Yeah. But with a 1 pt win over Detroit. 5 pt win over Washington. And plenty of other small wins over bad teams it’s not a terribly convincing 13-3. Not to mention getting their doors full blown off by both the Niners and the Chargers.
The Ravens got whipped.
First time I’ve seen a little pout in Lamar Jackson.
It’s not on Cam Newton’s level, but it was certainly there last night
looking at these two games, it was evident that the main difference between winning big and losing big was dominate line-play vs anemic line-play: the two winning teams had amazing offensive lines and great defensive lines ... San Fran didn’t even have to pass the ball in the fourth quarter, and the Titan’s Derrick Henry ran for 195 yards while Lamar Jackson never had a chance to pass the ball as all he did was scramble around to avoid being sacked ...
There is no good weekend of pro football after they put their cleats into the back of my, and any other vet that served and/or gave up their lives and bodies, neck for them to use to gain their respect.
You want respect, earn it. Using others to bitch about not having it is just as disrespectful as that you wish to obtain. I still hate you for it. And I don’t think I’m alone.

The playoffs are big boy football time
In these games the team that really wants at the most with the best coaching is the one that wins
There are no gimme’s ; there is no home-field advantage; there is no mercy -in playoff football
You can bet for damn sure dead Baltimore wanted that game hell a bad yesterday
Why is Tennessee so good?
Two reasons primarily ; one - their running back , Derek Henry , and to the coach Mike Vrabel.
Vrabel is a former outstanding linebacker for the New England Patriots for over a decade and as a defense of minded individual with incredible knowledge of the game
You could see both with the win in the New England Patriots and the win yesterday at Baltimore he had the perfect defense of schemes to counter both opposing quarterbacks two of the best in the game, Tom Brady and Lamar Jackson
You could also see in the San Francisco 49er game another dominating defense of performance and running game there was way too much for Minnesota
It has been said many times it is worth repeating
Defense wins championships
It’s not pretty it’s not good television however if you remember the game last year what was the halftime score? 3 to 0?
That is why the New England patriots beat the Los Angeles Rams last year
In the playoffs the best defense beats the best offense every single time
Bosa is a MAchine. ! Unstoppable force of nature !
Love the Niners this year. Tough as nails
Rooting for Deshaun Watson today, and the Clemson Tigers tomorrow!
Die hard Bengals fan here. But haven’t watched in a long time.
however, I do believe there is something to the idea supporting the petition to the Ohio State Medical Board petition calling Bengals and Brown fanatics a ‘condition’ worthy of ‘medication’
SEVEN touchdowns on SEVEN consecutive drives?!??!!?!?
Watson is very good.
Coach should be executed at dawn.
Maybe even midnight tonight.
Fake punt from your own 36 when you’re up 24?!?!?!!?
At some point you have to be able to get running yards from somebody other than your quarterback.
That fake play by the Texans made no sense!
Was he THAT terrified of the Chiefs’ offense that he thought he couldn’t let them have the ball back?
Well they got the ball back anyway and in great field position and you could Feel the momentum change!
I Thought the game was over when it was 24 to 0.
Then when I saw that the first quarter was a fluke and saw how easily the Chiefs were scoring in the second quarter, I knew it was over when the Chiefs went up 4.
That coach needs to go!
I’m thinking it’s time for both Brees and Brady to enjoy retirement - was rooting for the Saints and either Bridgewater or Hill would have probably won the playoff game for them..
