They have been something. 3 won in the last few seconds with field goals and the last won in overtime after back and forth leads in the last few minutes of regulation.
I’m only sorry the Packers couldn’t pull theirs off.
 
Well Chuck, you have the next round followed by the Super Bowl to make it up
 
You could see that great Buffalo D ran out of gas in OT. Too bad they had to lose.

Allen was throwing darts, just incredible.


Great to see Stafford finally get to play with a supporting cast and a strong defense to hold the line.

Brady was his usual self, amazing at 44.

Great games all weekend. While the MI connection has made me a Brady fan I couldn’t help but be happy for Stafford after all those miserable years in Detroit.

And the KC v Buffalo game was bittersweet as I hate to see a game like this (possibly) decided by a coin flip.
 
Not sorry to see Aaron lose. He is a ****** and spells his last name wrong!

I have little doubt, if given the chance, Allen was going to go right down the field into the end zone.
 
I can safely say here in Chiefs kingdom, the instances of heart attacks rose dramatically last night. That game was a classic! The Bills and Chiefs will hopefully have a long running rivalry with two young quarterbacks at the helm and such outstanding personnel on both sides of the ball.
 
Probably the end of an era. The QB's who have dominated NFL teams for at least a decade are probably not coming back for 2022. Roethisberger, Rodgers and Brady, the senior citizens, could not get their teams into Super Bowl competition. Proves the old saying "know when to leave because if you stay too long you don't leave as a hero but a loser".
 
Four really great playoff games. Too bad the Bills offense never got a chance to play in overtime.
 
Remarkable games...all of 'em.

I've lost interest in the NFL for the most part the past few years, (the Giants being terrible not helping there), but these games helped me remember how great it could be (at times).
 
I'd call it a generational change. Brady has been in the league the longest and had a great career. Rogers and Rothlisberger also had very, very, good careers.

Watching TB yesterday, it looked to me that Brady had suddenly got old before our eyes. He got knocked down and laid on his back for several seconds. The look in his eyes said, "*** am I doing this for? I've done it all and don't need this."

Which didn't mean that he gave up, but I got the feeling that he might not be back.

Mahones is a terrific QB, Allen is very good and seems to be typical of the upcoming generation of QBs. He can throw, he can run, he just doesn't care what he needs to do, he does it.

All Andy Reid has to do right now is sit back and not screw up clock management. Mahones, Kelce, Hill, and the others will get the job done.

Usually don't watch sports, but kept hubby company watching all but the Buffalo game this weekend.
I understand there were roster changes that affected the teams, but it hardly seemed that these were well-oiled championship level warriors.
Except for the kickers, it was just amateur hour. Umpteen QB sacks, fumbles, and interceptions. The penalties for unsportsmanlike conduct and taunting seemed an outgrowth of the stupid prima donna hotdogging, ohh look at me show the players put on every time they did something right.
They should just do their job, and hold off on the hijinks until the victory party.

Especially when their team is down by double digits and they block one pass.

I guess it comes from being told that they were "special" since they were about 8 years old.

Or maybe they have low self esteem and have to show everyone how great they are.

"Act like you've been here before." seems an appropriate phrase in those cases.

A nutshell write-up from ESPN that encapsulated the weekend very well:

"If you were lucky enough to plunk yourself down on a couch somewhere for the two days of the NFL divisional round, you're probably pretty thrilled with your decision. The four games we saw over the weekend delivered just about everything we could have asked for: three upsets, four close games, a dethroning in Nashville, a defensive battle in the snow at Lambeau, a near-comeback for the ages in Tampa from Tom Brady and an all-time classic between the Bills and Chiefs to wrap up things Sunday night.

I strongly suspect this was the best four-game divisional round we've ever seen, given that we saw three games decided by kicks on the final play before the Chiefs tied their game with a 48-yard field goal at the end of regulation and won in overtime."

There is much online debate today about playoff OT rules.

Who Dey!
 
Now if someone would please gorilla tape Tony Romo's mouth shut, the game would be less distracting.

My heart is in permanent AFib and my pacemaker is fixed at 80 BPM.

During all four games I could tell that they were at odds with each other. I would floor the gas pedal but the governor would kick in. Odd sensation.
