I hate the Eagles but wish the Vikings had Howie Roseman.

I think Washington outpunted their coverage in any measure during the playoffs. They were the underdog feel good story with the rookie QB and a new owner who was not Daniel "I'm an assclown with money" Snyder. They felt good.

And I was really pulling for Josh Allen Dalvin's little brother James, comeback kid Hamlin and the rest of the Bills. They damn near did it.

The Vikings D was not in this league of the final four this year gang. We have some serious work to do to get to the next level. We're not there yet.

However, by watching these two games...we're not that far off. We are off, but certainly closer than we had been in recent years.

Hope springs eternal if you are a Vikings fan, because August always comes.

When the world lines up to cheer against the chiefs...the iggles fans say not so fast.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

I don't think Philly 'stole' anything, they were gifted some things that changed the dynamic of the game. I mean, Barkley rushed for 115 yards and 3 TDs regardless. Hurts was efficient and the Eagles could afford to be more conservative in their gameplan being gifted those turnovers early and then there was no way that Washington was going to get back into this game with the rushing attack that Philly can lay out there. The Giants should be made to take a season off for the idiocy of letting Saquon Barkley leave. Honestly, I think Detroit was the best team in the NFC, but injuries decimated their D. Otherwise, I don't see them losing in the playoffs. Thank God for small favors, lol. Wink

And with that, all interest in the Super Bowl is gone. For me anyway. No young rookie sensation in Daniels, no 5th attempt at a Super Bowl victory with the Bills. There's really no story at all, just a game it seems we've seen a hundred times. Good day to go snowboarding I guess. 

I have to say Kansas City is amazing. They can look like shit all season, but they always seem to pull it together for the playoffs. It makes me wonder if Andy Reid might not save certain things for the postseason.

This was Buffalo's year: but Allen was a little erratic early in that game yesterday and then they got strangely conservative. Tough to be a Bills or Lions fan this morning, what COULD have been.....

I noticed that too. They were playing not to lose.
