NFL GAME DAY DISCUSSION 2023 NFL Divisional Round Sunday Games - BUF vs CIN

[Foxypats]

Cincy can win if and it's a big if that the ref's don't interfere and let them play. If they get called for everything and Bills get called for nothing, good luck to them., they will need it !

The refs need to swallow their whistles and keep the flags in their pockets unless it’s absolutely egregious. It’s playoff football. Cannot have a situation like yesterday where Arden Key gets flagged for RTP and, the next series, the Queefs do the exact same thing to Lawrence and there’s no flag.

This game is a total toss-up for me, although I lean towards Buffalo. The Cincy OL is decimated. Buffalo should be able to pressure Burrow enough to stall their offense. The bias in me also does NOT want to see the decimated Cincy OL, trotting out practice squad guys to protect burrow @ Kansas City for the AFCCG.

I think the Bills are highly unlikely to repeat their turnover ridden game which is the only reason Miami had a chance last week. Then go on to play KC on neutral field @ Atlanta and end this obnoxious Mahomes Superman narrative being pushed heavily. I also think the Bills could get Hyde back next week.

I am rooting for Cincy, no way can I root for the Bills. If Cincy looses I am rooting NFC at the SB. No to the Bills and the Chiefs !!

Adam Schefter reports that Mahomes is "battling for his life and is in excruciating physical pain exacerbated by heroic exertion in the face of unparalleled adversity." Schefter is currently in talks with John Williams to create dramatic trailer-like music which will play during all Mahomes references going forward.

Thought that was Pork for a second.

In a shocking twist, he looks like Giga Chad.

Hans Zimmer would be more appropriate. What a gutsy performance yesterday.

Jax @ Kc was not a bad one...

Jax could have won that!! A lot of missed opportunities …that stings going into off-season for them! Lawrence is going to get better and better….should b interesting

I’ve heard Hans Zimmer is the backup plan if Williams is booked

EDIT: above lmao

What would you guys think if Buffalo chokes again?

Caldwell should (rightfully) face questions about his job security. Jax was popping Mahomes left and right in the first half. Then he becomes a wounded animal back there and… you back off and play coverage? Da fuq?

That they're a damn good football team, but it's really hard to win a Super Bowl (unless it's something like fumbling a snap in the endzone again, or something ridiculous where they flat out throw away the game.)

“LOL.”

I agree with you …..some of the games (last game of our season) and KC/Jax game yesterday ….had a WWF feel to it…..like this has already been planned out and this is the team that the NFL wants to win to stick to plan……now I am Not a ref basher normally (there are games where they have certainly hit us and let the other team get away with the same thing sure) …..but the calls were definitely going one teams way!!!….

I’d say it’s more likely that one of the refs paid their third cousin, Jimmy, a fee to submit a few bets on his or her behalf with DraftKings or Bet MGM.

I'd like to take this opportunity to tell my Twitter audience that human life is more important than a football game. Please, don't call me a hero or enlightened or whatever...I'm just a decent guy who wants to let everyone know that I value a person's life over football. Most people would not be brave enough to make a statement like this, as it's controversial, but in the end, I need to stand up for humanity over evil. If you stop following me, I understand, but I'm just saying what I think - in my heart - is the right thing. Thank you.

Edit: Thank you to everyone who DM'd me to let me know they support my sentiments about Damar Hamlin. It was difficult to go against the grain and stand up for human life over a football game, but that's just the way I was raised. Unfortunately it seems the overwhelming majority of people are supporting a football game over the life of a young man, but my parents instilled values in me; you can blame them if you're angry, but I'll say it again: the life of a human being is more important than playing a football game. I'm changing my name, address, and contact information in fear of retaliation.

Could not agree more ….Hamlin recovery shows to non believers that God is Real!!!! I am so happy that he has recovered so amazingly well!!! Not sure if he plays again…..but he should be able to resume a normal life again!!!
With that having been said, I think that Cincy would have won that game there had it continued or even resumed the next day …..Cincy looked really strong and that point…..now they have had key injuries which may limit them in todays game

I’m pulling for Cincy still!!!!
