I thought the same thing while watching that game. I lost track of how many times Collinsworth said that Mayfield was ineffective when the routes took more than 2 seconds to complete.

Watched the game with my Pats* bride and actually thought they were going to lose the game. The play calling was absolutely inexcusable. The boys should have been up by at least 21 at the end of the first half and buried the Bengals early in the 3rd quarter. Having to hold on for a last minute victory is very concerning. @ Dan - well said my friend. Time to move on to the Pats*

they just showed "wide right" on the NFL Network pregame show

2 cups of strong black coffee (grind my own beans), then a hike with the dogs. Now thinking about the cold beverages sitting in my fridge. Will probably crack the first in about 15 minutes then head out to our local bar around noon to watch the game. Somewhat wary about this game as both of my college kids' teams lost yesterday (University of Colorado and 'Cuse), which has not been a favorable indicator of a Bills victory in the past.

Is that Jimmy Spags?

DeVito is a better quarterback.

Raised in OP, now live outside Hartford, CT. Prime Pats*** and "G-Men" territory. Nobody cares about the other NJ team.

Against the Titans in the playoffs two years ago. Was watching the game with a die-hard Chiefs fan who was apoplectic because he knew it was going to happen.

In addition, Bruce had to line up against probably the best RT/LT in the game for most of his career - Bruce Armstrong. His sack numbers would have been higher if this were not the case.

Amen brother!!

RIP Bart. I didn't see the Packers/Cowboys championship games but enjoyed watching the Steve Sabol narrated films as a kid in the 70's. I recall Starr scored the winning TD on a QB sneak after someone (Jerry Kramer?) blocked "massive Jethro Pugh", allowing Starr to score.

My HS buddies and I made many a space helmet.?

My son attends the University of Colorado and Ralphie is a beloved beast out there. They have 5 or 6 big dudes that each have a chain or rope attached to a harness and they run with him/her (current version is female) around the field. It is quite a sight and the crowd goes nuts. Ralphie spends spends most of his/her time at a luxurious, secret farm since he was kidnapped in the past by Colorado State students and spray painted green (team colors of C. State).

Beane taking his time...

Nice Virgil! Appreciate you carrying the torch for the "post game thoughts" threads while Bill from NYC was absent.

Man, I could watch that 100 times - it still brings chills.

best of luck to your niece and family.

Moved to OP in 1975 when I was 9. If the conditions were right, I could hear the announcer at Rich Stadium on Sundays even though we lived several miles away.

Brady handled it well, but it sucked for everyone and was hard to watch. Then this little 4 foot 10inch lady finally gets a second to ask her question, and instead of sticking the mic in his face and saying "Hows it feel Tom?" and then shutting her mouth, she launches into this 40 second question about some crap and history and being vindicated. He ignored it because it was stupid and he probably couldn't here it anyway, and went on with the exact thing he would have said if he just handed him the mic. To make matters worse, she screamed the entire time,

This same argument was brought up repeatedly during the Bills' dominance of the AFC in the early '90s. I don't think it was relevant then or now.

^ this. He was the key to that offense.

A Wade-coached defense almost knocked the Bills out of the 1991 playoffs - when the Bills were running the K-gun and were an offensive juggernaut. The final score was a 10-7 Bills victory, but the Broncos defense sure made them earn it.

Indeed. The Patriots* offensive linemen were content to push Bosa and Ingraham wide on every pass play with the result being the cleanest pocket Brady has seen in awhile.

You beat me to it ?

Straight up: Saints Cowboys Pats* Chiefs
