    It’s their money.

    So, the Glazers own Man U as well. Should they have been picking up the premiership trophy too.

    Love him or hate him you just got to admire greatness.

    No argument of the man's greatness but he was absolutely appalling for stretches today. He is pretty low on the list of reasons why they won that game, much of the list being Packers mess ups.

    Precisely why the next fortnight will be unbearable.

    Kwvin king has cost us a game.

    Are you still fine with the Packers getting practically no output from their first two draft picks?

    Looks like they could have done with help on defense, OL, and WR rather than a guy sitting at home and another with 3 carries.

    What a fcuk up

    Did the Ref call a td!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,385 ✭✭✭✭DDC1990


    Wow. That is a huge error.

    Nice start for the Bills.

    Amazing how so many teams over the years just kept ****ing up against Brady. Sure he's just along for the ride really.

    That was a bizarre sequence. Extra point is no good so 9-0 buffalo.

    The rule around forward progress drives me mental. You can catch a ball just on or over the line to get your next set of downs and even if the defence drive you back to your own goal line with a tackle you still get first down. Surely it should be where you're ruled down by contact. Its so open to refereeing errors.

    It depends on whether the receiver attempts another football move....if he does, he’s ruled down where he’s downed. If he does not he gets forward progress.

    You're a Patriots fan I think eagle eye, how do you feel watching this.... Bittersweet or delighted for Brady?
    I'm delighted for Brady but it's not the same. I'm a Patriots fan first and always but I could never wish anything but good for Tom Brady so long as he is not playing against the Patriots.

    I kinda like it, I don't really want to see mauls in the NFL. I also feel like it would give a massive advantages to Defences given their number advantage at the point of contact.



    Although it would be fun seeing Aaron Donald pick up every RB in the league bar Henry and carry them back to their own 1 yard line.

    TD KC. Jesus so far today I’ve seen ads for discovery + and now paramount +.

    I've seen plenty of questionable calls where the ball didn't appear to break the plane but they were given as first downs because the ref said so. With the milliseconds involved its too open to a refs interpretation


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,546 ✭✭✭Masked Man


    Good form on the suplex there.

    Presuming Rodgers wins the MVP as expected, it'll now be 21 years since the regular season MVP last won the Super Bowl!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,473 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Chiefs got away with that punch before the Hacksaw Jim Duggan move on Diggs (thank you Tony Romo).

    Then again, I can't remember a team getting so many non-calls going in their favour.

    I’ve never seen hacksaw duggan do a suplex like that.

    This could very easily turn into a blowout


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,299 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    TD KC. That ball was coming loose from his hands and he was lucky the goal line was there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,890 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    We're motoring now on both sides of the ball, settled nicely after a rubbish start.

    Chiefs have had most of their problems in the 2nd half after blowing away the opposition in the first. I wouldnt call it yet.


  • Posts: 7,712 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Was excited to see more of the Bills offence but they look average enough tonight anyway. Allen is very wayward.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,890 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Could've been a pick there, the defense is playing very well right now.

    Given the bills got gifted their touchdown, nothing since the opening drive. No running game. Will do well to get back in front.
