    Alex Smith QB Andy Reid coach is not a combo you want if you want to win playoff games.

    Poor Chiefs fans - the Chiefs 6th straight home playoff loss dating back to 1995.

    AFC is rather weak - neither team looked a geniune title threat - cool win for Mariota and the Titans though - might have saved Titans coach Murlarkey is job.

    Falcons lead Rams 13-10 at the half. Raiders confirm that Jon Gruden is their new(ish) head coach.

    The more experienced Falcons beat the LA Rams 26-13 to advance to face the QB-less Philadelphia Eagles. The road to the Superbowl is looking a little easier for the Falcons.

    Here's hoping that Matty Ice finds redemption in the SB game by beating the evil empire Patriots 😉

    If the Bills and Jaguars are playing each other, just don't air the game. It does more harm to the NFL than good.

    3 all at the half.

    I started watching.

    Then figured I had better things to do with my life than watch Tyrod playing Blake.

    Second game today should be a lot better, and a good warmup to the real game tomorrow at 2pmNZT

    Fittingly, Nathan Peterman throws an interception to end the game.

    That's his 6th interception of the season (he's only attempted 52 passes).

    @mimic Vikings v Saints in another dome game will be good fun.

    Saints almost blew it at the end there.

    Panthers had a horror drop in the endzone followed by a bad FG miss in the first half. Probably would ahve made a game of it.

    Pity - I enjoy McCaffery and Newton when they're rolling

    How many games have teams won when their qb has rushed for more yards than he's passed? The verb 'to bortle' just goes from strength to strength.

    it's meaning has changed since 2016, that's for sure.

    Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to bortle a cold beer

    Watched the Bills/Jags highlights - jaysus, I need an award for sitting through that. Both Taylor and Bortles are backup QBs at best and the Buffalo backup (Peterson?) shouldn't be playing at all.

    Maybe they were fighting for the last bite of that mouldy sandwich in the bottom left corner?

    Ryan has been a bit iffy as well, but a nice little play by him for the TD pass just then after missing a really easy TD opportunity just two plays earlier.

    The Philly kicker isn't too bad. 53-yard field goal and it's halftime with Atlanta ahead 10-9.

    @sneakdefreak He's normally pretty good. He did miss that extra point though, which could be crucial in a game like this.
