The Andrew Luck-Frank Reich combo is pretty scary for AFC teams going forward.

I wish they'd just STFU. They need to make every single sentence seem profound, but they are two goons who can't stop one upping themselves. It's ridiculous.

What a perfect half they just played.

It is unbelievable how quickly the Colts built an offensive line.

Is it a hot take to say I don’t think Peter King is wrong and that walking off before a win-and-in game is a fine disqualifier?

I agree. It’s not like Brown was otherwise a slam dunk All-Pro either. Hard to argue with Hopkins and Thomas making it.

Yeah it’s not bad to not put him on all pro but to say he is t top 20 receiver? That’s weird.

Ha!
IMO, Roethlisberger sneakily sucks now. Every time I watched the Steelers play this year he either was throwing terrible picks or missing wide open receivers. Teams would never side with m a WR over a QB but I don’t think Ben is still a guy who you want to give control of your franchise to.

The guy with the boobs is the only regular I can recall, and he popped in for a bit a little over a year ago but hasn’t posted since. And who knows if he stuck with the team after the move.

But go Chargers.

A subtle cross-thread (and conciliatory) joke. And that’s how you answer a challenge to your Swamp cred. Nice!

At the risk of starting another fuss - can I just say that Brian Schottenheimer should be unemployed as of tomorrow. That was horrendous to watch.

I generally root in the playoffs by how many Chippewas are on each team so I guess I’m a Chargers fan today.

For most of the first half, it seemed like he was fired last night, then hired by the Chargers in time for today's game.

Terrible decision by John Harbaugh there in trying a 50 yard FG on 4th and short down by 9. Why is it that coaches consistently focus on the risk of getting stopped on 4th down while ignoring the risk of missing long kicks?

I think when you have the best kicker in the league it changes the calculus a bit.

Because Tucker is scarily accurate. Except that time.

They should have won the challenge and been on the two inch line even if you say he wasn’t in. The spot should have changed at a minimum.

Kicking outdoors, even a top kicker is maybe 70% from 50 yards out. The Ravens have been a great running team with Jackson but even if they’re a bit less than 70% to convert, I think it’s worth it to go for it to keep the odds of a TD drive alive.
