NFL 2021-2022 Season

Rams had a great first half, will the Bucs adjust enough to get out of their 3-score hole?

Chiefs-Bills game is definitely the best one of the weekend. Heading into OT now...

[Jack the Stripper]

Unbelievable game. Gutted for the Bills.

I’m running out of teams to root for as I despise them all except Cincinnati. So I suppose I’m rooting for them now

[Vyn]

The Chiefs or the Bills could have won that game - they both deserved it. Can't say I'm upset at the outcome, though

The entire weekend had solid football games.

[Zzzptm]

Watching the end of the KC-Bills game, I realized those teams were going to keep on scoring touchdowns, if we let them. The coin toss just put an end to that kind of thing - it determined the next touchdown and the game end. I'd like a better overtime situation, one where there's a little more play, but not one that leads to multiple iterations of overtimes. That would take some hashing out by a lot of loud men in a big conference room.

Looking ahead, Chiefs are going to beat the Bengals. It could be close, but they will find a way. The score could be 99-98, but it'll be the Chiefs with the bigger number. I expect a shootout like the Chiefs had with the Bills, really looking forward to this one.

Rams will beat 49ers. Special teams have really come out as deciding factors in these playoff games, and SF has some excellent performance from theirs. But is the SF O line good enough for the pass rushers that the Rams have? Defense still wins championships, and the Rams have the edge there, I believe. Another great game on tap, don't underestimate what the Squared Sevens can do!

Back to the weekend roundup, those were four fine games to watch, with some excellent play from all teams. Titans did better than I expected, 49ers proved me wrong about my expectation that Rodgers would walk all over them, Rams got a big return on their investment after a hard-fought second half, and the Bills and Chiefs gave their whole heart to their game. Great weekend for American Football!

Yeah the OT rule sucks but the fact is the Bills should never have lost the game from that position. Coaching malpractice cost them a spot in the Conference championship game.

Sean McDermott is gonna be haunted by the number 13 for the rest of his life.

It's an easy fix.  Just go back to the rules they used in the 1970s.  Then first to score wins, even if it was a field goal.  There were plenty of lengthy overtime thrilling games back then.  All this easy scoring is exactly why I have not watched a complete game, other than Super Bowls, in over 20 years.

I like that, and instead of a coin-toss, whoever scored last kicks off to the other team. Or the home team receives. Just get the coin toss out of there.
