NFL Thread: Thoughts on the game south of the 49th

Yep

I haven't followed the league too closely for awhile, but these playoff games have been pretty exciting, competitive and going right down to the wire.

I hear the Seahawks QB might be out vs the 49ers. I still can't get used to Seattle not being in the AFC West, LOL.

[donlever]

It's a good league.

Lots of solid qb play and plenty of innovative young coaches.

The rules allow for offense to be a factor even in the playoffs.

A good deal of late wins as well.

Kind of like this one which ain't over yet.

Darnold will play, we will see if the oblique holds him back but id be surprised if he doesnt start....

[Carl Yagro]

Crap, Broncs come right back with a TD.

I want Allen and the Bills to win it for Jim.

[donlever]

Not over yet.

60 plus yard field goals in Denver very possible.

[donlever]

....and OT.

Kick would have carried 60 easy.

[Carl Yagro]

Seems like 50yd FGs are nothing these days. Even 60yds is somewhat normal.

In da OLD days, anything over 45yds and you send the punter out.

Coulda won it if only Allen hit the tight end in stride. (Easy Cuz)

[donlever]

Yeah..Denver has a top rated D....pressure on Allen caused that overthrow.

An interesting tidbit on Denver.

Due to cutting Russ Wilson the Broncos are carrying 32 million of dead cap this year.

So that value behind the 8 ball with respect to roster building opportunity.

Helluva coaching job by Payton.

Hall of Fame coach.....

[Carl Yagro]

Why do I keep betting on the wrong horses?

0-7 in OT.

If Van had an NFL team, it would be the Bills.

[Carl Yagro]

Is the Seahawks QB the same one that played for the Jets?

I recall the Jets had a string of failed QBs after Buttfumble Sanchez?

[donlever]

Yes.

Sam Darnold.

3rd overall to NYJ from USC.

[Meds]

Even as a Seahawks fan, I would have liked a closer game in this one. The Niner's are banged up and this one isn't even close.

Bummer about the Bills. Woulda like to see Allen get to the big dance. Bills took Denver's QB with them though it seems.

[Meds]

That throw in the dying 4th by Williams to Kmet.....that was unreal.

Happy to see that the Rams won though.

[donlever]

Lol....Mack Hollins with a notable game day entry @ Mile High.

From the '70's move Warriors for the uninitiated.

I thought the Broncos would get crushed without a QB.

Let's hope for a more exciting NFC final.
