[Lamb18]

Jags just intercepted and SCORED!!!! 

[mojoween]

I still have it on CBS so your last three posts are so delightful!  Merry Christmas indeed.

It worked!!!

Looks like you got the wish

[Bastet]

I don't think I've given the Jaguars a combined total of five minutes' thought in my life, but goddamn, I love them right now! 

[Carey]

Based off of a discussion early on, it would be totally pathetic if the NFL changed the playoff venue rules if Tampa beat Dallas.

BUT only if they changed it after the Cowboys lose to the Bucs.  That's based on what just happened, Carolina losing at home and most important...

Tampa beat Dallas IN Arlington as the road team.  Nearly shut them out

[mojoween]

Funny how both games in OT ended nearly simultaneously in walkoffs after change of possession.

[Jx223]

That was a great game between the Jaguars and the Cowboys. It had a little bit of everything in it. It seemed like their fans in the stadium were really excited/energized by it and their play. Terrific win for the Jaguars after coming from behind. They have been getting better lately and still have a shot at the playoffs.

[Salacious Kitty]

Found Romo. Calling the Cincy/Tampa game. Ugh.

[Lamb18]

I wonder if Romo's voice is extra hoarse from weeping over the Vowboys' loss.

[mojoween]

Yeah Tony has basically been foisted on the nation today.

Because thinking about the AFC South doesn’t usually occupy much of my time, I have just learned that Jacksonville is knocking on Tennessee’s door for the division.  This afternoon’s Titans/Chargers game just got interesting.

[Carey]

Speaking of Dallas, they had 3 ways to clinch a playoff spot.  Now they'll need the Giants to win tonight.

Speaking of the Giants, if they tie with Washington again, I'll laugh.  Unlike fans of Arizona and the Rams.

So Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and the Raiders all survived elimination.  The Colts need the Chargers and Raiders to win.  Really just one of those two.  If they both lose, they're out

Especially interesting given that Tannehill was just taken into the locker on a cart. Looks like a foot injury.

In case you haven't figured it out, home dogs will kill you in sports betting.

[Carey]

Things aren't spectacular for Tennessee.  Jacksonville might actually take the AFC South and I wouldn't been shocked to see Vrabel exit.  Though to be fair, Tennessee wouldn't be in the playoff picture in an eight-team division (unless the AFC South and NFC South were one)

[BlueSkies]

I thought the 1st time the Jets played the Bills they got some breaks and won that game.  Josh threw some interceptions that were so bad it led many to think the games were fixed.

On Thanksgiving Day I thought the Lions deserved to beat the Bills but it didnt work out.  

I thought today the Jets deserved to beat the Lions but Detroit pulled it out.

I guess my point is sometimes things are all relative when it comes to wins and losses.

Regardless,  I recommend to check out tomorrow morning super Jets fan Joe Bengino's rant.

The Patriots are an across the board dumb football team this year. Wasted time outs, penalties, low football IQ.

They had 1st and goal and cost themselves a TD twice with a TO called before a successful play with the clock running down and a false start.  Then right now another delay of game.

Cincinnati can start playing like a team who is 9-4 rather than one who is 4-9 ANY fucking minute now.

Right? They look like hot buttered garbage.

No worries. Their opponent is even dumber.

[Fukui San]

True, if you have to trail by double digits, the team you’d choose to do it against is the Raiders. 

Still, the Pats got a punt blocked apparently because the snapper snapped it before they finished calling out blocking assignments. 

[Carey]

Meh.  The Patriots have the Raiders right where they want them.  Same with Cincinnati FWIW

[kathyk24]

Matt Patricia is a terrible offensive coordinator. I have no clue why Mac Jones didn't try a quarterback sneak from the one yard line. Skip Blayless is having a Twitter meltdown over the Cowboys loss.

[DrSpaceman73]

After all the speculation of the afc west being great, might have 4 playoffs teams, anyone can win it, mahommes without tyreek hill won't be that good.....

Two teams suck one is mediocre and the chiefs win the division again.

Even if I didn't already hate Dall-ass with the fire of a thousand suns, this would make it worth it to me.  Skip Bayless is a festering, purulent boil on the armpit of America.

Yup. The Raiders blew a bigger lead just last week. And a really big lead to the fucking Cards. 

Edit...and so it begins. Carr is usually good for va pick 6 every game. 🙄

They’re pressing.  Likely because they want to gain on the Cravens, who lost yesterday.

Or the Colts.

Basically the Bucs are playing the way they are per tradition. Just with Brady as NOT Brady

Well well well how the turns have tabled.  Tampa is vomiting all over itself this quarter and Cincy is taking full advantage.

[Salacious Kitty]

2 fumble recoveries for the Bengals. First one turned into 6. Still working on that second one.

[Carey]

Whatever happens, Burrow and Cincy get the other half of what WRECKED dominated or were tops of the National Football League over the past one-fifth of a century next weekend at Foxborough.  That's the sentence.

[meowmommy]

27 unanswered points works for me.

But after yesterday, I'm not making any predictions.  Other than TB should really be wondering what the hell he blew up his marriage for...

[mojoween]

The fans yelling “Who Dey” from somewhere in the bowels of Raymond James Stadium are making me giggle.

Oh my god Raiders what

Edited December 18, 2022 by mojoween

[Carey]

Man that might top the Edelman catch from nearly six years ago, and this time at the expense of TB12.  Both passes were thrown by Tom Brady

[Salacious Kitty]

And just like that, the Raiders have blown yet another big lead

[BlueSkies]

Happy for the Bengals.  Right now they are up 27-17.

The Bengals/Bills Monday night game in 2 weeks I think will be the game of the year...  in the regular season.

Bengals/Bills/Chiefs are all pretty equal imo for best team in the AFC. 

[Carey]

AFC North > NFC South. A chance to go 15-1 unless something GOATLY happens. Ravens have a date with the Falcons, while Cleveland has a date hosting New Orleans Finest

Ditto for the Bucs.  This is exactly what I posted about a few days ago.  We go into the half at 17-0, a fairly comfortable lead, and by the 4th quarter the Bengals are up 27-17.  WTF, Bucs?

[Carey]

Arizona becomes the 4th team booted from the postseason. NO tie needed from Washington & New York

His tweets are funny. Especially where he takes four lines to say NO!.

[Carey]

Great job Raiders. Hope that was your Super Bowl! Actually, I don't need to hope!  BTW, Franco CAUGHT it!

[Salacious Kitty]

Holy crap Raiders. Something actually went right 

[twoods]

Wow with the Raiders ending. What were the Patriots thinking?

They weren't.  Belichick must be strangling right about now.

Fuck New England.  TB too.  The past 21 years had a ton of potential, and someone was around way too long to wreck it.  Meanwhile, Cincinnati/Buffalo the AFC winner might bring Dallas and San Francisco back to their winning ways!
