Dynasty Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I'd argue that injuries and the absence of Gronk impacted New England, but a win against them is always a delight. Miami's playoffs hope are still alive but I think they already dug themselves too deep. They'd have to win out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockstar Matt Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 All I know is that the Dolphins should be wearing those uniforms (with an updated logo) full time. Absolutely gorgeous.

If they sign Cousins or another good QB, they could be a real force. Elite RB, top-tier defense, decent weapons. Watch out for them next season. This is where I recall to our remembrance that the 2000 Baltimore Ravens won the Super Bowl with Trent Dilfer at quarterback...and nary a trace of offense outside of Shannon Sharpe. Just saying...this is why they play the games. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady’s lost two Super Bowls. Who did he lose to? The Giants. Has Trent Dilfer ever lost a Super Bowl? And who did he beat when he won? The Giants. Trent Dilfer is the GOAT. Don’t @ me.

BBTV Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 So apparently even with Wentz out and Foles in, some "odds consultant" (whatever that means) has the Eagles (if at home) favored against every NFC playoff team except Minnesota (pickem), and in the SB, favored against every team but the Steelers and Patriots (the latter of whom they likely would have been the dogs against even with Wentz.) I'm not sure how this translates into Vegas odds, but very surprisingly, Eagles (*sigh*) "Nation" has been taking it pretty well. https://www.crossingbroad.com/2017/12/odds-makers-like-the-eagles-in-the-playoffs-even-without-carson-wentz.html vs. Vikings (pk) vs. Falcons (+1) vs. Rams (+2) vs. Saints (+2) vs. Panthers (+2.5) vs. Seahawks (+3) vs. Jaguars (+1) vs. Chiefs (+1) vs. Steelers (-3) vs. Patriots (-6.5) "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

~Bear Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Talk about a wave of emotions. Even though the Steelers outplayed the Patriots, Ben had to get greedy with the fake-spike. Heartbreaking ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzyman314 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Hell of an ending to that Patriots-Steelers game. Damn. Got a bit of Deja vu for some reason. People are going to talk about that "touchdown" called back (which was the right call btw), when Steelers should be blamed for going for a TD with 10 seconds left and no Timeouts, when they could have forced OT with a Field Goal. Also going to have to say, neither team was really "outplayed". Both Ben & Brady had similar stats in this game. Defense was the deciding factor.

Lights Out Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Can we all admit that the Patriots are the real reason the NFL's ratings are dropping? Everyone outside of New England is tired of games and championships constantly being gifted to the least deserving franchise/fanbase in sports.

That doesn't even remotely make sense; why would the Steelers want to potentially put the game back into Brady's hands when they had a chance to ice it themselves With 10 seconds & 0 TImeouts left. Spike + FG was the safest option. Red Sox: 8 Celtics: 17 Bruins: 6 Patriots: 5 Phantom Merch Collector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashcarson15 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Just throw a back-corner fade there. If you hit on it, great; if he’s covered, chuck it out of the back corner and make your field goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Well then...I eagerly await @Still MIGHTY and his fellow Rams fans to deliver a pretty righteous smack down on me. In fact, it got so bad that I went ahead and played on PS4 instead of watching the game... it was that bad. I don't think I can remember a time where Seattle got smacked around like this at CenturyLink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and other Patriots homers (don't even argue, you're lying to yourself) should be lucky Brown was injured and that the "catch" rule sucks. You'd be whining out your ass if lost on a similar call. Good game I guess. Gronkowski is a little punk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throwing a slant across the field where the Patriots have 5 defenders was a bigger reason they ended up losing. You kick the field goal and prolong the game. Who knows what could have happened in overtime? In other news, Antonio Brown has been diagnosed with a partially torn calf muscle. Hopefully he's back for the playoffs (which right now is what the Steelers are aiming for). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
