AFC NFC Championship Thread

Dang...
 
How awesome if Darnold looks in the camera and says Bite My *** Minnestoa.
 
Seahawks favored by 4.5 over Pats

I'm tempted to take Seattle right now. I don't see how anybody thinks NE will win. Maye has been bad in the playoffs, only saved by each opponent having key injuries.
 
I sure hope they beat the Patriots. Seems like they are owed one.
 
Denver fans should feel good. Their coach didn't take some lame FG. He played to win!

They have stats for everything. I really wish they tracked the actual win loss record of these big analytics decisions.

Seemed like more 4th down conversions failed this season let me see if I can find it.
 
Ok per AI

League approximate average (reg. season):


If you average all 32 teams’ 4th down conversion rates here, the league is roughly ~58–60% on all fourth downs in 2025. But 4th-and-1 specifically is historically higher, roughly ~70–72% league average by analytics models — that’s consistent with Next Gen data showing around 72% conversion for 4th-and-1 situations league-wide historically.
 
These games today to me were ruined by dumbassed coaching decisions to go all Dan Campbell and "Go Fer it"

I bet Payton wished he would have taken the 3 in the firsthalf instead of losing by three in the second and blowing two kicks later in the game during a blizzard.

If Mckvay takes the points in the mid 4th he doesn't need a TD to win it.

It is the playoffs, it is do or die, FFS Take The Freaking Points!

As it stands today, the best executed football game that I have watched this season remains a high school football game

I hear you I hate taking points off the board. Especially in a game it is clear that it will be a nail biter…
 
What makes me mad about Tomlin, and Im probably being unfair, is that while the Steelers were under his leadership the Cheats have been quietly rebuilding, are back in it , and have opportunity to surpass this storied franchise for the most Super Bowls won.
Rebuilding and getting back to the SB should have been our story.

Not being unfair they held onto Mike way too long.

Rooney only cares about lining his pockets.
