2020-21 NFL Season

[NDRock]

Both #1 seeds fall in the last seconds. Always nice to see Rogers and the Pack lose.

No idea what Vrabel, his OC, and the Titans staff in general were thinking in every single 3rd/4th-down situation last night… but the Bengals and the city of Cincinnati thank them for trusting Ryan Tannehill, and for taking points off the board early and trying to go for 2 for no reason whatsoever.

Also, shout-out to the Bengals for having a group of guys that don’t fold under the earliest sign of pressure like they did from 2010-2015.

It’s crazy what having a QB with a killer’s mindset can do for a franchise. Can’t believe we watched Dalton play nice and blow playoff games so many years in a row, and now we get to watch Joe Burrow operate in a complete opposite fashion, mentally.

And shoutout to Evan McPherson for being an ice cold killer, too… that’s why you draft a kicker!

Packers gave up a punt block by leaving the smallest guy in the line solo blocking a 270 pound defensive lineman. 49ers sent 6 guys and Packers had 8 in protection. Just crazy.

Watching the Packers on offense felt weird. Did Lazard and MVS even play? It felt like Rodgers only threw to Adams and Jones. They desperately need a functional #2 receiver. It probably won’t matter because Rodgers needs to get out of there and Love is not even close to being a competent replacement.

The only play I remember where they tried to get someone besides Adams or Jones involved for a designed chunk play was a reverse to ESB…. That is not who you think the Packers would be featuring for a one-off gadget play in the playoffs, unless he is somehow their “burner” on the roster.

That’s was the Bills version of Under the Lights but worse. Buffalo is cursed.

Also, that was literally the worst possible defense that you can run with 13 seconds left needing to prevent KC getting into field goal range. You know that they are going to try to run two quick hitting plays to the middle of the field because anything else will take too much time.

 

[Irish#1]

All they had to do was squib kick and KC would only have about five seconds for a play.

Compounded by the kickoff. I told everyone around me they need to squib it. While they might get 5-10 extra yards, it would be one less play on offense. Easy trade off IMO. The touchback enabled the three play scoring drive.

The Bills and Packers coaches are gonna have a hard time sleeping.

 

[Irishnuke]

Josh Allen should be fucking livid with his coaching staff, his defense, and the NFL overtime rules. You couldn't have played a better game than he did only to sit on the bench and watch the Chiefs score with ease.

 

[NDRock]

That was an unreal performance by Mahomes and Allen. Allen seemed like Elway 2.0 out there. Just incredible. Impossible to stop great quarterback play.

 

[yankeehater]

I think ND offered the wrong QB from California. I guess when they saw he was 6'5" Allen was no longer under consideration. LOL!

 

[irish o'phile]

I just bought 2 nosebleed 50 yard line tickets for the Rams vs Niners when they first became Available. $1800!!!! Prices are out of control

Over/under for fights at Sofi next weekend is 200. Be safe!

 

[irish o'phile]

Yeah, should be rough.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

I feel terrible for Allen. A heroic performance wasted by an incompetent coaching staff.

 

[Irish#1]

Listening to Brady Quinn this morning, he mentioned that there were a lot of people in Brady's suite that normally aren't there and some chatter that this might have been Brady's last game.

 

[arrowryan]

Josh Allen is so good. I’d say he’s the best QB in the NFL.

Gabe Davis needs to be in jail for assaulting that DB

I think Brady is done.

 

[irishff1014]

The nfl has a problem though with the officials. I am not a cowboys fan but the nfl said the ref has to place the ball but in the rams game the official never touched the ball at the end of the game.

 

[Rogue219]

As a neutral, I'd have no problem with an ongoing Chiefs vs Bills rivalry between both of those two QBs. Outstanding talents, and two very good OCs in Bienemy and Daboll. The natural order of things is that OC and DC get head coaching jobs. Someone will need to explain to me why those two guys aren't head coaches down the road at some point.

Allen was making throws that I'm not sure would ever been attempted let alone completed. He was absolutely sensational. The ability to not only make the throws but run and create something and or escape pressure is quite a luxury in the NFL.

Tom Brady just looked....old. Honestly don't know what else he needs to prove or if he needs the money but at this point I think his career goes down as the best to ever play the position in terms of records and accolades. Hang it up. Then we see if these new kids can reach the heights he's set or even come close.

All four games were outstanding after the wild card round the week before left a lot to be desired in terms of competitiveness and entertainment value.

Tom Brady, I assume.

The ball was spotted but done by the back judge and not the Umpire, which makes more sense on plays like that. Basically, yesterday’s crew did a better job than the crew which did the Cowboys game. As with everything, some people are better at their jobs than others.

 

[Rogue219]

NBC hiring an ND QB to do color for ND games would be quite an off brand move.

They can only give us so many USC, Purdue, BC, and other rivals before they throw us a bone...right? Jac and Corey in the studio doesn't cut it!

 

[Irish#1]

Sean Payton is retiring.

Well now they're saying he's not officially retiring, but stepping back. Whatever that means.

Quinn was on his morning radio gig Two Pros and a Cup of Joe. Talking about Tom Brady.

Honestly he looked fine to me. He was majorly hampered by their WR room falling apart late in the year.

Too many Brady's spoil the sentence!
