Re: NFL Conference Championships week
I just read a story on yahoo that Tom Brady has been promised the analyst spot on Fox’s number one team for football broadcasts next season. ($375 million for 10 years.) But, we have no indication if he is any good (or bad) at his new job.… Yeah, that seems to be a pretty big risk, especially since...

Re: NFL Conference Championships week
Lions have so much talent. SF being more experienced may have helped, along with some luck, especially on the 50 yard completion (although do they pick up the flag if the catch isn't made?) Niners are a strange team; so many big names but they looked bad for pretty big portions of both playoff games...

Re: NFL Conference Championships week
Disagree on the gambles. I think if there’s a talent disparity like this and you they’re in the road, I feel like they should take more chances. They just didn’t work out. I disagree with this. For one the talent is pretty even (other than McCaffery who is unreal), but I hate when teams chase point...

Re: NFL Conference Championships week
Suggs entrance really motivated the defense (It paid off!, according to Jim Nantz). Now they need Trent Dilfer to get the crowd going to wake up the offense.

Re: 2023 NFL Wild Card Weekend
Considering Josh Allen fakes slides and embraces contact, I have no idea how the Steelers can affectively commit to tackling him without it turning into a penalty, but if a defenseless tackler is engaged, just hit him wherever.
