The Football Thread
It's playoff time, boys. Nerds and trolls are not welcome here. I don't care if you don't like sports; I've never met a fun or interesting person that has said that in my life.
First and foremost, my team is an embarrassment that need not be mentioned at the moment. I can barely cope while typing this. Let's get this thing rollin' by posting some game predictions and the SB matchup we want to see:
Seattle @ Atlanta - Falcons.
Houston @ NE - Lol, good luck. Pats will win unfortunately.
GB @ Dallas - Cowboys.
Pit @ KC - Chiefs.
SB I want to see is KC versus Dallas or Atlanta.
I hope the Falcons win when this game starts and I stand by my prediction, but I can easily see Seattle burying them with their ground game. Falcons need to get points up early because I don't see their offense being able to win from behind against Seattle's secondary while they're murdering the clock with Rawls.

@fradddd: There was a time when I could name just about every starting player on at least half of the teams in the league. You just watch and read, man. Doesn't take much investment if you watch the games regularly.
@greatbolshy: I respect your fans and players. Loyal as hell, but the organization as a whole has become a disgrace. Something serious needs to change in that building and then y'all need some consistency. Seems like every move is a short-term attempt at a fix rather than a decision made with continuity in mind.
@tiesandbowties: They'll probably make it there, yeah, but I'm not that confident in them winning it because they're pretty banged up. Atlanta looks dangerous and the Packers, while just as injured, seem to be playing a lot better in my opinion. Next week will be one of the few weeks where I actually root for Pittsburgh. Hope they destroy Brady.
we all know deep down inside the pats are gonna win another superbowl
belichick kills
@cannoneer: it's ok. pretty much every browns fan this year just watched them as if it were a comedy. we're all just grateful that ohio is having a really good year in sports aside from the browns
How do you guys know how good every single team is gonna do? I'm not sure if I have ANY hobby where I know that much extensive statistical information, both quantitative and qualitative.
MAYBE on the subject of heavy metal...
@greatbolshy: Ravens.
Might seem a bit unappreciative to say and add some salt to a wound if you really are a Cleveland fan haha.
"First and foremost, my team is an embarrassment that need not be mentioned at the moment."
you a browns fan, too?
That ending... I don't even know what to say.
@zoglinemusic: Shoulder pads pulled out. No flag. Lmao.
@zoglinemusic: How is this happening?...
Let's go, Dallas!
i want dallas to win it all
@zoglinemusic: His wife is tougher than him. Princess Brady cries to the refs every time he gets hit. Suppose he's a good player, though. Hah.
Edit: Seems I gave Seattle's secondary way too much credit in this one. They got exposed all game long. Matt Ryan for MVP. I'm one of the few people amongst my friends and family that picked Atlanta. Feels good, man.
