MNF playoff game always seems to be the "why is this a playoff game?" Matchup 

 

Chargers vs. Texans

I really want a Bills primetime WC game. Last one was the perfect game against the Pats.

I thought he hurt his hand?

Pretty sure Watson (GB WR) was the one who was carted off.

A Packer was on the cart - unless that was Watson; I wasn't focusing at the time so just heard Love mentioned.

I watched the game last night.  The Bengals’ defense played very well on the road against a playoff team.  They also plated well against Denver last week.  I understand that they had some bad games early in the season.  They appear to be playing much better now. Not sure why you want to argue that point.

How would that constitute “screwing over” the Bills?  Edit: now I see what you were talking about.

 

Steelers last three games they were averaging 13 ppg on offense. Bengals gave up 17 to them last night. More than their average. Hendricksen wrecked havoc. Bills offensive strength outside of Allen has been o-line and pass protection.

No you’re right. It was Love. Elbow. But still not sure why he was on a cart. I can guarantee if Josh hurt his elbow, he’s walking to the locker room.

Josh would call Chuck Norris to carry him before getting on a cart.

The South no hopers are making things very difficult for the Falcons and Bucs. TD Panthers, with XP scored. 24-24.

 

And Mayfield's been intercepted on a tip. 16-13 down.

[TheFunPolice]

Bucs are so inconsistent.

 

Offense looks unstoppable at times and awful other times 

[UKBillFan]

The Falcons miss a FG. Panthers take the ball, 24-24.

[UKBillFan]

The Packers and Commanders are both losing, so will remain with Green Bay at seven and Washington at six as it stands.

[UKBillFan]

Bucs lead 20-19.

Falcons just scored a TD against the Panthers; now 31-31.

Commanders trailing the Cowboys; Packers trailing the Bears.

[UKBillFan]

Panthers TD. What is happening in Atlanta?

Moore fumbles for the Bears; the Packers get the ball. 1:43 to go. Commanders trail.

Packers FG - they now lead the Bears 22-21. With the Commanders losing they'd drop to seven, with the Packers at six. 1:41 left in Dallas; Washington have the ball.

[UKBillFan]

Bears beat Packers on a final second FG, and the Commanders score a late TD over the Cowboys. Commanders at six, Packers at seven.

 

TD Bucs - lead the Saints 27-19.

Falcons 38-38 against the Panthers.

Bucs beat the Saints 27-19 and take the NFC South.

 

Meanwhile, the Falcons are going into pointless overtime against the Panthers.

So in the NFC

 

1 Vikings/Lions

2. Eagles

3. Rams

4. Bucs

5. Vikings/Lions

6. Commanders

7. Packers

 

Those are much more interesting ganes compared to the AFC imo (if the Chargers win). I'd be shocked if the Bills, Ravens or Chargers don't advance

Bengals-Bills would be a late Christmas present for TV if it falls that way. Steelers-Ravens... just feels like the Steelers will be run over again. And, as you say, you'd expect the Chargers to beat the Texans. Would make for a great Divisional weekend in the AFC, though.

Looking like both miami and Denver are going to win,  fortunately. Idk why the media has been hyping the bengals up so much over the past 2-3 weeks. The odds of them making the playoffs at that point was around 2%.

Both 2 seeds should play on Saturday. A lot of times they have the extra rest before the game. I think 2 seeds are 7-1 in WC games thus far and it would give them atleast an extra day of rest... and even if the 7 seed won they'd still have the rest disadvantage
