I have the impression the Bills do not coach this as vigorously as they could

My impression is that the Rams have figured out how to generate or simulate enough pressure to make Goff inaccurate. He’s throwing at guys who are open, but over their head (my impression)

That’s what Collinsworth saw too and didn’t think he should say

Nice nice punt with almost a disaster for the Rams on the end of it. Lions need to get a stop and flip the field to have a chance I think.

Detroit needs a solid drive

I really want to see Goff succeed in this game but I find it hard while watching this to believe he’s got the goods. I really want the Lions to beat the Rams but their defense is getting perforated.

Well, if the Lions allow the Rams to run like that, they’re gonna get butted into a loss

But TV market doesn’t depend on states, it depends on people. The point I was trying to make is that a lot of KC’s market isn’t in the Midwest states, a lot of which don’t have high populations. Since they’re winning, a lot f audience around the country outside “flyover country” wants to see the Chiefs.

That’s ok, neither do the refs Would be nicely symmetrical if Wentz, having had his Championship season rescued by Nick Foles, would come in and rescue the Rams. Not sure he has it in him.

?? I don’t think KC getting premier TV slots has to do with having “all of the Midwest” (which I’m not sure is true anyway - bit to the S it’s Cowboys, bit to the NE would prefer Bears, bit to the N it’s Vikes. KC is “prime time” because teams tend to pick up fans when they win championships and have an admired star player. The Patriots picked up fans all over when they were winning Superbowls with Tom Brady and he was the league’s darling. Pat Mahomes has assumed that mantle with 3 Super Bowl appearances and 2 rings, all the ads and attention. Very popular. We may not like it, but it “is what it is” until attention turns elsewhere

Interesting how many players I kind of wanted the Bills to draft, that have wound up on the Lions and are doing well

Please

I don’t know how she came up with this number, but the Gov. was saying they only anticipated 17,000 attendees for the game tomorrow 🥲

Worked pretty well for Mahomes too. Just sayin’. Course it works best if you have a pretty solid team that is used to winning around him.

‘ Cuz he’s coaching a team with 9 all-pro players that just gave up 48 points to a QB playing in his first season/playoff game? I got nothin’ for ya

Did the announcers just say that the Cowboys have 9 All Bowl players and the GB packers have one (their kick returner)??

Out here by the field The wind won’t yield I put my back into my shoveling Hochul won’t fight To prove what’s right Driving through Ban won’t be forgiven [by Mother Nature, she’s undefeated] Highmark Wasteland It’s Lake Effect Snow Wasteland https://twitter.com/NYSWRCC/status/1746642504034693221 This woulda been a total CF if they tried to play I think

Yeah, that was “wait, WAT?”

I think it's possible Daboll was highly successful in coaching Josh because McDermott put a "governor" or limits on the time and place of his hard coaching. He did this by sending Daboll upstairs to the coach's booth and (I think) telling him he better be focused on getting the next play in on time, not screaming in Josh's ear about the last one. The team watches film and does "corrections" on Monday, and intense, passionate correction can be delivered then or in private.

I think that's a pretty typical pattern for lake effect snow, isn't it? Couple inches in N Amherst, Tonawanda, and Niagara County which are shielded from the lake Good snowstorm somewhere between Downtown Buffalo and Angola, but nothing too outrageous Some limited belt within that area gets HAMMERED and winds up with 3 foot drifts Some ####### is undoubtedly and inevitably going to stand in the northern part of the city and blog on the internet about how the travel ban and the snowstorm are "fake news" when it's pretty clear they're out of the Lake Effect area.

And finally for those who see a problem with McDermott in the assistant turnover he's had over his 7 year tenure as HC, there's this: https://www.bigblueview.com/2024/1/9/24031619/giants-coaching-staff-mess-is-brian-dabolls-to-clean-up-and-he-better I thought it was actually genius, and a good sign, that Daboll hired both an OC and a DC he had no known previous working relationships with. Bring in new blood and fresh ideas. But maybe there were other reasons. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

If the outcome of a football game is impacted by fan posts on a message board, the problem with the team and the game probably run much deeper than a bit of gloating.

A lot of that was the cold today. The ball is larger and very hard. Difficult to catch.
