How about them Bills!

That was awesome!

You're Canadian, shhh.

Both games were fun to watch. We're off to divisional rounds now! Chiefs against the Bills and Commanders against the Eagles!

Sadly the pre-written script would suggest the Chiefs 3peat vs the eagles in the superbowl... though ever since I watched that first hail mary win early in the season for Daniels it felt like the commanders may have something really special happening this year to upset the oddsmakers.

I think my preferred outcome would actually be Bills defeat Commanders for the title but that seems pretty unlikely.

Great games today though!

If the chiefs win another, I'll never hear the end of it

The Bills winning over the Ravens was entertaining and fun to watch. That was the only one of the four games that had my attention.

Anyone want to comment on Notre Dame vs. Ohio State? I think OSU is a big betting favorite.

Notre Dame

Here come the Irish..!

I'm a pretty big fan of Midwest Emo but American Football isn't my favorite. If you like them take a listen to The Hotelier or Algernon Cadwallader, they are better IMO.

Two big games with compelling stories are scheduled for the Conference Championship Games for Sunday. Four really good QBs are featured, too. Mahomes is still the reigning Champ, too.

[DirtyDishSoap]

Well, of the two teams i had hoped not to see in the superbowl have done it. Bah!

[jusplay4fun]

Thank you captain Google.

Maybe I will just fling out opinions and not fact check what I say. That would fit more of the posts in this thread.

Yes! That's exactly what you should be doing!

OKAY. SO I predict that these teams will likely be in their Conference Championship games:
AFC: KC "Chefs" vs. Buffalo Bills, and possibly Baltimore Ravens
NFC: Detroit Lions vs. Philadephia Eagles

If Detroit goes, I think it will be their FIRST Super Bowl.

I will brag and say that I got 3 of 4 correct on this set of Predictions.

3:4 ratio? Dinosaur

And there in lies the fun of friendly banter rather than shooting Google off.

maybe I should drink a whole bottle of cabarnet before deciding on which team to bet my big roll of dinero...?

[DirtyDishSoap]

I hate to say it but I'd put my money on the chiefs. All year they've been just winning. Not in the fanciest ways, but pure chance or just some horrible misplay from the opposition.

Yes, the Chiefs have an incredible record of winning one score games (7 or less points). No one can win against Majomes (almost) in the NFL Playoffs. He is a magician and an incredible Pro QB.

I predict that the Kansas City Chiefs, led by Patrick Mahomes, will win their THIRD straight Super Bowl, accomplish something never done before, not even by the GOAT Tom Brady.

I think DDS and I agree on this point.

[DirtyDishSoap]

Finally. The Chiefs lose! They got rolled over! WOOOOOOO!

[jusplay4fun]

That was such a one-sided game. I did not expect KC Chiefs to lose so badly. In the second half, they made a gallant effort to make the final score look a bit respectable.

I was not really aware of how good their defense IS. WoW..! The got many sacks without A BLITZ. The Eagles have an amazing Front Four, which can dominate games, as did the famous Steel Curtain defense (and those of the NY Giants, too, in more recent years.)

Congratulations to the Eagles.

Anyone else been watching the drama unfold with the Draft on Sanders? Some nut cases were talking about how he should be compared to Collin Kaepernick and being black balled. He gets picked up anyways in round 5 but Jesus, what a whiner.

If I was an NFL franchise and could draft Dion Sanders personality in a QB I'd pass too. I just don't think the overwhelming self confidence and bravado that made him amazing translate well into QB. I'm betting Shilo Sanders will be in the league longer than Shadeur.

[DirtyDishSoap]

He blamed his own offensive line in a aftermath interview. Can't imagine having to deal with that kind of ego that you're willing to blame others. Yeah, I'd hard pass on the guy too. Can't imagine he'll go far if he ends up being an ass.

[mookiemcgee]

you just can't say that as QB, but they were fucking horrible.

[Spencert]

I’ve always been into American Football — the energy and strategy are just awesome.

He's with the browns now though. Jesus couldn't save that team.
