NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

[bksballer89]

Did you feel this way about the Patriots? To be honest they didn't go to this many SBs in a row and they never 3 peated like the Chiefs are about to

They didn’t go to as many Super bowls as the chiefs did. They did 3 out of 4 while chiefs are now at 5 of 6. You can go back on this thread and see I was actually rooting for the chiefs when they last played Philly in the superbowl but I’m tired of it now and that was their 4th appearance. I think when you go to 5 in a really short time period is when I’m over it lol

Easy money for you

KC defense a bit better than Washington's

Without a doubt but Mixon and Cook did what they had to do so hard for me to see Saquon being the one they stop after allowing those 2 to eat well

Mahomes will find a way to win even if Barkley goes off

I sadly agree. Told my brother back in November if they make the superbowl then they are winning it. Hope I’m wrong

It sucks Allen got screwed on that 4th down. He had the 1st. Completely changed the game

Also the prior play on that drive was a shitty spot as well

They could have challenged it

I saw this game more as bad coaching

The Patriots never had the commercial exposure that the Chiefs have. When new Chiefs commercials are released the weekend of their latest playoff game, it not only turns those screws even more, but starts to put into question the never-ending narrow escapes and zebra assistance they seem to receive. Don't upset the league money maker. The Swiftie angle just adds nausea into the mix.

As a Bills fan, the franchise seems cursed. As soon as Brady finally leaves the division, Mahomes is right there to take over. It's almost worse that the Bills can consistently beat them in the regular season, only to lose to them every time in the playoffs. That little boost of hope gets denied every season.

It was a mix. From the coaching aspect, I point mostly to the defensive side. The Bills rarely held the edge position to keep Mahomes from running outside at will. If they weren't going to establish that, then they needed an every down spy. Dorian Williams would've been perfect for that, can really fly.

Challenging spots is a risky use of a challenge. Even the 4th down play was looked at in review and they still blew it. Hell, they challenged that supposed catch inside the 5 and got that one wrong twice as well. When has a receiver with one arm on top of the ball essentially hit the ground with the ball coming in contact with the ground been called a catch ever? If that ball was controlled, it was by the defender. Of catch/pick/incomplete, catch is the one option that should've been instantly ruled out.

Another weird ref miss that I haven't seen anyone discuss was at the 2 min warning in the 2nd quarter. With both the game clock and play clock displayed on the screen, the play clock ran out a full second before the game clock hit 2 minutes, but it was just ignored. Should've been delay of game.

Saquon was in and out of the game a lot. Is he dinged up? Could be a real issue if so.

Depends on control of the ball.

If the receiver has possession and control of the ball, the ball touches the ground and does not move, it's a catch. If the ball is moving when it touches the ground and then the receiver gains control, then it's incomplete because the ground can't assist with the catch.

The 2 week layoff is going to be big for the Eagles roster. Both Jurgens (C) and Dickerson (LG) are nursing injuries. Saquon was seen on the sidelines with a device to rub his calf muscle. He will likely benefit from the rest as well.

The receiver did not have control of the ball, the defender did.

Didn't see the play...but that sounds incomplete if the receiver didn't have control when the ball touched the ground.

Bills and Browns are definitely cursed and it’s not debatable. And yes the commercials and Swifties make it even easier to hate the Chiefs lol

The Chiefs surely will benefit too though. Hope you guys can pull the upset
