    Buffalo? Naw.

    I root for educated football fans to not make poor, hyperbolic, in the moment terrible takes.

    Unfortunately, you let me down most every time.

    It's called home cookin'.

    Denver went for the jugular.

    Despite their defense giving up a ton of yardage in this game I came away very impressed with Denver. Nix was sensational, the coaches went for the kill when they had to have it at the end, and the defense came away with some timely turnovers.

    you can’t tackle a receiver before the ball comes, they have to call that.

    If anything the simultaneous catch was more questionable. And yeah the Denver lineman

    Hey I'd sign up for the Jets losing in the playoffs right about now.

    I wish we had him as our QB. Trust me when I tell you it'd be fun times.

    If Buffalo wants to get there they have to build a TEAM good enough to get the #1 seed. Yes teams have gone on the road to get to a Super Bowl but it's extremely difficult to do. The best chance is to get home field throughout or play as few road games as possible.

    I don't disagree.

    It should be called each time, though, not just when one team is throwing towards the end zone late in regulation or in overtime. It's not a good look for the NFL when they let that stuff go all game and then call it with the game literally on the line. We literally heard the rules expert on the broadcast praise the play a few plays prior where the receiver and DB more or less tackled each other (and they could have gotten the receiver for a facemask call on the defender) as being great football, only for it to suddenly be a penalty now that we're closer to the end zone with a resolution to the game in sight.

    It just gets old watching two teams battle it out over 60+ minutes only to have a predicable flag come flying in when the same style of play has been allowed to happen the rest of the game. I just want consistency in the officiating.

    Yeah but you know how it goes sometimes these owners get impatient.

    Like the Knicks firing Thibodeau.

    Oh 1000% he's a great player but as long as he's on the Bills he has no shot.

    They have never won. I don't see that changing.

    That said he keeps losing to better QB'S and today as good as he played. He was careless. This was his best shot.

    There ya go. There was a video of him at the time getting in his car, putting on his seatbelt, and then some guy in the parking lot went, "Where are you going?" "LATER!" I remember reading he died of a suspected drug overdose but no cause of death because he was banged up. Yeesh.

    Back to the Bills, I get what you're saying.

    well the “rules experts” are stupid, they always kiss the refs. I think there’s a difference between that particular play and the DPI call

    What the heck was Buffalo doing before the half? Shoulda taken a knee and walked in. They gave Denver a free 3 points

    Go Sam. Let's hope he doesn't choke in a big spot. Unfortunately, I have to hear Botox Brady talking Iike he has a giant dick on his mouth all game long. "Great job by this awwfence." "A War Daddy." Good grief, SHUT UP.

    Maybe the sight of watching Sam Darnold going against a freshly rebuilt Patriots team in the Super Bowl will be enough to shock the Jets into actually doing something to fix the problems with the franchise.

    The NFL changes the pass interference rules in the playoffs. The announcers call it “letting them play.” It’s incredibly confusing for the players since it’s different from the regular season. It sucks.

    He’s not a terrible analyst. He’s gotten way better and is pretty good. Greg Olsen is the best in the game and he shouldn’t have unseated him but Brady is good.

    Brady should either be the guy running the Raiders or the guy calling the game in the booth for FOX. Nobody should be able to have both of those jobs.
