Detroit held on for a win despite not playing their best and Green Bay was obviously impressive in pounding the Cowpies on the road. Hard not to notice that happening right in the NFCN. CJ Stroud seems to be the real deal. That's what popped for me over the weekend thus far.

Snow shovelers. Damn, a LONG way to go. And why are they going up? Wouldn't it make more sense to start at the top and move down? I don't know. Just me I guess.

Good ol' lake effect snow. Had it from two massive lakes when living in the U.P. of Michigan (Lake Superior and Lake Michigan). It gets stupid how much can be dumped in a one-to-two-day period.

Same position, damn near same route, same team, same tackler, same knee....We worry so much about helmet hits, but these fucking knee shots have to go. Someone needs to go Annie Wilkes on Kerby's knee.

Forgot about Rice!

Agree @MB, the knee shots have to go. It took out Higbee and TJH too...

They talked about it last night, no blows to the head and so now they go low.

Came here to post Puka. Agree with your whole list and especially Nakua. At the risk of blasphemy, he looks a lot like JJ out there. Especially as a rookie.

Kupp went from 2,000 yards to the Rams third option FAST (Puka, Williams).

6-5 255 vs 6-1 203,  if you dont go low you are going to get killed.  I hate to see knee injuries,  but when you have guys giving up 50#s and trying make sure they bring the guy down, you are going to go low, especially now that about any attempt to break up a pass by going high will draw a 15 yard penalty and the risk of being tossed from the game.  the league is creating these issues through their efforts to make the game safer.  even a little higher up in the thighs is going to create an injury risk for a smaller lighter DB.  play within the rules and play to protect the other guy 2nd, but protect yourself first IMO.

want to cut down on these types of risks,  quit throwing the ball over the middle knowing that the receiver is going to be at risk.

& out pops Jimmy’s inner-safety, this guy clearly leads w/ his helmet, Joseph is a pos.

He is a pos and there should be more raging re: how he plays the game.

What goes around comes around.

Everybody is right here. Joseph is a piece of shit, dirty player who should be suspended. The NFL also needs to review the rules, as it was brought up by Collinsworth during the game, but ANY player to a man would rather get their bell rung, miss a game or two in concussion protocol, than take a snipe shot to their lower bodies which could be career ending, much less missing the season with a blown out knee. All out snipe shots to the legs and lower body have no place in the game.

Tampa Bay...wow. incredible job by that entire organization this year. Everybody had them pegged as one of the worst teams in the league and they are about to knock off the defending Conference Champs with Baker Mayfield at QB and a prior loser at head coach in Bowles. I know the Wilfs didn't think enough of Spytek to hire him two years ago, but he is certainly deserving of running a team as GM after this.

What no credit to the Tampa GM Licht? Spytek is 1 of his 2 assistants…

 Tampa loss week 1 looks different now.

The eagles and cowboys getting bounced on wildcard weekend isn't something I had on my bingo card 4 weeks ago.

Its shallow, petty and cheap ... Whatever.

I enjoyed watching it happen.

Certainly, just as it relates to the Vikings we passed on Spytek who I think has done a great job in helping identify talent and shape that roster. Assistant GM and before that VP of player personnel....you know, experience that actually counts (go ahead, everybody throw their fit)

I am always happy to see the Eagles season end. Happiest moment of Wildcard weekend for me.

Eagles have some experienced, older plays who might have played their last game. 
 Fletcher Cox, Kelsey. Hell, Siriani is supposedly on the hot seat

 Yes, makes my heart sing. 

 Glad for Baker, good fit this year with the Bucs. They were $80mm in dead cap and he took a team friendly deal. Time to pay the man now. 

 Guess we should add Baker, Devonta Smith and Josh Allen to the All Wildcard Weekend list of players.

Didn't the Eagles start 10-1? What a collapse. Couldn't happen to a bigger group of fan dipshits and this piece of garbage:

Epic collapse and ranks up there with the Cowboys getting bounced game 1.

Too bad GB won or I would have had my trifecta of joy.

This was interesting. Add Jalen Hurts to the list of QBs who just might not be that awesome.

You do have to wonder if the Eagles might have pulled that out last night if AJ Brown was able to play. 

But every team is fighting injuries in Dec/Jan - Eagles were not different this year. They didnt look all that interested in that game tbh.
