    I really, really wish Dak was good at throwing the football.

    Like, it's a real shame.

    Did you see that throw he just made on the move?

    He makes those sometimes.

    He misses routine easy throws at least 5 times a game

    Prescott hasn't learned/mastered touch throws.

    what on earth are the rams doing with these 4th down plays. even if you get the offsides you get a foot and still have 4th and goal.

    Why didn't the Saints play today? You would think the #1 seeds would play on saturday giving them an extra day of rest for the championship game.

    One #1 seed plays today, one #1 seed plays tomorrow. That's how it's been since Yale introduced the forward pass.

    I guess I've never really thought about it until today. Recovery times and looking ahead are a thing. Seems like playing and winnning on saturday is advantageous compared to Sunday.

    your opponent gets one less day of rest from the wild card though, which is an advantage for winning in the divisional.

    That's another thing that's always bothered me. Divisional. The name comes from before wildcards much like baseball, but sense it's now a meaningless name, couldn't they come up with something cool? Thunder bowl weekend!

    Indy and Dallas both went Saturday to Saturday from wild card to divisional.

    The teams that played on Saturday will get an extra day before the conference championships, that's it. Not sure why they don't split it AFC/NFC between Saturday and Sunday, but I'm guessing it's TV related.

    Honestly Rivers’s schtick has held up over a long career and is now endearing. He’s America’s QB.

    Agreed. Hell, the only reason I was rooting for the Chiefs yesterday, was because if the Chargers "Charger", that'd mean the Pats got another home game.

    Yes, my hatred is irrational. Don't care. Sports fandom in general is irrational.

    I was pulling for KC in hopes we might have new teams in the Superb Owl. Though I admit I'm pulling for the Saints; Brees is the man.

    Yeah that’s the joke

    Also in researching said bad joke I discovered that KC is the original “Texans”- they started as the Dallas Texans and moved to KC when Lamar Hunt realized that the Cowboys were better for Dallas and the AFL would be better with a new market

    They haven’t won yet.

    I mean, statistically it’s pretty likely at the moment.

    But there’s a reason why they play 60 minutes (or more).

    Lord, I dislike the Patriots so much. I lived in Boston for four years and they are just insufferable fans.

    But, their division is just horseshit. Just give the Patriots a week 19 annual bye week so we don't have to watch this shit.

    Yeah, but the Patriots have one of the best half-time adjustments coaches ever, and the Chargers are essentially the AFC Bengals in regards to playing relatively consistently just above average, but never being truly good when it matters.

    I mean, I expected the Chargers to lose, but I at least expected them to make shit interesting first, before blowing it in the fourth quarter.

    Chargers just had the ball for 32 seconds to start the fourth quarter before punting.

    Whatever the definition of 'football move' includes it clearly isn't 'run five yards with possession of the ball'.

    I have a question. I remember when I was a kid in the 80''s they would throw flags for crowd noise at times. I was just thinking about that because the new Orleans crowd got pretty loud there. Now stadiums are designed for crowd noise. Is it still a rule?
