Bad drop there.

standardg60 · 16-01-2022 2:39am

Unreal interception

Foxtrol · 16-01-2022 2:48am

Interception was amazing but doesn't happen if you swap QBs - Jones' arm left that hang in the air which let the safety get across, it is the difference in an elite power from a QB. Having said that Agholor should have still grabbed it.

With that second score there by the Bills there is huge pressure now for the Patriots to get something from this drive. Unless something changes it looks like the Bills will score every time they get the ball - doubt a shootout is where Bill wanted to be

Foxtrol · 16-01-2022 3:24am

Patriots looking like they want to be anywhere else but playing right now

standardg60 · 16-01-2022 3:26am

Yep looking like a wipeout before halftime

adrian522 · 16-01-2022 3:39am

This is embarrassing from New England, its really bad. They look unprepared, no leadership in evidence, receivers dropping passes, no resistence on defense and I don't know what Jones expected to happen faking a spike there.

I was content to view this season as a success as I didn't expect the playoffs this year. But this spectacular December/January collapse takes a hell of a lot of shine off it. I'm off to bed.

adrian522 · 16-01-2022 4:03am

New England is still in a really good position, great coach, looks like a really good QB, decent roster and should be able to push on next season, tonight has been really disappointing though.

Foxtrol · 16-01-2022 4:27am

Wow, kicking a field goal down 24 is a decision... Seems like there has been no urgency at all from the Patriots tonight from their punting early onwards.

Agree with the others that they look decent going into next year but not that much cap space and guys they'll need to pay. Lots of good, not many stars to build around

eagle eye · 16-01-2022 5:11am

Well that was a tough night but in all honesty just making the playoffs was a great achievement with a rookie QB and a lot of inexperienced players.

I feel we need to fix the right side of the offensive line first and then try find a wide receiver. We are not that far off.

Bills looked exceptional tonight, when they play like that they are close to unbeatable. Josh Allen is a great QB.

Well that’s not a shock. Problematic is a nice way of putting it. There was long conferences after several plays when there was no need and as referenced the whistle on the bengals TD was the icing on the cake. Jerome boger has never stuck me as a referee fully in control of a game.

Foxtrol · 16-01-2022 7:49pm

Like the game last night, Eagles need to show something on this next drive or we can nearly put a fork in this one.

OL injuries huge for the Bucs going forward though. They seem blessed with OL health the last 2 years

I always get the impression that he is constanly confused and stumbles his words. Definitely the least authorative of the referees.

Looking at the box score of the Bills-Pats game, Bills hit seven touchdowns without a single FG, and didn't have a player that rushed or caught for over 100 yards. Knox had the most receptions with five.

Insane.

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 8:42pm

Well the defence has woken up at least towards the end of the half. I’m not sure what Devonta smith did to be barley targeted in 30 minutes of football.

cosatron · 16-01-2022 9:03pm

Hurts is poor today. Very inaccurate

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 9:09pm

Jalen hurts and jalen reagor should be made to walk home. **** useless.

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 9:18pm

Jalen hurts is a disaster.

Oat23 · 16-01-2022 9:21pm

This is the 2nd year in a row the extra NFC wild card team has been dicked in the expanded playoffs. The games just aren't fun to watch.

More doesn't always mean better.

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 9:22pm

Not that it would make any real difference but just bench hurts because he’s awful.

Liamalone · 16-01-2022 10:42pm

Hopefully this game will be a better contest!

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 10:47pm

That’s what I’m taking about San Fran.

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 11:00pm

That opening drive and TD was sexy.

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 11:04pm

FG Niners but kittle was wide open.

Podge_irl · 16-01-2022 11:11pm

Looking very good for the 9ers so far.

Don’t jinx it.

eagle eye · 16-01-2022 11:14pm

I don't understand what the Cowboys are at. The niners are playing with one high safety, they've attempted two passes over ten yards, one was caught for a first down, the second caught too but called back fur a penalty. Niners are very weak in the secondary, you gotta throw the ball deep a bunch to push them back.

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 11:19pm

10-0 Niners after first quarter.

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 11:36pm

TD cowboys 13-7.

Itssoeasy · 16-01-2022 11:42pm

FG Niners 16-7 late first half.

Itssoeasy · 17-01-2022 12:01am

That glare from the sun is hurting the cowboys.

Liamalone · 17-01-2022 12:18am

It's their own stadium, should be used to it's nuances. Decent viewing that half, a contest at least :)

Itssoeasy · 17-01-2022 12:21am

**** stupid penalty from the Niners.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 17-01-2022 12:22am

Sun shouldn't be an issue for most of second half with sunset soon. Unfortunate for Wilson, should've been a handy reception.

Itssoeasy · 17-01-2022 12:26am

Stupid rule over the scoreboard in Dallas. It’s not the Niners fault if the cowboys punter hits it.

eagle eye · 17-01-2022 12:26am

Dak has been very poor, it's the difference between the truly elite QB's and those not quite elite. There is pressure but you can't be upset and hurried by it like Dak is. You'd never see Brady, Rodgers or Mahomes doing what Dak is at.

Oat23 · 17-01-2022 12:27am

This staduim is so sh*te. The sun blinds the offense and the video board interferes with play. Two massive flaws despite spending over a billion building it.

Itssoeasy · 17-01-2022 12:29am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118487290#Comment_118487290

As was pointed out at the half time version report. Why was it built east-west ?

Itssoeasy · 17-01-2022 12:30am

Joey bosa is out for the game.

Oat23 · 17-01-2022 12:36am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118487298#Comment_118487298

Just put up shutters and it's solved. Jerry Jones seems to be very sensitive when it comes to his stadium though and has insisted several times in the past that the sun isn't a problem when it clearly is. Acknowledging that there is a problem now would hurt his ego.

ray Charles could tell you the sun is an issue.

INT Dallas. Oh SF i love ye.

Itssoeasy · 17-01-2022 12:40am

Oh deebo Samuel you special human being. TD niners.

The_Honeybadger · 17-01-2022 12:42am

Deebo Samuel is some weapon. that’s the game surely

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 17-01-2022 12:42am

Very poor from Dak.

eagle eye · 17-01-2022 12:44am

So much wrong with the Cowboys but it all starts with the animated head coach wagging his head like it's the players fault, head down, look of disgust on his face. That's not helping his team.

Itssoeasy · 17-01-2022 12:53am

Wide open miss.

Oat23 · 17-01-2022 12:54am

Trevon Diggs getting a 1st team AP nod makes a mockery of the accolade. Burned badly again but Jimmy G missed the throw.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero · 17-01-2022 12:56am

I know Diggs had a phenomenol season with picks but it was absurd him being first team All-Pro. There's easily 10 CBs better than him. Iirc he's in the top 10 DBs that have given away the most yards this season too. When/if the picks dry up he'll sitting on the bench.

Itssoeasy · 17-01-2022 12:57am

23-7 Niners after three quarters. Hold the line San Fran please.

eagle eye · 17-01-2022 1:02am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118487392#Comment_118487392

He's an extremely talented rookie, he is going to get better and better over the next couple of years.

I agree he shouldn't have been all-pro. JC Jackson wasn't even a consideration by all accounts.

Mr. Guappa · 17-01-2022 1:04am

Ridiculous amount of sloppy penalties from the Cowboys. Well-coached teams don't do that.
