Official NFL Playoffs Thread

[CletusPyle]

Thought I would create a thread on the NFL Discussion Forum where we can discuss the NFL playoffs before, during, and after each game.

So far.....

Texans 32
Chargers 12

Ravens 28
Steelers 14

Bills 31
Broncos 7

Eagles 22
Packers 10

None of these games so far have been classics, maybe this Tampa Bay Washington game will be competitive?

[CletusPyle]

This Tampa Bay / Washington game is pretty entertaining so far. Mayfield and Daniels are in a real QB duel!

10-10 at halftime

[CletusPyle]

Mike Evans is a beast! This is the best playoff game so far!

I appreciate that C & O...don't know if you are watching this game between the Commanders and the Bucs, but it is developing into a very good game!

Is it me, or does it sound like there are a lot of Commanders fans down there in southwestern Florida ???

I've been hearing some pretty loud cheers whenever the Washington team picks up a key 1st down.

I hear them too, they are a team of the future, they are going to be a force to deal with for the next decade!

Wow, that was definitely the best playoff game this weekend!

23-20 Washington eliminates the Bucs!

I thought that the Commanders made a mistake by waiting until there were only 2 seconds left to call their final time-out ...... if there was a bad snap, they would have been screwed.

If they had called time-out with 5 seconds left, that would have left them enough time to spike the ball had there been a bad snap. And if the snap was good, time still would have expired by the time the ball went through the uprights and the referees made their "good" signal.


But it worked out for them anyway, as the game-winning field goal was a successful bank-shot off of the right upright as time expired.

A chronology of the play ......



A) l Mahomes was running towards the sidelines to go out of bounds.


B) l Mahomes came to a complete stop JUST BEFORE going out of bounds ...... knowing that a Texans defender would push him in the back (which is legal, because Mahomes was still in bounds.)


C) l The Texans defender pushed Mahomes in the back, not particularly hard (although he was in his rights to push him as hard as he wanted to, because Mahomes was still in bounds and there was nothing stopping him from turning up-field to try to get more yardage.)


D) l After getting a not-so-hard shove in the back, Mahomes jumped forward, as though he were just hit by a Cadillac automobile.


E) l With the Kansas City crowd screaming for a penalty, the referees correctly swallowed their whistles and did not penalize the Texans defender.
