NFL playoffs really is a crap shoot though
NBA playoffs makes more sense, more games the truer the results

NFL one muffed punt or pick 6 can change the entire outcome
1 fuck up could be goodbye to the season.
Easy to see first or 2nd round upset exits


Professional sports are in the entertainment industry, people are more entertained with less but higher value games, and the opportunity for underdog stories. This is why the NBAs playoff viewership is less than both the NFL playoffs and March Madness.

That's what makes it exciting. It's not about who's better on average, it's about which way it breaks in this critical moment. Sudden death, high stakes.

Atlanta was up 28-3 at half time...

I was referencing someone else's comment about the ravens loss to the Colts, and all those games I mentioned were played outside of the playoffs but I only mentioned to invalidate his comment. For the sake of validating you, I agree previous wins and losses aren't a great indicator for an upcoming game, but statistically speaking, Josh Allen is the quarterback, outside of Flacco, who was on his living room couch a few months ago, that is the most likely to make one of those mistakes over every quarterback in the playoffs.

I agree
Josh Allen has outrageous talent but he needs to work on his ball security and decision making. It’s definitely his biggest flaw,
His main strength atm is running the ball and that’s terrible to have as a main strength for a QB

I think you need to give credit to his ability to extend plays. That overlaps plenty with his ability as a runner, because him extending to the sidelines sucks up linebackers because you need to respect that threat. Him and Mahomes both create magic when they extend plays.

Yah that is true for sure

But Mahomes is light years better with ball security and decision making with the football. Most of Mahomes interceptions are from bobbled passes by shitty receivers lol

Yeah we can do a wager at whatever the spread is.



And the bills lost to the broncos, jets, and jaguars? Not sure of your direction, but between the two, Bills have far worse losses and lower quality wins. Head to head vs the same teams Ravens have the edge as well.


Bills are a very inconsistent team is all that says.
Baltimore is good but they are banged up. Eventually the injuries will catch up.

The Bills are inconsistent because Josh's play is inconsistent, if they lose a game due to turnovers and he's responsible for every single one, that's not so much a team thing, that's a him thing.
