Travis Kelce uncertain of future. Mulling retirement
Brand J replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
Listening to that, I’d be surprised if he returned. That doesn’t sound like a player who’s looking forward to next year. -
I agree with you, but just saw it broke Michael Jackson’s record for most watched halftime performance of all time. Kendrick Lamar? Unreal.
-
Think I heard Jay Z/Roc Nation has put together the last few halftime shows, which is why they’ve all been hip hop. I’ve never liked Kendrick Lamar’s nasally voice so I didn’t tune in for longer than a minute. Have no idea what Samuel L Jackson was doing out there but also don’t care enough to find out why.

If you guys recall, going into the conference championship games the most popular SB matchups - from best to least - were: Bills vs Commanders Bills vs Eagles Chiefs vs Commanders Chiefs vs Eagles There was then talk about boycotting the SB over questionable officiating and many others said they simply weren’t interested enough to watch. Well, the ratings are out, and the NFL has set yet another record: https://apnews.com/article/super-bowl-ratings-fox-nielsen-eagles-chiefs-e0c22b0e956e16637870110140933cea Guess more needed to boycott.

Just wrote this in another thread:

Looking at Sweat’s career stats versus Rousseau, they’re basically clones of each other. If Sweat is valued at $18M/yr, while Rousseau is valued at $25M/yr, I think it’s obvious who our Robin should be on the DL while we go get Batman.

Never once did I say “we beat this team therefore we’d beat this other team.” I said the Ravens were playing the best football of anyone and were everyone’s most feared opponent, yet we were 2 yards from going up on them 31-19 and had another potential scoring drive stopped where Kincaid dropped the ball. The argument was that you can’t say because the Eagles smacked the Chiefs that they’d smack the Bills, just like you couldn’t say the Bills would’ve smacked the Eagles had the Chiefs blown out the birds. Keep up.

I understand the cope, it’s trying to find a silver lining in not making the SB. “We wouldn’t have won this game anyway, it would’ve been our 5th SB loss.” That statement is no more valid than “we would’ve smoked the Eagles too” had KC came out and dominated the birds. Styles make fights, emotion, momentum, hunger, it all goes into it. No one knows what would’ve happened in a Bills v Eagles SB, even against this same fiery Eagles team tonight.
-
Yeah, Chiefs just looked listless from the opening snap, definitely not the same effort they put forth against the Bills. As to whether the Bills would’ve lost a close game 60% of the time against these Eagles, it would’ve been fun to find out. The Bills, like the Chiefs, were (-1.5) favorites against Philly in the look ahead odds. Eagles played their best game of the season, even better than the beatdown they gave the Commanders in the NFCCG. Chiefs played their worst.
-
I think it’s a coping mechanism for some since the Bills weren’t in the game. They’ve convinced themselves we wouldn’t have had a chance - like we didn’t have a chance against the Ravens, everyone’s most feared opponent. Go back and watch the first half of that Ravens game, some of you forget how great the Bills can be when they’re clicking on all cylinders. They weren’t clicking like that against the Chiefs; different Sunday, different opponent, different location. The Eagles blasting the Chiefs does not automatically mean they do the same to the Bills. I won’t cope with that belief.

If the A+ Bills showed up it absolutely would’ve been a game against the A+ Eagles that showed up tonight. If the Bills defense got a turnover they get momentum and are fired up, which would’ve sapped some of that energy out of the Eagles. I’m old enough to remember when the Bills had the Ravens on the ropes, up 24-19 and driving to make it 31-19 before being stopped at the 2 yard line. This with Dalton Kincaid dropping a pass that could’ve extended another scoring drive. No one was playing better than the Ravens when we saw them and I’d argue they’re more talented than the Eagles. Certainly an even more dynamic QB and another MVP candidate in the backfield. Say what you will, but the Bills could’ve beaten this Eagles team tonight if they showed up with their best, not with what showed up versus KC. If they came out flat like the Chiefs? Ala Ravens part 1 or Houston? Then yeah, no chance.
-
Remember when everyone said “we just don’t matchup well with the Ravens, we’re probably going to lose”? The Bills were up 21-10 against that team and were threatening to take a commanding 30-19 lead before Dalton dropped the pass that stalled the drive. This against the mighty record setting Ravens who were on another level against everyone. I won’t succumb to “Bills absolutely would’ve lost today” none of you are prophets.
-
I mean, there’s just no way you could say this with absolute certainty. The Bills won 15 games on the year, went into the Lions house and beat them on their own turf. If A+ Allen showed up and the defense got turnovers, they absolutely could’ve beaten the Eagles even on this day. You guys need to stop short changing the Bills like they were some scrubs, lucky to be in the playoffs.

Zack Baun = Lorenzo Alexander

#90, believe that’s Omenihu

I wonder if all the negative ref talk and chatter about the games being rigged had any impact on KC. I mean, they were fielding questions about it during media days.
-
Isn’t Groot valued at $25M/yr?
-
I was going to say “my, my, my how different it is when the refs call offensive holding.” First flags of that nature in their last 3 SBs.
-
I didn’t think they’d stop Sonic and Knuckles with Detroit’s offensive line. Can’t concede that Barkley for sure would’ve ran all over us. He’d be doing better than he is against KC, but to say it’d be 27-10 at halftime just completely discounts the Allen led attack and their hold on the football.
-
The Eagles are very good, but you guys need to stop comparing the Chiefs performance to the Bills. It’d be two totally different games, who knows which side momentum would be on. The Eagles almost got caught by the Rams in the divisional, they squeaked by the Panthers late in the year and got stomped by the Bucs early in the season. The Bills absolutely could’ve came in and went toe to toe with them.
-
While they certainly could’ve beaten the Bills, our OL would’ve held up better than KC’s, so the offense wouldn’t have been this bogged down. I think it would’ve been a hard fought game, score at half would be something like 17-13 in either direction.
-
KC’s OL is getting EXPOSED
-
Think it would’ve looked very much like the Ravens game. Hard fought back and forth with both offenses making plays.
