2021-2022 NFL Pick Em/Discussion Megathread

[OSR stands with Israel]

What an upset

[Thunder98 🇮🇱 🤝 🇵🇸]

Congrats Bengals!

Finally a Super bowl without Brady or the Chiefs!

[AelroseB]

I have underestimated the Bengals every game this playoff season--the same thing I did to the 2007 Giants.
In my guts, I know I'm nuts, but I'm picking Bengals over the Rams in the SB.

Lol, the Bengals aren't beating Rams or Niners in the Superbowl, my gut says they don't Pay MAHOMES scored 3 pts in the second half that won't happen again

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Let's give it up for Stafford he is the real MVP of the League he now has no excuse not to win a title Brady, Rodgers and Mahomes are out, or Jimmie Garropollo

Niners or Rams are gonna open up as TD Favs, and they have a chance to repeat

Cali hasn't won a Superbowl since 1996 with Niners and Rams were in St Louis in 99

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Kittle is doing his best impersonation of Kelce Rams down to Niners as usual

Bengals vs Rams it will be, indeed!

[Thunder98 🇮🇱 🤝 🇵🇸]

 lol the 49ers suck!

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

lol the 49ers suck!

It doesn't really matter if Niners won anyways, but Warriors are gonna win the NBA Finals this year

Lol they, Niners lost Richard Sherman to Bucs but Stafford is the MVP of the League

[BoiseBoy]

Welp I just cracked my phone screen. At least the Chiefs got shut out.

[Never Made it to Graceland]

Why do you always bring up the NBA when talking about football?

Anyway Kupp is the most important member of the Rams' offense, not Stafford.

Is there some kind of trophy for finishing last?

[JGibson]

The two teams who are in the Super Bowl are the two I don't want in: Bengals and Rams. Not rooting for either one.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

I am so proud of Niners and Rams the Big three are out Rodgers, Brady and Mahomes Stafford has no excuse not to win, Bengals are a Pro bowl team but Stafford if he wins is a Hall of Famer, Bengals are gonna be TD Underdogs

The Niners got rid of Rodgers and Rodgers had the Rams number and Rams lost to them in Playoffs last yr

[Never Made it to Graceland]

I know you're a Steelers fan, but the Bengals have been hapless for so many years it's hard to feel passionate about rooting against them in the playoffs. It's better than seeing Brady or Mahomes or Rodgers in again. I suspect that will change in the next few years as Burrow becomes a major thorn in the side of the Steelers and the whole division, though.

[Sestak]

Well, damn. The Trey Era has officially begun as of today, I guess.

Pulling for the Bengals but it’ll be a tough one.

I correctly predicted LA winning against SF. I would have preferred to be wrong (Odell does not deserve a ring) but that's a second victory for me.

Lol Rams have Von Miller, Ramsey and Aaron Donald sack leaders you see what they did on that final play my, users underestimate Von Miller he sacked Cam Newton in Superbowl 59, anyways Rams are TD Favs

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

It's funny that Kelce chocked again in prime time just like the Super wl he is a Pro bowl QB but he's no better than Kupp, Gronk and Little he isn't all that Great eventhough he acts like he is

[Meclazine for Israel]

Let's Go Bengals!

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

The Bengals are TD Underdogs and Chiefs defense don't have Von Miller

Burrow is likely to get sacked just like Cam Newton did in Superbowl 50 by Von Miller, the Rams would likely have lost to Chiefs but the Bengals are making their first trip to PLAYOFFS and Rams have to play someone

Again Von Miller sacked Jimmie Garapolo on the final play of the game and save it for the Rams, users aren't paying attention same thing will happen to Burrow

[JGibson]

I am a Steelers fan who rightly loathes the Bengals, and I also HATE Stan Kroenke with a flying passion for what he did to the city of St. Louis, stabbing the loyal St. Louis Rams fans and the city in the back by promising the team will stay then renege on that promise to go back to LA. The two teams in it put this STL-area Steelers (ex-Rams) fan in a quagmire that I didn't want.

[bagelman]

I may be a Browns fan but I'll be rooting for the Bengals this year.
