Your Yinzer/Wing How Did We Get Here Playoff Afternoon Thread

Well…

For the life of me, I still cannot piece together this season. We saw QB2s all the way to QB102, all of which were still better than Uncle Jack Pickett, Kissin’ Tittay Truthbisket, and especially MILF Hunter Z. As always, our pugilist, law-talkin’ aquatic mammal’s write up about the weekend’s playoff games is required reading. Go back, and peruse. We’ll wait.

Like the rest of this damn sport, the Stillers and Bills both confounded all season. At various times, Buffalo looked absolutely unstoppable, completely baffling, utterly inept, and suddenly strong.  Josh Allen is suddenly slinging to both sides, offense, defense, whomever. He’s been quite generous lately. Anyway, at one point 6-6, and seemingly left for dead, the Wagon Encirclers got their shit together at the right time. Coupled with some LOLphining, Western New York went from wondering if the Josh Allen window was closing, to AFC East champs in the span of two months.

The Stillers haven’t exactly looked great at any real point, yet somehow got to double-digit wins, and the Infernal Seveth Seed. I watched, read, or listened to as much of this year’s Urinating Dumpster Tree Fire every day all season. All I can honestly say is Tomlin Voodoo is real, it’s spectacular, and just accept it. I’ll get into far more detail (or, at least I’ll tell myself that) in the post-season post-mortem, but we all know the Yinzer Contingent Side only exists to disprove scientific theory.

The weather already moved this match today, which kind of benefits everyone. We now get Wild Card Double Headers three days in a row, which the NFL will undoubtedly exploit for gain. That they haven’t already by now, especially after the COVID season postponements laid out how to do this, is a minor miracle. PRAISE CAPITALIST JEEBUS! The weather in East Lake Erie is still pretty gnarly, and absolutely will effect aspects today. That’s the hope, anyway. Stillers pre-game on-site radio says* there’s still two feet of snow on the stands and in the concourses two hours before scheduled kick.

Whomever wins this game will represent the AFC in the Superb Owl. I’m actually pretty confident in that. So, sorry in advance to whomever I just cursed with a half-dozen crippling injuries because that’s kind of what I do.
