Chiefs vs Steelers being moved to Sunday night because of storms.

Rare that you ever see a playoff game moved.

Hard to believe moving it to the evening is going to help deal with the weather better

more time to clear the roads

Seattle and Atlanta.

Who you want to come to Dallas next weekend?

I don't think Jerry will be making any money next weekend.

Hoping for good games, but kinda think both of todays games will be runaways.

Atlanta wins by 10-14 I think. New England might win by 3 or 4 tds, especially if ASSweiler throws a bunch of picks (likely)

 

[Midswat]

The New England game will be boring. But I think Seattle Atlanta might be good.

Either way I'm looking forward to kickoff.

 

[ThoughtExperiment]

Yeah, the late game will probably suck, but I'm pretty pumped about Seattle-ATL.

 

[Midswat]

Seahawks RB C.J. Prosise (shoulder) won't play vs Falcons. If the Seahawks advance, he'll be available next week.

More potentially bad injury news for the #Packers: CB Damarious Randall was added to the injury report with a foot injury. He’s questionable.


JFC the Packers are a mash unit. Meanwhile we're completely healthy. Changing my pick in The Who you got thread.

1st, just because guys are out there, doesn't mean "completely healthy"

2nd, Nelson caught 1 pass last week before getting hurt. Rodgers threw for 362 yds and 4 tds and no picks (and I believe all the tds after Nelson went out). So how much did they really miss him?

Other than Nelson and Randall, who else is GB "missing"?

 

[Midswat]

Look up Rodgers to Nelson stats over their 7 game win streak. It's impressive. Nelson out is a huge break for us.

Mindless homer

And that was against what was supposed to be a really good defense.

Glad he isn't playing, but I'm just saying it didn't seem to impact them any last week and I doubt anyone would argue that he was facing a lesser defense than ours.

And that was against what was supposed to be a really good defense.

Exactly, that was my point.

Here's one reason for hesitation in projecting the Falcons as a Super Bowl contender. They are one of nine teams in NFL history to score at least 540 points in a season. None of the other eight have won a Super Bowl, per ESPN Stats & Information. Often, teams that rely on high-scoring offenses hit a wall against playoff-caliber defenses. I'm not convinced the Seahawks can provide that wall today, but history is not on the Falcons' side.

 

[ThoughtExperiment]

Health is a massive advantage for us. Every player on the roster practiced this week, which basically never happens this time of year. I bet we're one of the healthier teams ever at this point of the season.

How funny no one on the Packers social media side is talking about Dez. It's all about how they must stop Zeke.

Doesn't surprise me. Few realize or remember that on the fateful 4th down play 2 years ago, GB double covered Witten and singled up Dez. They're not afraid of Dez at all and neither are their fans.

But they have very good reason to fear Zeke especially since he carved them up for over 150 yards last time.
