I got wings in the fryer, chips and dip, plenty of beer. C'mon Buffalo!!

Edit: Although I gotta say, Bo Nix as a rookie in his 1st playoff game is looking promising

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Went and got wings cause of you

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

It's the perfect football food

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Imagine we could've had Bills v. Bengals but Chiefs gave Broncos the win

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Even when we lose we piss people off

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

It's ok I blame the Chiefs more lol

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Josh Allen begs for penalties sure, but the no call on that holding cost them a TD

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Missed field goal, dropped passes, these things are going to be the difference if Denver loses.

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

Knee down in bounds looks like a catch to me

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Nothing a defender can even do.

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

I'm with you on that, still has to be called to prevent targeting but it's unfair sometimes.

[–] RandAlThor@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

Damn this was a tight game to half time. Bills broke it open in 3rd.

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Ideal weather for a January game in Buffalo, should allow for a higher scoring game than probably normal. Up to the Bronco's D to contain Josh.

Holyshit! NIx throws a bomb on Bills for 7!
Nix has been better than I thought he'd be in NFL.

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Nix is good, and Allen is great. But the prettiest pass so far was from rhe Broncos punter.

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Dixon is the MVP right now.

[–] RandAlThor@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

2 minutes before half, Bills have the big yards, but not the big lead. I'd be worried.

[–] RandAlThor@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

lol Broncos fake a punt and converts!

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh fuck, Davis, this isn't good at all.

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

Heck of a hospital pass

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Ah shit it's over.

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago

What a catch and run. Samuel is fast af.

Well I feel bad for Packers D, Josh Jacobs on offense. Kept them in the game for 3 quarters. Love and the offense not stepping up plus the insane # of injuries made this one impossible. GG Eagles

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

Woof. Immediate fumble then TD on the road in one of the most hostile environments in the NFL aka Philly. We'll see the Packers can come back from this

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

Well that's a pretty shit way to start on the road

Btw thanks @RandAlThor for making these threads😎

I've mostly left the other site, but I feel like I'm addicted to aggressively shitposting in game threads

[–] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 weeks ago

My ideal Superbowl is Bills vs Lions, Lions win, and Ben Johnson signs with the Raiders :D

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The Crime in Sports podcast has ruined my sports watching experience lol.

At some point during any sport broadcast, the I wonder which one of these guys is a monster who will be featured on the show thought pops into my head.

freaking 5 losses in a row to end the season for my steelers. I don't know how we keep ending seasons like this, but it's getting REAL old.

I swear, it's like we hit the threshold for getting into the playoffs, saw those last few games (against the Eagles, Chiefs, and Ravens), knew we could lose them and still make it, let our foot off the gas, and when it came time to hammer down, we just didn't have it in us. Cam Heyward having an all-star season this far into his tenure does not deserve this kind of ending. I don't know what needs to change, but man, SOMETHING does.

[–] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You guys need a QB.

Wilson can't get you over the hump. It's the twilight of his career.

The Bears ruined Fields.

Until you find a solid QB, it's gonna be tough. But I will say this. With Tomlin, you have always had a winning season. That's incredible.

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

We really fell in love with those moon-ball deep shots, but yeah, if there's a QB coming out of college that fits the mold, maybe someone with the right size and arm strength that isn't getting looked at, I'd love to take a fly on him. Let him sit for a year to learn under Wilson, and then hopefully right the ship. Ugh.

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Maybe the Rooneys should punish Tomlin by trading him to the Jets

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Tomlin for Rodgers straight up?

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] dhork@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

It might be the first time two teams traded head coaches straight up like that

[–] JoshuaBrusque@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

As a Steelers fan, do you want Tomlin gone?

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

No. He's been the bedrock upon which our franchise operates. However, I've seen this time and time again, where it feels like we just let our foot off the gas towards the end of the season. We overlook what should be certain victories, and fail to rally for big games. We had some injuries on the O-line that hindered us, but it just feels like we're using the same losing formula every year hoping that this time it'll work. I think we need to use this draft to solidify our O-line, bring in some depth at Running back, get another legit WR to take the pressure off Pickens, and stick with Russel Wilson (at least for now).

Our offense has been doing better since we got Arthur Smith, but he may be head coaching somewhere else next year. If that happens, oof. It'll be another season of pain while we try to find our offensive footing.

Thank goodness I'm also a Cleveland Cavaliers/ Ohio State Buckeyes fan. Can't be too sad about one of my teams not doing well when my other two are wreaking havoc 😅

So that last sequence before the commercial break was interesting.

Is Jim Nantz retiring? He was waxing philosophical about when he started and the people he worked with. 🤔
