Browns v Texans first up.

Weather in Kansas for the Chiefs v Dolphins minus 20 forecast.

Haven't had a vested interest in the play offs for a long time (Broncos fan) but the last few years has seen some brilliant play off games which have been really enjoyable for the neutral.
As always, anyone but the Chiefs for me but I couldn't pick a winner this year.

First game is living up to those recent play off games. The four in the uk studio have either gone for the Ravens or the 49’s which is hard to argue against that. Think Detroit might cause an upset. Looking forward to the games though.

Yeah but there's no outstanding team this year so it could be a surprise winner.
Enjoy.

Eagles been a bit sketchy in the last few games, lost 4 out of 5. Hurts has a damaged hand also. You never know!

Nice to know there's two of us

I think we might sneak the Eagles but then we're out!

-28 wind chill, how does anyone stand a watch a game in that weather ?

Don't speak too soon.

Oh oh, now there's a pick.

Hahaha ha. Like watching Scousers lose.

Bizarre what’s happening in this game. Talk about bottling it.

As a Washington fan I couldn’t be happier. GB please blank them to HT.

Staggering non performance, playing the youngest least experienced team in the NFL and getting destroyed. As someone who used to live in Dallas I'm finding it hilarious

Another Bucs fan and I think we lose but hopefully give them a good game. Eagles are struggling at the minute and hopefully Hurts isn't 100%.

this is fabulous

JORDAN LOVE. Unbelievably good. The WRs are getting free with ease and he keeps finding them.

Will Seattle still be dialling DQ's number or begging PC to come back, all is forgiven!

Pleased for Detroit. A proper game of two halves. LA downed by not getting more than 3 points from their red zone visits.

MrTopTier · Post by **MrTopTier** » Mon Jan 15, 2024 11:57 am

Just caught up with these.
Green Bay played with no fear and Detroit’s defence excellent. Just seen the pictures from Buffalo, can’t believe that they will get that game on.

I noticed JJ Watt got embarrassed by plenty of fans for his comments around the Bills game having to be re-arranged.

Go Bucs

Buffalo blowing Pittsburgh out of the water.

Hope the Bucs and Eagles is a closer one.

Don’t like the roughing the passer call on Miles Jack. Allen was sliding feet first into Jack. Jack jumps to protect himself and comes down on Allen. No harm, poor call.

and it was fractions of a second late too, very tough call

He has 5.6m followers.
What’s “plenty” to you out of 5.6m?
The 30 or so I saw?

Plenty in this case means enough for him to admit he was wrong.

Massive win for Bucs against a poor Eagles team. Now it’s off to Detroit to tame them Lions. Sort of like going to Millwall lol. Go Bucs

Kilson810 · Post by **Kilson810** » Tue Jan 16, 2024 10:53 am

Superb result for the Bucs. It was great performance but also a great time to play the Eagles.

The Lions will be a massive test next weekend but hopefully we can build on the momentum.

Perhaps he admitted he was wrong because he realised he was wrong, not because he was frightened by the crowd?

I can’t shout for Bucs knowing they are owned by the Glazers.

Maybe he’s just a well adapted guy who has no problem with apologizing or admitting he’s wrong. Unlike you.

Well my Dolphins were as expected...Tua not looking like the man unfortunately

Got to chuckle at the Cowgirls and Eagkes mind you.

Hard to see past the Ravens but who knows - CJ Stroud could be one of the best rookie QBs since Luck

MrTopTier · Post by **MrTopTier** » Sat Jan 20, 2024 9:22 pm

Play offs

Baltimore v Houston

49’rs v Green Bay

First two games up tonight and early tomorrow

All four playoffs have good match ups

Baltimore and San Francisco for me, but think you can make an argument for either of the other two.

You're complaining about Tua? Imagine you're Franchise having Trevor "choke" Lawrence at QB!

Fair play to any team that can stop the Ravens.

Texans hanging in there.... (as they just missed a FG...)
The NFL is about parity, and its amazing the lengths they go to to ensure that (hard salary cap, draft picks, easier schedules for teams). . Even the worst run organizations can still make a playoff appearance.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sun Jan 21, 2024 4:20 am

cracking game between 49ers and Packers, 49ers a bit fortunate to win imho

claret wizard · Post by **claret wizard** » Sun Jan 21, 2024 9:15 am

Both Ravens and 49ers creaked back into action last night. Ravens shook off the rest period in the second half, but Green Bay were a different proposition to the Texans. Young, in form and relishing the difficult weather conditions they pushed a sluggish 9ers team. The first half loss of Deebo Samuel seemed to derail their efforts in the 2nd half. However, star quality brings rewards and McCaffrey and Kittle brought that in the final quarter. Couple that with 49ers fans still pinching themselves at the emergence of Brock Purdy, the only starting quarterback in the NFL who wasn’t a first round pick. Next weeks assignment against the Lions or Buccs seems a easier hill to climb.

Tricky Trevor · Post by **Tricky Trevor** » Sun Jan 21, 2024 1:07 pm

He got the W but overall I was disappointed in Purdy last night. I remember him being poor in last years play off loss and wonder if the nerves get to him?
He has been some find as Mr. Irrelevant, the final pick of the final round of the draft.

Allen vs. Mahomes - who is going to be the winner tonight?

Go Bills!

Detroit 10 Tampa Bay 10 HT.
