LOLBENGALS

Pretty much everyone figured Marvin Lews was on the way out in Cincy - and they just gave him a 2-year extension coming off a second straight losing season after 2 or 3 one and done playoff runs before that. Seriously, Mike Brown is just a fucking cheap ass moron.

EDIT: Also, Carson Palmer joined Bruce Arians in retiring.

The only reason I don't want the Rams to win is fuck their owner, he doesn't deserve shit.

So... go Steelers?  Are you guys on my side for a change?  Or are most of us just rooting for the Saints to get hot and fuck everyone's shit up?

I'd rather the Saints win (it was the first team I followed as a kid) or the Jags because fuck the football gods, they've shit on us enough this season, give Jacksonville the Super Bowl to make this whole joke season complete.

Fuck New England because Belicheat and Brady.
Fuck Pittsburgh because of Rapistberger.
Fuck Atlanta because we all know they'd just choke anyway.
Fuck the Rams because Stan Kroenke is an utter piece of shit ruining teams on two continents in multiple sports.
Fuck Minnesota because I'm a Packers' fan and Blair Walsh isn't there to ruin their playoffs again.
Fuck Tennessee because their owner is a racist fuckbag (not that that doesn't apply to all the teams but still...)
Fuck Carolina for the same reason and add sexual harasser to the list.
Fuck Kansas City because they are boring.
Fuck Buffalo because of the Bills Mafia on behalf of every folding table ever, and their shitty owner (actually, I think I'd really enjoy it if they won with Tryod Taylor because they've been trying to run him out of town all season despite his decent numbers).
Fuck Philadelphia because their fans are utter assholes who throw batteries at Santa Clause and they gave Mike Vick a giant contract AFTER he got out of prison.

So yeah, New Orleans, Jacksonville and I guess the Bills?

Minn is a great team from a neutral perspective. I think a full blown Andy Reid + Alex Smith win a super bowl redemption thing would be cool so KC is alright in my book too. I'm not even even sure what the Bills bit was about and they are never winning anything but I'd be ok with it.

The rest I'm on board with though I'm not even aware of the Tenn thing for me its just they aren't good enough to bother rooting for and those uniforms are so tacky and shit. Carolina is just fuck Cam Newton for me.


Minn, KC, Jax, NO, Buff is my rooting interests in order. I may watch none of it though, fuck the nfl and a tiny bit fuck football in general.

That's what the Bills do. Farm team for good players who will go on to play well elsewhere. It's comedic.

Pats because they're the best team in the history of football.

I don't follow pro ball much, but I find it interesting that teams are so smitten over Gruden.  The guy has a Super Bowl, yeah, and with the Buccaneers, sure.  But he also has barely a .500 record if you take out the Super Bowl year.  In fact, he had one decent season after the super bowl, 2005, in which his team went 11-5.  Otherwise, his last 5 years he was 34-46.  And he got canned.  Throw in the fact that he hasn't coached in almost a decade and I think he's going to fall on his face in Oakland.

Oh it's almost assured that Gruden's going to fail. I think he's been overrated for years as both a coach and a color commentator. I mean, he's better than Kornheiser was but he's still fucking nails on chalkboard annoying to me. The Raiders probably aren't as talented as they were since many of those guys seemed to have career years in 2016 and have fallen down since then. I'm looking at you, Amari Cooper.

Wow, the Chiefs are so bad. What's worse is that the Titans are equally bad only one point less so. Worst of all, of course, are the refs who just absolutely shit the bed in that game. Like I seriously want someone to check all the refs for concussions. Holy shit, that Mariotta fumble was an actual fumble. Of course, the earhole shot that Kelce took was actually a fumble too so...

But yeah, LOL CHIEFS.

The Rams, OTOH, laid an egg. Not being able to stop the run the entire second half killed them. And look, the FALCONS LEARNED HOW TO RUN THE BALL WITH A LEAD. Too bad that shit's a year too late. Fuckers.

Now we get to see the most boring offense in football (Titans) lose to New England in a goddamn blizzard probably, and the Falcons will probably get to the Super Bowl for a rematch they will lose 500-10.

Rams turned the ball over twice and despite winning almost every other stat, that and time of possession cost them the game.

The Falcons simply ground them out on the running game, and never gave the best offense in the league the time to score. However, that's not going to work against the Philly D who is #1 in the league against the rush, while LA was 27th.

Saints, what in the actual fuck? How do you tackle?

The worst part is that I know exactly what kind of stupid shit he was trying to pull on that last play. He was going for the big, dumb, not even remotely worth trying shoulder slam to get a big hit. Which if he'd connected probably would have broken the reeiver's neck or given him a concussion. Or he could have, you know, actually tried a tackle with both arms and made sure. That was just about the dumbest fucking way to lose a playoff game that I can imagine.

Nah, he just misjudged the timing and ducked under to not get a PI penalty.  He should have played more containment to manage the clock but he is an aggressive rookie (he played for the Utes so I watched him for years).

Yup he totally failed his job took a terrible line because he wanted a highlight reel tackle. Well he got his highlight real time just probably not the way he wants to see it. It was not that the receiver made some weird juke move the guy just missed his tackle..

Given Minnesota's terrible bad luck with field goals in playoff games, he should have taken the PI and taken the chance with a field goal. Instead, he not only missed the tackle, he took out the only other guy who might have been able to catch Diggs.

New rule: if you go helmet to helmet, drawing the roughness penalty, the offender is removed for as many downs/games/seasons as the injured player.

Being able to remove a star player for a 15 yard penalty is pretty shitty (fines are meaningless).

Some excellent analysis regarding the Jags and how they let the Patriots back in with overly conservative and predictable play calling in the second half.

And the age old comment still applies, the prevent defense only prevents you from winning.  Ohhhhh, I see.

I still don't understand why coaches continue to do this every single time. Yes, the Jags def is the bread and butter of that team, but only when it is playing the unpredictable. Once you go into some canned defense to try and contain, you fuck yourselves out of the game.
