The divisional round of the playoffs is complete. Denver beats Buffalo in overtime. Josh Allen misses his best Super Bowl opportunity of his career. But maybe there is a silver lining. It cost Sean McDermott his coaching job in Buffalo. I’ve been calling it all year. If Buffalo didn’t make the Super Bowl, he would lose his job. The GM for Buffalo should be next. You can’t expect Josh Allen to be Superman if you don’t have the pieces around him. Can anyone name more than one receiver on Buffalo?
Oh by the way, Denver won the game but lost Bo Nix on the last play or second to last play of the game. He’s out for the rest of the playoffs. What a buzz kill.
The Seahawks pounded the 49ers to advance to the NFC Championship. Is it me or do the Seahawks feel like the Indiana Hoosiers of the NFL?
New England beat Houston in what might have been the worst playoff football game in history. Is Drake Maye the luckiest quarterback alive? He fumbles more than anybody yet it seems like New England always comes up with the loose ball. Good luck against the Denver defense.
The Rams beat the Bears in overtime last night to advance to the NFC Championship game against Seattle. At this time, I don’t see the Rams having any chance agains the Seahawks.
