I'm four for four on my wild card picks. The more experienced teams just happened to be on the road.
Well you know what that means, its all fixed.
lol ... Nah man the NFL is not fixed... Refs can suck no argument there... But it's not fixed... I do think you have to watch refs closely though, because they could get paid off to lean one way, but players are not in on some kinda fix, it would leak out .... Refs are the ones you have to always have to watch closely in pro sports..
Didn't that happen in a NBA basketball game a few years ago?
Its not even that unusual
Home field really only truly shows up in the 2nd round.
That round tends to see the high seeds win and look good more often.
The Wildcard round and Conference Title rounds usually have 2 more evenly matched opponents.
Road Teams always play much better in the 1st and 3rd rounds even if they dont win.
Obviously there are exceptions, but over time it holds to be true mostly.
To hear some Hawks fans take on this, it was the Seahawks fighting to the end spirit that won this game for them, not the botched FG
Oh ffs.
Not you too!
You seem one of the level headed ones around here.
That was PI for sure. I have seen much, much less called.Was glad Minny lost end of day. The PI call on Kam on the final series was 100% pure absolute bullshit.

It doesn't have to be compelling. It was obvious. We all saw it.So if a receiver runs right at the defender, the defender needs to move out of the way?
The argument that you've seen less called isn't compelling. There are lots of bad calls.
I'm pretty sure you just made all of that up.Its not even that unusual

It doesn't matter at this point.Well all watched the play. We clearly saw something different though.

Yay for Alex Smith contributing to the 4 rings and 6 superbowl appearances stat!Teddy Bridgewater, Kirk Cousins, Brian Hoyer, AJ McCarron = 0 playoff wins
vs
Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Alex Smith, Big Ben = 4 rings and 6 Superbowl appearances
...that is essentially why the road teams won.
Yeah... did not much like the call, but I have seen the same called against Packers at times, especially TE running up seam.
