All over the threads and social media is how JACKED our team was in the game by the referees.

I didn’t think a whole lot about being “jacked” initially. Then a couple days ago saw a post of numerous Chief opponents getting short changed on ball spots. Normally, I dismiss such things as creative editing to mislead or misrepresent.

 

This time it registered eerily differently.

After day 7, I'm like, whatever dude.

I'm hoping Canada cuts all power supply to the US at about 5:30 pm.

lol OBOI the bars would be in a PANIC

The results of the game sunk in for me by now.  I didn't have the best week at work so that didn't help matters.

 

Today was the 1st day I feel accepting and chill.  I can tell you a feel a lot more calmer now vs last Sunday when I was more an anxious wreck vs getting enjoyment out of the game.

Would this help in the grieving process?

 

Super Bowl: first half the Chiefs get some insane ref favoritism, but the Eagles are too strong and get up by multiple scores on Saquon's 150 rush yards, even though he has a long one called back by phantom holding. Reid seen screaming at Spags to stop blitzing while Saquon is carving them up.

 

Second half, Mahomes presses and throws two INTs in second half--actually three but one is called back by the refs on phantom PI. Mahomes has to pass 25 times in the half, gets rocked multiple times. Mahomes seen screaming at Andy Reid. Eagles pull away and win by 20.

 

Postgame, Kelce retires. The three-peat dream is gone forever. 

[Riverboat Ritchie]

Still stinks. Lets get this SuperBowl over. Go Bills.

Thats pretty much what it's gonna take.

I don't tend to dwell in the past.  My philosophy is, "Learn the lessons of the past and then figure out what you can do to make the future better."

So I guess you are buying refs. Nice

All I know, for those of us that are "over it" or "moved on" by this time, do yourselves a favor and stay off sports radio, espn, pft, NFL network, etc this week because as I recall from last year, week 2 leading up to the SB is generally a lot worse than week 1 due to all the KC a$$ kissing and player interviews that will take place this week. This is the type of sh*t that will trigger a lot of us. 

 

For me, its gonna be strictly WGR and Locked on bills until KC loses the super bowl or combine/draft coverage takes the spotlight. Whichever comes first...

[benderbender]

My wife joked with me before the game “You know there’s no way they let us win this one, right? What do want Kelce to do: propose to Taylor Swift at the Pro Bowl? No way! She didn’t fly her private jet to Missouri all these times, create a carbon footprint the size of Beijing, just to get locked down in Orlando in front of random player’s grandparents and 3 paying fans.” 

 

Stopped wearing my Bills gear in public because I was getting so many “Y’all got screwed” and “the NFL is just WWE with legalized gambling” conversations in line at the store. 

[Ethan in Cleveland]

Tired of reading abut the officials.

Cook was right don't leave it up to them

 

McDermott should have challenged the spot

Brady should have had other options than repeated QB sneak

Kincaid should have caught the ball

 

A few new PRs over the weekend in the gym

55# shoulder dumbbell presses two sets of 10 reps

165# lat pull downs two sets of 10 reps

817# leg press seated machine, 10 reps!!

 

Milled my rough cherry for my shaker leg tables! 

 

Looking forward to MVP voting. Really want Josh to win, but if he got slighted would only add more fuel to fire to destroy the league next year!

 

Also looking forward to HOF class.

A few locks in an otherwise weak class

 

I'd vote in:

Antonio Gates - many other guys have moved past him on the list of all time greats but he is still a top 10 TE of all-time.

Eli Manning (not a HOF talent but two SuperBowls and multiple HOF caliber throws in the playoffs will make him first ballot HOF inductee)

Adma Venitieri - can't write the story of Pats dynasty and thus the NFL without those kicks in the snow against the Raiders. 

Luke Kuechly - need one guy on defense. He made a lot of plays. Not physically intimidating but if you let in Zach Thomas then Kuechly belongs too as he was better than Thomas in every way. 

 

I'm decidedly on the fence with both Reggie Wayne(supported him in the past) and Tory Holt( said no in the past). Neither seem like generational talents but they do have numbers. My guess is they vote in Holt and leave out Wayne again as I think Holt has been eligible longer.

Eagles 49, Chiefs 3

 

That would feel good!

[blacklabel]

This one stuck with me for a while. I hate it. I hate it for the whole team, I hate it for us as fans. Other fans hate it too, people are sick of the Chiefs. 

 

At the end of the day, they had a chance to go win it and it didn't happen. The next three days I couldn't shake it off. I must've muttered "godd*mmit!" to myself every five minutes. 

 

All week long leading up to the game I just wouldn't allow myself to really believe they were gonna win because that's happened before and it's just a kick in the nards. But during the game I had a few moments of, "they're gonna do it, they're gonna beat these clowns and go to the big one, finally!"

 

And then, ya know, it just didn't happen. I don't think the Bills played poorly, they just didn't quite take advantage of all their opportunities. Some of the calls on offense were a little curious but I dunno, again, they had a chance and it just didn't happen.

 

I hate the Chiefs. They get exactly what they need every time. The refs were crap but I expected that and I don't even get too bent out of shape about that anymore.

 

I don't wanna watch the stupid Super Bowl. After the loss I had to disconnect for a bit. I hope they both lose.

Unless beane takes it up a level in the draft we're going to look back on this bills team as a possible dynasty that failed catastrophically....

 

It's pretty sad and I'm still upset about this AFC championship loss which I feel they were a little bit better but didn't play their best and of course our best cb gets hurt. What a joke 

 

We should already be celebrating a possible second world championship and talk of a dynasty 

 

Beane has to be better. 

 

Tre white getting hurt 

Von getting hurt

Milano getting hurt.

Benford/ Douglas getting hurt these past two playoffs

Elam bust in the 1st

Diggs flipped out and left 

 

 

 

All this happened and we still almost got to a super bowl multiple times.

 

We just gotta hope this goes in reverse the next 10 years. 

 

Beane has to be better but it's been some terrible terrible luck too

 

Of course kelce McDuffie Watson Jones are always healthy and ready to go. Like I said it's a joke

I have been disinterested in football after the loss too. 

 

Lots of regrets in this Allen era.

Day 278, how do you feel?

My biggest fear with the Bills is Beane and McDermott are going to end up having Allen be this generation's version of Dan Marino and Patrick Ewing.
