NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

[fightinfunbags]

Just went through the eagles schedule, you can make a case that dak was the only respectable qb they played. They went against Rogers but he got hurt. Outside of that they did not play a top 10 QB in football. There's a huge difference in Mahomes and all these other QBs you played all season. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME

No doubt. You can hang on to whatever narrative that makes you feel better. The Chiefs haven’t seen a match of quality secondary that can win individual matchups coupled with a top 3 pass rush in the league.

-No holding on the final mahomes run.
-no block in the back on final punt return call
-Burrow intentional grounding (RB 3 yards away)
-Ely Apple holding or PI call and that right after chiefs get two third down plays That’s just the final 4-5 min

Even with the above tweet, if just one of those blown calls gets called the game ends differently. That is the nice thing typically about home field advantage tho in most sports. It's why i typically take the home team in any sports bet.

Did the Bengals do anything wrong last night or was it all on the refs?

Sure, but to get THAT many wrong calls is surly suspicious all in the favor of 1 team. It was as odd as that Lakers ending vs Boston. Did LA do anything wrong that night? Probably. Doesn't change the fact that anytime that many calls gets screwed up in a row it effects the outcome.

I agree, it was a pretty easy schedule. Gotta give them credit for dismantling opponents though week in and week out. It will be a different animal facing Mahomes. It would be another big break if he wasn't 100% though.

I see you only mentioned "missed" penalties in Cincy's favor but fail to mention all the ones that went in their favor and there were plenty of those too. So considering KC outplayed Cincy I would say the better team won.

Yeah your schedule is what it is but acting like this going to be a walk in the park because you played mediocre qbs damn near all season is just funny to me

I guess the refs are responsible for the Bengals inability to protect Burrows based on some of the things I'm reading online

Who said a walk in the park? Most NFL games are one-score contests.

Been like that for years, even bolstering it a bit the last couple seasons. They had a great run last year where the OL overperformed, you could say. Still a major weakness for Cincy.

"Burrowhead my ass!"

Gotta great laugh when Kelce said that last night.

At the end of the game? Which ones

How much money did you lose betting on the game last night?

The Bengals were outplayed. The Chiefs were the better team.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Throughout the game. Point is if Cincy doesn't get the fluke fumble by Mahomes, KC goes up by 10 or 14. Cincy got a lot of breaks all playoffs. Both teams got favorable calls all game.

Yep tell Burrow to take better care of the ball and for his OL to block better. Those seemed like the two biggest factors. Both defenses played well.

I had a large bet on the Philly winning, and a small bet on Cincy winning lol

I don't think so, it was a tie game with 2 minutes left and one single missed or non intentional grounding call down the stretch by the terrible refs would have changed the outcome.

[fightinfunbags]

Your post indicated that

No it didn’t. I didn’t mention anything like that. I said the Eagles are the better team and more complete team and that 6 or 7 times out of 10 if these teams play, the Eagles win in my opinion.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Cincy is going to have to either draft really well or sacrifice one of their weapons/Defensive players to upgrade that OL. Higgins is a FA. Burrow and Chase going to get paid in a couple years, they better do it now. The best SB window is a QB on a rookie contract, add in a star WR on a rookie contract.
