Man, what a great pair of games. Both with lead changes very late. Rams, who were behind late come back to beat the Panthers, but the Bears, who were down big early, come all the way back to beat the Packers.

Exciting way to open the playoffs!

Wonder why this doesn't show on the main screen?

Those were two very good games! No snoozers or blowouts. Just when I thought the Packers, Bears game was going to be a blowout, the Bears once again gave proof they are the scrappy team that just won't quit. They have been a huge surprise this season.

I normally can't stay awake to finish the night games.

The Bears / Packers game I started to fade. Then the Bears started to come back, woke me wide awake ! lol

I don't know why, I didn't realize Bryce Young was 5'10 205 lbs. He looked small, but played big.

A guy his size will never makke it in the NFL.

Had to work overnight last night. Went to get a few hours of sleep when it was 21-3. Woke up and the Bears won. Didn't expect to see that.

If I heard right, that was the 3rd time the Bears did that to the Pack this season.

Just twice, Packers won the first game with an interception to beat the Bears

Second game Bears won in OT

And you saw last nights outcome

I find myself rooting for the Jaguars

Come on Bills help that 2nd pick for the Browns be early 20's.

Another big play to win the game

Best post season play so far

Rooting for the 49ers next game up

That interception was the help you were wanting !

I'm not sure why I was rooting for Sunshine lol

Jennings pass to MCCaffrey was awesome

Jennings took a big hit

I wonder if that was Purdy if it would have been a penalty, roughing the passer

Jennings was the passer, no penalty called ?

Newsome made Barry look good again today. He got beat on a couple throws late that cost the Jags the lead.

One out of four home teams win so far

That's Da Bears so far.

Can the Chargers win in New England ?

No Belichick

No Brady

No Gronk

Let's go Vrabel !!!

Most of those games were great, especially the Bills/Jags game. Two great QB's.

I've watched so many games lately I think I'm ODing on football. lol

Heard. It is a privilege to watch this man play football. No, he's not perfect. Yes, he falls into grooves where you're yelling "get your head out of your a$$, Josh!" But some of the plays, some of the comebacks, will be talked about for generations with hyperbole reserved only for the all-time greats. Because many of the things he does simply cannot be done by others.

He is my favorite player, and that may be my favorite team.

If Pittsburgh loses tonight, this may be my favorite weekend of football ever. Great games, great stories, great contrast from team to team.

Watching BUF at JAX yesterday and knowing the final drive needed only be 20some yards before that kicker could possibly win the game with a 70 yarder brings an element we've never seen before. Essentially, playing JAX, you cannot let them have the ball last unless you have a four-point lead!

I remember a time when people would say

" Go root for Buffalo "

That would be an easy thing to do now !

Not hard to do.

My wife and I spent a few days in Buffalo over the summer. No reason. Just a pick a point on the map road trip. Whether in a small general store outside the city or a bar in the thick of things, five minutes won't pass before someone mentions Josh Allen and the Bills. His name rings everywhere, his face is everywhere.

After all the talk of elite, and all the pontificating of what it takes to win a championship; all fans really want is someone to cheer for. A football hero that you stand behind, win, lose or tie.

Well, GM says our FO was split between Allen and Mayfield. I honestly think our decision was based on "safety" and the notion that we just cannot mess this up again.

It was the biggest mistake in our history. We passed on someone with tools we had never seen in the toolbox before.

And those that got caught up in the stats must have been blind. Everything was right there if you just watched the tape. I'm a nobody - I stated clearly that if his accuracy never improved it wouldn't matter. You would be trading 2.3 completions per game for someone that can throw to all parts of the field, from any angle, at any velocity, and runs like Gronk in the open field... after he runs over a LB.

No brainer.

Could Drew Allar be this drafts Josh Allen?

I don't think he would ever be quite as dynamic "off script" and not nearly the same threat with his feet; but there's no reason to discount the tools and say he can't be a fQB.

I wouldn't draft him at 6, would you draft him at 24?

Maybe I would draft him in the 2nd round. Definitely in the 3rd. I don't think he would be around after that. It would depend on who we took up to that point and how he looked in workouts.
