I think the holy roller rule only applies on 4th down or in the last 2 minutes of the game.

I think.
I love how they call that the "holy roller rule", that was such a chickenshit BS way to win a game, leave it to the Raiders, "Just cheat baby!"

These two games really make Kubiak's decision at QB obvious. Manning may be dinged up with less arm strength, but experience seems to matter in these games.

I've decided I'm okay with either possible matchup next weekend.

Watching these games, one thing is clear: it's all up to the Pats. If they play close to their potential, they should beat Cincy or KC, if they perform closer to the trend of the last two months, they'll struggle against either. I'm not really worried about who we'll face.

Thanks for the highlights showing a low blow cheap shot that blew out Carson Palmer's knee and helped propel Pittsburg to a Super Bowl win; awesome.

I know, but it looks like the rain has subsided. Maybe they can run the ball now?
PIT really can't cover downfield. If rain lets up enough to actually make downfield throws CIN still has a chance. Got a glimpse of it on the Green completion on this drive.

KC worries me a bit. No one else in the AFC would remotely worry me in Foxboro. Denver still a concern just because of the bullshit that always happens there.

McCarron or not, Cincy has too many weapons to get shutout by a shitty Steelers defense.

I'm very torn here. I wanted Pitt to win, because I think they beat Denver. However, KC has been on fire.

Although it was the Texans ...

Jets fans must be losing their minds watching this.
They finished with their best record in five years, ended up out of the playoffs and fucked up their draft position in the process.

It's yet another Jetsian thing in a long, long line of Jetsian things that have brought a smile to my face.

DeCastro was throwing leg kicks to the helmet. No flag and Simms brags about the play

KC's offense consists of a mediocre QB, good TE, and some decent RBs. Pats stop the run and they win.
