Week 18 isn’t fantasy friendly that much but it does deliver on the Wrapping Things Up front, I’ll give it that. Strouding proudly into the playoffs are the Texans. You could sorta, kinda see it as their rookie qb showed that he was beyond his years and adapted even as D coordinators gathered film on him.
To The Game!
Bills/Fins:
-Diggs has been in a tremendous funk recently-he’s not gone over 74 yards in the last seven weeks. With cb Howard not being available it’s a question of whether Ramsey will shadow him or if the Fins will take a chance with (he’s still in the league?) Eli Apple.
-That Apple doesn’t fall far from the “allowed 3 catches for 104 yards and a TD last week” tree.
-Miami is 1-4 ATS vs teams that have a winning record. Seems bad but this is a team that is still on the rise. They are going to be better but they’re a bit over-rated imo, because they’re so entertaining when they win.
-Prop-age: The dust has been shaken off Fournette and he’s been activated for this game. His anytime TD number is +500. Why wouldn’t he be given the ball inside the 5 yard line and not risk an injury to Allen? Five of my $12 DFO bucks are in play.
-This McDaniels kid is going to be in the league for quite some time. Why? Durham Smythe is my example. Now that film is out there and teams have adjusted he’s running some of the exact same offensive sets but scheming his blocking tight end free. The last two weeks he’s gone for 50+ yards and averaged over 18 yards per catch vs the Ravens last week.
-Speaking of, the guy you don’t know that will get the most interviews during the next hiring cycle? That’s Miami OC Frank Smith.
-Allen has to get the motor running, get out on the highway and pass for more than 250 yards. That’s something he hasn’t done since the Bills bye week.
-The key to throwing Tua off his game? Pressure and identifying his first read. Defend long enough and his chances of success drop significantly. When he goes to his first read his completion percentage is a very impressive 80%.
Give me what you got.

Goddamnit, FINE then…
Frankie (2000-2012)
He was a good dog and a glorious knucklehead.
Awwwwwwwwwwww. He looks like a very comfortable, happy, good, lil boy.
Well fuck. Just tested positive for the covo. Got them double stripe blues…
I don’t want to plus-one that?
Any idiot can do that.
How are the discharges from your penis? That’s the professional game.
Good luck, my friend.
Whelp, feeling a bit too achy to rub one out, so the discharges are nonexistent at this point..
But your wishes of well being are very much appreciated, Brick & WCS. Might look into the paxlovid..
Feel better, we have important playoffin’ to do!
Adorable!
Yup. Kitten’s cute too…
Rappaport saying Arthur Smith has been demoted from HC of the Falcons to stock-boy intern at the Home Depot in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
I read that as “SUCK boy intern” but is funny either way
That’s Cricket’s intern.

CHILDHOOD TRAUMA ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED
whatever the fuck is that
Small brag – ESPN 10 random strangers league.
I’m going to assign old-timey causes of death to each team as they exit the playoffs. Already thinking ‘failure to thrive’ for the Iggles, ‘dropsy’ for the Chiefs, and ‘chillblains’ for Miami
Gout for the Packers
Demonic possession/witchcraft for the Chiefs (there’s a disturbing subculture of people who genuinely believe T-Swift is Satan)
Cholera for the Eagles.
I can’t find an old-timey jargon for heart attack, but that would be Stillers. Both for their play, and their fanbase’s cholesterol and saturated fat levels.
Apoplexy?
I always thought that meant more epilepsy or some kind of seizure syndrome, maybe triggered by tumors.
I could be wrong.
Apoplexy == stroke.
Shouldn’t that be for Detroit because of the public drinking water vector?
I was just thinking of how poopy the Eagles have been playing.
Dysentry!
At your own peril.

Terry Tate had a strong impact on early 2000s WCS and Co.
so, who’s getting the pirate bowl on peacock
They said earlier it would be the Chiefs. So…Chiefs-Dolphins.
hell yea, piss off the swifties
goodell, you dumbass
Taylor will livestream it on her youtube
Fins at Chefs.
I would rather be subjected to an episode of MST3K where the film in question is just all of my poor life choices one after the other than get Peacock just to watch this game.
So, Deep Hurting: The Movie?
Well that’s a regular season wrap folks. Get yourselves in playoff form for next week!
The other 18 teams fanbases who didn’t make the playoffs:
Eric Cartman – Screw You Guys Im Going Home [HD] (youtube.com)
next week in buffalo, ny parking lot
fitting that moment in history took place in pittsburgh
I think the best thing you could say about his last pass is that Tua did hit the eventual receiver right in the numbers.
lol it was even intended for chase claypool. in double coverage.
what even
Of course that’s what’s gonna happen when you throw it at a guy named T.Rapp.
a reminder this is what the greatriots “dominated” over for multiple decades
these dumbfucks that didnt want to win this game tonight
Well, fuck.
On the road in freezing weather in KC. This will certainly end well for the Dolphins.
Should be a fun watch at least, and it’s not like Miami will need a defense if KC still has dropsy
About as well as ‘The Cove’
Ordinarily I’m not in favor of QBs trying to get their receivers killed, but it was Tyreek Hill.
This is so tense, and I don’t particularly care who wins.
This plane has seatback tv, but not the game so I’m watching NFL recap instead since they should have live updates

If I could think of a way to ban the “try to draw the offsides” fake fourth down attempt, I’d be all for it.
That idjit was ONE STEP from out of bounds before his shock collar kicked in.
He actually was out of bounds and the officials missed it.
why is he running towards the sideline?!?!?!
Because he’s fucking stupid
Nice effort on tackling, #4 for Miami. Guy did everything but actually run away from Allen.
Holy cats, lookit that rugger GO!
dont you fucking compare him to elway
elway late in the game was scary
allen late in the game was scary to his own team
Also Elway never won a Superb Owl until Terrell Davis showed up.
and dan reeves was told to shove it, and one day waste another mobile qb’s prime
Elway was smart enough to get into (and graduate from) Stanford. But physically, sure.
That’s nonsense, he got in on an equestrian scholarship.
The only way Josh Allen gets to be compared to John Elway is down the road when, as Bills GM, he hires aging Arch Manning from the Bears to finally get the Bills that eluwive Super Bowl.
Arch manning on the bears?
I won’t argue
they tried to body slam allen to a first down
all that was missing was the flaming table to slam him on #BillsMafia
Collinsworth saying that he would tell Brokeback to “you be you” is just peak Cris: fellating the QB while paying absolutely no attention to what’s been going on in the game. Allen being Allen is why the Bills aren’t currently up by at least two and maybe as many as four TDs.
He’s such an asshole.
Allen being Allen is the only hope for Miami to get back in it (given the sputtering Dolphins offense this half)
Miami’s defense seems to be being carted off the field one-by-one. Allen going against the 3rd string probably gets Buffalo the game.
Meanwhile on Rikki’s (significantly more enjoyable) broadcast…
It used to be that when a TV commercial was a set in an airport terminal, they actually shot the scene in the L.A. Convention Center. This was to avoid crowds, security, ease of production, etc. Now. apparently, SoFi Stadium is whoring out as the new “airport” shooting location of choice in Los Angeles County, available for hire on off-game days.
Feel free to ask me more questions about this shit.
They probably rent it out on days that the Chargers are playing, to ensure there are less people wandering around then when it’s actually closed.
miami is THIS CLOSE to considering using a silent count
Guess the best way for the Bills to score is to keep Josh Allen on the sidelines while they do it.
It worked for the bears on 2006!
Fins lose another edge defender-they are toast in the playoffs.
I’ve been amazed how much pressure they’ve been able to get tonight.
Morning everyone. I told you I’d take a wake me when it’s over approach to the late games, and it worked. Now for a run and get this week started thang. I get a quick trip to Sicily this week. It will probably snow on my great seafood plans.
buffalo’s best offense tonight is keeping josh allen from touching the ball
Probably should have scrolled down before typing pretty much the exact same thing up there.
Allen’s been horrific tonight.
I have shifted to hoping for a late Hail Mary plus two, for a 15-14 Peak Brokeback win.
My high school football team had 4 tight ends.
Only three were basketball players.
The fourth was the starting tight end who got the job from being the best blocker
Was it YOU??
Nah. I played end, guard, and tackle
When we pick teams for Clubhouse scrimmage, I’mma draft you early
Will there be snacks?
TOTES. Punch and pie!!
Dok (and other aficianados) – seems to me Brokeback would make one hell of a rugger. Agree?
And without forward passes he wouldn’t have to worry about those pesky interceptions!
No joke though, he probably would be a good scrum-half or centre
yeah, the urge to forward pass just kills the poor dummy
It could potentially be really interesting to get american QB style throws on fully cross-field laterals right when the ball is retrieved from the scrum
He’s way too big for scrumhalf. He’d probably be good in the 5, 6, or 7 jersey.
He’s big, but I really don’t see him as a forward
Edit: turns out Mike Phillips was a similar height/weight to Allen when he played scrum half for Wales
Mayyybe a number 8, but he really doesn’t play like a lock or flanker in my view
bills with 300 yards but 7 points
they REALLY dont want to play in that cold
BRRRR COLD HARD TRUFF
That wasn’t snow he was playing in…
This is a man who is paid to SPEAK. On national TV.
what did i say
REALLY dont wanna play in that cold
