Cam runs it in!



(xtra kick missed) 10-9 Bills

ando here 12-28-2020 07:20 PM



Easy Allen pass to Lee Smith. 17-9 Bills

Mindfulness 12-28-2020 07:29 PM

If the bears beat the packers Sunday, the bears will get to the playoffs I think

ando here 12-28-2020 07:36 PM

Bears beat the Packers? Did U see the Pack last night? In the snow? For your sake I hope Bears prevail but em... you never know!

Meanwhile -



Stefon Diggs doin his thing. 24-9 Bills

Plankton 12-28-2020 07:54 PM

If the Cards lose, Bears still get a free pass to the PO's. Not bloody likely though, guv'na.

ando here 12-28-2020 08:18 PM



Diggs again. 31-9 Bills

Starting to play sloppy on both sides tho. Trouble with early blow outs. Almost wish Brady was back with Pats. Least there'd still be a game.

ando here 12-28-2020 08:42 PM



and again. Allen to Diggs. 38-9 Bills

ando here 12-28-2020 09:21 PM

Dang. YT is on it tonight. Oh well, was there any doubt about the final?

Surprised that insane Dolphins/Raiders ending wasn't discussed here.

Plankton 12-29-2020 09:34 AM

I didn't watch it. Wow.

Very nice. Of all the NFL QBs Fitz has got to be having the most fun. Journeyman QB with nothing to prove and still a playoff contender. Though Miami’s not beating my Bills next Sunday ;) it’ll be fun to see Fitz (with a sprinkling of Tua) square off against Allen.

As a Chiefs fan, their wins have been unconvincing to me lately. Their o-line has problems. Hopefully, with the first seed now clinched, they can get things together. I still like them to go to the Super Bowl. Hopefully we get Edwards-Helaire back so we can run the ball down the Bills' throats again.

Best of luck to you ando, but considering you're a Bills fan, I know you're no stranger to post-season disappointment.

While I’m not part of the KC Nation (catch a KC game when I can) I’ll have to concur. And it’s got to be more than not having CEH on the field. What is Bell not doing that is preventing the run game from getting any serious traction? Is it the play-calling? He’s old but he can still run routes when he has to. Must be a protection issue. Will Reid use the Chargers game to test out Williams as the lead back - and will it make any difference? Vs. Buffalo - I don’t see a problem because neither the run d nor secondary are formidable as recent years. The I line has been impressive this season, tho. Bills just beat up a deflated Patriots squad, let’s be honest. Super Bowl contenders? No (IMO). But I think there may be several average squads that manage to make it to late January play. So there’s hope!

Yep. Just wish the parents of some of these kids had more sense. People who run and profit from these school programs clearly don’t give a ****.

OccultHawk 01-02-2021 01:14 AM

I’ve loved college football my whole life but that fissured with Sandusky and how quickly it was forgotten in State College but the bull**** they ran this reason... after the pandemic I might be able to enjoy the NFL again but college has really lost me. Idk maybe just **** all of it. Moving the World Series. Moving the Rose Bowl. Fans at NFL games.

The NBA bubble might be forgivable but basketball has become almost unwatchable for other reasons. Time outs and fouls to be specific.

lulzzz

It’s too bad they always take that **** down off youtube

To add to the ridiculousness Mississippi State went 3-7 in conference

Finished LAST in SEC West and still got a bowl game lol

****ing joke

Mindfulness 01-03-2021 06:11 PM

8-8 ain't that bad, hope they still get a playoff game.

ando here 01-03-2021 06:33 PM

Didn’t see the Bears-Pack game today. Watching Eagles-Washington Team now. If Philly wins Giants can move on, though realistically, Bills are the New York team to beat.

Well, I hear this game was an officiating circus but (IMO) the right team got in if only for their impressive defensive play for most of the season.

SGR 01-04-2021 11:03 AM

Giants fans complaining about the Eagles throwing the game makes me laugh. Earn a playoff spot, and you won't have to rely on another team with nothing to play for to win the spot for you.

Giants fans definitely should have thought about winning more than six games during a season but also what in the f*ck was Doug Pedersen doing? Down by 3 from the 6 and you go for it on 4th down? Wtf? You take your QB out for Nate F*cking Sudfeld in the 4th down 3 points?

Bizarre.

Also the 14 teams format sucks basically making the already too long regular season closer to the meaninglessness of the NBA regular season. With this format approximately 40% of the teams make the playoffs.

I mean whatever but it sucks to see the NFL go down the same lame paths as the NBA. Constant stoppages. Boring predictable endings. Ridiculous rules favoring the offense making scoring points less meaningful.

OccultHawk 01-04-2021 07:26 PM

Plus six wildcard games? That’s stupid as ****. Wildcard weekend used to be great with two games Saturday and two games Sunday. Now they’ve tacked on an extra 6-8 hours of viewing time. **** that.

Yeah, but the matchups won't change.

All day football. No complaints here. Unless they're mostly terrible games, which, given these matchups, they shouldn't be.

OccultHawk 01-04-2021 09:33 PM

Idk

When I used to watch football I actually paid attention to the games not like milling around the apartment or doing chores and ****. That’s a 9 hour ask both Saturday and Sunday.

Who the **** really wants to watch that much football? I think they’re cheapening the product.

The Batlord 01-04-2021 09:57 PM

It's almost like watching football is a capitalist form of labor like using Facebook profiting off your sloth.

I like the option to watch a game or something else. And, half the time, I'm doing something else while watching, anyway. :)

And, well, the product is fairly flimsy, to begin with. And, let's face it, a beautifully run route or a Hopkins Hail Murray catch isn't art, it's mostly accident.

Glorified cock-fight for the rich. Spectacle for everybody else. And while fumblers aren't being fed to lions I bet ratings would skyrocket.
