AFC Wild Card games thread

Love how everybody keeps making a big deal about playing in the rain during the Cincy vs Pittsburgh game.

The irony being: No one in the national media knows or even remembers-if they did know- that Newton played in about 3-4 monsoons earlier this season-when discussing his passing stats, and the negative effect those games had on them (along with receiver drops, and slowing down the offense with big leads) .

Apparently, Cam gets no mulligans from certain members in the media?

Why are people talking about Seattle? Haven't even beat the Vikings yet; even the media is overlooking Minnesota. Stop with that bs until they actually win pls.

 

I'm with ya,   I'm thinking "Any given Sunday",   but I can understand why so many are overlooking the Vikings.   Bridgewater has 17 total TDs in 16 games.    He seems to really strain when he tosses the ball down the field and even his shorter passes don't seem to have a lot of zip on them.   It's easy to write him off against the Seahawks defense.   If the Seahawks just have to pull everyone closer to the line,  and stop AP,  while also stopping those little dinks and dunks..   I don't see how the Vikings win.    I'm of the belief of "Any Given Sunday",  but I can't picture it in my head,  the Vikings winning.

    • Regarding BYs depth of target... Week 1 Week 2  
    • His physical attributes aren't going to change on a new team so I have no idea how he would pan out elsewhere but I can logically assume those issues he has had with processing which was supposed to be his key selling point before the draft would follow him. He was also supposed to be someone who thrives when the play breaks down but he has been inconsistent at best on that and at times horrific. I think where we each take a fork in the road on the determination of Bryce Young currently is you seem to still be treating him as a rookie and not a third year QB still repeating the same mistakes while showing that he has no arm talent to overcome even the slightest bit of adversity. I've said all along his rookie year and his sophomore season that I would be willing to overlook his interceptions if he was pushing the ball downfield consistently and even if he turned the ball over forcing a pass here and there to keep defenses honest I would accept it. But he has nothing. There is no deep passing game here. He threw the ball 55 times in Arizona which was 30 more times than Kyler Murray and only had a little over 100 more passing yards than him. Legitimately you should read that again and ponder it. That is embarrassingly atrocious. Circumstances here are not ideal with the WR's and OL but we cannot normalize this. It is horrendous. And we need to swallow our pride and begin scouting QB's for the 2026 draft. In the meantime this cannot continue on much longer for the sake of the locker room. And the upcoming schedule isn't going to get any better. If there is a silver lining to any of this we are going to find out just who Dave Canales really is throughout the rest of the season. He isn't getting a pass either.
    • I don't hate it but.....  eeeh it would take acquiring Kaprizov without giving up svech to make rod try Jarvis at 2C. Svechnikov/Aho/Kaprizov  Ehlers/Jarvis/Stankoven
