It was with under 40 seconds to go. If they had made the stop they would have just run it out I’m sure.

Disagree. The Rams/9ers was traditionally entertaining. This game was batshit crazy for the whole last hour where about 90% of fans were rooting for a tie.

I heard on the radio this morning that no one has ever sent a text about a Bengals playoff victory.

That’s how long it’s been.

And the Raiders have a chance to keep it that way. Is this why the Chargers were so afraid of a tie?

When my son was about 4, he saw a Bengals blow up like this at a nearby store and convinced my wife to buy it. I think it cost $20.99 (reduced from $49.99 or something, because basically nobody in NJ is a Bengals fan.) Anyway this thing used to go on the front lawn around Halloween. I couldn't name one player on the Bengals at the time but everyone in the neighborhood thought we were Bengals fans.

That’s breathtaking.

**BmillsSkier** · 01-10-2022, 09:23 AM

That's hilarious.

Falsely accused of being a Bengals fan by association.

Dolphins fire Flores? What the hell are they thinking? Did he strongly oppose a trade for Watson? Makes no sense.

yeah, that one is a head scratcher. Back to back winning seasons with that roster and they fire him?

**Supermoon** · 01-10-2022, 09:36 AM

Yeah. Makes no sense.

Love the stuff about Brady wanting to stay in during garbage time to help gronk get his incentive payouts

**BmillsSkier** · 01-10-2022, 09:45 AM

Imagine what a guy like that could have done for Antonio Brown.

Yes, that was pretty cool. I called that out as it happened. I wish Gronk played for a team I actually like! Brady has also impressed me as a solid human more lately.. Brown is beyond help.. CTE ain't no joke.

I'm pretty sure Brady made sure AB hit his bonuses last year and probably would have again this year if AB didn't blow everything up (fake vax card suspension didn't help him either).

Sounds like some personality issues with the GM.

It was a joke at AB's expense.

Still so confused how the Stillers are in the Playoffs this morning.

Can't joke about Brady, Belichick, or the Patriots with NE fans. They're a very touchy group and haven't learned how to handle jokes about their team or adversity like us.

Agreed. Those jokes definitely fall flat on them..

To be fair I've seen a fair amount of social media dragging Brady about the topic today. I only have myself to blame for getting sucked into brain dead commentary.
I should probably unplug for a bit...

**Timberridge** · 01-10-2022, 11:59 AM

Understood. You have to let go, MJ10 is your future now.

We both need to focus on this weekend.

Timely piece...

Anyone else other than me not know that Musburger is the radio guy for the Raiders? His "JACKPOT!" call when they won the game was admittedly pretty good. I'm sure he does that after every win, but it was new to me when they played the clip this morning.

Also, in the same clip they did the bit about remembering John Madden, and I noticed that in the prepared remarks, they thanked/remembered Al Davis before the guy they were supposedly remembering Madden himself. Didn't Davis die like 10 years ago?
