, has to be tough to keep those hamstrings warm and loose.

 

[Darrell Green Fan]

The Dallas game was over early at 27-0, but even they didn't get embarrassed the way the Philadelphia Eagles got embarrassed. Missed tackles, inept offense, just the worst performance from the team I hate even more than the Cowboys. Their fans were pretty chesty in October, now they have to wonder if their team didn't give another Carson Wentz contract to their QB.

 

[shopson67]

Allen running away from those trailing DBs had a bit of a "Run Forrest, Run" flavor.

Have to admit, the hater in me loved the outcome of all the blowout games this weekend. Of course, my Rams had to be the ones to lose the only tight game of the weekend....on to FA and the draft?!?!
