Agreed but the rivalry is very real. Plus the Eagles fans beat up Santa Claus once......what did g-spot fans expect?

Anyone else find it annoying how the announcers never shut the fuck up, I just want to watch the game and have you call first downs and big plays. I don't care about the nuances of why running back #415 is playing instead of #367.

The announcers are fine. Doing their job. The commercials bother me, though. I don't buy fifty-year-old Queen Latifah as some sort of supercop. Heck, I have my doubts about her actually being royalty.
Great strip and recovery by the Bills for the win. Oh, the refs haven't called it yet, but I am. EDIT: wtflol, what a shitty call. Bills still got it, though.

RIP Colts. That was a great game, can't believe they managed to stay in that one for so long. First post-season win for the Bills in 25 years, well deserved too.
Looks like Seahawks vs Rams is going to be a shitshow for these offenses. Aaron Donald is making it know he's not fucking around though.

DK Metcalf throwing a hissy fit on the sideline? And everybody can hear you? Yup, that's a recipe for a pick 6. Forcing passes to disgruntled WR's usually ends up in interceptions. Good job on the DB for realizing the play immediately
EDIT: And a spectacular TD catch from Metcalf the following series. Way to quickly make up for it. That should calm him down for the rest of the game

Oof. Walford, the Rams QB who got helmeted, has been taken to a hospital for his neck. Damn, hope he'll be okay.
I ain't changing my bet that LA wins, though.

This game is the usual "3 quarters of pain, hope Russ pulls it together in Q4" Seahawks nonsense, but that lefty one-handed catch in coverage by Lockett was SO SMOOTH that I almost don't care.

Check, check, check, check, check, and what the holy fuck?
Well, I wish I could get five out of the six things right in life when it really matters. There is no way I ever would have guessed the Steelers would beclown themselves like that, though. Wow.

Urinating Tree's meltdown over the course of the first quarter of that Browns-Steelers game was EDP445-level magnificent. Dude raged so hard he somehow caused his internet to go out.
It's beyond doubt that Pete Carroll's the problem with the Seahawks. He had a press conference this morning where he said he's committing to a better running game next year and keeping Schotty entirely because of the late-season adjustments that completely neutered our offense. I get that our legendarily bad defense at the season's start made him freak out over Russ' turnovers, but a) they totally turned it around, and b) there's a middle ground between running 4 verts every play and going back to half our playcalls consisting of running the RB up the gut for 1-3 yards. This man is allergic to the short game.
It sucks that we gave him an extension and he's halfway to owning the team at this point, he needs to go. People making late Mike McCarthy at the Packers comparisons are spot on. Looking forward to drafting another RB in the 2nd round once Carson runs away in free agency!

It was pathetic. Urinating Tree did a livestream on it. I look forward to another episode of days of our Steelers.

What's the over/under of Deshaun Watson being traded? I think they'd be dumb to trade him after signing him to that large contract as franchise QB's are hard to come by, but then again, it's the same organization that thought that giving O'Brien full GM powers too was a good idea.

It's probably just sports media searching for the premier offseason story, but if any owner is stupid enough to drive his franchise QB away, it's Cal McNair. If he gets traded it isn't going to be because they were dumb, but because there's so much bad blood between him and the organization that he demanded it.

Seahawks part ways with offensive coordinator Schottenheimer
On the same day the Seattle Seahawks retained their general manager, they moved on from their offensive coordinator.
The Seahawks dismissed Brian Schottenheimer on Tuesday, just days after a 30-20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Wild Card Weekend.
"Brian Schottenheimer is a fantastic coach, and we thank him for the last three years. Citing philosophical differences, we have parted ways," the team said over social media.
Head coach Pete Carroll, quarterback Russell Wilson, and receiver DK Metcalf were vocal about their displeasure with the offense in the Seahawks' home playoff loss Saturday.
Seattle was 2-for-14 on third downs, and Wilson completed just 11 of 27 pass attempts for 174 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. The Rams ran an interception back for a touchdown when cornerback Darious Williams jumped the route on a wide-receiver screen.
"The game kind of felt stale for us in a way - we kind of flatlined," Wilson said postgame. "We needed to get going and make that happen. And the next thing you know, we didn't."
Carroll instead took issue with the team's running game.
"We have to run the ball better, and not even better, we have to run it more," Carroll said the day after the postseason exit. "We have to dictate what's going on with the people that we're playing, and that's one of the ways to do that. I know the fans aren't real jacked on hearing that, but Russ knows it, too. We need to be able to knock those guys into the scheme that we want to throw at."
The Seahawks' offense seemed to have two different seasons. Wilson began the year as an MVP favorite, throwing for 300-plus yards in five of Seattle's first eight contests. In the second half of the year, his completion percentage and passer rating plummeted.
The quarterback tweeted a goodbye message to his offensive coordinator:
The Seahawks haven't advanced past the playoff's divisional round since 2014.

Still worried it's because even Schotty told Pete he couldn't do an 80's style run offense anymore, but I'm open to continuing to be proven wrong.

If y'all couldn't even protect Wilson, then what makes Pete think that you could have an aggressive run game? You need an offensive line for that

A bunch of Russ' sacks come from the scheme only allowing deep ball instead of medium passes (maybe because Pete's terrified of INTs, maybe over concerns about Russ' height), so he plays hero ball a lot of the time when he isn't handing it off to our running back and gets hit a lot for it. We've actually built an ok to good offensive line around him over the past few years. Our running game fails because it's at least twenty years out of date, everyone knows how to counter it, and even when it was working it relied on a borderline HOF bruiser like Marshawn Lynch to succeed. The Beast Quake run is a great example. He hit like 8/11 defenders on that run. You can't build a running game around expecting that kind of trucking to ever get past a first down.
As far as Pete is concerned, he cares far too much about forcing a specific identity to get players to buy in instead of building his scheme to match his talent. It's great for motivating players but gets you got in the wildcard round if you don't have a legendary defense, as we've seen over the past few years. I want to make jokes about him being the anti-Belichick in that regard, and that's why Bill replaced him way back when, but that's a bridge too far even for me. He can be a great coach, he just shouldn't do offensive playcalls anymore.

I have a feeling that Green Bay is going to win the championship. It feels like the stars are aligned for Aaron Rodgers to lift up his second Lombardi trophy.
