I know it seems easy to make a comparison with Drew calling this game, but Burrow is so much like prime Drew Brees. He just has to stay healthy.

For a while there I was thinking overtime, which I would have enjoyed.

 

But yeah, Burrow is set to be a star for years to come.

The Bills had 8 possessions in the game. They scored 7 touchdowns and on the 8th drive they took 3 knees to end the game. That’s wild.

 

Something like that - scoring a TD literally every drive you try to - can’t possibly have happened before right?

Didn't the Bears do that 80 years ago

Did not think the Pats had much of a chance yesterday, was not expecting that kind of a blowout though. Jones strikes me as the type of QB that needs a really strong supporting cast and system, that cast needs to have good games in order for him to succeed so, New England is the perfect place for him. I've seen many harping on the Bears taking Jones but, I still very happy with Fields. It's been rough however, Fields still has all the qualities of potential franchise QB whereas, were seeing pretty close to Jones' ceiling.

I think thats being probably a little unfair to Mac. That first part could describe any rookie QB. I know he had a high floor low ceiling profile coming in, but I'd say he exceeded those expectations even as a rookie. Obviously his ceiling will be a limit of his mental game rather than physical game, but we can't really discount the mental component. I mean even Brady wasn't that good until what like year 5 or 6? If he's in a system that will generally protect him, he could still be a high ceiling QB.

Just realized that if TB wins the Super Bowl, Tom Brady will have more career playoff wins than every other franchise in NFL history

 

Right now:

 

Patriots - 37

Steelers - 36

Packers - 36

Cowboys - 35

Brady - 34

 

Brady is well on his way to winning today. He would pass the Cowboys and tie the Packers en route to Super Bowl. The only team that could mess that up would be the Steelers but they would have to make it to the Super Bowl.

That's probably true, sometimes though you need a QB to make a play or two with his physical abilities that's where Fields is much more attractive.

Oh yea obviously I'd rather have Fields physical tools, but Mac exceeded expectations IMO, even if you felt he was a high floor guy.

Adding these #7 seeds really made for some riveting matchups

 

Yeah, Steelers - Chiefs will most likely be a blowout as well, on the flip side Cardinals - Rams/Niners - Cowboys have chances to be good games.

Roughing Tom Brady. First down.

 

Wow, Fields had to be practically decapitated to get a roughing call.

Totally. Compared to the hits he took this year, the one in Brady was nothing

Would've had all those games under the old rules, just would've had Tampa and KC with the week off instead of beating up on scrubs
