I mean obviously a leg would be worse, but a shoulder injury for someone who is sprinting and pursing receivers can't be fun. I hope he is better for you, T-Dubs.

He already hurt one shoulder earlier in the year, now it's the other one. There's no way he won't play, he is too excited to play in his first ever playoff game. But I doubt he will be 100%.

BTW, congratulations to Josh Allen for winning his second AFC Offensive Player of the Month award this season. 2 out of 4 months ain't too shabby for the Firebaugh Kid.

The D is important, but this is Russell Wilson time...which...usually is the case 24/7. DK might go lights out here...sorry, to be clear, he might light it up something fierce.

If I were to reshuffle it, I'd put Bucs vs Washinton on at 1, Colts vs Bills on 4 and make the Seahawks Rams on at 8, since it's a west coast game most west coast people would care the most to have the game on at 5 pst. Obviously Sunday is like, whatever! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 My personal preference Saturday: Tampa/WFT @ 1PM -- I know @Slug wants to watch this game. But I sure don't plan on it. Rams/Seahawks @ 4PM -- Does anybody really want to watch this for the third time? Ravens/Titans @ 8PM -- Henry vs. Lamar -- I'm in Sunday: Browns/Steelers @ 1PM -- Does anybody really want to watch this for the third time? Bears/Saints @ 4PM -- Second time this season, and this one should at last be competitive Colts/Bills @ 8PM -- This has the potential to be the BEST game of the weekend -- an entertaining shootout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoberChef Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 My predictions as follows: Tampa, Seattle, & Tennessee on Saturday while a shocking surprise by Cleveland, & Indy as well as New Orleans on Sunday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emblazon Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 So, Nagy is horrendous at play calling. Similar to how Trubisky is horrible at accuracy past 5 yards. 6 game losing streak, hands play calling off to the OC, Bill Lazer. Bears proceed to win 3 straight, scoring over 30 each game. Albeit against shit teams. What does Nagy do? Takes back play calling in the finale against GB and proceeds to absolutely shit the bed. So, I’m here to watch the Bears completely tank on Sunday. And then give up everything for either Watson or Fields. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewhyteboar Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I think the Colts have a good chance of upsetting the Bills. Allen has had an amazing year and seems to have turned his career around, but he still has to prove it in the playoffs. And that Colts D is no joke. Buckner is the second best DT in the league and can just wreck offenses. It wouldn't surprise me if Allen has a few turnovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills have outscored their six opponents coming out of the bye 229-110, or 38-18, roughly. 4 of those opponents at the time were in the top 10 in defense. This weekend maybe the first time that Allen has Diggs, Brown and Beasley playing together since four or five minutes into the hail Murray game and they are going up against the only team to lose against the Steelers in a month and a half. Yes, they could lose, but right now I am more worried about being carried away by army ants than I am about losing to the Colts. ...and it’s winter for ants in Buffalo.

Not even necessary, TWB, but it is honestly welcome! My comments are above and they are absolutely true, but the fun in the playoffs is rooting for those teams and players you got feels or. I...am a HUGE Philip Rivers fan. Loved him going to Indy and knew he was going to get them in. ...Frank Reich? Are you kidding me?! Why I should be believed when I say that I was at the Greatest Comeback in NFL History (trailing 35-3 in the third quarter) 27 years ago (as of this past Sunday, January 3rd) AND THAT I DIDN'T LEAVE is for one reason, and one reason only...food. I was lucky enough to be in a box for that game...chicken wings, pizza, roast beef, peanuts, cheese, crackers, drinks, soda, beer, and a dessert I can't even remember, all at and before halftime (28-3). ...no matter how badly my team is losing there is no way I am leaving...well..food on the table, so to speak. My buddies who had seats in the lower bowl left at halftime and one of them fell asleep when he got home and missed the whole comeback. Interestingly, too, is that I believe it was the firs Bills playoff game not to be sold out, so the game was blacked out...no one locally saw it on TV. ...Just too little faith in Reich to pull it off. Another side note: At halftime Coach Marv Levy told Reich since he led the greatest comeback in College Football history (at the time it was the greatest when Reich led Maryland over Miami...also as a backup filling in for, I believe Boomer Esiason) that he might as well do it also as a pro, too.

AbsolutSurgen Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 The NFL playoffs are a single-elimination tournament -- so anyone can win. I think, however, the Bills are gonna kick the Colts ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
