In Memoriam Danny Lee (BENDER2)

[twyn1]

Not yet — they let 2 touchdowns in with less than 3 minutes to go earlier this year

[cowboyusa]

I think we are going to win the whole thing.

I think we are going to win the whole thing.

[teeman8r]

oh hell to those redskins

[dfwgator]

I wouldn’t bet against the Eagles. I think they’ll definitely beat the Chiefs, I think the Bills would give them a better game.

[twyn1]

Whew! Okay, now I can watch! I loved the slow-mo of Shipley running ... he could feel the goal line but ... just ... could... not ... get ... there

Fly-Eagles-Fly!

[dfwgator]

That turned into a royal butt kicking.

[dfwgator]

And honestly, even if the Lions won last week, I didn’t see them beating the Eagles, especially with the decimated defense.

[twyn1]

Yeah, it did ... wow!

[cowboyusa]

Yeah, but coming into the Linc is different
Philly- Washington is going to be a great rivary.

[dfwgator]

Hurts was excellent today. Philly is unbeatable if he has a good game.

[twyn1]

I just watched the replay of the 3-in-a-row encroachment penalties (2 with Luvo flying over both lines) — what a crazy series of plays. I have never known that a referee can award a score if that keeps happening, but at that point it was pretty much a Brotherly Shove gimmee anyhow

[rdl6989]

The Bills don’t look very good right now.

[twyn1]

Allen had a slow start last week (IIRC) — but definitely need to step it up — sloppy game for them so far — and dumb penalties

[cowboyusa]

I want KC. I want revenge

[WhoisAlanGreenspan?]

3rd & Goal BUF 12:00 15-P.Mahomes scrambles right end for 1 yard TOUCHDOWN. PENALTY on BUF-97-J.Phillips Unnecessary Roughness 8 yards enforced between downs.

A different Buf player made a tackle on Mahomes, Kelcey came in to give some grief for the tackle and #97 Buf took exception to that and got the penalty.

Penalties 4 on Buf 1 on KC

[FamiliarFace]

If KC wins (as Vegas would like), I’m wondering what the odds are of Kelce getting down on one knee in front of a “super” surprised Tay-Tay at some point during the broadcast. Her adoring fans will swoon.

[twyn1]

I haven’t seen any shots of Taylor — I read she was there tho’ — we turned the game off at half-time — my DH detests the Chiefs now (we both used to like them) and he fumes once the penalty flags and questionable calls start — too much Taylor/Kelce and Mahomes the untouchable (I actually think he seems like a genuinely nice guy) — I’m just keeping track of the score for now

[cowboyusa]

Bills have momentium.

[FamiliarFace]

They showed her after the first TD.

I think Mahomes is a fine guy, but I’m sick of the Kelce/ Tay Tay Show.

I’m ready to see the Bills advance, but we will have to see what TPTB think.
