Official Wild Card Weekend Thread

[IndyNorm]

Surprised there hasn't been a thread started for this weekend's WC games. Guess we're all too busy arguing over Ballard :D.

Needless to say both of yesterday's games were great, and more importantly I finally hit on a bet as I took CAR+10 and CHI+2 in a parlay :D. Although TBH I was hoping LAR would destroy CAR to add fuel to the fire for the NFL to change their playoff seeding.

Also, here are my thoughts on today's games:

BUF @ Jagoffs - Heart says Bills, but I think the Jagoffs win this one. The Bills have way underachieved this year and were none to impressive down the stretch.

SF @ PHI - A little tougher for me. I think the Iggles win, but I took the 49ers at +6.

LAC @ Cheats - Really hate to say it, but the Cheats look to be back. Heart hopes they're an aberation based on a super weak schedule, which is possible. But I think the Cheats win tonight.

Bills just took the lead. I wonder if Lawrence reverts to average Trevor as the game gets later in time.

Interesting finish to the first half.

Yeah, think the refs gave the Jagoffs a break, but all for not.

Should be an interesting 2nd half. So far Josh Allen being banged up doesn't seem to be hurting his play, but we'll see if that catches up w/ him.

Also, we'll see if the pressure starts getting to Lawrence like you were suggesting. If the Bills take the drive for a TD that might do it.

They are moving it well, but they need 7

Only managed 3. We'll see how the Jagoffs respond.

interesting game for fans who just like football.

Tush push for an 11 yard TD. Did not have that on my Bingo card

Surprised Buf did not go for 2 there

Trevor does Trevor stuff to lose the game.

Eh. With the new kickoff rules you kinda have to make the assumption that the other team will be able to get into FG range with that much time left.

Bittersweet result for me. Happy to see the Jagoffs lose, but I lost my bet :cool:.

Bit risky on 1st down and with that much time left on the game, but gotta give the Bill DB credit there. Great defensive play.

Also, great job by the Bills ST on the kickoff to keep them at the ~20.

SH/Philly is a good one. Coming down to a final possession. Both teams missed XP

Chargers with a short field on a pick

Yeah that game was great too. Crazy how many good games this WC weekend has had since it's usually a mixed bag. Really bad break on Kittle though (torn Achilles) :cool:

Of course the didn't.

I haven't watched too much, but I did get to see the play where the Cheats DT sacked Herbert by smacking him right in the helmet with no flag from the refs. Guess some things never change :confused:
