thekitchensink 01/23/22 10:06:44 PM #157 | I get the argument for OT rules of, "play defense". But I think there's also an argument, if we accept that in some situations going into OT, both defenses are helpless due to fatigue and both offenses are rolling, that the more entertaining thing is to see which offense fails first, instead of whether an exhausted defense can pull one out of their hat. In other words, with a lot of the rest of the league tilting toward offense, isn't it reasonable to also tilt OT towards highlighting offense? If you go into OT in a situation where both defenses will fail, then it really is the coin flip deciding it pretty much, instead of seeing which offense can't keep it up for as long as the other. --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 01/23/22 7:21:39 PM #50 | thanks Ash. well, it makes sense that it would be the NFC West to do it, now the only conference to do it in over a decade. west was clearly the most competitive in the conference this year, and almost all of the strength of the conference outside of Brady and Rodgers propping up teams as usual. its also been that division recently that when they play an afc team, I'm usually judging the game for, how good is the afc really this year? should be a fun game! --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 01/23/22 6:26:05 PM #25 | The fumble on the 1, the snap over the head, the missed fg, the last akers fumble, at the least. And that's not counting the Kupp fumble or various other insanity. Somehow, the Rams still win. Fitting that Kupp should still be the hero! --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 01/22/22 7:38:40 PM #181 | well. I guess it's hard to blame anyone specific other than tannehill. I do think the game really hinged on that 3rd and 4th down they stopped us on. two not great play calls there and the momentum from converting that could have been enough for a victory. neonreaper posted... Feel like the Titans play calling was really poor tbh Yeah I was talking to some friends about this... Derrick Henry looked just a tad indecisive, seeking contact just a little less than usual. Hard to blame for that given the return from injury, but Foreman did look better. But it's an incredibly hard call... imagine the media and the fans if they go with Foreman and it doesn't work out. Foreman would basically have to leave no doubt literally every time he touched the ball. Tough situation. --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 01/18/22 12:11:13 AM #109 | Titans were 5-1 at that point last year, had just lost the battle of 5-0 teams trying to stay undefeated against Pittsburgh, and coming off a three game home stretch to go away to the Bengals, who were 1-5-1 and had zero pressure on them. Now, I don't think Burrow is affected by pressure like a normal human, but there's no doubt this is a much different environment and context than last year's game. --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 01/17/22 11:57:53 PM #106 | Bengals not really known for their run defense. And Titans, other than Byard, haven't had a lockdown secondary for years. Who can shore it up more for the playoffs? --- - TKS - The Witness |
Topic | NFL Discussion Topic - Wildcard Weekend Part 2 |
thekitchensink 01/17/22 11:54:57 PM #105 | Burrow came in and lit up the Titans last year. But last year that game was kind of a trap game. This time the Titans should be ready to hit em in the mouth... The scary thing, as usual with the Titans, is an early mistake or too many out of rhythm 3-and-outs for our offense that let Joey B get hot, possess the ball and build a lead. Titans typically not coming from behind and even less so against Burrow on (at that point) a 4 game heater from week 16. But if they can come out and stifle Burrow's streak and play the usual ball control with Henry, tennessee becomes the usual #1 seed favorite. so I think we'll know what we're in for early. --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 01/15/22 8:00:48 PM #156 | See, that last play was what the vikings defense should have done when they lost on the last play to the lions. Y'know, instead of playing 5 yards deep in the end zone. --- - TKS - The Witness |
Topic | NFL Discussion Topic - Wildcard Weekend |
thekitchensink 01/15/22 4:54:08 PM #86 | And now, to catch myself up on the thread: I came in ready to say that the Flores firing was completely insane. I still pretty much think it is. That team had no business having more than about 5 wins both this year and last year, and if the owner expected playoffs this year after the overachievement last year, then man, that's gotta be bottom of the list to work for. Way to turn a positive into a negative. With that said, what KCF said about coaching staff is the first I'm hearing about that, and if indeed Flores feels a specific affinity toward Watson that drove a wedge between him and Tua and/or nudged Flores himself toward wanting out in general, I get it a little more. But still, Dolphins just let one get away. Arguably the only of Belichick's coaching disciples to have success and even beat his mentor (three times in a row). I really hope he doesn't go to Houston, both for him as a person/coach and as a Titans fan, even though that now seems likely. In Houston he will either fail like all the rest or actually rebuild their team effectively, and the former sucks for him while the latter sucks for the Titans. Texans are too much fun for me to root against as a trash heap and I don't want him at the head of it. Would much rather see Flores go try to rebuild Chicago or the Giants as a defense-centric scheme! I think he could find sneaky success in those places... Okay, Flores diatribe over. Btw, I agree that Culley was set up to fail. Oh, and count me in the camp that believes that Burrow will help the Bengals transcend the Bungles! --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 01/15/22 4:39:40 PM #85 | First of all, some thoughts on this weekend's games: LV @ CIN - Bisaccia vs. Taylor, somebody has to get their first playoff win as a coach. Pats @ Bills - feels like -5 on the field?! Eagles @ Bucs - might be more about Bucs D than Tom, but the D is also missing some pieces SF @ DAL - I will just be enjoying how much each fanbase thinks is at stake with this game PIT @ KC - please, Big Ben, bow out with some dignity, Chiefs are way more fun to watch Cards @ Rams - man, NFL is brutal. these two teams are so completely all in for this year with player age and contracts and one of them has to get eliminated by the other in the first round, lol --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 01/15/22 4:21:56 PM #19 | welp. just thought far more about all these games in the past 2 hours than I was ever planning to earlier in the week. here I was thinking I had the week off from predictions after a long season. Was hiding the Bucs really necessary? It's not like anyone in the universe is picking the Eagles or Steelers~ I actually do think the Eagles can win that game... the pieces are there for the players to put it together at least. Slay cancels out Evans, D Line is proud enough to maybe get to Brady, and weather might favor the Eagles run...? now, did I pick against Brady? I'll give you one guess --- - TKS - The Witness |

thekitchensink 12/09/21 5:56:31 PM #17 | quick clarification on level 7 that I don't recall - the wording seems to indicate that even for the 4 total touchdowns requirement, the touchdowns must align with the chosen position. can you confirm that? for some reason I remembered just needing any 4 total touchdowns, but the wording makes me think I'm misremembering. so for instance, if I pick Mahomes, Chubb and Deebo, and this happens: Mahomes - 1 Pass td Chubb - 1 rush td Deebo - 1 receiving and 1 rush td that would not pass the level. am I reading that wording right? --- - TKS - The Witness |
