The 2022 Playoffs

[Pape]

It's new but it doesn't necessarily create a shorter week than other teams will have, which was the problem you mentioned

the way the teams split up the week? it could. it might not, it probably wont. but it might...

but eh... this aint a hill im dying on... it doesn't affect our post-season golf plans, so screw 'em

 

[Hyped]

Hoping Lamar and Tua suit up….

Dem Boys are favored over Brady and the Bucs in Tampa? Imagine being coached by someone worse than McCarthy.

Jensen has been practicing. Even at 75%, he’d go a long, long way toward helping that offense.

I am not counting the Bucs out to go all the freaking way for Brady's 8th ring. I think they'll win big on MNF and the rest of the league will be thinking uh oh not again!

When you have Todd Bowles leading the charge, your ceiling isn't very high.

That bucs team is poorly coached and flawed. They have a 2009 Patriots postseason vibe to them.

Maybe. New season though. If Jensen can play that will go a long way toward fixing the issues up front and with the run game.

I knew Eagles had a soft schedule but didn't realize 49ers was even easier. There may be some surprises this weekend.

 

[Triumph]

Brady takes out Dem Cowboys and a scotch fueled Jerry Jones fires Mcarthy in the locker room.

Sean Payton is as good as gold to be Jerrys next HC hire.

At some point, Cinderella Purdy will turn into a pumpkin.

NFL would love for Buffalo to win the SB, if I were a betting man that’s where my money would go.

He's been pretty good. The offense that SF runs makes it extremely easy for a skillset like Purdy's
Playoffs are a different animal though let's see how he does.

They do, but you can only get away with scheming around weaknesses for so long (generally speaking). The playoffs will usually expose them. If I’m San Fran, I’m hoping to avoid going to Philly at some point. That’s the defense that would expose them with Purdy.

Path to NFCCG is reasonable.
Seattle doesn't deserve to be in the playoffs
Then Kirk Cousins? They should win.
Then it gets tough.
Let's hope he plays with a lead in Philly.

Very, but they need to hope someone knocks off Philly before them. They’re loaded in their front seven and could present a headache against San Fran’s ground game. They also have the horses in their secondary to lock down the 49ers receivers in man or zone. Every other match-up in the NFC is favorable for them.

sounds like Hurt is still playing hurt

Eagles' Nick Sirianni admits Jalen Hurts was 'hurting bad' in return, QB won't 'get into' injury status

Hurts said he felt 'good enough' but his coach knows it wasn't easy

Also they are dealing with injuries to Lane Johnson and Avante Maddox, who may not make the Divisional Round.

But yes, the Eagles are tough when healthy and if they can return to playing like they did earlier this year. They barely squeaked by the NYG backups last week.

 

[TheRainMaker]

The new playoff format is awful. Way too many games.

 

[TheRainMaker]

Anybody else notice Philly had 70 sacks on the season? In fact, 4 players had more than 10 sacks. That has to be a record.

It is, I believe. Even if Hurts isn’t 100%, that defense will be tough to deal with.
