NFL 2022-23 Season

[Zzzptm]

While injuries are common, ones like this are quite rare and I'm glad the game was suspended.

[Zzzptm]

The Dallas team that showed up to play Washington... oof, these guys are not going to do anything in the playoffs, looking like that.

Bills were on fire. TWO kicks returned for touchdowns, wow!

[Zzzptm]

Wild Card games were some wild games indeed!

Bills held on to win over Miami, Bengals schooled the Ravens, Jacksonville gave up FIVE  turnovers and never led at all during the game, but won with a field goal that went in after regulation time ended.

49ers gave the business to the Seahawks, Giants were INSANE against the Vikings, and the Cowboys... five touchdowns, but *missed* the first four extra points! So the winning Cowboys showed up, except for the kicker. But they did win their first away playoff game in 30 years.

Totally absorbing and crazy wild card round.

How ‘bout them Cowboys!!!

[Zzzptm]

Even crazier was that due to broadcasting restrictions (It was on ESPN only in the USA), I had to listen in via radio. I have to say, that was a great experience and I'll do it more often.

[Jack the Stripper]

That’s sucks Z. Do you listen to the Cowboys radio network with Brad Sham and Babe Laufenberg? I usually listen to them via Kwon1400 Bartlesville radio whenever I’m working during a Cowboys game. I enjoy them a lot, biased as fuck but they’re suppose to be.

[Zzzptm]

Yeah, this was my first time with Brad and Babe, but they've been on TV here before and they're great guys. Loved to hear them on the radio and just keep an eye on a live stat update as they chatted. Radio certainly lets them cut up more.

49rs didn't show up, so Sb going to be the Eagles and one of these two - Chiefs & Bengals just started. Just as an aside, the stadium they're playing at is a 30 minute drive from where I live.

[Zzzptm]

From the sound of it, you should be able to hear whenever the Bengals are on the field. The crowd is ALIVE!!!

[Zzzptm]

THAT WAS AN AWESOME GAME.

DUDE.

Super Bowl outghta be awesomeness, hope all the teams heal up prior to it.

No doubt - thought Mahomes was going to have to come out of the game at one point. They needed a win against the Bengals, they've been beating us everytime. Couldn't have picked a better game to do it.

Someone around here is shooting off a cannon lol.

[Zzzptm]

I got a buddy in Philly that was also reporting cannon fire and other pyrotechnics in his vicinity. I texted him after Purdy went out that the Eagles had it in the bag. Game over at that point. My buddy freaked a little after the Squared Sevens got a TD, but believed my prognostication as the game wore on and there was even question of going to a *fifth* QB in the game.

Bengals absolutely did not need to be committing the penalties that they did - it was hard enough being in the noise of Arrowhead. Those elements aside, Joe Burrow showed amazing sang-froid. Cincy's got an amazing QB in him and it will be great to watch their journey with him.

Right now, though, we're watching Mahomes' journey, and it's a fun, fun ride thus far.

For purposes of this forum, I'll root for KC in the Super Bowl.

For purposes of the Philly fans I work with, I'll root for Philly at the same time.

[Vyn]

I'm calling the Eagles by a touchdown.

Would be happy to see KC win it, but objectively I think the Eagles have a more consistently solid team in all areas.

I watched Blazing Saddles the other day. For those that don't know, it's a movie about Cowboys. And much like the NFL team, it's hilariously funny, and has fart jokes.
