So Big Brothers Big Sisters of America and the United Negro College Fund are “BLM causes”?
Awesome!
are those the only 3?
Coach Epps responded by firing the offensive coordinator, the tight ends coach, and the defensive secondary coach.
Sat
Los Angeles Rams at Green Bay As I said, surprised that the Rams so easily beat the Seahawks Saturday. Now on to Lambeau with an impaired Jared Goff and a less-than-one-hundred-percent Aaron Donald. Against a rejuvenated man-on-a-mission Aaron Rodgers. So Rams.... your season ends today. PACKERS.
Baltimore at Buffalo The Ravens and Lamar Jackson showed something last week, recovering from an early 10 point deficit on the road to win, and totally shutting down the league's leading rusher (OTOH, maybe Henry was just tired from all those regular season carries). Now they shuffle off to Buffalo. But the Ravens strength - running the ball - matches well with a Bills weakness - stopping the run. So in a mild upset... RAVENS.

Cleveland at Kansas City The Browns put up a playoff record 28-point first quarter last week, helped greatly by Steeler ineptitude. Now they get the overwhelming Super Bowl favorite Chiefs at home in KC. Will the Chiefs cooperate and turn the ball over five times? I doubt it. But the Browns do have the running game with Chubb and Hunt to control the clock and keep Patrick Mahomes off the field, which is about the only way to control the Chiefs offense. And the Browns have put up over 40 points several times this season so they are no slouches on 'O' themselves. I would love to see them win this game... so what the hey. BROWNS.
Tampa Bay at New Orleans The Saints have beaten the Bucs twice already, and one of those games was a 38 - 3 thumping. One might think the Saints have the Bucs number. In this game between the two geezer QBs of the league - combined age 84 I believe - I believe the Saints have the more complete and diversified offense and that will be the difference. SAINTS.
Good luck everyone with your picks! Have a great weekend and pray for Our Nation.
Not looking anything up, just going by my pure guess and experience in some of these places, and definitely watching the past ~40 years...
For Rams @ Packers ( 4:35 PM EST ) - it was 36F in Green Bay, 80F in LA.
Ravens @ Bills ( 8:15 PM EST ) - Buffalo gets cold, and can be windy... I’m going to say 28F,
Sunday’s games will be:
Browns @ Chefs ( 3:05 PM EST ) - It’ll be a reasonable 55F or so at kickoff, but as the day, and thus game, go along, it’ll drop. I think ending somewhere around 45F.
Buccaneers vs Saints ( 6:40 PM EST) - 78F or so inside the Superdome, since it’s indoors, weather will NOT be a factor.
Which of the others are “BML causes”?
BLM :[
"Imp, we have no Buccaneers gal on call. I had to go back to a bygone era" 
Yvonne: "Ready at a moments notice. Go Bucs!" "Yvonne, great But football isn't your game ..." Bought the Pack at 6-1 before the holiday and feeling fancy...
First national felon league game I’ve watched in 4 years since the kneeling crap.
My Browns are in playoffs first time in 26 yrs so I’m checking out the game.
So bizzarre..the Brown’s quarterback is getting no cover or protection from his team.
He’s like Trump surrounded by Rhinos!
“Will the Chiefs have starting QB Patrick Mahomes for next Sunday’s AFC title game vs. Buffalo? Oddsmakers must think so as they have opened Kansas City as a 3-point favorite.”

Packers favored by 3
Over Bucs
Very early line
The Saints turn the ball over four times. Four times! Ugh....
The Browns had their chances but did not execute. These things cost you in a playoff game.
The Ravens laid a major egg in Buffalo and only managed to put up three points.
The only game that really held true to form was Green Bay - Los Angeles.
I hope Patrick Mahomes is okay to play next week. If not we could have a Bucs - Buffalo Super Bowl and I would not bet against Tom Brady in that situation.
How did Bellicheat’s team do in the playoffs? Oh, wait.
Go GOAT!
Well, the GOAT was carried by his defense today. But a win is a win and it’s on to Lambeau Field. Should be a great game.
You think the Bucs make it to the NFC Championship game this year without Brady?
Interesting note, if the Bucs make it to the Super Bowl, all three Tampa teams will have made it to their Championships (Lightning, Rays and Bucs)
No the Bucs would not have made it without Brady. I was merely pointing out there are many ways to win a game and yesterday the Bucs D gave Brady great opportunities. Which he took advantage of.
Long term forecast
GB: 24F Clear
KC: 30s, some precipitation
