What's the better game:
Green Bay at Atlanta?
Atlanta at Dallas?

They may be at the same golf course ... u never know .... *L* ...
The best unit in football vs the best player in football ...
Nelson will be a big loss but they have the potential to make it up ...
Adams, Cobb, Montgomery, Cook aren't exactly chopped liver ....
Should be a good one .... the snoopers coming up next ...

No matter who wins tomorrow, I dunno if the cowboys or packers defense can stop the falcons O.

if you don't have a offense that can put up 23 to 26 points a game you can forget about making the playoffs I hope Hue can realize that funny how the Falcons took on 3 players from the North and all 3 became integral in the Falcons journey so far

I know they are in a terrible division which is why they made the playoffs.... But they average like 17 points a game... Just have an amazing defense..

Nice push off by Edelman. No call
How does a league celebrating its 100th season only recognize the 53 most recent championships?

Texans will probably lose this game but they can hold their heads up high right now... Take away that kick off return and this is a different game....

Well, we definitely have more competition for a QB now.
Add Houston to that list.

Brock is so frustrating to watch. This Texans D and playmakers are outstanding, and he just doesn't push the ball downfield at all. And the ONE time he did, Fuller dropped a dime in the end zone.
Brady seems off tonight. He's playing great, and the picks aren't really on him, but is it just me or do most of his throws seem like they're floating? I always remember watching Brady just whip the rock around the field. Now it just looks like it's floating everywhere (albeit, extremely accurate and effective).
Maybe I'm off base.

No, I'm seeing it too and I don't really have an eye for this kind of stuff. It's almost as if Brock's field vision doesn't extend beyond 15 yards from the pocket. He just won't throw or even look out there.
I noticed a 3rd and 5 earlier where Hopkins got passed to the safety 1-on-1 and had most of the middle of the field wide open. Any NFL QB is salivating for that chance. They'd loft it up and pick up 30-40 yards and possibly 6 points....but Brock never looked and chose a 3 yard pass that fell behind the WR.
It's almost funny to say, but the Texans should have won this game. They made mistakes, couldn't score without Brock's mistakes and were daring the Texans to go deep.
Even with the game over, I'm watching because of the 16.5 line. A lot of people thought the Pats would kill them by 30...Vegas was right (as of now).
As for Brady, this is a good Texans defense. They're getting in his face, knocking him down and there seems to be a bit of rust as well. If the Steelers win tomorrow, I hope Brady wakes up because Pittsburgh would destroy tonight's Pats team.

at least 5 former Cleveland Browns played in the playoff games on Saturday.
Jabal Sheard, Dion lewis, Taylor Gabriel, Atyba Rubin, and Alex Mack made appearances.
(not that it makes a difference either way,)
... I saw that wr pick play for a td in the early game.
Man! can the Browns learn how to do that, ? , can they teach Hawkins and Coleman to work together on some of those.
Might be nice.
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

j/c: A few comments on yesterday's games: --It's irritating to see all the ex-Browns winning w/the Falcons. Remember all the posts on here that said stuff like: The Browns won 3 games last year, how good could any of those players be?" LOL.... --Shanny is a genius when it comes to his play design and route tree. Oh, the route tree thang...."That" got a laugh out of it and used it over and over and over. Still laughing? Anyway, I don't know if he would be a great HC, but he is the most innovative OC in the NFL, and of course, the Browns alienated him and didn't want him. --Seattle played dirty. And they hold on every play when they are on defense. Sherman gets away w/murder. --Seattle's OL blows. Can't win w/an OL that is that bad. --Atlanta has improved on D and they are fast, but they are not that good and will get exposed. --Mack really solidified that OL. He is truly a great player, despite what so many people said on here. --Houston's D is legit. Mercilus is a great player. I liked him coming out of Illinois, but he has exceeded my expectations. He is so fast, so versatile, so disruptive. --Losing Demps hurt Houston. --Osweiler played okay in the first half. The game got away from them in the second. His delivery is funky. Very compact. I always wonder if being that tall is almost a detriment. He almost throws the ball like a dart rather than w/a traditional motion. --Lewis is a difference maker. Banner traded for him the year we traded the bum, TRich. People forget about that. Too bad he got hurt here, although Farmer probably would have cut him anyway. --Eddleman is one of the toughest guys in all of football. He takes no crap from anyone and is constantly kicking ass. --Brady is great, but I get sick of him complaining about getting hit. He is afforded more protection by the refs than any player in the league. --I have one question: What was 40 talking about when he said the Steeler/KC game is boring and has too many commercials? ![rofl rofl](/images/graemlins/default_dark/rofl.gif)

Osweiler for as tall as he is doesn't drive the ball downfield.he has the mechanics of a schoolyard qb..
Belichek does a great job of riding a hot player for 4 quarters. I've never seen a offense where aa many players have had a multiple tds game. Blount...one week...Lewis... Tim Wright a couple years back...Bennett....
The Falcons offense is on par with the Steelers everyone gets involved before it was White and Jones now any of 5 playears can score at any time

Today should be exciting day in the NFL. Both games have the making of a classic.
My nephew was born in KC and now lives in Boston. For his birthday his girlfriend bought him tickets for this game! So, he flew in yesterday. Lucky man!
Go Kansas City!

j/c...again every home team has won!
Seattle's OL is the worst. Wilson has not looked himself not a good game for him.
Ryan has played amazing. Mack has done their OL wonders. Bad 2015 in Shanny's first year. What a difference year two makes and two additions Mack and Gabriel knew the O.
Those RBs as WRs are tough match ups.
Pats made some very key mistakes or that game was a laugher. Game plan against Brady and other great QBs is no surprise...hit him and hit him often.
TE miss match not there due to injuries...so the Pats go with RB miss matches in the passing game.
Happy for Dion Lewis he has had a tough go with injuries.
Thought BB was going to rip off the head of that DB who got the 15 yard penalty after stopping the Texans.
Pats took away the running game and had the Texans throw a lot more than they wanted to. The many air reps exposed their QB.
Hope the home wins continue today!
jmho - key in Dallas...Ezekial!
Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off! Go Browns! CHRIST HAS RISEN! GM Strong! & Stay safe everyone!

I'm disappointed that the Chiefs vs Steelers got moved to prime time. I like 1PM starts because I'm not in my "Sunday night, staring down the barrel of another work week mood" yet. Now I'll probably just skip it.

I think I heard during the game that Atlanta is the only team in the league that had the same 5 players start every game along the offensive line?
