Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Chargers v patriots could be very interesting, the broadcaster seem to be hyping up the chargers and rivers a lot, I suspect there is a pro l. A. Conspiracy, I would be on the look out for some dodgy ref decisions in both Los Angeles games. But they are also up against darling Brady.... Ref mafia might not know what to do.

It's supposed to be really cold. I'll bet the game balls will be guarded heavily. ;D
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Wow the Chiefs have started red-hot. Weather's no factor. Gonna be uphill for the Colts from here on in.
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Mahomey fell pretty bad over that guys helmet though, that could be a potentially bad injury.. or he could be fine.
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Colts offense hasn't done much. Tough to expect their defense to carry the load. In fact, their 7 belongs to the defense.
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
31-13 Chiefs. Whoever wins between the Chargers and Patriots tomorrow are going to have a tall task in trying to beat Kansas City at home next week.
Now it's the Rams dominating the Cowboys at home.
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Chiefs squashed em good.... Dallas are still in this game... rams have to be the favourite though. .. Mon the cowboys
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Dallas put up a good fight, but it's over. You gotta figure the home teams tomorrow are favored also. Chargers might make it interesting vs the Patriots, but I don't see the Eagles presenting too many problems for the Saints in New Orleans.

Well, the Eagles pulled it off, upsetting the Bears 16-15 in Chicago. So much for the NFL's top-rated defense. Which means the schedule for the Divisional Championships is set.
Next Saturday:
Indianapolis Colts at the Kansas City Chiefs - I could be wrong, and I'm a pretty lousy NFL game prognosticator, but I think the Colts' luck (pardon the pun) runs out on this one. The Chiefs are probably Super Bowl bound.... they're that good.
Dallas Cowboys at the Los Angeles Rams - Well I already said the Cowboys wouldn't go beyond the next round, and I'm sticking to it. I think the Rams win comfortably.
Next Sunday:
Los Angeles Chargers at the New England Patriots - Tom Brady's getting old.... and NE isn't the dominating juggernaut it used to be. Still, it's hard to pick against them in New England. The Patriots win in a squeaker.
Philadelphia Eagles at the New Orleans Saints - I know the Eagles just beat the mighty Bears, but Trubisky is no Drew Brees. This one is tough to call, but I think the Saints take it in front of their home fans.
Weekend's coming up... ;D Time for another football-watching binge. ;D ;D
Hoping for no blowouts and four nail-biting games. I'll do my best to keep the forum up to speed. :D
Well, I was right on my picks. ;D
Except the Pats-Chargers wasn't a squeaker. Only the Eagles-Saints game was close and came down to the wire.
Early picks for next Sunday:
Pats at Chiefs: It's too difficult to pick against Mahomes at home. Although the Pats dismantled the Chargers at home, I think they fall to the Chiefs next week. Like I said, the Chiefs look Super Bowl bound.
Rams at Saints: Saints had to overcome an early Philly lead, while the Rams looked pretty comfortable against the Cowboys. But Brees at home is formidable. I think the Saints win and meet the Chiefs in the Super Bowl.
The two best teams in the NFL this year.
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Saints got this. Who Dat!
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
I am not an expert but surely that was pass interference by the Los Angeles git.. odd tactics from saints though

You Americans aren't even bothering to hide it anymore... I'm going full tin foil hat brigade now.
Not sure what saints were thinking after the great pass at the two minute warning... kamara is going well you could burn the clock easy running it and use up rams timeouts and they end up only costing the rams one time out and around 15 seconds.... new Orleans gave that one away.
ChiefS now. They went down 14-0 but they're fighting back a bit now... 17-7 start of 4th quarter. .. Kansas in good position on field
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Had a great, exciting NFC Championship game that went into OT............... and now the AFC game is shaping up to come down to the wire!
Hell yeah!!! This is what championship football is all about!!!
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Kansas defence needs to get a bit better here or I think this is still going to be a comfortable win for new england
