Yep, they had to push back the NYG-MIN game too:

Doesn't Jungle Noise not allow posters from other teams? [Not relevant to the post exchange, but just asking.]

This will be Nantz and Romo's third consecutive trip to Orchard Park in three weeks.

If would have been a TD if Huntley had hit that OL.

Here ya go: https://www.thepowderblues.com/forum/forum/los-angeles-chargers-forum-nfl-forum-padres-forum/the-los-angeles-chargers-forum/1453682-disaster-post-game-meltdown-thread [also the end of their game day thread a little below]

Chargers' fans on their forum are having a meltdown. They want Staley and Lombardi fired. They are blaming Bosa for the loss.

There won't be any. The celebration was in bad taste, but did not involve any props or simulate an illegal act, so it is legal.

Yeah, it's only a one-day's drive from KC I read on their forum. I assume it's similar from Buffalo or so. Yeah, he's not that good, but he's on FOX Sports Radio on my drive, and that's the only sports channel available here. My my ears lit up when I heard he was having Eric Wood on, so that made it worth it.

Found this on the Chiefs' message board: And this: https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showpost.php?p=16730267&postcount=75 "This could be a huge boost to the Chiefs. In bad weather Allen can just run it 30 times." And tired of reading comments like this there: https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showpost.php?p=16729910&postcount=12 "won't matter Bills will lose to the #3 seed"

Awesome video of McD's arrival on the plane in Buffalo and greeting the staff for the first time with Doug Whaley:

Yeah, Doug has had his share of issues alright, lol:

I caught Eric Wood's segment on The Doug Gottlieb Show today on Fox Sports Radio. I just wanted to give a quick summary of what he said (couldn't find it on YouTube; maybe there will be a podcast or something out later). 1. Doug Gottlieb led by saying Troy Aikman is a much better analyst now on ESPN that he ever was on FOX. He speculates it is because Aikman know the ESPN audience in a more serious, sports-minded one, and Aikman knows this, so he has to prepare better. He then plays Aikman's clip. Aikman stated the NFL is great at maximizing profits, but is worse at putting out a good product. Aikman goes on to state that some of the games on one particular unnamed network this year were horrible, and that is because of the poor fundamentals, like tackling. He asked himself: "is this really pro football?". So, Doug asked Eric what he thought about that (he called him "Woody"). Eric said the way the salary cap is nowadays, there are less middle-tier vets, with 8- or 9-years' experience. They are mostly on the extremes: really good vets, or newer players with less experience. This is why quality of play has dropped. Gottleib went on to ask Eric about Aikman's statement. Eric said that is true too. The NFLPA has successfully argued for less contact is pre-season, as well as no two-a-days, like when he first started. So, this particularly affects QB's, OL, and some defensive positions. 2. Eric then stated you can't blitz QB's like Mahomes and Burrow too often, as you will get burned. You need to pressure them with just four guys. He said that is why the Bills got Von, whom they wanted as a "closer". With his injury, the Bills are weaker, but still can get it done, as they have a number of first- and second-round picks on the DL. He still gives the Bills an edge vs. Cincy or KC. 3. Gottlieb then asked about Damar, and how the NE game seemed like a Hollywood ending, with Damar facetiming the Bills before the game, then Hines returning the opening kick-off for a TD. he had never seen anything like what happened to Damar at the game. He and all the players this was something serious when they saw the medics rushing onto to field like never before. He also said he was calling the NE game the only time he had seen something as exciting as the Hines return for a TD was when Micah Hyde took a short onside kick back to the house. [Gottlieb didn't ask about John Murphy at all.] 4. Gottlieb asked Wood if the Bills were itching to face KC again in the Championship Game. Eric said that would be ok, or they would also be happy if someone like the Chargers knocked them out first. 5. Gottlieb then asked about how he felt with Atlanta being chosen as the neutral-site field. Wood said a dome makes it as neutral as you can get. Although he wanted Detroit or Indy to get the game, as that would be great for their respective economies, which needed the boost, Atlanta is already set for this, with all the direct flights from KC and Buffalo, and with all the available hotel capacity. He said there were some volleyball tournament issues with Indy, and Detroit was doing something with their turf that week. Wood said the whoever gets the visiting locker room in Atlanta will be ok, since it is much better than the ones at Buffalo or KC. Gottlieb stated that if the game were going to be in a dome and at a place with enough hotel capacity, he preferred the best site of them all: Las Vegas. Wood said Atlanta was a better choice for ease of travel for Bills fans.

They are so slow on FinHeaven. This was posted here 37 minutes ago, but just 2 minutes go on FinHeaven. [They were also saying there that it is too risky for Tua to play since he could be hit in the head by a snowball.]

No problem! You probably know this already, but the playoff crews are mixed all-star crews, so it won't be Allen's whole team. Here are the full assignments: https://www.footballzebras.com/2023/01/nfl-assigns-officiating-crews-for-the-wild-card-playoffs/ Two user comments from the article: "January 9, 2023 at 11:00 pm Adrian Hill offul and Alex Kemp offul all the others are good officials I think Brad deserves a championship or superbowl hes been great this season" "January 10, 2023 at 3:42 pm okay- so why is brad allen getting a wild card buffalo game for the 3rd year in a row?"

Well, according to FinHeaven, the refs will be biased for Buffalo, as the NFL wants us to win the SB because of the Damar situation. So expect everything to go our way. I'll take them for their word.
