Needless to say I don't have an issue with it...

My main concern i have for SF next week is the secondary. I think they will have lots of trouble stopping Smith and Brown

There season is coming to an end next week

The NFL is recognized as an "entertainment" business rather than a sport, like the WWE

"Former NFL superstar and Super Bowl XXXVII winner Dwight Smith admitted in a sports radio interview last year that the winner of major NFL games are predetermined by the league and that both teams know literally every play that the other team will run."

Is this supposed to be taken seriously?

Hopefully he still get the bag he was going to get prior to this injury

Dallas RB Pollard broke leg in loss, sources say

Cowboys Pro Bowl running back Tony Pollard will need surgery after fracturing his left fibula Sunday against the 49ers, sources said.

LOL.

Such BS.

There is no way the league narrative would allow the Bills to lose, let alone get blown out.

No.

Nope lol

Since he put superstar and Dwight Smith in the same sentence, I'm assuming no?

Down goes Buffalo, Down goes Dallas...

I have to say it was a good day...

All props to the Bengals. They dominated that game.

The other three games I barely watched lol. Even though I hate the Niners, it was good to see Jerrah's Team come up short.

 

[shopson67]

Can’t disagree. I like Cook but the Josh Allen doing it all can only get your so far…gotta adjust

Need to invest in that o-line some more (or at least call more runs).

On a side note, I think the NFL needs to leave these coaching rosters alone until after the playoffs are complete. Distracting assistants with interviews in the midst of preparing for these huge games isn't fair to the playoff teams.

 

[shopson67]

Point is the snow is not the reason it went under.

It went under because the Bengals defense played out of their mind and dominated the LOS

Dominated is a bit strong, but Josh missed a lot of throws where Burrow didn't really miss any.

Bengals as a whole did dominate though. I do find it funny that for the second time in two playoff games, two undermanned offensive lines didn't draw a single holding call all day vs the Bills. Not a deciding factor, but given that holding happens virtually every down? Seems that it may have been a point of "de-emphasis" for the league thus far in the playoffs.

The lack of holding calls may be a product of the Bills pass rush disappearing after they lost Miller.

It's a factor, but I don't know how often he was the one drawing holds this year. Miami was second worst in the league in holding penalties this year. Cinci was much better, but without three starters? Let's just say both far exceeded the performance I expected out of them.

[Heatles84]

Think he’d lose the power edge at 205?

Skillwise, Izzy had that fight won.

But, he could not take those bombs.

Would that still be the case at Light Heavyweight?

I'd think so. If you have a drastic weight cut, you also tend to be sluggish. I think Pereira would still maintain his power at LHW. My worry for him is if he fights a guy like Magomed Ankolaev who has a solid wrestling background; Pereira's ground game is nearly non-existent and he'd get smothered by guys that are around his size.

Heard a little about this. The guy's being a bit of an asshole...

Shannon Sharpe addresses heated altercation with ja Morant and Grizzles

"They didn't want this smoke, Dave." Sharpe said of what happened. "They do all that talking and jockeying and I ain't about that jockeying. It started with Dillon Brooks. I said he was too small to guard LeBron. He said 'F' me. I said 'F' you back.

"He started to come at me and I said, 'you don't want these problems.' And then Ja came out of nowhere talking. He definitely didn't want these problems. The the dad came and he obviously didn't want no problems."
