I need a phone call
I need a raincoat

Just watched 10 minutes of the Texans-Colts Week 2 rewind on NFL Network thinking it was the game today. Was wondering is Anthony Richardson really back?

I'm not crying
It's just been raining
On my face

The five key positions on any team is QB, LT, Alpha Receiver, Edge Rusher, and Lead Corner. The Texans filed three of those spots in the last two drafts with absolute studs in Stroud, Anderson, and Stingley, traded for a Pro-Bowler at LT in Tunsil (albeit in a steep price), and have a emerging star at receiver in Collins (beautiful 75-yard catch and run btw). And all of them outside of Tunsil are young. What bright future they have. Those fans have earned it.

The Puddle of Mudd song going to commercial would have made more sense in the earlier game.

If they just run the fourth down play the get the ball back. Coaches outsmarting themselves

Never in a million years did I expect the NFL team I root for to be playing a playoff game but here we are.

It's crazy how Nico Collins is their only healthy receiving threat and he still did that. That team is legit.

This is probably why I shouldn't look at the Twitters but I was terribly confused by this as well...

Honestly, same. After punishing them by ignoring them last year it was nice to get there and it not have much to do with asshole mchandy.

Can we have an alternate Red Zone to cover the draft order race?

How is Breece Hall good?

He was good when he was younger, but now he's less young and less good.

For fucks neck how are we staying on 31-0 cin-cle and not the Tennessee Jax game? I know they can move from blowouts

Woohoo!

A week or three ago, I probably didn't really want the Steelers in the playoffs. But the way they closed out the season, I think they might not got smoked in the first game.

I wondered the same thing. It looked pretty close. At the very least, you'd expect a good receiver in a critical game to dive for that, but I'm not convinced he needed to do that.

My only thought was that maybe he couldn't get a good look at it because of the rain?

Right? If Washington and Arizona lose then it's a bunch of weird SOS tie breakers.

We need Steve Kornacki, stat.

If this defensive collapse ensures Pencils McRocketScientist never gets a job coaching anywhere again this Eagles season would be a success.

EdRomero · Post by **EdRomero** » Sun Jan 07, 2024 6:34 pm

I think I'm going insane because Romo and the "expert" ref analyst did not mention once that he didn't have control until he was out of bounds, and then when the refs said that exactly, Romo and expert were still focussing on something else.

It came out last week, that Belichick wanted to keep him on as offensive coordinator, but Kraft forced the change, so maybe they'll be reunited in San Diego next season.

My area got the whittiest games this week. And that includes my favorite team playing. Most exciting part was seeing them talk about Joe Flacco. Sad.

New Orleans scored a meaningless touchdown - by going into victory formation, then doing a surprise run. Jeez, that is about as bush league as it gets.

I am still SO confused how he re-surfaced mid-year and gifted the d-coordinator job mid-stream. It is beyond confusing to me.

Losing their best player and the likely DPOY is not going to help.

That’s a pretty underrated rivalry and should serve to dial the spicy.

Right? I think the Saints still put a billboard in Atlanta every year on March 28th. I always like some bad blood.

As an aggrieved owner of various Falcons in fantasy, god bless the Saints for that. Fuck Arthur Smith.

Supposedly Winston and the team went rouge. It was supposed to be a kneel-down.
