Game of the Year: The 2nd

It’s been a whole seven days since we’ve watched two juggernauts go at it. I’ll say a few things but this tilt kinda speaks for itself.

To The Game!

Bills/Chiefs:

-Can Buffalo stop Playoff Kelce? They held him to 2 catches for 8 yards in the regular season W but this guy has a streak of seven games with 100+ yards in the postseason.

-The running claim in these sorts of games is that turnovers matter but these teams just don’t give the ball away. Mahomes hasn’t thrown a pick since mid November and the Bills have committed the least turnovers of any team since 1950.

-Do the Chiefs have enough offense to keep up with the second-best scoring unit? Patty has connected on a paltry 12 deep passes all year long.

-Difference-makers Absent: Each team brought in a proven commodity at wideout to perk up the passing game but last week both Amari Cooper and D-Hop had 0 catches on just one target.

-When you take away the running game and the outside passing options something has to give and for the Chiefs they’ve been very vulnerable in  the slot. When these two last met Shakir had eight grabs.

-Though Allen is just 7-5 in the playoffs he’s tallied 23 TD’s and had but 4 INT’s. Mahomes postseason record stands at an unfathomable 16-3. Two of those losses were in OT.

-Sean McDermott has yet to win a road playoff game.

-Spreading The Ball: In each of their wins Allen has thrown the ball to eight different players.

-Can the Bills get to Mahomes? He’s been battling a high ankle sprain since December and was taken down three times last week vs the Texans.

-X Factor?: Xavier Worthy has made tremendous strides since the beginning of the season to the point that he has a minimum of 4 catches in eight straight games.

-Will Chiefs DC Spags choose to blitz Allen? K.C. chose that sort of pressure at the fourth-highest rate this year. Trouble is, Allen was ranked 2nd in EPA per drop back vs the blitz.

Hold onto your hammocks, it should be one for the ages.

6 minute game…

fleshwound_NPG

josh allen doing his best texas longhorns vince young impersonation carrying a dipshit college/franchise and coach to a title nobody deserves

Beerguyrob

And now the “if they’d kept that convert…” takes are actually coming.

Wakezilla

Terrible play calling by the Chiefs that entire drive

Horatio Cornblower

Good.

Beerguyrob

The “ooh, that’s a wasted time out” takes are a’coming.

The Maestro

God, I hate both these teams so much. Where’s Jovan Belcher when you need him?

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Nice to see Sean McDermott trying to turn Josh Allen into Wal-Mart Tua

Beerguyrob

Or Sam’s Club Derek Carr.

Gatoraids

Wants to have him accompany them on the NFL Severance Floor with Tua, Seau, and Hernandez

Redshirt

Okay Allen. Score and get me money!

Horatio Cornblower

3rd and 7, McDermott calls another tush push.

Downfield Matriculator

To line it up for the FG

Senor Weaselo

The kids want their Million Dollar Birthday Fry hats! Or at least that’s what it looked like they were wearing.

WCS

As long as the basket is extremely hot.

Horatio Cornblower

Ow! My freaking ears!

TheRevanchist

Another shot of Swift? We are truly living in the greatest times ever

Beerguyrob

Just finished dinner. What kind of fucking voodoo is this?!

fleshwound_NPG

sean mcdermott is a dipshit

Beerguyrob

Then it’s a good thing I started drinking the Fall ciders.

Beerguyrob

This was especially tasty.

Mr. Ayo

TAY TAY! Finally!

Redshirt

Who had “Questionable Spot in KC’s Favor”?

Doktor Zymm

They weren’t even taking bets on that because SURE THING

Gatoraids

Most questionable spots since Traci Lord hung her sheets out her window after her honeymoon

Horatio Cornblower

I would like to make a banner nomination…

Beerguyrob

“AVN Awards, 1985”.

Wakezilla

Can the NFL hurry up and let KC win. I’m getting nervous

Mr. Ayo

C’mon BLEEERGH, cash that CHEFS check!

Mr. Ayo

KA-CHING!

Horatio Cornblower

I think the Bills might have gotten screwed on that one, but also screw them for calling the same goddamn play that’s been shut down 3 of the last 4 times they ran it.

Gumbygirl

I thought they had it on the third down play.

Downfield Matriculator

Correct. No push to go with the tush

Jimbo

Nice, Over The Top.

Gumbygirl

Does anyone else think Colbert’s show booked Deion because they thought Jerrah was going to hire him?

fleshwound_NPG

sean mcdermott might not be a good coach of football

they have solved my QB Sneak Left? try it a third time!

ballsofsteelandfury

THEY’LL NEVER SEE IT COMING!

Senor Weaselo

That security guard took our hearts!

fleshwound_NPG

YAY HE DID A DIFFERENT THING

fleshwound_NPG

DUMBASS DID IT AGAIN

litre_cola

THey aren’t very good at that.

Doktor Zymm

I looked up and saw a replay of a blatant facemask. It was on a Bills player so I assume the replay was because it wasn’t called?

Horatio Cornblower

CBS: This week, On FBI: “We need to shut this down before more New Yorkers get hurt!”

Me: “Now hang on…”

Horatio Cornblower

I cannot even begin to explain what a half-assed effort I would put into anything that had a Michelob Ultra riding on the outcome.

Horatio Cornblower

Hits like that are why Mahomes is gonna name his next kid ‘Zinc Oxide’

WCS

Harrison Butker will use his inevitable game-winning kick to show MANNLY MEN ARE MEN AND MEN DO MEN STUFF

Gatoraids

Best Effort by a cook since Iron Chef Sakai

Downfield Matriculator

Nice shout out to one of the OGs — Sakai was the only one who passed the “would have a beer with him” test.

Gatoraids

Chen would be fun too, he seemed like a real nice guy

Senor Weaselo

Andy Reid wants to hear more about this Kitchen Stadium…

Downfield Matriculator

That was an A+effort by Cook

fleshwound_NPG

holy shit what a reach

Horatio Cornblower

Just so everyone knows, if Cook gets knocked out of the game by anyone of Polynesian descent, I have dibs on the Sandwich Islands joke.

Senor Weaselo

“Oh no you don’t!” -Maestro

Yes, I’m old

Gatoraids

appreciated her in the Outer Limits episode

Redshirt

I’m old but not too old so I could appreciate her in Who’s the Boss without breaking any law or morals.

ballsofsteelandfury

I always love and appreciate sloppy Photoshops.

Horatio Cornblower

I’ll guarantee Patches put more work into that photoshop than they did in the plot of that movie.

Beerguyrob

Then you’re gonna LOVE Hate Week!

Brocky

Another josh allen down

Horatio Cornblower

That is not Josh Allen.

ballsofsteelandfury

Is that a weird angle or did that ball look like it crossed the goal line?

Gatoraids

Bills better avoid any encroachment calls before the half

Beerguyrob

One time out; 18 seconds. What could Mahomes do? Never seen that before.

ballsofsteelandfury

Uf. I don’t like taking points off the board…

Bogdanski

Perfect timing with Rob

litre_cola

See below.

Mr. Ayo

Yep. A Bills TD + Chefs FG equals Bills loss now.

Horatio Cornblower

As has been written…

Beerguyrob

Oh, the classic, “taking points off the board” sound bites are a’coming.

Horatio Cornblower

Doesn’t make sense in this case. It’s two possessions either way.

ballsofsteelandfury

Plus, there’s a whole half to go!

Beerguyrob

Gumbygirl

Why didn’t they go for it in the first place?

Gumbygirl

.

nevermind-gildaradner
Horatio Cornblower

That’s a hell of a catch. Not sure where the interference was.

King Hippo

You called it, 40 yards off back foot.

fleshwound_NPG

oh what

Beerguyrob

Just got this in my inbox. I don’t think this is the ticket renewal info the front office thinks it is.

IMG_6566
Mr. Ayo

Look, at least his middle name isn’t Kevin.

Gatoraids

surprised they didnt including his middle name Kent to appeal to the new order

Beerguyrob

The MAGA equivalent of a DEI hire.

Redshirt

My guess is a threat. Renew or we’ll hire him?

Redshirt

I’ve been commenting on the last thread. Oops.

Horatio Cornblower

“Man, no one’s talking to me. I wonder if I said something wr…Oh. Oh, I see.”

Gumbygirl

I was commenting on this one 20 minutes before anyone got here.

Horatio Cornblower

The Chiefs are simply unlikeable, which is odd considering they’re led by such a charming, caring individual like Andy Reid.

Gatoraids

we are still recovering from the Greatriots reign so its all too soon to be trigggering our trauma

Doktor Zymm

Dynasties can fuck right off

Beerguyrob

China, 1905.

fleshwound_NPG

mahomes/allen is not brady/manning because lamar’s career arc is exactly manning’s

King Hippo

Without putting his penis on a trainer’s head.

Cecil Rhodes

Not really sure why Kelce was not flagged for taunting after the TD there. I suppose that an Englishman could never understand the nuances of officiating in an American sport!

litre_cola

Savages.

Horatio Cornblower

Well, he plays for the Chiefs, you see.
