NFL back this week

Chiefs look shot. Confidence has ebbed away and Mahomes and Kelce losing their shit.

Their recruitment in the skill positions has really not worked.
 
How brilliant has Joe Flacco been for the Browns? 297 yards passing and 3 TD's in the first half last night. 39 next week and considered himself done with the game. Kept himself fit as injuries started happening to QB's and just hoped for a call. The Browns called him and he's now having one of his most dominant seasons ever and will lead the Browns into the playoffs. Good on him.

Fabulous story, I'm cheering on the Browns in the playoffs 👍
 
Oh well, Bills next week. Hope Tua's shoulder is ok.
Ravens look like a machine both sides of the ball.
Jesus, that looks like Chubb's season might be over☹️
 
Weird weird weird. Never saw that Cardinals win coming nor did I see the Fins capitulating so badly versus the Ravens either.

Houston destroying Tennessee like that was hilarious for a ‘revenge’ of a couple of weeks ago with the Oilers shirt fiasco.
 
After losing 56-19 to the Ravens, it will be interesting to see whether the Graeme Hick XI can bounce back this week. Not that I can see many teams going into Baltimore and winning a play-off game.

It would be funny for us to sweep the Jets again - even with this offense. Roll on the draft.

Yep, had an inevitability about it to be fair. Just watching the highlights, seemed we gave it a good go but injuries impacted again and we just gave Allen far to much time and Tua, again, got rushed into wrong throws

Oh well, on to Arrowhead, where, I actually fancy our chances
 
The game could easily have gone the other way, aTD off Van Ginkel's helmet that could just have easily been an interception and Goode getting injured and taking out Ingold, the man who would have tackled Harty on the punt return. Still on the last drive Hill dropped a pass that would have gone for a touchdown, he is far from 100% fit.
Three lb's going on IR from one game on top of Phillips and Chubb is just too much for one team even against a Chiefs offense that is a shadow of previous seasons. The best they can do, with Waddle and Mostert due to be back, is try to make it a shoot out but in that scenario who would you trust more, Tua or Mahomes?
Just to compound matters further it's forecast to be -12, the coldest either team will have ever played in.
I like to think I'm a glass half full man but I think we need a miracle.
 
Belichick and the Pats. have parted company, apparently. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see some other club take a chance on him - Atlanta, perhaps.

I dont think the coulda woulda shoulda falls In miami's favour, the bills were intercepted twice in the end zone and ran out of time at half time on the 1 yard line.

Bills defense kept miami pointless in the 2nd half, it was a convincing bills win.

They’d probably suit him? Big aggressive team, strong defensive unit but dog shit QB.

Very possible chunky. I suppose a lot depends upon whether he wants to start again somewhere else, because I don't think he would just want a short-term post. He is the wrong side of 70 though, I think.

Early speculation says that Vrabel may be a good fit for the New England job. If someone can plug the offensive line, add a wide receiver and a stud running back I don't think we would be in too bad a shape for next season.

Mike Vrabel is an absolute shoe in according to a lot of media outlets due to his legendary status at the Patriots. A good fit.

Really? They say it could be one of the coldest playoff games ever with minus temperatures on Saturday night. You'd have to say that gives the Chiefs the upper hand. A world away from the 35 degrees and 96% humidity of Florida.

I’d say they’ve got a couple of really good RBs with Zeke joining this season. Wide receiver core is poor though. Douglas looks a prospect and has had a nice rookie season but yes WR is weak area along with O line.
Mike Gesicki is capable TE too as is Hunter Henry.

Zeke's best days are well behind him, in my view. Offensive line is key, sort that out and a lot of this season's flops would produce an awful lot more.
 
Well I wasn't expecting the Texans to rip the Browns apart so easily. Amazing.

Next up Kansas v Miami. Look at this from Sky News. Bills v Pittsburgh already moved till Monday because of the weather.

Still in the first quarter miami down by a TD and just thrown an int. Do they have the ability to win this game?

I dont think so.
 
Miami were absolutely trounced. Tagovaiola literally got one play off for the touchdown and that's it. The scoreline could have been a lot worse as the Chiefs only had 2 touchdowns and scored 4 field goals which could have been TD's.

I thought Mahomes was imperious last night. Ever time the Phins rushed him it was out of his hands rapidly and often to Kelce and Rice.

Many times watching mahomes you see the pass rush bursting through, and you just hope he's going to get absolutely mangled. But he has this incredible ability to get the pass off or he does a pretty good impression of a wet bar of soap and makes the yards himself.
 
A game too far for the Dolphins. They looked beat up and just generally exhausted last night in what were brutal weather conditions. They will be a force again next year.

I was impressed by the Texans. Stroud looks like the real deal.
 
Dallas are the Newcastle United of the NFL.

The Detroit game was a nail-biter. I'm pleased for them. They get another home game next, don't they?

I’d say more Man United?

Once they dominated the sport, now they just flounder around every season spending money badly and expecting that they deserve to be champions

I think it was when they went 27-0 down the camera panned to the Dallas boardroom and you could see Jerry Jones having what appeared to be a massive tantrum. How I laughed.
