AFC Wild Card games thread

Ah yes the SF game, the game where I lost my mind for about an hour. Remember it well.

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?

If Marvin Lewis loses another playoff game, do you fire him, I mean Dalton hasn't won one either....

You can't blame him for shitty QBing.

These games just make me appreciate Cam even more. He should get two MVP awards this season.

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.

Bengals defense may be too banged up now.

That was the lightest push I've seen to get a flag for .. Lol ... The new NFL

They're trying to keep control of the game, which I agree with. There is no love lost between the Bengals and Steelers.

[PandaPancake]

Seemed like a legal hit to me. 

[pantherj]

Rey catches like the Frankenstein monster.

[Mr. Scot]

Big missed opportunity on the dropped pick.

[Pox 08]

I don't notice the difference between the Bengals back-up Qb and Dalton.

Missed INT by Cincy.

Those were the type o f throws Big Ben was making in Seattle earlier this season with a 2TD lead; except they were caught; so the Steelers lost.
