As Barry Manilow so eloquently put it, “Looks like we made it!”. Quoting Manilow drives traffic to the site, I read that back in the early ’90’s and I’m sure it still holds true today. While there are some games that have playoff implications the majority of these tilts are more along the lines of a Draft Order Hokey Pokey so teams will be putting their left foot both in and out.
To The Games!
Bucs/Falcons:
Atlanta has once again proved that you can find viable running back talent fairly late in the draft. I’m sure that Allgeier was drafted as Patterson insurance and has ended up with 900 (on the button!) yards. If you’re an old school coach that is dedicated to the run you just don’t have to expend resources on the rb spot.
Pats/Bills:
I’m glad the scheduling gods have Buffalo at home for this one because the outpouring of support for Damar and the team is going to be something special. The coverage of it? Well, needless to say I’ll be muting the hell out of that crap.
Vikes/Bears:
Nothing about this game catches my fancy, except for maybe a fancy catch by Jefferson.
Ravens/Bengals:
Does anyone have an update on Lamar’s status? The coaching staff has been quiet about what’s going on which strikes me as odd-no daily updates, little word on progress. Has he shut it down? Odd.
Texans/Colts:
Oh look, it’s a slap fight between two homeless alcoholics.
Jets/Fins:
Next year I think the AFC East will be the best division in the footed ball universe. Each team has purpose and is headed in the right direction. I’m certain that New York will give White a shot at the starter spot and that should provide a bit of stability there.
Panthers/Saints:
Meh.
Browns/Steelers:
Sorry Cleveland, Tomlin has to keep his .500+ streak intact and his slim playoff hopes alive. You’ll be rolling over as you always do-it’s in your DNA.
Have at it.
ThShaun, putting his ball in the wrong place.
TheShaun is pretty slick at avoiding pressures and charges from people trying to catch him.
like how theyve expanded red zone coverage of the fins jets to be anyone who cross the 50
You’d think this fixture was being played in a monsoon or some shit.
Oh, God, no. I have to root for the Patriots.
Good…good
Here’s an iguana.
Of note I said “pbthh” to it several times, but without effect. It seems to know nothing of Iguana Mart.
Looks a lot like a tree branch, tbh…
if’n the GREATRIOTS win? They’ll be on to Cincinnati.
Oof! Timely INT by Buffalo!

Since when was James Taylor an action star??
Former President James Taylor
I was just being a smart ass. I had no idea that actually is James Taylor
It is James Taylor. This was the only movie he was ever in, and he claims he’s never seen it.
Hes seen FIre and Rain.
and this summer he’ll see……… revenge
I think Two-Lane Blacktop is one of the greatest movies ever made. It’s this month’s movie night selection with my cousins, later this week.
My largest regret during the holiday season was not nicknaming the Tulane Blacktop while they pulled the upset.
We’re expecting a FULL WRITEUP on this, good sir.
me or scotchnaut? (I just realized “scotchnaut” means “scotch traveller”)
Fat guy TD!
TheShaun just loves giving things away to people who aren’t expecting it.
The Stillers are looking more and more like the late ’00s-’10s WVU Cousinfuckers. There’s going to be mostly frustration and gnashing of teeth with the occasional burst of brilliance, and it ends by destroying Clemson in the Orange Bowl!
Hey Gabba Gabbert is in
Yo
Hey, Zac! Take the hint…

P*ts could also back door in, with LOLfins and Stillers losses. At least I think so.
You are correct
No back door. They win, they’re in.
Feels weird for Balls to be saying no to the back door.
I’m gonna screenshot it
I mean, his favorite bet is a back door cover, just saying.
That’s because I’m rooting for the Steelers back door. A true and glorious back door.
The highlight they showed of the Miami-Jets game was a field goal. Pretty sure that is a bad sign.
its either that or the Hill injury

Okay, Boyd is banged up and we have a three score lead.

And NAWT a losing season!
Who would have thought watching him in his 1st year that Allen could go thru all his reads on any given play?
He’s done learnings!
“I didnt even know there was more than one read until I left North Dakota, give me a break!”
That’s still one more read than Lea Michele!
Looks like I’ll also be able to get an extra $8k or so from the company in my 401k because of the way they match, getting laid off is awesome
Quoth the Ravens, one pick more.

just realized, growing up I hated we had brown eggs from the nearby farm and not the white eggs from the supermarket. Those brown eggs are now considered premium.
And yet they are still exactly the same inside!
Prior to the 1930s, on the west coast salmon was called “poverty steak” because it was so plentiful. My mother grew up in Newfoundland, and she says that during the Depression the poor kids ate lobster for lunch; if you brought a cheese sandwich it meant your family was rich.
I read somewhere that when ‘the hired help’ were negotiating the terms of their employment they’d ask that they not be given lobster more than three times a week.
There’s also a legend that rules existed limiting how frequently it could be fed to prisoners. I think it was refrigerated rail cars that helped out the various local sea foods
Coin Flip TD Celebration!
Coach Taylor has wisely and seemingly successfully deployed the “everyone’s out to get us” motivational technique.
Looks like I’m gonna blow $900 on a fancy Garmin watch for the bulk of the wellness monies
I know watches and DO NOT spend $900 on a Garmin watch.
I’m serious about this. If you want to buy a watch and know a proper price point just ask.
Unless it’s not your money then go ahead.
Bingo, this is all in the spirit of wringing every last dime out of my erstwhile employer 😀
I’m trying to blow through my wellness stipend before my official last employment date on Friday, and Garmins are fitness trackers so they qualify for reimbursement
This one has good GPS that works in the middle of nowhere and solar charging, so it should actually be useful
Then go ahead, it’s a good device. Watches can be bought from legitimate dealers for half the list price; they have an enormous mark-up, and dealers will haggle. Hell, they don’t respect you if you don’t haggle…
It’s a good one for a traveler. A lot of the boys wear them so they are probably durable and decent.
The Chargers are the 5th seed but I think they’re the most flawed team in the AFC playoffs, and yes that includes the Jags.
Tony Romo: Over-caffeinated spastic blatherer
Be amusing if the Bearistocrats! took Bryce Young, moved Strawberry Fields to tailback/gadget man.
That would certainly be helpful in their mission to cripple (physically, mentally, and/or emotionally) every QB that plays for them!
Good thing Peterman comes pre-mentally broke
Taysom Hill-back?
That’s Jakobi’s 2nd insaneballs TD catch since he seemingly lateraled the season away.
If you are a Falcon defender, and have ANY PRIDE WHATSOEVER…how do you NOT cripple MRSA Dreamboat, playing solely to pad his stats??
Will contribute my DFO stock towards the fine
That was a cool picture of Damar, looks like he will be OK.
Recall the many, many times the stars aligned for the Pats over the years? Well, astronomy is a bitch goddess that is taking names and kicking ass.
the Narrative voodoo left town with facking MRSA Dreamboat
WE WILL RETURN TO GREATNESS WHEN TAWMMY RETURNS TO FOXBORO NEXT YEAHH! BAWSTON STRONG!!
Well, would you look at that! Christopher Marlowe, the bard that time forgot, is in at safety for the Bills in place of their heartbroken colleague! Let us hope that his play does not resemble A Comedy of Errors!
“How funny, I just read a Doctor Who book where Christopher Marlowe was a character!” – Hunter Renfrow (but also Rikki-Tikki-Deadly)
Texans trying give up the 1st pick overall.
Hobo Lovie Smith ain’t care!
I see Joe Eszterhaus went with good old-fashioned fanservice when he wrote the opening scene.
Pats fans, 14 seconds into the game: WELP
NAWT FAIRUH
Buffalo returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown?! Even a movie studio would reject that as unrealistic.
Hey Pats, going backwards is not a viable strategy.
a Southie NAWT FAYUHHH!!! emanates from Casa de Zymm del Este
Moring Folks
Wow! Opening kick off return to a tuddy for the Bills. Pats might be in trouble.
Yep. Pats with negative 7 yards of offense with a 3 and out.
Anyone have suggestions for wellness related crap I can spend $1300 on in the next week?

That reminds me, I should set up a website where I offer to perform long-distance reiki for a fee.
A mom of a kid my spawn knows does the egg therapy thing
In Covid times, one could pay for a Zoom call to see the video and sounds at home. Wtf
I think it would be a lovely tribute to that Damar guy if they buried him at the 50 yard line at halftime. What a feel-good moment that would be, and he deserves the honor.
It’s Buffalo in the winter, so bury him in snow?
Deep deep down in that Erie County dirt.

Thanks to the rain, I’ll be able to watch the last day of Red Zone in its entirety. If anything can make this slate of games seem okay, it’ll be coked up Red Zone guy!

Lamar is resting for the playoffs. No reason to risk the franchise for a 50/50 chance at a home game.
Also, the Bengals are playing motivated and with a chip on their shoulder, and they may meet in the playoffs. Don’t give them any films or possibly reveal how hurt/healthy he really is.
They’s also resting Tyler Huntley, which makes me think Lamar! has put away his flannel shirts for the season.
I’m not sure I’d describe the Jets having lost five in a row as “heading in the right direction”. I’d go more with “heading in the Jets direction”.
“Heading the Jets direction” aka “Reverting to the mean”
(insert 9/11 joke here)
