Your Mid-Afternoon NFL Playoff Game Open Thread

Welcome back as always Pigskinheads! Are you ready for more? Of course you are. Will we get another glorious upset like we did yesterday? I simply did not see Sillycuse winning over UVA-I mean, I saw it but I didn’t see it. Makes sense? No? If Seattle beats the Packers could anyone that closely watches the sport really call it that? I’m squarely in the “NO!” corner.

TO THE GAME!

Texans/Chiefs:

-The first time that these guys played this year Houston bounced around a Mahomes that was battling an ankle ouchie. If they’re relying on him to make bone-headed plays like Josh Allen did last week in order  to win I don’t think it’ll happen.

-As a matter of hoohaw, Kermit has graded out as the top performing qb the last 3 weeks of the regular season.

-You’d think that Tyreek and Kelce will run free all day because opposing qb’s average 281 yards passing but keep an eye on Damien “Bad Seed” Williams. The Texans are 8th worst in yards per carry defended and the lousiest against rb’s catching the ball out of the backfield.

-KC slowly morphed into a well-rounded team as the season went on and the D (under Steve “Spags” Spagnoulo) started getting pressure from the ends. If you recall his work with the Giants D in 2016, he likes to funnel everything to the middle of the field and let the safties and lb’s clean up. It’s simple but it works. Qb Watson had 2.6 seconds to throw last week but I don’t see that happening again.

Prediction Time! The Texans are exposed to the tune of 35-13.

Put ‘er there, partner! And by ‘there’, I mean down below, in words and pics.

Andy can be Wentz’s QB coach if Doug’s feeling generous

Shit starting to think I have a lag

They’re the Clippers of the NFL. Shit for many years only to become postseason fodder for the rest.

The AFC title game will be played in color rush uniforms to keep with the spirit of the Texans vs Titans.

Senor Weaselo

Thursday Night Championship!

Titans should wear their Oilers throwbacks. If you’re gonna get booed, get booed.

Rush bumper music without mention of Peart?

Viva La Tabula Raza

I guess they reckon we all know by now.

More Rush!

Teams coming off the bye week handling balls like they’re 13 year old girls

500s vs Oilers come on Bleergh.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Such a matchup would take place in Houston, yes?

litre_cola

Yessir.

Redshirt

If we could get Jerry Glanville and the Ghost of Sam Wyche to coach that game, we would get NBA All Star Games scores.

King Hippo

Have to go for it, fatty

Senor Weaselo

Infinite Texans vs. Andy Reid Reiding. SOMETHING’S GOTTA GIVE!

Dick E. Phuck

Bury my heart at wounded short ribs.

Spur

See what happens when New England is not playing, madness.

Gratliff

Mahomes always walks like he’s gotta take a shit

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Maybe we’re spiritually linked… because I definitely have to take a shit right now

Fronkenshteen

Chiefs -10 is a dead bet.

Spur

Buttchin will blow this lead.

ArmedandHammered

Fuck, I am hungry but afraid I’ll miss something if I get up at this rate.

I’m sure the pizza guy/gal will be fine leaving food on your doorstep

Now, got some great cheese, summer sausage, and crackers. I just need to cut it up. Oh and some Marcana almonds

A time out by the QB with 10 minutes left in the 1st Quarter? That’s my boy!

OH SHIT

King Hippo

There’s Mahomes not being Leader of Men smh

Gratliff

With the Eagles out, hoping to see Andy get his. Of course, he won’t.

Whoever the Not-Quite-Racists’ Defensive Coordinator should remove their headset and walk away.

Old School Zero

ha ha “touchdown Houston” yeah right, that’s a pretty funny joke

Spur

..oh no. Its an Election Year in Ohio. The political commericals are starting. I’ve gotten three in that break.

This isn’t right… I’ve gotta get out of here! I’VE GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!

Old School Zero

Oregon’s not even part of any real election conversation, and I got two different Bloomberg ads during the last break.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Bloomberg can’t win without a strong showing on super Tuesday plus a near sweep of post super Tuesday states

Spur

I don’t know. Real estate is Ohio is so cheap.

Redshirt

Really? No one got the reference?

Going to watch with the TV sound off, and try to find the play by play by the KC crew on Sirius xm, I hope they are not too out of sync.

Old School Zero

You’re fired.

Redshirt

You’ll probably be a quarter to a half a play out of sync. Its best if radio is ahead so that way you know when to look at the TV screen. If the TV’s ahead but you have DVR, you may be able to pause it and fine tune it into sync.

ArmedandHammered

almost 4 minutes behind, so fuck that

Redshirt

Try a local AM radio station from a radio. My local AM station is showing both of today’s games and all the teams are out-of-region teams.

ArmedandHammered

actually went to the kc chiefs radio and it is sync’ed

Redshirt

When was the last time the playoffs was halfway done and the AFC was so wide open with no clear favorite?

Old School Zero

1994

Redshirt

So you’re saying bet it all on the Niners?

Don’t remind me I could’ve gotten into Bitcoin early and be a millionaire right now.

Old School Zero

As a former San Diego fan… yes, yes I am.

Just talked to my dad, so that’s checked off the list. Earlier made a spaetzle/leberkase hash for brunch, which hit the spot on a dreary day like today. Laundry’s going, one of the dogs is insisting on all the pets, and the coffee is finally working. Ate a 5mg edible a few minutes ago, so probably once the second quarter starts, I’ll be ready for some corn chips and drowning out the announcers with some DJ Qbert or Fucked Up.

Spur

Andy looks slimmer. Did he cut out the rhino meat?

Spur

Woot. I got a banner. Since it’s a noon start I decided to get out of the house and watch the 1st half at the neighbor bar

Senor Weaselo

Afternoon lizard people. I’m liking my gig so far. 30 minutes in and we’re just chilling and waiting, and due to union rules we have to be done by 10.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Don’t forget to take your cigarette break

Senor Weaselo

The smoking members of the string section have already taken one!

Spur

Folks

Old School Zero

can’t prove that

Painful Horse Accelerator.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I predict a shootout in Hou-KC and a DangeRuss upset at Lambeau.

I also expect to be wrong.

Spur

Ospreys are going to kill Rodgers early
