Oh! Now they finally give a reverse angle to that bullshit penalty on Houston. Roughing the passer my ass.

Jesus Christ.

No doubt. Bullshit call. My wife just called Mahomes a pussy. She doesn’t use that word normally. She hates KC.

She never cared about football that much until we became neighbors to a Ravens player. Now she watches almost all the games. But she still walks away when it gets too tense.

That was a soft penalty. And I agree that one guy is not lining up on the line of scrimmage. Should be an illegal formation every time.

Also the surname of my friend who just visited from Scotland. Means “good-looking child”.

Chiefs player offsides on that kick too.

A 10 and a half minute drive for Houston resulting in a touchdown...and then a missed extra point.

Oof.

Horseshit call there. WTF are the defenders supposed to do?

Johnnie · Post by **Johnnie** » Sat Jan 18, 2025 6:28 pm

My God. We need some serious Ball Don't Lie right about now.

Fucking hell.

Even the announcing team was disgusted by that.

Johnnie · Post by **Johnnie** » Sat Jan 18, 2025 6:38 pm

At least they didn't throw a flag on that clear and obvious flop by Mahomes.

EnochRoot · Post by **EnochRoot** » Sat Jan 18, 2025 6:39 pm

Mahomes was basically saying fuck off, Troy.

Post by **Sabo** » Sat Jan 18, 2025 7:24 pm

This is like watching the Browns.

Except it’s the playoffs.

Gonna either be a tough game or a breakthrough for my wife who gets these two Dans confused.

Defensive injury on second play. Sounds about right.

Brontoburglar · Post by **Brontoburglar** » Sat Jan 18, 2025 8:53 pm

I understand why the call on Mahomes sliding is getting all the attention, but the holding call a few plays earlier was just as bad. Smith never engaged with the defender and got pulled to the ground.

EnochRoot · Post by **EnochRoot** » Sat Jan 18, 2025 8:58 pm

Is there a video feed of this game that doesn't have the non-stop warning of the winter storm that is set to besiege Maryland tomorrow AM through 7p? I get it. We're slated for 4-5". After the game I'm salting the walkway and will lift the wipers off the windshield.

The thing with Mahomes taking advantage of the QB protection rules by waiting until a defender can't completely pull up or slowing down as he approaches the sideline to goad someone into a late hit OB penalty is that you can call it savvy all you want and probably get away with it, but he still deserves to get his head ripped off one of those times.

Absolutely needs his block knocked off just on principle.

Like that one QB dude in college this year that did the fake slide & pull up so the defender stopped. And then he went "Psyche!," turned the jets back on, and scored.

Oh no. Was Jared Goff Sam Darnold's +1 in regressing to their previous football selves?

Well, it was good season. On to 2025.

Not quite yet.

Not when Jameson Williams fucks the ground after an awesome TD.

This game funtastic so far. I’m even buying that Brady is entertained.

Even if Goff is back they can’t stop Washington with 8 starters out on D. Hopefully they have better injury luck next year.

This is the 1995 WC game against Philly all over again.

Guys...no word of a lie. I ate a psilocybin gummy a couple hours ago and I've been sitting here since 8:30 watching the Eagles-Rams game from November on NFL Network thinking it was tonight's playoff game. I finally noticed a score alert for the actual game on the ticker

That was Kenny Pickett and it happened in 2021

Not sure why the Rams are the home team here but glad to see the city has recovered so quickly from the fires.

My father does that regularly for both football and hockey (sober). It’d be funnier if it wasn’t sad.

You saw the part about psilocybin, right?

I know nothing, but I'd look to establish the run game to win TOP this half.

That lateral-shovel play was fantastic.
