Hamlin getting the Mysterious Mobster Business man treatment in that shot.

I am still wondering about that play early in the drive where Allen backpedaled straight back about 15 yards with 3 rushers on him and chucked it deep out of bounds. Outside the tackles, really?

The theory of relativity was actually discovered when Einstein was looking for a way to GTL simultaneously. In fact, if you travel around the earth faster than the speed of light, you could theoretically fist pump for eternity.
Ah yes, the basis for Christopher Nolan's next film. I believe the great Paul Giamatti is in the running to play Pauly D. Should be a mind-bender!

28 might have been “in the area”. Only noticed because I was thinking of grounding too.

Yeah, I'm not raging but that seems hyperbolic to the extreme and I like Mahomes but 3 or 4 plays in one drive that would be on the GOATs all time highlight reel? Are you talking strictly athletically? Because, okay...everyone knows that Mahomes is a different kind QB than Brady. Fields makes plays Brady can't as well.

If the Chiefs make 3 more straight AFC title games and win a few more Super Bowls, we can talk, because right now your Mahomes argument is what you *think* he *might* do. Let him do it first.
All I meant was that he has the best chance to threaten Brady as the GOAT. I don't want to derail this thread because it's a game thread, but his anger at being taken out of the game tells me he's got the same fire as Brady, and he has the best chance to threaten his records. As pure talent, he's unmatched in the history of the game.

Football people, help me out here...what's the Cincy offensive lineman (RG?) pointing at right before the snap? Calling something out, or just a cadence thing?

Stops are like oxygen and Buffalo can't get a breath right now
When the mortally injured guy survives and everyone appreciates the preciousness of life that much more… it’s apparently not actually as motivating to do violence as the media would have had us believe.

That is the silent count. It means ready to snap. Then they snap a certain number of seconds later. Usually 2.

I feel like every time Romo or Nantz compliment anything Buffalo does well, the next play shows the opposite.
It’s a statistical residual, an effect that is a function of only complimenting the rare events—it’s definitionally not likely to repeat itself.
