2024 NFL Playoffs

Very impressive game from Stroud.  Most QB's, even future elite ones, struggle their first playoffs or two.

Could be a bit of a sophomore slump next year, but looks like Stroud could be great.

Line is strong and play calling is good…we’ll see

Ehhhh, I hate that thinking.  QB play has a lot to do with making the OL and play calling look better.  Bit of a chicken/egg thing.

HOU won 3 games last year.  Didn't do it himself, but Stroud deserves a ton of credit for the turnaround.

He made great plays when they got near him. Steelers pass rush couldn’t touch him….Browns pass rush couldn’t touch him. I mean that’s pretty significant. He made the plays and the OC was a big part in what the plays were.

Maybe teams will show blitz and back off into coverage but what I watched I’m not guessing on a bad sophomore year

We can finally put to bed the idiots who want Flacco to be on this team next year. 

Tua looks fucking awful tonight. Quit throwing immediate passes out to the flat that have no chance of going anywhere.

He does but most would in this weather.

He processes quick.  Gets the ball out quick.  After watching Kenny PIckett, I can appreciate how significant that is.

What I'm saying is, you put any of about, I don't know, 20 lesser QBs on that team and the OL and playcalling don't look nearly as good.

Also, why do guys like Wilkins make that blatant roughing the passer penalty. It’s one of the dumbest, unnecessary things they can do. 3rd and 20, he’s already released it and you shove him down for no reason. And it’s Mahomes of all people so you’re definitely not getting away with it.

I can go with that. Stroud gets ample credit, of course I’m impressed by that fine young man. I’m still impressed by the young OC….as I am in Baltimore.

Discipline. You want it so bad and you’re so close so often….just can’t help themselves.

It happens way too much

HE'S COLD!!!

Will any of the remaining games be close? They may very well not be…which is ironic considering it sure seemed like so many games throughout the year just magically went down to the wire.

I said 10 weeks ago Dallas is the team most likely to win and lose a playoff game by 30 this season…that’s still a go

Lions might just go crazy in this home game and blow out Rams

Eagles are a dumpster fire but I still think they beat the Bucs, but they might just give up if they get down at all so who knows. I still think they can pull a KC and blowout the other way.

Pittsburgh at Buffalo ….almost a guarantee to get torched deep 2x and Pittsburgh offense can easily be anemic 

I hope they are all good/watchable games, but I can see blowouts.

If Cowboys lose, I think the big guy is gone.

If Pittsburgh gets waxed…I think Tomlin resigns to take time off

If Eagles lose….will be pressure on Sirianni 

If Lions go for it on 4th and 7 when an XP ties it for OT….I’m going to drive up to Detroit and kick Dan Campbell’s ass (will you guys help me please)

I was hoping on 5+ to help and 2-3 of you to be drunk enough to go in first

27-0… woof

Wtf is happening is Dallas? 

McCarthy doesn’t survive this does he?

Only if he coached in PIT.  His track record is pretty much a mirror image of Tomlin, but if anyone suggested White Mike was a lock for the HOF you'd get laughed out of the room.
