Wild Card Weekend Game Thread

[BigSoxFan]

Texans defense will need to score 2 TDs today. I don't care how bad Weeden is - you have to try him at this point.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Can you imagine O'Brien going up to Brady and Belichick and suggesting that, at the 2, putting Vince in for blocking and having a direct snap to Nink?

 

[Jnai]

I don't think this is a fair look at Hoyer. He's coming in off the bench and trying to run Ryan Malletts offense

The pats threw to Vrabel in the superbowl.

 

[E5 Yaz]

espn: The Browns confirmed that they have completed interviewing New England defensive coordinator Matt Patricia to be the team's head coach.

Yes, but the QB wasn't a defensive lineman

Cleveland; where young, up and coming coaches promising careers go to die.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Bike helmet guy was bummmmed.

 

[54thMA]

Shhh, he's on a roll

They may be the Texans to you, but Houston will always be the Oilers to me. Loved that helmet with the oil well on it, that's some old school AFL shit right there.

Such as Belichick.

 

[mostman]

48-21 in the last 50?

 

[Blue Monkey]

did gruden just say 48 + 21 =50?

 

[PedroKsBambino]

did gruden just say 48 + 21 =50?

Exponent has assured him the math is right.

 

[Brand Name]

48-21 in the last 50?

Isn't the add up to 9 technically to a small degree right, given the 1 tie against the Panthers in 2014?

 

[singaporesoxfan]

Can Hoyer sub for Watt at DE?

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Watt and Maclin both look badly hurt

 

[54thMA]

"Free state of Jones"; yet another shitty ACW movie churned out by Hollywood.

There was "Glory", then everything else.

 

[Freddy Linn]

No Maclin is huge.

Gettysburg wasn't bad

 

[Ed Hillel]

JJ Watt

SEASON OVER

Jeremy Maclin

SEASON OVER

 

[54thMA]

Such as Belichick.

I was referring to the 47 others who followed him.

 

[Dogman]

Maclin is done. He is crying.

 

[johnmd20]

13-0, feels like 35-0.

 

[E5 Yaz]

espn: Texans defensive end JJ Watt was down on the ground when Chiefs tackle Eric Fisher pushed his head into the ground. Watt stayed down on all fours with his head on the ground for a while and was walked off by trainers. Fans are livid and heartily booing Fisher who was just shown on the video board.

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

ACL for Maclin?

 

[johnmd20]

Maclin is done. He is crying.

That's very strong analysis.

 

[FL4WL3SS]

This is why the bye is so important.

The Patriots road just got a bit easier if Pitt can win.

 

[54thMA]

Gettysburg wasn't bad

Chamberlain and the action on the far left slope of Little Round Top was excellent, Pickett's Charge was very good, the rest, not so much.

Except when Ted Turner stopped a dozen bullets in the middle of Pickett's Charge.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Ok let's go Steelers.

 

[Dogman]

That's very strong analysis.

I generally see players writhing in pain but almost never in tears. Maclin in tears likely means he just got the news that the doctors knew his knee is toast.

 

[johnmd20]

That was a bit of a cheap shot on Watt, hurt or not.

True. Then again, it's a real short of films that do that period justice at all

 

[Dogman]

Big catch.

 

[BigSoxFan]

GJGE, Houston.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Anybody have a win probability number for this one? 95%?

 

[johnmd20]

99.99999999999999%

 

[TrotWaddles]

If he didn't know he was hurt, I can't really fault a guy for a little extra "business" to keep him out of the play. If he knew he was hurt---douchebag.

 

[54thMA]

Agreed, considering how extremely popular the ACW is in American culture (just ask any southerner who thinks the war is still going on), you'd think there would be a long list of iconic ACW movies.

You've got Glory, Gettysburg, Gone with the Wind, The horse soldiers.........................and.........................well, that's about all she wrote. And I digress....................back to the shitshow of a game we're all watching, first round NFL playoff football at it's finest.

 

[johnmd20]

Nice hands Nate. Houston going through the motions.

I'll take the over

 

[The Social Chair]

Early 90s football looks ancient.

 

[Nator]

This game is a disgrace.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Texans hearing footsteps or maybe tomahawks in flight.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

O'Brien has to be thinking "this all felt easier with Brady at QB...."

 

[Ed Hillel]

This game is setting up perfectly for Manning to head to Houston.

 

[54thMA]

And.................cut.

This game was over after the opening kickoff got run back for a TD.

But now it's really over.

 

[aksoxfan]

Why am I watching this and listening to Tirico-mouth?

Gods and Generals, though it was so unpopular they never finished the Shaara trilogy.

 

[PayrodsFirstClutchHit]

Jim Nantz does not approve of that run.

 

[johnmd20]

GJGE. Wow. This game is a disaster.
